TALKING HAMILL

The latest photograph of Mark comes with a piece of voiceover news. Apparently Mark has worked with OddBot Inc. on a new project for Playhouse Disney.

There is no more detailed information at this point, but OddBot Inc. has uploaded a photograph of the cast and crew together with Mark to their blog. 

He looks great! :D

As soon as I learn more about the voiceover project I'll let you all know.

There are lots of images of the event, too.

On Flickr check the albums of users bryanearl, msprout and radder86.

If you happen over any more photos, let me know.

Mark has given his opinion of Heath Ledger's portrayal of The Joker in the upcoming "Dark Night" movie. Go to Comics2Film to read what Mark has to say.

Also, our fellow Mark fan sueprano has pointed me to this site here for a large assortment of Mark pictures from July at Celebration Europe.

I'm trying very hard to be on here more often and post more often. It's not as though there isn't plenty of Mark stuff to share out there. I promise I'll do an effort.

Today, I have a new voiceover project of Mark to announce. Word of it was discovered by our fellow fan sueprano and it doesn't only come with its own website, but also with cute Mark pictures. :)

So go and check out Mythic Journeys. Mark is voicing a character called "The Corpse". On the site above you'll find a photo of Mark when you scroll down to the bottom of the page.

Another image is in the site gallery.

And I think I never did a post about the auction that is underway where you can win a private lunch with Mark. For all necessary information go to
this website here. You can enter bids until November 29, so you still have some time. If that ain't the ultimate Christmas present...

Again I have to thank caryn_b for pointing me to a Mark treasure.

It turns out many pictures have been taken when Mark signed for Official Pix in his Malibu house on October 24. In numbers, there are 30 wonderful images that are even downloadable for free!

Go to this site here: http://web.mac.com/benstevens3/OPX-Blog/Hamill-Posters-1.html and enjoy yourself.

I'm so grateful to Official Pix - not only have they been the first to give us vocal news of Mark after the fires, now they're following up with visual proof. Perfect start into a cold and rainy Thursday morning.

I'm just popping in to shout 'HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MARK HAMILL!'

All the best in the world to you! You're the best, man. :D

And just so that we fans also get something out of his day of honor, here some images I've never seen before.

sueprano brought this new radio interview to my attention. It aired August 8 on BBC Radio 1's Edith Bowman show, but I think it was recorded a couple of weeks ago when Mark was in London for STAR WARS Celebration Europe.

Here is the link, great photo inclusive:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/edithbowman/galleries/293/42/#gallery293

In the interview Mark says that he hopes to be in pre-production for the film adaptation of "The Black Pearl" this fall and to start shooting in January/February 2008. He also mentioned that maybe the movie'll be at the Cannes Film Festival next year. Sounds pretty cool, all of it, doesn't it?

Enjoy!

I've been thinking about how to best archive all the images and other media I've collected from Mark's appearance at Celebration Europe. I'm still not entirely sure how to best do this; I have very limited webspace at Just The Best, so I can't really upload them all there.

For the moment, I have added ALL images I found at Flickr.com to my favorites there, so in case you're catching up, you don't need to follow every single link I posted throughout the last couple of weeks separately.

Here are my Flickr.com favorites. Enjoy! :)

I'll wait a couple of days before I add all Mark images (i.e. all that are not of CE) I find on that site to my favorites.

There's also a piece of voiceover news, sort of. Mark has been interviewed on a feature called The Dark Knight Revisited, which is a special on the recent DVD release of the 1977 animated series The New Adventures of Batman. Thought you'd like to know.

Again it's been a couple of days since I posted. At least today I'm coming before you with a whole lot of news.

First of all, I found another photo of Mark at Celebration Europe:

http://www.flickr.com/photos/jan-quicoran/969510977/

Then there'll be two things to add to your DVD collection of Mark's voiceover work.

On August 14, the complete 2nd season of Loonatics Unleashed will be released on DVD, featuring the episode A Creep in the Deep, in which Mark voiced the lead villain Adolpho.

On November 20, the complete 4th season of The Batman will be released on DVD, featuring the episode A Matter of Family, in which Mark voiced the character of Tony Zucco. Find out more at Superhero Times.

There's another piece of voiceover related news where I'm not sure whether I'm interpreting it right. Once again this year Nickelodeon is holding the Nicktoons Network Animation Festival. If you check out the
Frederator blog, it says "Patrick, Genndy, Mark, Joanna, Steve, and Michael join our previous judges – Gabor Csupo, Andreas Deja, Michael DiMartino, Mike Gabriel, Eric Goldberg, Mark Hamill [...]". I'm not sure whether this means that Mark WILL BE a judge on the festival or whether he won't be. To learn all about the festival regardless, visit its official website!

I haven't gotten around to posting during the last couple of days and I apologize for that. This week was crazy; too much to do and too little time. Of course much of it is my own fault, since, to be straightforward with you, I'm totally chaotic. ;) I need to do one thing at a time instead of everything at once...

Anyway, I haven't got much Mark to share right now, expect that I want to point you to all the lovely links Hope has posted. I gathered them in today's update at Just The Best, or you can just dip to the entry below and read all the comments she gave to it. There are plenty of Mark images and a Mark video.

The point of this entry... Actually, I just wanted you all to know that I'm in the process of cooking some things up. 'S all. :)

There's a first clip of Mark's Question & Answer session at Celebration Europe up on YouTube. I hope more of that will be shared eventually, but these are already three wonderful and funny minutes.

There's also one more new image at Flickr.com:

Enjoy!

It's amazing how hopelessly buried you can be after just one day off the computer; we're talking of a factual 9 hours here, minus the time I spend working, sleeping or eating. And my inbox was deliciously EMPTY when I powered down the computer at noon on Wednesday! Help!

The best medicine against stress is, of course, Mark images, and so here are links to the latest images I've found.

I'll try and get caught up now. :)

Can't break the flow while it's so strong, right? Here are some more images I found. I'll be gone until tomorrow afternoon, so it might be Friday morning, German time, until I will have more again. But these should tend you over the wait.

These are all at Flickr.com again.

I also found the original video clip of the radio show Heart Breakfast. I know you've already seen the YouTube clip, but this one here is in sync. Mark's gestures and movements match the answers, so that's cool.

And let's not forget the yellow press. It's loving Mark right now. :)

You just have to adore the age of digicams and the internet. All these pictures help so much to forget at least for a while the disappointment of not having been there yourself. :)

Oh, and before I forget it... Here are some yellow press articles... What, you didn't know yet of Mark's crush? Why, where have you been? *winks*

http://enews.earthlink.net/article/ent?guid=20070716/469aed40_8c0_224020070716-1619657717

Isn't the yellow press amusing?

There've been some more pics up on Flickr.com.

Let's see:

There's also a very sweet article at the link below. There are no pics, but it perfectly illustrates how nice Mark is to his fans, so go read it.

http://www.thisisswindon.co.uk/display.var.1546512.0.luke_skywalker_meets_his_hero.php

I hope there will be more images surfacing on the internet throughout the next couple of days, but these ones are really, really nice for a first start.
Let me just say one thing first - whoever took the pics at WireImage really should let the FAN-MADE pics inspire him, because they're so much better and do Mark much more justice.

The first ones I found this morning are these two, posted on Yahoo!

 


Nice, hu?

Then there are various of excellent quality that I found at Flickr.com.

These are all of Mark:

These are from the crowds at the autograph session and his panel respectively:

http://www.flickr.com/photos/clarebatemanking/802045320/

There are also some pictures of the Opening Ceremony (one of Mark) at
TheForce.net.

I'm sure there will be many more soon and of course I'll post anything I find here.

I was doing some googling yesterday to try and find more information on Mark's upcoming movie, or more pics of last Monday's event. Found none of that, but still some goodies I hadn't seen before.

If you go to http://www.themikedouglasshow.com/multimedia.htm, you can see a very short clip of Mark, Carrie and Harrison on the "Mike Douglas Show". This must have been in 1977, very soon after the premiere of STAR WARS. Mark doesn't say anything, but at least we see him! No comment on the clothes, though...! *lol* But of course it was "in" at the time....

Then I found two pics which are much more recent. One with Debi Derryberry and some unknown guy, which I found on Debi's website. I assume this was taken either in 2003 or 2004. The other has been taken in 2004 on a Q&A session for the release of the STAR WARS OT on DVD.

I found this googling for Mark pics.

The writing is somewhat annoying, but not too much. ;)
