			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;ve been watching <a href="http://animal.discovery.com/tv/whale-wars/">Whale Wars</a> on Animal Planet, the show follows Captain Paul Watson, founder of the <a href="http://www.seashepherd.org/">Sea Shepherd Conservation Society</a>, as he and his crew aboard the Steve Irwin attempt to deter Japanese ships that hunt minke and fin whales in the Southern Ocean Whale Sanctuary.</p>
<p>Being an animal rights activist, and of course a Star Wars fan, I got a kick out seeing the rebel and imperial logos prominently displayed on the crews helmets.</p>

<p>This maybe old news to some, but it&#8217;s new to me <img src='http://www.bothanjedi.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  </p>
<p>Hollywood has hijacked yet another one of my childhood memories &#8211; <a href="http://magicroundabout.com/">The Magic Roundabout</a>. A new animated movie is due out soon retelling the tale of Doogal, a sugar addicted dog, an opera singing cow, a stoned bunny and a wacky wizard with a spring instead of legs. I guess it&#8217;s not quite as bad as some Hollywood remakes as it looks like it has the blessing of the original producers, and the animate character are virtually unchanged from the original stop motion figures I remember.</p>
<p>For those of you who are British and born in the 70&#8217;s or 80&#8217;s you&#8217;ll know what I&#8217;m talking about. For the uninitiated, this was simple BBC children&#8217;s series, shown as five minute episodes every teatime when I was a little kid. It was originally created in France, and there was over 500 episodes created. It was re-dubbed into English by Eric Thompson (Emma Thompson&#8217;s dad) and told the tail of Doogal and his friends.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ll almost certainly add this to my Netflix queue.</p>
<p>Time for bed children&#8230;</p>

<p>I&#8217;ve not had anything Star Wars related to post in a while.</p>
<p>I love <a href="http://starwars.com">Star Wars</a>, and one of my favorite TV shows is <a href="http://dsc.discovery.com/fansites/mythbusters/mythbusters.html">Mythbusters</a>, so this is a must see.</p>
<blockquote><p>Can you survive overnight in a blizzard by gutting a dead animal and getting into its carcass?</p>
<p>Could you survive a 50-foot fall into a snow bank like Luke Skywalker did?</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Those are just a couple of the questions the MythBusters attempt to answer in this great piece at <a href="http://www.starwars.com/community/news/rocks/f20060127/index.html">starwars.com</a>. </p>

<p>My wait to see Star Wars Episode 3 ended last week. As an avid Star Wars costumer, and a member of the <a href="http://www.501st.com">501st Stormtrooper Legion</a> and the <a href="http://www.rebellegion.com">Rebel Legion</a> I was fortunate to be invited to participate in the local charity premier. Lucas himself was in attendance as well as several celebrities.</p>
<p>The event was held at the Sony Metreon in San Francisco, with a post movie party in Buena Vista Gardens next door. Ticket prices started at $500. There was a red carpet as expected to welcome the guests, but there was also a black carpet laid down to represent Anakins final turn to the dark side and transition to Darth Vader. <img src='http://www.bothanjedi.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  </p>
<p>I had a blast at the event, and was luck enough to be interviewed a few times and ended up on local TV, and quoted in several newspapers (from an Associate Press news story.)</p>
<p><img src="http://www.bothanjedi.com/media/ep3-premier-2.jpg" border="0" alt="Chris James - X-wing Pilot - Ep.3 Charity Premier - San Franciso" /></p>
<p>The hightlight of the event of course was getting to see the movie. Overall I was pleased with it, but am reserving judgment until I see it at least once more.</p>
<p>As you can see i dressed as an X-Wing Pilot</p>
