Pinky's Fandance - Failed Pictures Edition 2

Welcome to another look at some failed picture opportunities....Not only is Crispin Glover (aka McFly) closing his eyes, I'm apparently mid-sentence. It's shocking that I was the one taking the picture - shoddy, shoddy work indeed.Once again, I have no ability to zoom out my lens and could barely get a smidge of both mine and Mary Steenbergen's faces in the picture.This picture cracks me up because my friend Jared (to the left with the beard) really really wanted a picture with Quinton Tarantino, but Quinton told everyone he "only took pictures with directors" (what-ever). To feel like we were pulling a fast one, I had Jared stand by Quinton and then I snapped this picture. I know, I know, it's not the best - but they are in the same frame together. :) I didn't think there could actually be a less-than-perfect picture of Christie Brinkley, but apparently my camera skills weren't doing anyone any favors this day. I was in the middle of saying, "I think you're the most beautiful woman in the entire world" when I snapped this oh-so-flattering picture of us both. Thank goodness I ran into her later and did a re-take.Oh, look. I cut off someone else's head. Of course, this is right after I spit out some embarrassing phrase like, "I think you're fantastic" or something (which is true, but do I need to sound like a blathering idiot?). Robert Carlyle is a class act, though, so he didn't hold it against me.Now, I actually don't think this was totally my fault, as Cuba Gooding Jr. was in a big rush and therefore impossible to take a picture of when he wasn't in motion. Why do I look blurrier than him?
Oh, and in case you were wondering if I only mess up my pictures, the answer is a resounding no. This is my friend Emil and Uma Thurman. Yeah, really. It's Uma. Nice that I could take a picture of her lips. Can you believe this was Emil's very first celebrity picture? I should be ashamed of myself.
