Quick Post
Sorry for the quick post. But I'm on set with my Blackberry, so I thought I'd answer a very oft asked question: Is there new music I can recommend in addition to what's on the soundtrack?
Here are my 3 favorite new artists and their web sites:
I'm very proud to call all 3 of them my friends. I think they're gonna be huge once the world discovers them. So go check out their sites if you get a chance.
Friday is a big day; the films first major expansion to new cities. I hope you all enjoy...

I'm first! Hey Zach!

Hi Zach!
New Cities! Awesome..
*goes to check out music*
:D
Posted by: Jessie | Aug 5, 2004 10:17:22 PM
Zach,
Movies like Garden State make people want to become artists. Great work, and I can't wait to see everything else you put out there.
Posted by: Dominic Arnone | Aug 5, 2004 10:19:19 PM
Zach, this looks like a great film. Can't wait to see it. The trailer is perfect. Best of luck to you on this.
Posted by: Andy | Aug 5, 2004 10:21:33 PM
Hey! I saw a sneak preview of this movie in Chicago, and it was just really compelling and touching, and just had so so much going for it, especially as a debut film. Reminded me a bit of The Graduate though a bit more on the optimistic-side (I'm sure you get that a lot). The screening was totally full, and I think they had to turn people away so I'm sure it'll do really well this weekend in the expanded cities. Good luck with all that, and once again, I really enjoyed your film and hope to see great work from you in the future.

Mad props on what looks like an awesome movie and more props for exposing struggling musicians. Great taste.
Posted by: Zach | Aug 5, 2004 10:28:04 PM
this film has got to open in more cities soon. i can't wait another week!
i thought for sure i would see it tommorow. alas. no.
oh the suspense.
the preview taunts me.

Hey Zach...I've been following Garden State since the Sundance buzz, and it looks like tomorrow is the day in Toronto to FINALLY get to see it! Congratulations on all the success and publicity (Spin, Entertainment Weekly, Letterman, all over TV, etc.)...I'm in University for Film Production right now, and I'm sure this movie will stand as one of the year's best, as well as a great inspiration to all those aspiring directors/screenwriters out there...If you ever wanna give me some much appreciated tips and pointers, track me down.....Until then, how do I marry Natalie Portman and have her children? Just wondering...Thanks for the bloggin'!
Posted by: Jd Findlay | Aug 5, 2004 10:32:52 PM
Zach,
I can not wait to see Garden State. I've been waiting/wanting to see this film ever since I first saw the trailer =). It looks brilliant.
Anyways, thank you so much for making these posts and what not. It's way awesome!
=)

Hi Zach! It's me again. Well, just wanted to say those artists are great. It would be wonderful if they became more well-known. I'm sure many would like their music. Alright, goodbye!

Zach,
The movie looks real good, can't fuckin wait to see it. I run and own an arts and entertainment paper here in Boston, hope you're coming to the area and doing interviews.

PS - Your exude sexiness.

soundtrack looks wunderful. great selections! but missing a little elliott smith :)
Posted by: nora | Aug 5, 2004 10:36:54 PM
Unfortunately I still have to wait another week before it hits Dallas. Oh well, i'm sure it's worth the wait.
ZB, I have to say, you are one cool celebrity. You seem geniunely connected w/ your fans. Very cool.

Posted by: Stephen | Aug 5, 2004 10:37:02 PM
YOU exude sexiness. goodnite.
Posted by: Chelsea | Aug 5, 2004 10:38:32 PM
Zach,
I simply do not know where to begin, so I will keep it simple:
GARDEN STATE is a beautiful, deeply truthful film...you so completely encapsulated the disconnectedness of the late 20s that so many of us experience until we find, build, or borrow or new home.
I'm very much looking forward to whatever your next project may be, and I wish you nothing but the very best success.
And btw, should you find yourself feeling a little Julia Roberts'ed in Barney's or Bloomie's or wherever, let me know. I'm enough of a fashionista to make *sure* that salespeople are there asap :)
Be well, Peace, and Thank you for the gift that GARDEN STATE is...

I haven't seen your movie yet because its not out in San Jose yet, but I'll be sure to see it when it does.
On another note, I was wondering if you helped choose some the songs in "Scrubs" because some of the songs and artists on the "Garden State" soundtrack are the same as the ones on "Scrubs".
Arltie, thanks for putting in so much effort to promote your movie!
Posted by: Hannie | Aug 5, 2004 10:40:58 PM
I've heard songs by Gavin DeGraw and he's great so I definitely plan to check out the other artists.
Can't wait to see your movie!! I'm sure it's gonna do well at the box office!
Have a good weekend!

Oh, and music suggestions, if you're ever bored and aren't under their influence already : broken social scene, neutral milk hotel, modest mouse and interpol....

I'm going on a "voyage" to see you're movie Sat, cant wait.
Posted by: Jason O'Malley | Aug 5, 2004 10:46:07 PM
Dear Zach,
just wanted to report to you and tell you how much your film has stuck with me. It gives me a lot of hope as an artist and as a person. I feel like there are millions of guys like us, regular guys with this big ball of something...something inside our gut that is so hard to get out sometimes and is so hard to figure out why it's there and is just so hard trying to translate what it's trying to say...and you're movie and your character is such a tribute to us. I don't know, but the wandering artists of the world, the people who are only sure of how confused they are, they have something now.
Thanks for giving me that
Posted by: Jesse | Aug 5, 2004 10:49:25 PM
ive been dying to see this movie for about 5 months now. something about it and the trailers and the songs, especially "let go", that drew me into it.
its 1:47am, and im staying up becuase im watching you, zach, on last call with carson daly. carson annoys the shit out of me, but youre great.
the movie comes out tomorrow(or today) in my dear town of boston. at first i thought it was only playing in NY and LA, and was actually half-way to planning my trip to NY just to see it.
anyways, youre great, and im sure the movie is wonderful. keep up the good work.
Posted by: kate kan | Aug 5, 2004 10:49:37 PM
I had to delay seeing Garden State from tomorrow until Sunday, in order to see it with the friend that turned me into a huge fan. I can't wait, I'm getting jumpy just thinking about it. Oh, and just saw your appearance on Carson Daly. Normally, I wouldn't watch Carson, but... well, you get the picture.
Posted by: Justus Perry | Aug 5, 2004 10:51:57 PM
Gavin rules!!!
i can't wait to see the movie tomorrow in the OC. :)
Posted by: Lisa | Aug 5, 2004 10:52:44 PM
Hi Zach! I'm Era. I checked out your film in Maplewood the day after it opened. Everyone said you were there the day of, I'm sorry I missed it. Garden State is phenomenal. I just wanted to say thanks for giving everyone this great film and sharing your dream with us.
And you have incredible musical taste. I'm so glad that other people now get the chance to listen to more Remy Zero, The Shins, Frou Frou and The Postal Service (or at least the cover of it). I'm sure everyone would love to keep reading your recommendations. Thanks again and have a great day!
