Wow, Kathy! Whoever took those pictures must be some sort of professional photographer or something, I mean, the composition, the lighting... (j/k).

But back to our "slave girl". I think her name was Sarah or Zara (?). I can't recall exactly, because I was too busy looking at her face (yes, her face). It wasn't until after I'd taken a picture with her, that I realized why I was looking at her face: Natalie Portman! I mean, even the mole on her left cheek is in the same place. Creepy (but still hot!) tongue But I did recommend her to submit her photo to www.leiasmetalbikini.com.


Let's just test that theory shall we:








Elton, my good man, WHY didn't you get me to get stuck in that elevator with her? I had a whole roll of quick fix-it tape that I was just waiting to use that weekend. wink

While we're on the subject of Natalie, I bought the 2-disc edition of "V For Vendetta" today. I was watching the featurette on the "new age" of comics. Take a look at the background behind the people being interviewed. It looks oddly famliar. thinking


Sorry about not contacting you about the photos of Daniel and Amy, Kathy. We had to do it quickly, when there was a short break between autographs. I was shocked when I asked her to take a photo holding up the shirt, when she volunteered to actually put it on, doing various poses! I was like drooling .

Oh, and I still need to get you pictures from "Superman Returns" & "Pirates" too.

I forgot her name, but her and her dad (Michael?)were three doors down tongue from us at the Omni. Everytime we came and went, they did too. He works for Hasbro and was her personal bodyguard at CC happy


Wow, cool dad not to mind his daughter dressing as Slave Leia. I was going to say, she looked young (hence reminding me more of epI Padme I think), but then again StarSmuggler looks young and she's 18.

There's an article on Comic-Con in the latest issue of Entertainment Weekly (Samuel L. Jackson cover) about what's coming out in 2007. The article may bother 501st members because it shows a trooper witht the wrong blaster and shoes! FYI, next year also marks the 25th anniversary of E.T., Blade Runner, and The Dark Crystal. I also caught a blurb that tomorrow night that Access Hollywood would have footage as well.

Anyone with Tivo? Tonight they're showing "Star Wars vs. Star Trek", and I was interviewed at Comic-Con by someone asking me which was better, but I'm not sure if this is it. Can someone record it anyway?

Hmm, Star Wars is WAY BETTER THAN STAR TREK. And that's including the prequels to weigh Star Wars down. Star Wars RULES!!!!!!!! tongue

No, it really does...and I'll fight anyone who says otherwise! angry

The PT have their own unique brand of suckiness of their own which can not compare to anything else since no matter how bad it is or was, it still made a profit. confused

And this whole Star Trek vs Star Wars crap is just that -- a load of crap perpetuated by non fan media who like to cause nothing more than agravation amongst fan groups. It's stupid, rediculous, and does nothing more than label a person. I don't know about the rest of you but I refuse to be labeled, indexed, or classified.

It's not a matter of which is better since they are entirely different things that happen to take place in space. I'm sick of hearing about it and never debate it other than the very foolishness of the debate. Unfortunately I've noticed more of the vitriol coming from Star Wars fans which makes absolutely no sense to me. I like both and hate both equally. Both were great at one time for me, and now both are dead to me.

If somebody doen't like Star Wars, fine. Somebody doesn't like Trek, fine. But to make it seem like it's some sort of rivalry is nuts, plain and simple. And we would be gullible to fall into such a trap. It's like Sam Spade vs Sherlock Holmes. Just because they are both in mystery genre, doesn't make them rivals.

Lastnight's G4 AOTS episode of Star Wars vs Star Trek was just a debate of which franchise is better. It featured Kevin Rubio of Troops fame as the Star Wars expert, and I forget who as the Star Trek expert. Intresting and fun debate,, but I wouldn't say it was worth keeping on video.

The channel at CC that was asking the SW vs ST question was Fuse TV. Here he is interviewing us.


There was another channel that interviewed us, some Anime network?

Yeah, they both interviewed our TIE squad at one point. Not sure if that made it onto the show.

Yeah, they also interviewed both me and my bro when we were dressed as Luke.

BTW - She did not get around to do it herself, so Leah (PrincessLeah) gave me permission to post the link to her pics of CC06:

The guy from the Anime channel heard my voice amp and asked "How come your voice sounds like that? You got a blender in there or something?"

I told him, "Yeah dude, I'm making margaritas, want one?" alien_1

If anyone who bought an autographed photo (or have one without a frame) would like a nice way to display it, can contact me about the plaques that I use for my collection:




They are wood with a marble-like finish, measure 10 1/2" x 13", and run about $20.





They come with a brass plaque that can have up to three lines, and can be made for horizontal photos as well. PM me if interested.
