Has anybody got a photo of Vader from behind with his arms folded behind his back. Like he does on the executor bridge. Reasonably hi-res.

On set photo perhaps?

Thanks all

No, but maybe you could ask this guy to take one:

Hmmm not convinced. Shakespeare is about the poetic flow of his text, the wordplay, the poetry... it isn't just inserting "Thee" and adding "est" to the end of a few random words.

Alow me time dear sirs, to read from the great Bard's oft quoted Tragedie 'Taxi Driver'...

"Art thou conversing withst mine person?
Verily, I pray you answer!
To whomst art thou addressing?
For truth I am alone before thee,
So I conclude thus, that indeed,
Thou must assuredly be espying mine countenance."



Wow that was easy, can I have a book deal please?

The video clip is funny though... more laughing at it than with, but still a giggle.

Hardly inserting "thee" and adding "est" don't you think. Plus the illustrations are fantastic.

Wow, I take it all back. That link you posted ^ shows the actual text plus lovely illustrations. The video clip doesn't do it justice. The guy has got old Bill down perfectly.

Worth buying for "Exeunt Stormtroopers" alone lol

Ryan, check out the link I posted in the 'Last Movie Seen' thread of the Grindhouse trailer. It's brilliant.

Probably been posted before, but this fanmade Anime is just about the best original thing to happen to Star Wars in about two decades...

Lol. Ahem. Go to the Off Topic part of the forum, and you'll see a thread called 'Last movie seen' the last post (from me) has a link to a Jaws/Star Wars Grindhouse style trailer. Watch it and see what you think? It's brilliant!

Fantastic trailer, the voice is very well done too. Captures the GH spirit perfectly. Then again hard to make a bad trailer when it's cut to Rodriguez's 'Planet Terror Theme'. One of myall time favourite pieces of music. You kind of want to hate a man with that much talent but you just can't lol

He does a great line in food-porn too...

Anybody noticed this interesting bit of design detail from the Theed Palace hanger bay before?

Stupid TPM is stupid.

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 never noticed that before.  Weird.

So many things logicaly wrong with the Naboo Starfighter and the hanger. Like it is physicaly impossible for them to land back into those gaps down the side, but of course it is also impossible for them to land full stop.

But the design is so godamn beautiful that I don't care. Call me crazy but I'd have one of those over an X-Wing anyday. High-five if you built this kit back in the day...

It's like a beautiful vintage American car...
