(Mr. Lucas takes the stand and raises his right hand.....)

 

Prosecutor: Mr. Lucas, are you telling me the versions from 1977-83, called Star Wars, Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi are not the real versions, so you don't feel anyone should profit off them?

 

Lucas: When you say Star Wars, you are talking about the Saga, yes I make money off of the 6 movie saga.

 

Prosecutor: No, Star Wars, the movie from 1977!

 

Lucas: The movie that came out in 1977 was called Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope, I really don't know what you are talking about???

 

Prosecutor: Star Wars, the movie that showed Uncle Owen unknowlingly buying C3PO and R2D2 which set everything in motion.

 

Lucas: No, Uncle Owen owned C3PO for 10 years after Episode I, and when he bought him in Episode IV, he didn't recognize the only gold plated droid who talked like an english butler in the galaxy.

 

Prosecutor: What???? Ok, how about Return of the Jedi from 1983, where Luke talks to Leia about their mother, and Leia says she remembers her very sad and died while she was very young.

 

Lucas: No, No, No! Luke/Leia's mother died at childbirth, Leia is having force visions of her mother in that scene.

 

Prosecutor: Huh???? Ok, how about the older Anakin shown at the end as a force ghost smiling at his son next to Obiwan and Yoda.

 

Lucas: Older Anakin, not sure what you mean?? Anakin died in Episode III, and then reappears as his 20 year old self at the end of Episode VI, even though Obiwan, who never turned to the darkside, has to sit in jedi heaven as a crusty old man.

 

Prosecutor: Your honor, I move a motion to arrest Mr. Lucas for perjury!

 

Judge: Sir, I have been a Star Wars fan since 1977, and I have been dealing with the Mr. Lucas that is on stand today for the past 12 years! Get used to it!
