Celebration V details from Steve Sansweet

Our pal Steve Sansweet was hanging out on the Forcecast tonight, and he gave us some tidbits:

Jon Stewart’s “Main Event” with George Lucas will be a one-time only thing, but there will be an overflow room.
All six Star Wars films will be screened digitally, two a night.
The U.S. Postal Service will be on hand the first day with a special mailing station and themed cancellation stamp.
Randy Martinez is doing the program art.
There will be some form of opening ceremony – because Steve needs to wear a silly costume (See right.)
And weirdest of all… There will be speed dating. No, really. Speed dating.

~~The podcast is aired live tonight, but will be up later this week.~~

I know you’re going to be my speed dating wing(wo)man, right? Dunc? RIGHT?

Speed dating at last! I can finally find my soulmate. ::snerk::

I’m pleased to say the speed dating idea from the Dragon*Con track. Brandy Roatsey put together Lightspeed Dating. They ended up with two couples.

And I can’t wait to see what the costume is this time.

If I were going, I would totally find the time to do the speed dating. It sounds like more fun when you face the possibility of ending up sitting across from someone in a Wookiee outfit.

I just hope that at least one of those speed-dating couples ends up making it official at the CV love chapel.
