    The Freemaker Adventures are awesome! If it's like that, this will be a hit.

    Wow! That's exciting[face_dancing]
    Almost guaranteed to be better than the 1978 version!

    DC released their FanDome schedule. It seems like they are really swinging for the fences in putting on a great virtual con. I'm excited.

    If anyone is interested, on August 30th, which was supposed to be the last day of Celebration, Warwick Davis, Denis Lawson, Joonas Suotamo and Greg Grunberg are doing a free virtual panel. You can also buy a two minute 1on1 virtual chat or a personalized autograph.

    Today I went to my hairstylist and fixed my hair, after a long summer of having to have a a natural hair colour. The thing is I had made this appointment back in March or February so that I would look nice when I went to Celebration.

    Here's an idea, if possible. get a "blue' screen, superimpose the Anaheim Con. Center on it then put yourself in the picture and give a "tour" of the center. can that be done" maybe, you in costume. maybe that could still make you feel the hairdresser was worth the convention? a virtual convention center tour? Uh-oh, without the Star Wars logos and stuff due to the debate over copy rights.

    How insane it is that Celebration would have been next weekend! What a totally different mindset we would all be in right now.

    Well, finding out recently that the vaccine(s) are not going to be very helpful for those who are overweight I am going to need those two years to get in better shape.

    As sad as the two year wait for Celebration is, just remember that we all get to go two more years without seeing @ChrisLyne.

    I open up again for business in two days. A perk of running a theater is you have to test the product.

    I plan on getting tickets for Tenet on Friday. My preference would've been an at home release like Mulan, but it is what it is. I'll be selective about which films I see in the theater. Normally I probably would have seen New Mutants in the theater, but I'm going to skip it.

    We are doing these watch parties for like $99 were you can have the auditorium with up to 20 people. I think that would be my choice if I were to go back

    Sending me 20 invitations doesn't, doesn't count.

    Our local cinema had something like that in March/April before they closed totally, but my cosplay group didn't manage to agree on anything to watch.

    You wouldn’t even bother to come. I’d get better luck inviting @ChrisLyne if his country wasn’t requiring quarantining on his way back in
