The discussion of the Alien series of films and the props used in them is the aim, but if it's got Big Bugs and Big Guns, then they are welcome too!

And I've "asked" you time after time...

Do you really want to be "carried" by this bunch? Putting your "safety" in their capable hands? :wink: :lol:

It's perfectly safe. After all, the parade doesn't go over any rivers...

So exactly how many Colonial Marines does it take to carry one Spat from the park to the Marriott?

Depends on a few factors. Which Marines are we talking about here? Marines from the PT thread?

the answer to the question you asked is yes!

Okay, it's getting close. We still don't have all the color guard spots filled. I've talked with Dom and others and we're going to fill them somehow. I'll carry a flag, we're going to switch some around, and may switch more still-

Dru's going to carry his Japan flag- with this being the 25th Anniversary, we want to get as many nations flags represented as we can.

Speaking of flags... I found mine, no problem, but I can't get my hands on the pole anymore. I originally thought I'd brought it back to Ireland with me in 2009, then to France, but now... The more I think about it, the more I think I might have left it with someone in the US. The obvious choice being Derek Smith, our resident Atlantean (no, that's not how they're called??)

I sent Derek a message, but no answer so far. Anyone has a pole they don't recall buying?

Obviously, I can order a new one from Glendale to be delivered to the US, but I'd need a volunteer to receive and bring it. Any takers?

Sorry about the flagpole SNAFU, folks. :(

Crisis averted - I DID leave it with Derek after all! ^_^

So, are you bringing your north pole with you? We could do with some cooler air, I'm sure...
