November 18 - An excerpt from Tobey's recent Roughcut interview: You're sort of on the verge of some real stardom here. Have you prepared yourself for it? Tobey: Yeah. I've thought about it and I don't know. I mean, I'm just going to do the best I can with that. It's just really interesting, to me, the whole idea of fame and I think it can be a real test of somebody, of who they are. You know, 'cause some strange things happen. I've seen some peculiar things as far as a person just living their life, and these things get thrown into it. I think some of it's strange. Some of it looks very appealing and I'm just going to go and do the best I can. Does it give you pause? Especially after watching your friend Leo's experience. You could easily make a movie like Titanic where the wave just comes? Tobey: Yeah, but how could you anticipate? You can't. Tobey: I don't know. Yeah, I think about it. I don't know. Each decision is an individual decision. And I'll see when that comes. And, yeah, I'm a little, you know, wary of it, but I think it's manageable and you can keep yourself intact. But sometimes I think that people, you know, get inappropriate.
