The Magic of Myth Exhibit in Chicago
On vacation this week to visit my family in Chicago, I decided to check out the Field Muesum to see all the memorbila from Star Wars.When I first arrived the line was very long with a least 75 people ahead of me.While my family waited in line I decided to check out the gift shop.Inside it had mostly Sue the T-Rex objects but they also had some Star Wars books and actual pieces of film from the movies for sale.When I return in line we were about twenty spaces closer.Later some lady announced the tickets were sold out.I like any true fan was pissed.My family then decided then to just check out the other exhibits since we were there and stayed in line.When we finally got there some guy was talking to a lady behind the counter about Star Wars.He was mad because it was sold out.The lady then told him that it wasn't sold out and that he could go to the 4:15 showing.I jumped in and then finally got the tickets.Since we had a few hours to kill I looked around and checked out the dinosaurs and the mummy exhibits.With a hour left I decided to go by the exhibit.There I saw a sign that said "Star Wars Audio head-sets".I then asked a lady when I could buy them and she said around 4.Very excited and anxise I stayed waiting for it to start.When it was time I was one of the first in line.When you walk in you hear the Star Wars music which gets you even more exicted.Once in the first thing I saw was a stormtrooper in a glass case.It was so cool life-sized and all.I then saw 3PO and R2 and just had to take a picture.The costumes were so cool up close.I took many pictures including Han Solo's outfit and Chewie's 7 foot outfit.I also took pictures of Yoda,the lightsabers,the wampa,boba fett,jabba the hutt,darth vader, and much, much more.It was so exciting they had Lando's costume,Luke's jedi costume,Han in Carbonite,a Star Destroyer over 12 feet long,and Leia's Cloud City outfit.It also included Anakin's pod and his pod costume.The head-phones didn't work which really got me mad.Once I left the exhibit I walked into a huge Star Wars store.It was just for the people who toured the exhibit.They had evrything from original posters,magizines,clothes,evrything.When I left I was pretty happy.With having to wait for epi. II it's good to check out other Star Wars events.

I caught the event in Washington last year. I admit it was very cool, I'd never seen so many movie props in one place before.

I've only ever visited one Star Wars Exhibition and that was the one at Barbican Centre earlier on this year. I enjoyed it a lot, although I thought it was a bit short. I loved standing before the great body armour of Darth Vader!

Don't worry
Don't worry. It's just that I wrote a post and then only minutes later you'd replied. I thought this was a forum, not a chatsite.

Don't mention it.
You're welcome. I might be on here a while, randomly replying to any old posts. I like to be one of those people who end up having hundreds of posts. Long way to go...

Re: Oh yeah
I don't think I'm going to comment on this...other to say that something about being off topic and that I've never had a chance to see Myth and Magic

Once again sorry....
Once again, I'd just like to apologise for my behavior, master. I did not realise that swearing was not allowed on this forum.
And I am grateful that you think I'm ready to take the trials, master.
Do you think there's still hope for me master? Do you think that I may someday become a Jedi Knight? Or even a Jedi Master? Or even a Jedi Council Member?

Re: Once again sorry....
It depends on how long you stay here and what you post.
This should really be moved to GDF.
