Actually, it was unintentionally funny, I meant it to mean something more like "lets see what the bugs are this year, then fix them for the big one". as far as who is going, the list is actually fairly impressive. Anthony Daniels (C3-P0)is back as the master of ceremonies, Billy Dee Williams(Lando), Peter Mayhew (Chewbacca), David Prowse (Darth Vader), Warwick Davis (better known for being Willow than his part as Wicket the Ewok) are all going to be there. And they just confirmed that Hayden Christensen (Anakin) will be in attendance as well. There are even rumors that Carrie Fisher, Jake Lloyd, Samuel L. Jackson, and Christopher Lee will be there. I'd say that it's going to be pretty well attended, even if the rumors stay rumors (a bit of "inside" info...not all of those will stay rumors, but I can't say anything for sure yet).
: Dry run? Was that supposed to be funny? The "Dealer" tent had like two feet of water in it and they had the fire department with giant pumps trying to make it safe for the public to even enter without being electrocuted to death.
: Besides that, it's not like anyone of any importantance will show up to a Star Wars convention. Last year the guest of honor was Jar-Jar, if he shows up at this convention he will probably be murdered or at least gang raped with a light-saber. Even Mark Hammil has sense enough to stick to highly reputed comic book conventions.
