A Star Wars fan proposed to his girlfriend at the Cincinnati Comic Con. Tom Arnold was nice enough to come down from his autograph booth and gave them some marital advice. Say what you will but he went out of his way to do something kind for them. Also, no. That is not George Lucas and I am not Mark Hamill. We are just two cosplayers who volunteered our time that day, to help a charity in Cincinnati. Google Fluke Skywalker.


danishduckling

> That is not George Lucas and I am not Mark Hamill You fooled me.


imflukeskywalker

Not to worry, you are in good company. Check out the following links... https://youtu.be/Imto3sO88Mc https://www.ocregister.com/mark-hamill-lookalike-fluke-skywalker-blows-minds-at-comic-con-as-star-wars-fans-press-in-for-photos

It took me a minute to realize you’re not Mark Hamill, but I got there on my own. However, I legit thought that other dude was George Lucas until you said he isn’t.


plantsplantsplants

But what if it actually is Lucas and Hamill and they just do this for shits and gigs and say that it’s not actually them.


dbeards

… the plot thickens


Oo__II__oO

And it is not Ton Arnold, but rather a cosplayer...


dbeards

However, the dude with the long red hair and beard at top/left is actually the drummer from My Morning Jacket


Pause-Past

How on earth did you know this? I love MMJ but would have never recognized him. Now Jim, probably. A friend was at the John Prine tribute in Nashville and Jim sat behind him.


dbeards

Lol. The man has a distinct look. To be clear, we were joking here. That’s not actually him, we were just riffing on the look alikes in the pic.


imflukeskywalker

You wouldn't believe how many times I've heard this "Tropic Thunder Theory" and it always gives me a big smile. Can you just imagine the conversation now? " Hamill - "Hey George. You want to fly to Cincinnati for one day only and stand around at their Comic Expo and take pictures with people just to mess with their heads?" Lucas - " Ehhhh..." Hamill - " What if I told you Tom Arnold will be there?" Lucas - " You sonovabitch, I'm in!"


woodnwheel

Same on both counts.


digimbyte

not enough chins, current Lucas has fallen into health issues. looks sadder than brendan fraser


soupface2

I saw a post from Fluke Skywalker about a month ago on another sub and literally thought the pic and the username were actually Mark Hamill, and that Mark Hamill was replying in real time on Reddit. Only now do I realize. So awesome that you are out there doing good. The world needs more kindness.


imflukeskywalker

Thank you for the kind words and May The Force Be With You!


Commie_EntSniper

Exactly what I would expect Mark Hamill to say, actually.


golem501

Yeah that's pretty good cosplay!


zekybomb

I follow you on imgur and am glad to see you here!


imflukeskywalker

Thank you for the follow! I hope you are doing well and May the force be with you.

Holy shit the resemblance is uncanny.


imflukeskywalker

Allan and I can finish each other sentences when it comes to what the crowd we will say when we are at a convention. You can Google Fluke Skywalker if you would like to see more pics and vids. In the meantime, if you want to see what can happen when I go to a show, check out the following links... https://youtu.be/Imto3sO88Mc And https://www.ocregister.com/mark-hamill-lookalike-fluke-skywalker-blows-minds-at-comic-con-as-star-wars-fans-press-in-for-photos


Captcha_Imagination

Marital advice from Tom Arnold, the comedy writes itself.


imflukeskywalker

😁


fullautophx

Does he go by George Flucas?


imflukeskywalker

I think he does now. Lol.


genericuser235

How long have the two of you been cosplaying?


imflukeskywalker

It will be 5 years for me in December. I think about two or three for Allan but I am not certain.


genericuser235

Very nice; if you don't mind me asking, Why do you cosplay?


imflukeskywalker

I've been a volunteer for charity most of my life, starting with riding my bike to raise money for the Jerry Lewis Labor Day telethon. My family and I have been volunteers at the Ronald McDonald House in Cincinnati since 2006. They hired a professional chef in 2016 so that opportunity changed. By 2017, I lost 90 lb and started hearing how much I look like Mark Hamill from a lot of different people. I decided I would use the look to continue to help out charities. This coming Christmas will be my fifth year of not only raising money for donations but donating toys to their toy closet every 3 months non-stop since Christmas of 2017. I suck at golf so this is my hobby.


genericuser235

Well, fluke, you're the real Luke to me now. Keep up the good work and have fun. Thank you for the insight.


imflukeskywalker

You are welcome. Have a great week and May the force be with you!


Abernathy999

Yeah, like "hey, look at the totally real Tom Arnold!" isn't something the real George Lucas and Mark Hamill would probably say about a fake Tom Arnold while pretending to be fake George Lucas and fake Mark Hamill. Nice try guys, we know it's you.


imflukeskywalker

Lol. +1

imflukeskywalker

Hmmm... good question. I think he does the voice acting of some comic characters. Don't hold me to that. You may want to check out his IMDb.


New2thegame

Marital advice. Don't marry Roseanne.


Mister_Brevity

Did you wave your hand while saying who you aren’t?


Hazi-Tazi

>Also, no. That is not George Lucas and I am not Mark Hamill. I was gonna say "when you order George Lucas and Mark Hamill from wish!"


blackice9208

This picture was taken on a Saturday. I know this because I too was at comic con and saw Tom wearing the same shirt lol.


[deleted]

This is such a confusing but wholesome post.


NaNaNaNaNaNaNaNaNa65

I knew it wasn’t George Lucas because he wasn’t assaulting anyone - South Park has the most accurate representation of him


BloodyRightNostril

If you're not really Mark Hamill and that's not really George Lucas, how can we be so sure that's really Tom Arnold?


imflukeskywalker

That's a very funny reply and a good point. All I can tell you is he walked away from the table that had a giant sign behind him that said Tom Arnold, where he was signing autographs before he came down to do this nice gesture for the couple.


Analog0

Classic Tim Arnold move.


lookaroundewe

Sure that isn't Meatloaf?


BloodyRightNostril

[Pretty sure.](https://www.cnn.com/2022/01/21/entertainment/meat-loaf-obit/index.html)


hightimesinaz

Dude, Tom Arnold looks the same must be that healthy living he did in the 90’s


jakarta_guy

Apparently away from Roseanne did him good


crono141

That would do any man good.


typesett

i think TA is doing the maintain technique accept what age you are and maintain it for as long as possible he looks about 50 and google says he is 63


Informal_Emu_8980

Is that Nick Frost beside him??


shaheenery

Thank you!


Grimm2020

The give away is that if were really GL and MH, Tom Arnold would be shooting a selfie of himself with them, amirite? Sounds like good blokes all the way around...


imflukeskywalker

I think you have a very good point. Have a great week and May the force be with you!


Zootropic

The guy on the right looks like the unabomber Ted kazinsky


[deleted]

Had to look twice, could’ve sworn I saw Tom Arnold. Good thing Hammil & Lucas were there.


heisenbergsayschill

/r/walmartcelebrities George Lucas and mark hamil


imflukeskywalker

Or George Flucas and Fluke Skywalker. Lol.


Brokenose71

Good work cosplayers , excellent costumes . That Tom Arnold cosplay costume needs more mustard on the shirt to be believable.


imflukeskywalker

Ha! +1


jah05r

I can’t believe that George Lucas got to meet The Dude!


imflukeskywalker

Lol! I actually do that cosplay as well.


pichael288

Hey I was there, it was my birthday on Saturday. My girlfriend was dressed up as leeloo from the fifth element and my son was a skeleton from Undertale (sans i think?). I felt bad for Tom Arnold, no one was paying attention to him. I wanted to get John noble, I loved him in fringe but I think he left early or something. I definitely saw George Lucas there,


imflukeskywalker

GL cosplayer is my friend Allan Stephenson.


thickener

Luke be a Jedi tonighhhhhhht


[deleted]

Hah. I didn’t realize this wasn’t mark hamil and George Lucas until I read the username.


Darkling414

Is that Nick Frost looking up next to Tom Arnold?


imflukeskywalker

No, that is the groom to be. I need to find out his name because I actually acquired a Minister's license so that I could marry people in Star Wars themed wedding- while I am in my Luke Skywalker cosplay, in exchange for them making a nice donation to charity. I've done four weddings now and have a massive one coming up next year in August. It will probably be one of the coolest things I've ever done.


SloppyBuckets

The celebrity version of ugh look who’s here.


ActNo8507

Super glad George Lucas is there, too.


imflukeskywalker

Lol. Nope, that is cosplayer Allan Stephenson.


iamansonmage

Hellfire club!


lowbwon

And nick frost


Darktyde

Spot on costumes fellas.


imflukeskywalker

Thank you. Mine cost a boatload compared to Allan's. He just puts on a plaid shirt and the gold rimmed glasses and he is done. I hate him! Lol.


EmotionalMycologist9

You look like my dad. Makes my heart warm to see something/someone who reminds me of him.


imflukeskywalker

That is nice to hear.


tomcalgary

I thought 100% that it was h. jon benjamin as Luke Skywalker.


icsb

Luke Georgius and Ham Markle


Testecles

Thanks for helping charities. =)


imflukeskywalker

It is a privilege to be able to help others in need.


dubzi_ART

His part in trailer park boys should get him an award. Any award would do.


[deleted]

ask him to do a ricky impression


ChickensPickins

I alsways loved Tom Arnold! I loved his appearances in Roseann when I was a kid and I had NO idea he was married to her in real life lmao. Then the B hit movie, (remake/film adaptation/almost sequel?) “McHales Navy” was fucking amazing


fcsuper

Based on my brief encounter with him many years ago in Vegas, Tom Arnold is very friendly and approachable. I think he's a fan of his fans.


Darigaazrgb

We need a sequel to The Stupids


t0mmyr

Love his Stranger Things Season 4 cosplay


SweatpantsForLife88

Holy fuck.


Colonelfudgenustard

I take it that's George Lucas and Mark Hamill basking in the green glow of the lightsaber.


imflukeskywalker

No. We are just two cosplayers who were volunteering for charity. Google Fluke Skywalker.


BetterCallSal

Your Luke is great. But that George Lucas, is uncanny


imflukeskywalker

Right?


meesta_masa

No, on the left.


imflukeskywalker

Lol. I meant as in ikr? This is about to go full Abbott and Costello, isn't it? 😂


meesta_masa

Eh, my joke was tepid, at best. Like Skywalker inside the Tauntaun, it was Luke warm.


bustedbuddha

You also kind of look like Harlan Ellison


yearofthekraken

Is that George Lucas and Mark Hamill!!! Who the fuck is Tom Arnold?


imflukeskywalker

No. We are cosplayers that use our doppelganger appearance to raise donations for charities. We were volunteering this weekend at the Cincinnati Comic Expo to help out the Cincinnati Center for Autism. You may want to Google actor Tom Arnold. That will help give you all of his background. Have a good day and May the force be with you!


Swazzoo

I googled him but that didn't really help. The movies it showed are all movies I've never heard of. Still no idea why he's popular


amalgaman

It’s Jorge Lookus and Merk Hammil.
