Totally awesome! I can't wait to see what you cook up this year - it gets better every year!

That's what I needed to see.

I'm officially excited now.

Bring it, suckahs. :-D

Holy shittake mushrooms, I haven't packed a thing yet! *flail, panic, clothes flying every which way.*

That car has to end up in the parade somewhere!

It'd be a lot more effective if he was cruisin' the strip, instead of driving a dirt track on a dairy in the sticks.

Old McJabba had a farm, E-I-E-I-Oooo... ;)

There's always a critic... :P

I tell you what. I'll make you a deal. If you buy the permit that is required to film on public streets in the city I'll think about doing it. Although the actor in the Fett costume doesn't have very good visibility through that helmet and I'm uncomfortable letting him drive my antique corvette in downtown... where there's people... and other cars...

Drive around a greenscreen studio and matte the city in? ;)

Excellent idea, however there are two problems... We now would have to pay for a soundstage with a big enough green screen, and we'd still have to pay for the filming permit to film the background plate of the city we could then matte in...

Do the whole thing CGI!

Well, now we have to buy a copy of Maya (more than a thousand bucks) oh... and send someone to school so we actually know how to use it... (a couple of thousand more)...

Not to mention you're talking about an hour of work for every second of rendered video...

Have an old friend who just happens to be a VP at ILM do it!

Again I see two major flaws with your suggestion...

1) My old freind who just happens to be a VP at ILM is just a VP, not an animator.
2) I don't have an old friend who just happens to be a VP at ILM

Now you're just being unreasonable. ;P

Holy hell, has it really been eight years since this little hobby started?
