So excited for May 4 aka Star Wars day! My friends curls and treeofstars were able to snag me a ticket for a showing of "Return of the Jedi" at the Egyptian theater while I was at work today. This is the same theater where the movie first premiered back in the 80's. It's a pity that it's not the original theatrical release, but I'm just glad I get to see this on the big screen at all. I never got a chance to see the original trilogy in the theaters when I was old enough to remember it. So, my friends and I are going to Star Wars geek it out. At this point, I am going to bring my original Wicket stuffed Ewok and my two baby Ewoks (these are from the 80's y'all) in my Yoda back pack (bought from Comic Con a couple of years ago) while wearing my Star Tours t-shirt and my Disneyland R2D2 mouse ears. I may bring my Jedi Mickey, but I feel like I'm bring too much already. LOL! I know that my friends are also planning out their outfits and their props, too. It will be epic!
And we also plan on watching "Iron Man 3" sometime during my short Friday night/Saturday visit. I cannot wait!
And speaking of these awesome friends, my friend spicedrum upgraded my San Diego Comic Con pass to 4 day with preview night (again, another friend bailing me out), while my Comic Con roomie friend, R. snagged me a ticket for the Walking Dead Paley FEST panel last month. That resulted in me getting most of the cast's autographs on my Season 2 Comic Con bag and slapping Norm Reedus's hand.
So yeah.. I'm blessed to have awesome friends who help my fan girl dreams come true. :)
