    Happened to spot this in the starwars.com coverage today ...

    "Temuera Morrison stopped by briefly in order to complete the Fett family on-stage for snapshot-happy fans, but later spoke to (and sang a duet with) long-time friend Laga'aia on his own.

    Morrison came to Indianapolis via Skywalker Ranch in Northern California where he interviewed George Lucas, Rick McCallum, and members of ILM and Skywalker Sound for his New Zealand television program, "The Tem Show".

    Can't wait to see it.

    Check out Matt's report on star-wars.co.nz ... great stuff. Apparently the kiwi stars did an on stage haka :)

    PS - I wish I could have got more photos of the Haka and Bodie's Taiaha demonstration (improvising with a broomstick), but there are some limitations on the use of flash and video recording...the ones I've posted capture the vigour and passion they put into the performance though.

    Jay and Tem just had the crowd in tears of laughter. Bodie was sitting between them, unable to control his laughter at the impromptu comedy routine.

    At the opening ceremony, Jay sang Weird Al Yankovic's EP1 parody rendition of American Pie.

    This is the most incredible experience. I never imagined the sheer volume of items, and costumes (and unfortunately the queues), but the long trip has been worth it, and we're only just past the half-way point. The Ep3 footage is amazing, the effects are mind-blowing :D Really cool seeing Rick McCallum and John Knoll yesterday, and we're definately going to see those clips at least once more today! Then off to spend some money!

    That Infities inspired light side Vader in the most recent up date is really cool. Must be a blast to go there do all that cool stuff.
