I'll get you an autograph one day.
Meaning...
One from Matt to Ben.
Again, trying very hard to just be casually funny.
It's falling very flat.

You're not nearly as busy as you think.
Or you're a very nice person.
Sending you all the best always.
XXB and then 87.
Like the year 87.
There's the apostrophe, the reverse apostrophe 87.
Which I believe...
my deep reading lo these many years of premiere magazine, movie line, page six, what have you, that is a reference to when Ben and Blake were doing promotional interviews for the town, Ben would tell a story about realizing how old he was.
upon learning that Blake Lively was born in 1987 and thus was too young to have seen Good Will Hunting, the film that made Matt and Ben major stars.
And I believe that 87 is a very deep inside reference that if I'm Jennifer Lopez, I'm looking at this email and I'm like, this bitch has some fucking nerve.
Some fucking nerve.
Now, the executives at Sony were none too impressed with Blake resting control of this movie.
And in sum and substance, I'm not going to read all the emails because we've had a very, this is like an 18th century epistolary novel right here, you know, but they were basically like, she's unhirable now.
