I think that Episode II has the POSSIBILITY to be the best Star Wars movie yet. It will be hard to do, but I think it can be done. From the trailers, it looks so awesome. I can't wait to see it. And hopefully, George Lucas doesn't let us down, because I am expecting a really, really awesome movie!! I am sure it will be cool. I could just ramble on and on about it untill it comes out!

If the script i got my grubby hands on is even half true this movie WILL rock! Even thought the script was missing a lot of detail as to descriptions on dress, and the surroundings the storyline was cool. Add in all the special effects Lucas has planned and this could turn out to be an awsome movie. But then again I have an over active imagination and what i'm imagining could be better then lucas and i might find his work... boring. But god I hope not!

I think that whether or not you enjoy a movie, has a lot to do with your expectations. When I went to see TPM, I hadn't even seen the trailers for it. I wasn't online yet either. I had no idea what to expect-- only that it was SW and of course would rock!! And I loved it! Now, I hear that a lot of people were disappointed in TPM because it wasn't what they expected, blah, blah, blah....... and on and on the list goes. I intend on going to see Ep II, being blown away, and loving it like every other SW movie no matter what! Ranting over.

Well, I did a film shoot w/ David Prowse last summer, I was sort of his dresser, BUT, I was also the person who made the costumes for him( he was amazed that I had the length exactly right, 'til I explained that he's the same ht. as my best friend, another costumier),he was really easy to work around, he said he'd enjoy working with me again sometime, and dropped me off home after the shoot was over in the morning. If you could explain how I could probably post a couple of photos 'cos someone e-mailed them to me. James Earl Jones, Anthony Daniels,Mark Hamill. I plan to go seek out Liam Neeson some night soon. I have to check w/ some friends in London and see if Ian McDiarmid will be at the theatre when I'm there,they are part of the rep group and promised to introduce me next time were both there. A big australian guy, who was N Gunray & 6 other characters in Ep.I came in to the costume shop last summer a few times, very nice guy, autographed a few pics for everybody, a tad bigger than David was even. I've been doing the SW fan thing since the 1st showing back in '77, so it adds up over time, plus I work in a B'way theatre at night, so I meet a lot of people that way, that's how I met George Lucas, he came to see the show at my theatre ("The Producers") I'm the head usher there, it was funny, I saw him, thought, "gee that looks like ...." , "oh my, he's wearing a blue plaid shirt, that is...." "Good Evening!!!!!" looked at the ticket, sure enuff, "G Lucas" Escorted his party, something I only do for those I consider VIP, brief chat, went back said to the company manager, "Guess WHO I just seated?" she goes "Ron Howard!!" they were together, and I never even noticed Ron Howard, can you believe it, well I never looked up, and he's nowhere near as tall as Ron Howard. There have been some others as well, although I'd have to think about it, I seem to have a knack for it, but I usually forget until something reminds me, then I go, Oh yeah, I met this person at what ever the event or play. Well unfortunatly, I never got to meet Alec Guinness, that would have been the ultimate because I thought he was the most amazing actor of all time, from the time I can remember, going back to his silly films like "Take the Money And Run", and on to his brilliant ones like "Lawrence" and "Kwai" And of course "Star Wars"

Actually, I have Peter's and the Australian guy's, which is illegible so I'm having a hard time remembering his name, something w/ a J. I don't often ask for autographs, mostly because I'm either working w/ them or am at work when I meet them. Sometimes it just changes the whole tone of a meeting, but other times it's a good way to start a conversation. Sometimes I just don't have a pen!

Liam is Quite easy to find these days, he's appearing in "The Crucible" at the Virginia Theatre on Broadway in NYC, it's a limited run til about the beggining of June. I have to convince the house manager to let me work a night, it's a sister theatre to my house the ST. James Theatre, and he was my house manager for a couple of years, that way I can get paid to see it, and not be penalised for missing a night of work. Due to our contract I can only miss so many days in a certain amount of time.

But I wanna meet him not just see him lol. I'd settle for just a quick chit chat autograph or not. I heard he got a little banged up a while back in a car crash and wanna see how he's dealing with it.

Me too,the stage door is a good place, accessible on the street,I remember watching him sign tons of autographs when he did his last B'way show,it was across the street from us and he was always visible above the crowd, He's a TALL dude!
