Did somebody watch "When STAR WARS ruled the world" this weekend? (1)

Carrie Fisher was quoted  saying (about that costume) that "if I leaned forward,
someone behind me could see all the way to Florida"....

Hmm... How shall I write this in a family friendly way?

Way back in 1983 I read an article (in Rolling Stone, I believe) in which Ms.
Fisher lamented that she would move one way but the costume would move another.
If memory serves, she was even reported as using a clever pun on the phrase "but
it's okay."

But I saw that show on VH1, too. Fun stuff.

1 - It might be a repeat, but I hadn't seen it before.. I found it amusing that
Kevin Smith was just listed as "superfan" rather than being tagged as a
director.

One thing that disturbed me is that some of the superfans looked exactly what
the cruel stereotype of a superfan might look like, but other superfans looked
like "normal" people.  It's like they have some lifestyle that can't be
discerned except by observing their generally private behavior, or something.

Dave!
