I was so happy to see this photograph between David Banner and the Hulk off screen. It speaks to the power of a makeup-prosthetic character to express the split in the human... that duality manifested in flesh :).

@JakeLuntDavies Beautiful! I just wrote a book about droids and creatures in Star Wars and I found "B" one of the most compelling new / old droids -- he inspired what I wright about surprise and delight because that's what he brought to that otherwise mostly human story!

[Colette Searls @ColetteSearls]

Wow! Thanks for sharing... some of these candids between Mark Hamill and the puppet are as powerful as the film stills #PUPPET #starwarspuppetry

You ever get that feeling that somebody is drilling holes in the back of your head with their eyes????

[Colette Searls @ColetteSearls]

One of cinema's most best non-human characters! #StarWars #starwarspuppetry

[Mark Anthony Austin @BobaFettANHSE]

Ahhh NOPE!!!!

My nemesis.

@LCJReviews Wonderful to see so much human effort behind a tiny puppet! #puppet

[Colette Searls @ColetteSearls]

Star Wars puppetry at its best! A puppet INSIDE a puppet! #starwarspuppetry #starwars #BehindtheScenes #Grogu #PUPPET

@JakeLuntDavies My favorite droid since the original films, brilliant design, thanks for sharing.

Time for a moment of chill, courtesy of a whale shark we spotted in the Red Sea. Speaking of spots, each whale shark has a unique constellation of spots that can be used to identify different individuals.

@Mikolaj_JK I could not agree more, just wrote a book about the power of the Star Wars practical, this photo says it all!

This is why I love Star Wars
Practical effects > CGI

[Colette Searls @ColetteSearls]

@ScarifPodcast These two have a special connection -- the most influential, lasting, badass helmeted characters in Star Wars!

[Colette Searls @ColetteSearls]

Loving this image! Anthony Daniels puppeteering this powerful character he brought to life from the OUTSIDE was wonderful to watch #anthonydaniels #starwarspuppetry #BehindTheScenes

Contrary to what we're taught in school, people remained enslaved in the US almost 2.5 years after the Emancipation Proclamation. Juneteenth marks the day final slaves in Texas were freed, celebrating true Independence. I encourage everyone to learn the history of the holiday!
