Author	Topic: The Official Meet and Greet Thread
Valeska Registered: Oct '04	Date Posted: 10/31/04 3:15pm Subject: RE: The Official Meet and Greet Thread
	General Star Wars stuff: How long have you been a SW fan? Since I was 4. Describe your first SW movie experience: Which movie? When? Where? Saw the first one with my mom at the Hillcrest 4 in St. Joseph, MO in 1977. It was unbelievable though my most clear memory of seeing it was at the drive-in with my parents and their friends. Their was a keg in the back of the pickup, the sound came through those lousy speakers that you had to use, and it was unforgettable. Which is your favorite SW movie? I have to pick one? I'd have to say Return of the Jedi. Not for the ewoks but for Jabba, the Rancor, and slave Leia. Favorite character? Aayla Secura And Quinlan Vos Other SW interests? (collecting, gaming, costuming, fan fiction, books/comics/EU, etc.) Yes. I collect action figures of all kinds (mostly female ones), I love to rpg but haven't been able to in 6 years (at least FtoF) so I'm jonesing, I am keenly interested in costuming which is why I am taking sewing classes, I like to write fan fic but with my own characters - I don't mind playing in someone else's backyard but not with their toys, and I have recently read the DARKNESS and TWILIGHT graphic novels and loved them. I have some more to read as well as several books. About you: What other interests/hobbies do you have outside of SW? Writing - I've had some stuff published at www.popthought.com - Sewing, playing video games, reading, watching movies, listening to music, hanging out with Muley, shopping, walking, rpgs, lots of different stuff including stuff I don't know of yet. Mostly I like vampires, werewolves, things that bump in the night (despite being the worst fraidy-cat around), angels, gods, and demons. I think that's why I was so attracted to STAR WARS. It's the ultimate make believe. Favorite TV show(s)? A week ago I would have said CSI, but now I've seen LOST and it has a sexy hobbit in it. I like hobbits. I mean I really like hobbits. Especially Merry and Pippin. I also dig the BBC shows STRANGE and AS TIME GOES BY. Favorite movie(s)? This is a trick question, right? Actually I loved LotR. I like a lot of movies, old ones, new ones, animation, horror, kid's, thrillers, monster movies . . . only if I despise an actor or actress will I avoid them. Favorite book or author? Frankenstein by Mary Shelley. I like the social commentary within the book. Favorite song or artist? Libera Me - on the Interview with the Vampire soundtrack. It's a beautiful and inspiring piece. Favorite quote? "No reward is worth this." I used to rpg a lot and can relate. Favorite holiday? Halloween = wedding anniversary Oct 29 = Birthday You figure it out. Presents and candy and cake, oh my! Optional: First name? I get to pick one? Oh my first name. Gina. Age? 32 - I can still stare. (Obscure Izzard reference.) Do you live in Memphis or one of the suburbs? No. Profession or college major? BS in Geology, some Master's level classes. Misc: "A windy day is no day for thatching."

	Just thought that we should drag this out and dust it off. It seems we have a lot of new members and I would like to get to know them better. There also seem to be a few new socks, like this one, so just to clarify, especially for any new people, I am Jacob, introduced earlier in this thread as otisdodge and also posting as O Behave Kenobi and Johnny-Vegas. Welcome newbies! Come on in and make yourselves at home and tell us a little about yourselves. -----signature----- What you can't say, I can say better.

	I'm new around here, and this is one mighty-fine thread to introduce myself in. General Star Wars stuff: How long have you been a SW fan? However old you are in Second Grade - I believe around 7. Describe your first SW movie experience: Which movie? When? Where? etc. I first saw ESB after borrowing it from a friend, if I remember correctly. It was the original without being remastered. Which is your favorite SW movie? Empire Strikes Back, but I love Return of the Jedi. Favorite character? Sadly, I don't have one particular favorite character. Other SW interests? (collecting, gaming, costuming, fan fiction, books/comics/EU, etc.) I've recently gotten into costuming along with my friend and more established member here, Philip (blackdogotaku). As of this latest Star Wars Night at Triple Play, I've become a collector and hopefully player of the Star Wars Miniature game. Also, who doesn't love a good star wars videogame? I play what I can get my hands on - it's just a bonus if it says "Star Wars" on it! About you: What other interests/hobbies do you have outside of SW? I play tournament paintball, am involved in theatre, and perhaps something else, but it must be far less important than the aforementioned hobbies. Favorite TV show(s)? Boy Meets World, Degrassi, and Chapelle's Show. Honestly, I don't really watch T.V. Favorite movie(s)? Way too many to list, but I'll just start naming some. I don't have great taste in movies... I consider anything that entertains me good. Star Wars (All), Kill Bill vol. 1 & 2, Sin City, Resevoir Dogs, Pulp Fiction, Princess Mononoke, 10 Things I Hate About You, When Harry Met Sally, Blazing Saddles, Young Frankenstein, Airheads, Pirates of the Carribean, Shaft, Half Baked, Clerks, Mallrats, Chasing Amy, Finding Nemo, Analyze This, and many, many more. Favorite book or author? Picture of Dorian Gray, Catcher in the Rye, The Outsiders. Favorite song or artist? I definitely cannot limit this to one particular song or artist. radiohead, rammstein, 7 $ sox, rushmoore, a billion ernies, tupac, slipknot, the postal service, a new found glory, ben folds (five), big bad voodoo daddy, blink - 182, chumbawumba, dose one, dashboard confessional, eminem, marilyn manson, no doubt, paul oakenfold, rob zombie, something corporate, toby slater, aphex twin. Favorite quote? Star Wars: "Ahhhhh!" (Han, A New Hope while chasing/being chased by Storm Troopers) and Non-Star Wars: "Every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end," (Semisonic, Closing Time). Favorite holiday? Thanksgiving - just the concept of it, not the actual holiday, though. Optional: First name? Elliott Age? 17 Do you live in Memphis or one of the suburbs? Memphis Profession or college major? Not Applicable, yet, but possibly Theatre as a major Misc: I just got back into Star Wars after horribly long time without my favorite hobby, so you'll have to cut me some slack if I'm not up to par with my geeky-ness, haha.

	Hey Everyone, I posted over in the Fan Film thread, and have lurked on here and the website for a long, long time. So I figured it was about time I introduce myself! General Star Wars stuff: How long have you been a SW fan? Since 1995, with the "Last Time Ever" VHS release. Describe your first SW movie experience: Which movie? When? Where? I saw the advertisements for the "Last Time Ever" VHS when I was twelve or so and figured as much as I heard about Star Wars, it was about time to watch it. Unfortatnly my local Blockbuster only had Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi and they were in horrible condition. Still I watched Empire and was amazed. The graphics were even good for 1995! Which is your favorite SW movie? I have to pick one? Uhh.. Empire, because life is a series of down endings. Favorite character? R2-D2 is the MAN... well droid. Other SW interests? (collecting, gaming, costuming, fan fiction, books/comics/EU, etc.) I just started reading Shadows of the Empire which I love! It's just such a vast universe it's almost intimidating to get more involved with. But I'm working on it. About you: What other interests/hobbies do you have outside of SW? Well I'm a filmmaker. I work with a local Media Co Op and do some stuff by myself as well. I love to write, both screenplays, rants, and short stories. I love videogames, Kevin Smith films, Comics, 80's Metal, "Six Feet Under", Nascar, Hockey, ahhh I could be here all day. Favorite TV show(s)? I rarely ever watch TV, but I do like "Six Feet Under". Favorite movie(s)? It's almost impossible to list even my top 100 but some I like are : American Beauty, The Holy Trilogy (Of Course), All Kevin Smith flicks, Garden State, Collateral... Favorite book or author? I'm a big Chuck Palahniuk fan! Choke, Fight Club, Invisible Monsters all rule! I also just read A Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy which was hilarious. Favorite song or artist? I'm a big Poison fan, Bloodhound Gang, Queen, Eminem, Evanescence, Thomas Newman. Favorite quote? "I never let my school interfere with my education." Mark Twain Favorite holiday? Halloween Optional: First name? Brandon Age? 21 Do you live in Memphis or one of the suburbs? Cordova. Profession or college major? I attend school right now still debating between Film, English, History or Funeral Service Technology! Misc: Hmmm.. I'm out of answers.
