Hahahahahaha .... I can't even get that link to work, but I don't need to. I can I.D. the stuff from the quotes above (famous in my circle of Star Wars friends) ... because, well, I was THERE.

Hahahahaha, that was one of the highlights of the Episode II line at the Chinese Theater in Hollywood. Best.StarWars.Lineup.Ever.


It's from a short film called "Star Wait" which I highly recommend to all Star Wars fans. It's still available at plenty of retailers, and Netflix is considering stocking it (good karma points to anyone who requests it at the Netflix website ... every little bit helps).

The film is divided into several episodes ... they were originally shown on the 'net as a serial ... and they were each given running commentaries for the DVD release. Well, the coup of the commentary tracks is that the filmmakers found the actual punks who got their asses beat by a Star Wars nerd to do commentary for the Get Back to Hot Topic, You Bitch episode. Hahahahahahahaha!

No, I'm standing right beside the camera, watching.


There's a bit of me in "Star Wait" here and there, but I'm not one of the main characters.

What was the deal witht that angry guy? I think he might have had blue hair or something.

Funny stuff, but I'm kinda surprised. All the punk people I know are much nicer than that and most of them are nerds themselves. It's weird seeing them act like they're cool.

There is no lingerie in space…

C3PX said: Gaffer is like that hot girl in high school that you think you have a chance with even though she is way out of your league because she is sweet and not a stuck up bitch who pretends you don’t exist… then one day you spot her making out with some skinny twerp, only on second glance you realize it is the goth girl who always sits in the back of class; at that moment it dawns on you why she is never seen hanging off the arm of any of the jocks… and you realize, damn, she really is unobtainable after all. Not that that is going to stop you from dreaming… Only in this case, Gaffer is actually a guy.

I don't know the angry punkers, only the drunk nerds.

Not the hot topic dudes, but that secondary dude who was almost as prominant as the main guy they were talking about. The one who was all angry most of the time.

The guy who flattened the Hot Topic bitch with one punch? That angry guy?


He never seemed very angry to me. Of course, I haven't seen the clip in quite a while, and I can't get that link to work for me.

Naw, I'll have to pop it in again. There was the one guy who was first in line, and then this other guy who seemed like he was always getting all bent out of shape. The guy who confronted the hot topic guy seemed pretty reasonable.

I can't get to the clip either right now, I have the Star Wait DVD.

Heheh, Peter is the good-looking, "reasonable" guy talking with the punks to try and diffuse the situation. Josh is the guy first in line (who, because of that, got to talk to George Lucas on the phone, btw) - likely with remnants of his blue mohawk at that point in time, who yells the famous line, "Get Back to Hot Topic, you Bitch!" And Art is the big guy who decks the punk with one punch.


Good peeps, all of 'em.
