:darth: 2006 Star Wars Weekends is May 19 to June 11 :chewy:
so I figured I would take a cue from LoveMickey :) who started the Flower & Garden Pic of the Day thread and start a thread so we can all get in to the spirit of Star Wars :yoda: . Please post your pics of past Star Wars Weekends past! :ewok:
I'll start with one from last year:
Here are the Storm Troopers who greet you at the entrance of MGM

I can't wait!!
Mickey's Sister -- andromedaslove can correct me if I'm wrong, but I think that is the 501st garrison of stormtroopers. Anyone can join the garrison as long as they have a movie quality stormtrooper uniform. You can get them on ebay for almost $2,000. My fiancee is obsessed with them, and wants the uniform so bad. The 501st usually only visits a couple weekends out of the whole thing, usually the first and the last I think. We missed them last year, but we are going every weekend this year so we don't miss them again. Yep, we're that obsessed. :teeth: You can see them at 501st.com.
But there are many stormtroopers walking around normally. It's fantastic.
btw, I just broke 100 posts...yippee!!
andromedaslove
05-10-2006, 11:12 AM
I believe you are right about the storm troopers, and there aren't always that many there. From what I understand there are usually between 35 and 100 every day. However there are more there on opening weekend and on Fan Club weekend than any other.
Here is another storm trooper photo. This one chased my son around my legs for a couple of minutes. The sad part is that my son (4 at the time) wasn't afraid of Darth Vader but he was afraid of this storm trooper!! :confused3

Thanks Belle Amy!!! We plan on doing the first & second weekends next year, so maybe we'll get lucky. My son has been a fanatic since he was 2 - he's 12 now - and for one reason or another we've missed SWW so far. We're bringing the whole family & many of us are Star Wars fans. We even plan to dress up - I got a pattern to make Jedi robes, we'll see how that goes, LOL! :yoda: I hope you'll post tons of info & pics from your visits this year. My son is hoping they add Grievous - though I can't imagine how they'd do the costume.
Personally, I'm waiting for a Star Wars character meal.
BTW - I LOVE your Anakin/Amidala wedding idea. You could even have a musician play their theme song - the sheet music is available. My son plays the trombone & I got him the sheet music which he plays daily!
Thanks again!!!

Mickey's Sister -- Your son will have a blast...I've got a Star Wars fanatic of my own on my hands! We are actually still kicking around the Star Wars wedding idea...we were deciding between Han and Leia or Amidala and Anakin....but I love Amidala's dress, so my vote won...Love the jedi robe idea...we're actually making t-shirts on zazzle.com for this year. Mine is a picture of Greedo and Han in the Cantina and on the back it says "I got wasted at Mos Eisley Cantina!" and my fiancees is a picture we found online of a repair manual for the Millennium Falcon...we're still looking for a good quote for the back...any ideas anyone?

To those going later this month or in June, you will have a fantastic time. It's even better than last year, in my opinion!

I'm typing as fast as my fingers can go!! Battery is still charging, but I should have those pics saved and ready soon!
As far as I know, there were no EMH yesterday. Everyone got in at the same time.
This morning, however, there were EMH. I don't know how that worked out for people. I should think it would be a very good time to stay in a resort. Maybe someone who went today can post and let us know.

Oh yeah, I see that the EMH mornings change from May to June (when we're going) ! Hopefully someone who attends SWW today with EMH will report how it affects signing up for the autographs and trivia and touring in general . . . it's 'prom night' at my house, so I'm sticking close to home and waiting for reports . . . :listen: :yoda: :smooth:

Has anyone got anymore pictures? Also, have they made any announcement whether or not they are going to extend SWW like they have for the last two years? Otherwise, I will miss it by a week. :sad1:

I am very disappointed right now knowing that today was the last day of SWWs. I will be there next week and I was hoping every day that they would extend but the didn't. I can only guess that the announcement that they made this past week had a lot to do with the fact that they didn't extend SWW this year.

We were there slightly before Star Wars Weekend, but it seems as if Padawan training had already begun! It was fun to see the kids learn to use their 'light sabers' and go up against Darth Vader!

jjohnson - GREAT pics!!! My son would think he died & went to heaven if he could spend his 13th birthday at Star Wars weekends. He turns 13 next April, so we're planning a trip for next May, but now that they've scheduled Celebration IV for Memorial Day weekend, who knows what will happen... In 2002 we had a trip planned & they scheduled Celebration & then cancelled Star Wars weekends. My son was heartbroken, though we went to Disney anyway. I wonder how soon we will know...
Did your son participate in the Jedi training? My son was afraid he'd be too old at 13 - I hope not.
Thanks again for sharing!

Yes he was picked. One of the pictures is of him battling Darth Maul. I thought he might be too old too but I was yelling "It's his birthday" & he was wearing his Darth Maul hat so that may have helped. The robe was SO small on him :blush: We had such a great time & it's a memory I'll never forget.

I figured with this year's dates announced, it would be a good time to get this thread kicked back up! Plus, I'll be able to actually make it this year, so I'm pumped!!! These pics will get DS11, DD5 & DS2 ready as well!
Here's one that was Not actually from SWW - we just got lucky to see the Sith Lord one June Afternoon!

I must post a :thanks: to Belle Amy for the post about the 501st legion. I have 4 boys and have never heard of this organization. Oldest 2 boys love SW (and I admit I loved the movies too)...I checked out the 501st website, found out that our regional troop members would be making an appearance at a local bookstore event, and was able to bring my 2 oldest boys to spend about an hour with 3 stormtroopers, a shock trooper, a biker scout, and Boba Fett himself...lots of great pics, and it took the sting out of not being able to go to SWW!!! (we have a trip planned for April and cannot go back in June).
The 501st does a lot of charity appearances and marched in the Rose Bowl parade too, what a fun group of people who are doing something they love and bringing lots of joy to legions of SW fans! :) The bookstore was practically empty. My nephew came in his Jango Fett costume which made for some cute interactions with his "dad" Boba, and our pictures ended up posted on the local legion's website :eek: Lots of fun though. So thanks for the info!

We didn't see Anakin last year. I second that .... hope he is there this year!
Ooohhh...just saw the celeb list came out for this year...here are the weekends we are there....
June 1-3 -- Warwick Davis & Kenny Baker
Davis was only 11 years old when he played the Ewok hero Wicket in Return of the Jedi. In Episode I, he played multiple roles, including that of Anakin's young friend Wald. Kenny Baker gave the "human" side to the beloved droid R2-D2 in A New Hope all the way up to Attack of the Clones.
June 8-10 -- Ray Park & Daniel Logan
Fans know Ray Park as the Sith apprentice Darth Maul in The Phantom Menace. Daniel Logan played the young Boba Fett in Attack of the Clones.
From the SW website.
Here's one of our celeb pics from last year just to get in the mood...

For anyone going this June!!! We're going June 20.
Can you post your pics after you attend? Also, can you post the schedule of events, tips, etc... (is that allowed on this thread, or can someone direct me to a more appropriate place?). I am particularly interested in the parade, and if the X-wing you can sit in and get a picture will be there (and if so, can a 3 and 5 year old sit in it?).
Thanks!! The pictures are awesome! My boys (all 3... DH included!) are so excited!!!

I have some really good picks from last year's SWW and was wondering if anyone could tell me how to post them on the forum?
