    Thank you Rob and Kate for setting everything up and the blasty cool badge! I really had a great time meeting everyone. All you costumed people rock! I am rather envious. Hopefully I can start one soon. (Might have to wait 11 months until wedding is out of the way first) I'll just have to use the advice from a few Jedi: "Patience" :D

    Yes,we definitely MUST do this again,and soon! :) Rob and Kate,you guys did a great job setting this up,and I could not believe how nice the museum and theater staff were to us. :)

    For a first time costumer,this was a lot of fun and I totally understand the appeal of costuming now(even if I did get called 'Anakin' a few times)! lol :p

    yes, Kudos to Rob and Kate for the job they did in arranging all of this! :D I would have liked to have made it today as well, but the wife would have none of that! (I have a football game to go to tomorrow.) I have to spend some time at home. :p I know that I will probably be seeing AOTC again in Imax before it leaves on Christmas eve!

    You guys looked great in your costume on Friday. Sorry I didn't stop and say Hi but my friend and I were in a hurry. Seeing AOTC in Imax was a blast. The question now is which verison of the editing do you like better. Personally I like the new verison. Less Jar Jar scenes the better. Less of Anakin's whining. Closer view of Ewan's handsome face. :D

    I would like to thank everyone! Without everyone showing up to help out this would not have been such a sucess. It was a blast and the staff will have no problem with us returning :)

    An additional thanks to JediTeddy for contributing to the cost of the badges...Thank you :)

    Well, Kate beat me to the punch... :)

    I would also like to thank everyone who showed up, without all of you this wouldn't have been the fun event that it was. I had ALOT of fun both days and the Theater people were just so awesome to all of us.

    I'm busily working on getting my pics online so that everyone can view them. I've got them all compressed to a more "web-friendly" size and have one page done (the Friday morning pics). I'm going to work on the Friday night and Saturday afternoon pages after work today. I'm hoping to have them up tonight.

    I'm also going to burn a bunch of CD's with the larger file size pics and bring them to the meeting this Saturday.

    Keven (the 6'7" Vader who was there) is going to be sending me a CD with all the pics he took in Dearborn along with the ones he took in Grand Rapids on Saturday. If I get it before the weekend I'll add his pics to the CD I'm burning as well so that you all can see them too (not to mention I'm going to host his pics along with mine online).

    Thanks again everyone, I was very glad to hear that everyone had so much fun... it really made all the work Kate and I did feel worthwhile. :)

    Sooooo, since we all had SO much fun and the theater people were SO nice to us, that begs the question...

    ...When are we going back for more? :D We had mentioned the idea of Thanksgiving weekend, possibly Saturday and Sunday? Something for us to discuss at the meeting, I'd say!

    Regards,
    M.

    Tom, the manager, was very receptive to having us come back again before the movie moved out of the theater :)

    I think Turkey day weekend would be to much for this month on everyone.

    I would like to put to vote on Saturday one of the following two days
    December 14
    December 21
