Hey... you have a red lightsaber now!

I have one of each color, I switch it on my mood occasionally (blue/nice, green/mischievous, red/angry). The quote made me mad enough to change it.

There are a lot more colors in the world than three ;-)

Oh, and did you use green during the Crane Bros. incident? :p

I don't think I had the multiple colors back then, but I would have.

My sabers will not go EU. These are the shades of color Adywan uses in Revisited, so they're canon to me! I should make one in honor of the 2011 transfer though...

I think you should have it be all of the various colours they are in the BDs.

All at once.

IT'S MY TRILOGY, AND I WANT IT NOW!

I've just noticed that Grievous' ship looks very close to a Dreamcast controller with the memory card in upside down.

Some PP (prequel problem) that never has been adressed: "Many Gungans will be killed" This line always bothered in the sense that Quigy is unconcerned about the Republic pilots and Padme's people in general. In the RLM review, Plinkett stops to make a point about this line and I thought he would be talking about this but instead he makes a joke about Lucas calling them "Gungas" originally.

"as if millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced"

I wonder if I'm the first to notice this, or if my ears are playing tricks on me or what... In Star Wars, when the Death Star blows up Alderaan, pay attention to the sound just before the explosion. Doesn't it sound like a scream, cut off in mid just as the planet explodes?

I first noticed it when listening to the mono mix, and I'm pretty sure it's in all the others, too.

Is this real or is it just me? Has anyone pointed it out before?

Is owning a '95 Faces VHS set bought from Goodwill enough to qualify getting Dark_Jedi's DVDs? Or do I have to own the GOUT? I'd be more than happy to buy the GOUT if it's required.

The franchises I get nerdy about are so obscure that not even most nerds know about them.

I don't have a laserdisc player. I think it'd be cheaper just to buy the GOUT DVDs.

You don't need a player to make yourself feel better about downloading fan-edits.......just the discs.

True true.

But what about the tapes I already own? Do they count?

And it's not to make me feel better about downloading fan edits. It's to make the download "legal" by fan-edit standards.

But then how will I watch Star Wars with my brother in the middle of the night in my room? All we have up there is a VHS player.

You must, or else the self destruct on the vhs tapes will detonate.

SELF-DESTRUCT BUTTON!!!

Oh, well. I'll have to convince my dad to get the GOUT. Perhaps our family's next pass at Bookman's I'll look for the GOUT DVDs. I'll tell dad my plan beforehand, explaining about fan-edit rules, and pray he says yes. Otherwise... No! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Okay. But, my dad might not understand getting a laserdisc copy if we don't have a laserdisc player. :-/
