    In ways too numerous to count and to contemplate. COVID has and will continue to impact my family for years to come.

    Do you think Disney should reboot the ST?

    I think so. As much as I love Finn, I think they should have adapted the Thrawn Trilogy or the Dark Empire comics and left it that.

    And have Joe Hisaishi write the score. :)

    Whoops! :oops:

    @Sarge - sorry about that.

    Should Studio Ghibli stick to hand drawn animation or create more CGI films?

    Ghibli's hand drawn stuff is truly artistic. Have they made any CGI stuff? If they can maintain their same level of artistry, I'd be good with that.

    What's your favorite Ghibli film?

    Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind (technically it came out before the Studio was formed, but it is obviously now distributed as a Studio Ghibli movie). Incidentally, I'm an admin of the Hayao Miyazaki Fan Club on FB, so any fans of the studio are welcome to join! We have over 48K members! And to answer your question @Sarge they had just released, "Earwig and the Witch", which is CGI.

    And speaking of Joe Hisaishi, I saw him conducting an orchestra performing Ghibli pieces at Carnegie Hall a few years ago. Paid a pretty penny for it too but it was well worth it! Here's a demonstration of what an orchestra performance was like (albeit not as grand as this one that was in Budakan). Be sure to watch it until the very end!


    Have you ever been to or wanted to go to an orchestra concert (not including school)? Think John Williams for instance.

    I attended? I saw ABBA in Australia in 1977 (was a great year).



    Is the first band you ever saw live still together?

    Apparently yes, I just discovered. They have tour dates in California in June. I saw them at the State Fair back in the mid 80's, my first real concert of memory.


    Have you met your doppelganger IRL?

    No thankfully. Although when I was 12 I was on holiday in Queensland with Family and in a store. The assistants were all whispering and looking at me strangely, mum noticed and asked right out 'Has my daughter done something wrong?' ''No Ma'am, is she Tina Arena?' Mum laughed, no I am not! Tina was a singing sensation here then and is still around now singing.

    First is her now, second is her then, she was 12 too.


    Do you remotely look like a celebrity?

    I was working at a summer camp in 1980 and the kids called me Commander Skywalker, so I guess they thought I looked like Mark Hammil. A few years ago when I had a beard people said I looked like Billy Joel; but I'm pretty sure I was never a rock star married to Christie Brinkley. I'd remember that.

    What celebrity would you like to meet?

    I think Mark Hamill, he seems like he's such fun, but to be honest, meeting famous people never appealed to me as they are after all, just people.


    Do you think celebrities should be held above regular people?

    No, I haven't. They're usually too expensive for me to attend.

    Have you watched any Doctor Who episodes.

    I tried years ago, it was a Tom Baker one with a Dinosaur chasing him, and it was hysterically bad. I couldn't take it even slightly seriously. I have seen a few since then but I suspect you have to watch it all to get it, as I didn't.


    Have you seen or are following Camp Cretaceous? A Jurassic World Spin off?

    Did you have dessert with dinner tonight?

    Do you prefer the Inquisitors or Darth Maul in Rebels?

    Inquisitors, because Maul died in TPM. I can't accept him coming back after the way Obi-wan killed him on Naboo. That was final.

    Did you mind the helicopter lightsaber things in Rebels?

    My Jaina Solo Bishoujo statue. I bought her at retail value about a decade ago, and now she's very rare.

    What type of SW collectibles do you own?

    I have a couple of autographed books, but the ones I really want are the Madame Alexander Star Wars doll set.

    What is your favorite musical?

    Hmmm, I was always a ROTJ fan, the Rogue 1 came along and I think that's mine now.



    Do you have a fav song that you feel is your 'signature' song?
