	I don't have a total from John yet from ticket sales. Should have it soon though. I do know we collected $75 from buttons, shirts, posters, and donations. I will post a total as soon as I get one. Great job everyone! -----signature----- ....____ ../_____\ ..[ O^O ] (_o III o_) ....===

	Couple of hundred, I believe. The final tally isn't in yet, but the donation jar had like 75! That was great! That was an awesome night, and people at my work are still talking about it! I don't think a conversation about yellow jumpsuit Wolverine is ever a conversation gone bad. No matter the time of night or morning!! He most definitely would bring in a crowd. What would you think of your beloved Spiderman in a matrix-accelerator suit? LMAO! -----signature----- my derby has a first name, it's R-O-L-L-E-R....boop Curse your sudden, but inevitable, betrayal!...boop

	This is an e-mail I received from Greg Dunker from WKYX (he was one of two Bristol Broadcasting hosts who came to see the movie and help out the charity event) after I sent him a thank you note for coming out: On 6/29/09 11:58 AM, "Greg Dunker - WKYX" <dunker@wkyx.com> wrote: It was a blast! Denise and I were dying laughing, and yes, we DID get most of the jokes! Really enjoyed the “Firefly” and “Spaceballs” references... You need to send me some pics ASAP and some idea of the money you raised so I can do a story for the website Dunk

	We made the front page of West Kentucky Star: http://www.westkentuckystar.com/News/Local---Regional/McCracken-County/-Star-Wars-Fanboy--Premiere-Benefits-Telethon "Star Wars Fanboy" Premiere Benefits Telethon By Greg Dunker PADUCAH, KY - The Paducah Imperials, a local Star Wars "fan force" debuted their new fan film, "Star Wars Fanboy" Saturday night at the Maiden Alley Cinema. The premiere was a fund-raiser for the Lions Clubs Telethon. The movie is the story of a rag-tag band of rebel toy collectors going up against the Evil Galactic Empire, trying to complete the "ultimate Star Wars collection". Fans of not only Star Wars, but Indiana Jones, Spaceballs, and even the short-lived TV show "Firefly" will catch a lot of comic references to those shows. The film also features the very first fan-film appearances of the actors who portrayed Chewbacca and Boba Fett in the Star Wars films. Before the movie, members of the cast and crew (in full costume) mingled with movie-goers at a meet-and-greet session. The group also sold posters, t-shirts and buttons to raise money for the Telethon. For the past few years, at the Telethon Pre-Party, member of the Paducah Imperials show up as their Star Wars alter-egos, to entertain the children. Michael Deering, who portrays the Emperor in the movie, said debuting their movie to benefit the Telethon was the highly logical thing to do. The event raised over 75 dollars in donations alone, ticket and merchandise sales are still being counted.

	Congratulations on a well done event. The wife and I had a great time and I even had the ice cream guy joke explained to me. It was well worth the drive and I can't wait until I can own my very own copy of the film. Here are the few pics that I took http://s7.photobucket.com/albums/y262/jedimika/Maiden%20Alley%20Fanboy%206-27-09/?start=all

	It's reactions from people I talked to and stuff like this with everyone having fun and us getting the donations for charity that makes all the long hours and stress of making the movie worth it. At least I think it is, plus I think it turned out to be a really darn good fanfilm. Again, great job everyone! The food was delicious, even though I didn't get to eat as much as I wanted, and a huge thanks for all those in uniform who weathered the horrible heat of that day! We can put another notch in our belt for another outstandingly awesome event! -----signature----- "Put Captain Cargo in the Solo hold." - J.B.

	Our final tally from Sat. nights show is $310.00 from ticket sales and $75.00 in donations/poster and t-shirt sales for $385 total going to the Lions Club Telethon. Nice job everyone! Maybe we could do a couple other events to raise more money before Nov. so we could present a even fatter check. -----signature----- ....____ ../_____\ ..[ O^O ] (_o III o_) ....===
