 | So this is a Star Wars Blog huh? |
Why is "Blog" not the name of a Star Wars Character? Boga, meet Boba, Boba meet Bail. Bail meet Blog. Huh?
So what do I write in my first SW Blog? What can I make up...uh, er...tell you about my life that would seem interesting and totally believable? Hmmmm.
Jessica Alba is stalking me...no too obvious
I had dinner with Boutros Boutros-Ghali to discuss midichlorians...No, too Kevin Smith
I sometimes dress like a leprechaun and sing drinking songs...No, That's too...much information.
WAIT! I KNOW SOMETHING!
There are some very nice perks to being an official Lucas film artist.
The best one to date?
Getting to see "Revenge of the Sith" 3 weeks before it opens!
You guys are going to love love love this film.
It's so good, and best of all fun.
I actually cried when the end credits ran. I suddenly saw my whole life flash before my eyes, and the emotions were just too much, and I balled my eyes out. It's the end of an era. That's a powerful thing.
But you guys don't want to hear about all that mushy stuff do you?
Ok, I've been to Skywalker Ranch, I had tables at Celebration 2 and 3, I've met some amazing artists, I've met some amazing actors, but my favorite perk has been meeting so many great people at Lucas film. Mary Franklin, Steve Sansweet, Bonnie Burton, Paul Enz, Pablo Hidalgo, Matt (Lucas arts), Stacey, Jeff, Christine, Jon...and the list goes on and on (please forgive me if I did not list you). The amazing thing is I have never met someone from Lucas film who wasn't one of the nicest people I've ever met. They are all awesome.
So, Yes I have seen the movie. Will I be seeing it tomorrow night? You bet! I'll be at the 12:05 showing at the Arclight, Hollywood; THE Best place to see a movie on the planet. If you have never been to the Arclight, it's so worth making a stop there on your next visit to Hollywood. The best part...Reserve seats baby! No waiting, just show up. Gotta love it.
Ok, that's enough for now. I'll write more later and tell you about my newest piece.
Keep your eye out for the new Star Wars Insider. I have created another back page joke.
This time it stars General Grievous.
Be good!
Randy
