So you're concerned because Eddie van Blundht impersonated Luke Skywalker, and by doing so looked like Mark Hamill? And that says something bad about fandom, or something?

I guess I'm a little confused. I mean, that woman was an extreme Star Wars fan, sure, but it wasn't THAT BIG of the episode. She just was infatuated with Star Wars, someone came along who looked like Luke Skywalker, and she was convinced. I mean, Eddie van Blundht was able to not only impersonate Mulder, but convinced and nearly seduced Scully. I don't think this really is saying anything bad about fandom.

...This is not a statement about fandom? I mentioned RPF because I don't generally have a problem with people writing fiction about real folks. I'm saying that the idea of the character making himself look like a real person really wigged me out and I don't know why because it's irrational given that I usually don't care about fiction concerning real people or how fannish anyone gets over a celebrity.

Oh, ok, now that you explain it that makes more sense.

Pretty sure he presented himself as Luke Skywalker, who is still a fictional character, and not the actor Mark Hamill. Otherwise she would have said Mark Hamill.
