AD ASTRA, TORONTO, MARCH, 2003 Author Guest of Honor David Brin, gently explaining to some poor shmuck why he's wrong: I actually got to be on a panel with David. It was all about why the last two Star Wars movies sucked; and I subtitled it "Where George Lucas Went Wrong; Some More of George Lucas' Greatest Mistakes; and Who Is this George Lucas Person Anyway?"

TheMovieBoy Review: I Woke Up Early The Day I Died (1998) a teenage hooker (Christina Ricci), an undertaker (carel struyken) and hisassistant (Max Perlich), a boy and girl at a beach (Jonathan Taylor Thomas, http://www.themovieboy.com/reviews/i/98_iwokeupearly.htm
Extractions: Cast: Billy Zane, Sandra Bernhard, John Ritter, Tippi Hedren, David Ward, Nicollette Sheridan, Christina Ricci, Steven Weber, Will Patton, Karen Black, Tara Reid, Jonathan Taylor Thomas, Eartha Kitt, Rick Schroder, Michael Greene, Kathleen Robertson, Taylor Negron, Abraham Benrubi, Conrad Brooks, Ann Magnuson, Andrew McCarthy, Ron Perlman, Max Perlich, Summer Phoenix, Rain Phoenix, Carel Struycken, Vampira, Kathleen Wood. The picture begins as a mental hospital inmate, billed as The Thief (Billy Zane), dresses in a nurse's uniform and escapes. Looking for money, he shoots and kills a loan shark at a bank and instantly becomes a wanted man. While at what he thinks is the funeral of the loan shark, The Thief spies on the four mourners (Sandra Bernhard, Tippi Hedren, Michael Greene, John Ritter) whom he later suspects stole the money he hid in one of the graves, and stalks each one, hoping to find his money. Or something like that. "I Woke Up Early the Day I Died" goes off in all sorts of directions after this basic set-up, as we also briefly (and I mean very briefly) meet cops (Andrew McCarthy, Steven Weber, Rick Shroder), a preacher (Will Patton), a teenage hooker (Christina Ricci), an undertaker (Carel Struyken) and his assistant (Max Perlich), a boy and girl at a beach (Jonathan Taylor Thomas, Summer Phoenix) who find a dead body after it plunges off a cliff, a singer (Eartha Kitt), a bar waitress (Tara Reid), and a ballroom woman (Nicollette Sheridan). I couldn't really explain too much more of the story in fear that it would simply get far too confusing, but suffice to say, the film concludes on the day The Thief gets up early before he dies.
