CELEBRATION III - THE BEST WEEKEND EVER

[jedimara77]

God, what an awesome weekend. I cannot explain how fabulous it was. It was the best weekend ever. I met so many cool people and saw so many cool things. I have been indoctrinated into the con world. I need a costume. I decided to be Hoth Leia (which will be FABULOUS at DragonCon! :P ).

Anyway, here are pics, behind a cut because there are so many!



Oh I am an evil girl.



Heh.



GUH!



SWEET!



A baby Imperial! Alli and Nick, you guys need to do this!



Beat box Boba!



Hrm....



The nightly.net group at Buca di Beppo. That night was so cool!



Yay for clonetroopers!



Even Darth Tater wore my crown.



Daniel Logan (young Boba Fett) hit on me. Lol.



Elvis Trooper!!!



Biggs!



How cool is that??? Grevious! There's actually a guy in there!



The GL line, after we finally got inside.



Savvy?



Boba Fett!!!



It's Jorg Sacul!



We finally got in the show. Yay for yellow wristbands!



This is just too funny.



I'm showing off my Obi-Wan mini lightsaber master replica and my C3 Vader figure!



Luminara Unduli.



Me and my roomies!



HA!



Rain+lines=yuck.



Admiral Ozzel.



M&M Ewoks!



Barriss Ofee.



HOW HOT IS THIS???



Standing in line all night made me tired. :(



It made my friends tired, too.



Admiral Motti.



Mara Jade!



We took over everywhere!



TIM ZAHN! YAY!!!! He rocks.



Yay for kids with lightsabers!



"Aren't you a little short for a stormtrooper?"



We have crowns. They should be scared.



We are so sacriligious.



The Vader Viper!



THE MAKER HIMSELF! WOOOOO!!!!!!!!



GUH.

Before I go, Nick Gillard made a sweet comment in his presenation (which I didn't get to see, but I heard about it from my friends). He said in the ROTS script, it said, "Epic lightsaber battle ensues." That's it. When he asked GL for more info, Lucas said, "It needs to be about 10-15 minutes long and travel over half a mile. GUH!!!!!!!!!

I'm gonna make a post describing the whole trip later on. Right now, I need sleep. I still haven't caught up from the "Night of George Lucas."

Maybe Daniel Logan thought you were his age. Ah-HA!

P.S. I hate you more for meeting Tim Zahn than I do the Anakin lookalike. I'm so sad.

[jedimara77.livejournal.com]

Tim Zahn was awesome! Unfortunately I didn't get to see his panel, although I read about it and his new books sound awesome.

O.M.G

Wish I had gone. Wow that young Boba Fett is hot! Wish I could have gone. Lol. Is that the actual actor or just some guy?

[ewanspotter.livejournal.com]

Yeah, that's Daniel Logan all right, just a few years older. You should see Anakin now. lol

[golden-nugget.livejournal.com]

Wow he is hot lmao...

Hows Anakin look? -sigh-

hot men every where lol

[ewanspotter.livejournal.com]

Ah man, I just found a good shot of him at the Celebration III message boards, but I'm off the site now. It'll be too hard to find again. Sorry.

He's not bad though. I mean, definitely not the little boy we remember. He was on the recent Star Wars Vanity Fair cover. Not the best picture of him actually, but hey. I do think Logan is a little better looking, but who am I to judge?

[jedimara77.livejournal.com]

Daniel Logan said he was almost 18. Jake's gotta be about 16 now.

[christmasjedi.livejournal.com]

Daniel is SUCH a cutie. He knows he's hot, and he likes the girls. We talked to him at DragonCon when we gave him a pin and he was adorable. I think Lori and I were a little too tall for him to hit on though, lol!

[jedimara77.livejournal.com]

Oh, btw, I met Lori this weekend! I don't think she knows who I am, but she seemed nice nonetheless, and had a cool uniform!

[ewanspotter.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I think he was born in 89...

[starbuck92.livejournal.com]

Okay, first off - what's up with the BK crowns? LOL.

How tall is Daniel Logan now?

Admiral Ozzel with a bowtie! Why is he poking your boob? *g*

I find it hilarious that the background pic of Admiral Motti is him getting choked by Vader...yet in person he's all smiles.

The Vader Viper - sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet! Any idea who owns that?

THE MAKER! THE MAKER!

[jedimara77.livejournal.com]

Daniel's probably around 6 feet tall, seeing how much taller he is than me. He was really a sweetheart.

I'm not sure what Michael Sheard was doing. LOL.

Yeah, there's actually an interesting story about Richard LeParmentier that I'll post later....

They're supposed to be giving away the Vader Viper in a contest open to Cingular customers. Which I am. :D

THANK THE MAKER! :D

[starbuck92.livejournal.com]

Daniel's probably around 6 feet tall, seeing how much taller he is than me.

Wow, that's crazy! I can still vividly see him having to look UP to Ewan... now he's probably the same height.

They're supposed to be giving away the Vader Viper in a contest open to Cingular customers.

Ooooo. Nice!

[jedimara77.livejournal.com]

Forgot - Burger King had a booth in the Exhibit Hall and they were giving away the crowns. They'll be having kids meal toys soon, and they look so cute!

[starbuck92.livejournal.com]

Hm. I'll have to find a BK around here. I haven't seen any... and now that I think of it, I don't think I've seen any commercials. Jack in the Box is the big thing here.

[jedimara77.livejournal.com]

If you can't find any, let me know if you want me to pick up some of the toys. There's a lot of them, and they're really adorable. I'll probably pick up the whole set. :)

[starbuck92.livejournal.com]

Ooo, I went to BK.com and used their restaurant locator to see if there were any in town, and it turns out there is one down the street! However, I've never seen it! Then again, I don't eat BK much, so I guess I probably just never noticed it before. Do you know when all the promotions are supposed to start?

[jedimara77.livejournal.com]

No, I don't. I was trying to find out online, but couldn't find a date. :p

[starbuck92.livejournal.com]

I saw the Yoda-Diet Pepsi commercial for the first time last night. At first I thought it was BK when I saw Yoda doing a mind trick on the guy and stealing his cheeseburger and fries. :)

[jedimara77.livejournal.com]

Bad Yoda! Doesn't he know that's using the dark side? :p

[ewanspotter.livejournal.com]

Barriss?! Holy crap, it *is* her. Was Mara pregnant? And finally... the dressed up babies? *dies*

[jedimara77.livejournal.com]

Yup, Shannon McRandle was very pregnant. Someone suggested I tell her to name her kid Ben. :grin:

I'm so doing that to my kids!

[ewanspotter.livejournal.com]

Someone suggested I tell her to name her kid Ben

Yeah, like she hasn't heard that one a billion times. ;D

[ewanspotter.livejournal.com]

I forgot to ask this earlier. Any chance you remember seeing a *girl* Mandalorian? She was probably beeing followed by a Jedi or two...

[jedimara77.livejournal.com]

Hm, don't seem to remember that. I saw a Zam that was really awesome.

[loriel-eris.livejournal.com]

Love the photos, especially with your comments! *g*

[jedimara77.livejournal.com]

Thanks! I'll post more about the actual weekend later. :)

[loriel-eris.livejournal.com]

Looking forward to it. :)

[christmasjedi.livejournal.com]

Great photos! I see lots of Andy, and I know all the celebs, but which one is Nathan??

Are you going to DragonCon this year??

[jedimara77.livejournal.com]

Nathan is the one on the right in the group photo during the George line - the one who looks completely hammered. ;) The other one in that group is Em, or Padawan Learner, who was a complete sweatheart. (So was Andy, for that matter. I had a blast with him!)

And I fully intend on going to Dragon Con. A bunch of my friends are going, so I think I'll tag along with them. It's too bad Smitha will be in Japan, but I'm looking forward to spending more time with Emily. Are you planning on going? It would be awesome to meet you!

[nasturtium.livejournal.com]

I just can't get over the picture of us all looking exhausted in line, and then there's Nathan who looks completely and totally wired.

[jedimara77.livejournal.com]

Especially considering only ten or fifteen minutes earlier, he was nearly falling over on top of Andy!
