Congratulations. You must be very proud for putting that together all by yourself. It's funny that you say I am the only one who is negative. I have read many other posts from people who are unhappy with a lot of the announcements.
See, unlike yourself, my universe doesn't revolve around Star Wars. I actually have, um, what do people call that... Oh, A LIFE. I have spent a lot of money planning this LA trip and I personally am disappointed in what CIV is offering. That's my opinion. If you don't like it, deal with it.
If this is your first Celebration, I hope you have a great time. I went to CIII and it was a lot of fun. I met a lot of cool people and have a lot of great memories.
I honestly don't think you wanted to write what you did. I have posted here since 2004 and this is the first time you have EVER responded to something I said. So, tell whoever told you to post this they lack courage, character and integrity. Hiding behind you made you both look silly.

Enough. Your negativity is well known, pwinkelspi. You have no problem with mocking other people's opinions, but when they take exception to yours, you find offense. I'm asking the both of you to stop now. It does no good.

as someone new to this thread I just figured I say what others had be to thinking. he just stood out as a constant complainer that does no good to the group moral. the fact that apparently he's the only one who has a life as he put it, is quite disrespectful and shows a lack of class indeed. I call it as I see it.
it is not my intention to "start something". I just find the insults to everyone here by this person very rude, that's all. to assume we don't have a life because we're fans as he's so experienced is insulting as the least.
believe it or not, i'm actually the funny guy within our group IEFF, i'm sort of the "class clown". just ask anyone in our group. so to be clear, I don't want to keep something going here. this is to be fun for all. everyone is entitled to their own opinon as I said, but to insult and not take what you dish is quite sad indeed.

This isn't my first Celebration. I attended C2 and C3. I was only giggling over your refreshing enthusiasm. I was applauding your attitude in my own little way.
I plan to completely enjoy my third Celebration trip. I'm not an autograph collector but enjoyed volunteering for Official Pix at C3. I also enjoyed volunteering for GenCon and plan to do both again for this Celebration. Although everything announced so far is not my cup of tea I believe there will be plenty to fill my five days of fun. I'm sure there is much left to be announced. I look forward to meeting and chatting with Star Wars fans of all ages and persuasions.

I only went to C III because it was for ROTS, the last live action SW movie to be filmed. The last of a great saga of films. I never saw any of the SW actors in person, so it was a thrill to see all of them in one huge room. I got nearly everyone that weekend, save for a few people. I went to the Lucas panel, a number of other panels, and had a blast. It was crowded, but fun. The few days went fast.

Ok guys we need to call it quits here!!!
Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, if you dont like what someone has to say just ignore it.
Personally, this is my second Celebration and the first one was very fun for me. However, I can sympathize with those of us who have already attended. Yes, we can say, been there done that and my gosh that show again, and as I mentioned above we are entitled to that. I mean, for us, who have attended before, we dont want to spend our money on things we have already seen, nor see people (actors) we have seen over and over again. I mean if you went to see a movie more than once, like say 10 times, would you be willing to pay to see that movie again at a even more expensive price. Please discount Star Wars from that, because that would be a bias. I dont think so, so us who have gone before just want a little something different, something to make it our moneys worth for traveling such a long distance. Thats all, and there is no harm in that!!!
However, I am not a piss and moaner, so lets have some fun with all this. I mean lets not be hasty or nasty with eachother, we are all here for one purpose...STAR WARS...So, lets unite as fans, not be separatists...lol.
So, lets give VAL a break from all this bickering and call it a truce!!!
Love ya guys!!!

OMG...Speaking of Autographs...
PETER MAYHEW WAS ON THE GAMESHOW IDENTITY TONIGHT.
He was so cool, he said "May the Force be with you...I am Chewbacca," he looked awesome.
Maybe you can check it out on youtube later after the rest of the show!!!

Hey, I like Ewoks as much as the next guy. I think it is great so many are going to be there; however, most of the announcements have been dissapointing. When Gen Con said that they were holding this thing in LA, the expectations were that they were going to get more celebrities there. I don't think they were referring to Ewoks.
Now having said that, I will get everyone of the Ewoks autographs.
And two coupons for Amy Allen? She didn't have any lines in ROTS, not even a close up in ATOC, and she didn't even draw her lightsaber before getting shot in the back by the Clone Troopers. It's basic economics. Her autograph is more elastic than someone like Kenny Baker. She would actually make more money by charging a smaller fee.

My guess is:
Mark Hamill
Natalie Portman
Hayden Christensen
I do not think you will see Harrison or Jones.

"So this could change, but we have 47 announced, 9 more pending contract return, and 3 more GOH pending that likely won't confirm or decline till late April/early May...

So, 9 more pending. I'm assuming those are regular 1 coupon people.
3 more GOH. Remember he said they won't confirm or decline until late April/early May.
SSSSOOOOOOOO, I would probably expect about one more guest of honor.
*catches a very meaty Bone she was hoping for*
That rocks!!
In any case, C-4 will be a lot of fun - so many freinds who didn't get to go to Indy are going to be there this time, I just can't wait!!

Amy Allen's character is EU big, that's why she charges more. Meanwhile, you can get all the other Jedi except for Jackson free.
