Celebration III Day two

Back at the hotel at 9:30. We are exhausted a long day of actual activity!
The main thing today was the Rick McCallum Spectacular. We were in the first showing, and he got right down to it! The Episode III stuff was unbelievably amazing!! Can't even begin to describe it.... Rick said they were only 3-4 years away from total photo realism with the digital technology. We were blown away. He also showed another reel of special effects shots interwoven with the completed shot. This also showed some new scenes. The action is unbelievable. There was no audio, so we don't know yet about the acting!

This log will have to be completed at a later time - there's just no way I can write all the stuff that's in my head and still have time to enjoy the show! I have been jotting notes with my (ancient) palm, so recapturing the moment(s) will not be so hard. And we have LOADS more pictures than last time around. I hope to be able to post them here soon.

And there will be more substantive matters in future posts; my thoughts are not all just "whoah that was cool!" Though there was quite a bit of that today!

It is worthy of an explanation...

At first I was just fishing for cool words, but Verisimilitude jumped into my head and it fit; The seeming Truth of Star Wars has been in question lately, in my inner dialog. Truth as in Gospel, as in The One True Thing. It is about my stubborn unwillingness to accept it as just another movie series or sci-fi universe.

This inner dialog took various turns over the weekend, which I'd like to elaborate upon as I flesh out this journal over the next few weeks....
