"I will not condone a course of action which will lead us to war."  But it is interesting seeing where SW goes, culturally.

Just watched Star Wars Despecialized. A less than official Blu-Ray of the original theatrical version with no additions. Glorious and pure.

Saw stuff in Star Wars Despecialized that I hadn't seen in years. Colours and characters erased by tampering. Made me feel like a kid again.

And one of the truly beautiful moments? Greedo getting it in the guts, just for being a smug bastard. #dontfuckwithmrsolo

No Jabba, no Jawas falling off fucking dinosaurs, no digital corrections. No flying robots. All crystal clear old skool glory.

Not a bad compliment, Harmy. That's really nice. :)

We want you to be aware that we have no plans—now or in the future—to restore the earlier versions.

Don't let it go to your head, though, man. Next thing we know, you'll be making crazy alterations to your edits and it'll be Lucas all over again!

I saw a number of Rorschach inkblots today. This one was among them.

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/32/Rorschach_blot_10.jpg/601px-Rorschach_blot_10.jpg

To me, it looked like Luke, holding his lightsaber aloft, in cowboy chaps and a gunbelt.

God doesn't think in terms of black or white - or even shades of gray - but in big, bright, bold hues of blue and orange.

I love these guys. I dunno why they get so mad, though.

Hmm... could be a concern. Do you see Star Wars related things in the following slide too?

So which member of TFNs Aspberger Brigade is that? (also my favorite Prince song).

Both of those inkblots just make me think about sex.

Riding on top of the moon lander which is strangely suspended over a little white star destroyer?  No.
