Sith Happens

My younger daughter has expanded her movie repertoire to include the Indiana Jones series and the Jurassic Park series, but she still lives and breathes Star Wars. Getting all the action figures, posters, books, and that Darth Vader helmet for Christmas didn't help. When I tucked her in last night, I noticed a piece of paper she had taped up inside her bunk.

In a gaxly
far far far far away.....
Star WARS!
 
She also has pictures she's drawn of the various characters, especially Darth. They are on a first-name basis now. Meanwhile, I keep collecting links and stuff.


To set the mood: The Imperial March by Areosith.

4. "Hurry up, golden-rod..."
5. "That's okay, I'd like to keep it on manual control for a while."
6. "But now we must eat. Come, good food, commme..."
7. "Control, control! You must learn control!"
8. "There's an awful lot of moisture in here."
9. "Size matters not. Judge me by my size, do you?"

5. "There is good in him, I've felt it."
4. "Grab me, Chewie. I'm slipping -- hold on. Grab it, almost...you almost got it. Gently now, all right, easy, easy, hold me, Chewie. Chewie!" (Han) with "A little higher, just a little higher."

1. "Back door, huh? Good idea!"


You might be a redneck Jedi.

Han Solo frozen in carbonite, rendered in Legos.

Star Wars: Rise of the Sith flash cartoon.

Right here is the geekiest thing I've ever seen. I don�t understand any of it.

How the Death Star works. Some people take movies WAY too seriously.

Musing on the Death Star's trash compactor.

New Star Wars toys include R2Potatoo and Spud Trooper, joining Darth Tater.

Someboday spent a lot of time coming up with those lines, didn't they. I've never been much on Star Wars. I'm more of a Trekker. ;)

Hey thanks for coming up with this post. I've seen most of the content but not all, and its always good to revisit stuff :)

Now you need to post about what real world items went into making the many props found in the Original Trilogy...ha ha ha! (Hint: R2D2's holoprojector 'eye' was actually made from a Vickers Viscount 700 aircraft reading lamp)
