There seems to be a lot of people who are into Star Wars. I talked to the storm trooper and he made his costume from scratch. He said he made the injection molds for the plastic parts and everything. That’s dedication. I walked back through that area about an hour later and he had taken off his helmet as his shift had ended, and another stormtrooper was taking over. I shouldn’t have been surprised, but he had to be in his late 60’s to early 70’s. I was a teenager when Star Wars came out. It was cool, but I didn’t go nuts over it. He would have been in the prime target demographic of early to mid 20’s.
I had a lot of friends who were artists, musicians, dancers and theater types, so Rocky Horror was still the cult film of choice when Star Wars came out.
I would not advise you to rush out and see it. Although we saw a stage play of Rocky Horror as part of a season tickets series we had years ago, and the live performance was much better than the movie I have to say. I’ve never seen Breaking Bad or any of those shows, and I get that same feeling like I’m the only one.
Tim, the little guy in the center of the first photo is adorable, four and all.
Hi Mia. His dad was trying to get both of the kids to look at him, like the stormtrooper, but they found me more interesting.
It certainly made for a great photo!
I can’t get the photos yo load when I click through. Will try later.
Who knows what’s going on with that. Thanks, for trying Julia!
Seen them now. Beth’s boyfriend is a huge Star Wars geek. He’d love these!

With my kids’ generation it seems to be either Star Wars or Harry Potter, with some LOTR thrown in. There are areas of overlap, too!

I have never seen Rocky Horror. I could be the only one…
