Let's start with our first and possibly greatest, the Oscar Good Luck Pins we made for The Lord of The Ring's crew, commissioned by TheOneRing.net.

The pins were worn by various cast and crew members at the awards ceremony during the three years the Lords of The Ring trilogy was up for Oscars. We were all screaming the night Peter Jackson accepted the Oscar for Best Picture and Best Director not only because we loved the movies so much, but because a little piece of BJS Inc was up there with him.
Last year we were thrilled and delighted, some of us to the point of screaming and jumping up and down, to find out another talented director liked our work. On June 1 2009, Guillermo del Toro, director of Hell Boy and Pan's Labyrinth appeard on the Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson wearing our Miskatonic University Class Ring. Not only did Mr. del Toro show the ring to Mr. Ferguson, but they both geeked out over it.

We also were thrilled out of our minds when a little show called The Big Bang Theory purchased three of our 24k. gold plated Gollum Gold One Rings TM which were featured in the episode "The Precious Theory".

We also had a pair of rings purchased last year from the props department for The Soccer's Apprentice. Whether the rings will make it into the film has yet to be seen, but keep your eyes peeled for the following two rings.

So there you have it, a couple brushes of fame with the big and small screen. They have made our little geek hearts leap with joy.
I LOVE The Big Bang Theory! That episode made me pee my pants. I thought about you, but had no idea it was one of yours. Hooray for Badali Jewelry!
