It's funny how torn I am on the subject... I hate Lucas for making us need this site, but I love him for making us need it so all of us could actually meet.

Yep, I'm a sentimental sap.

Ironically, her IMDb profile says she provided voices for two SW video games.


!!!!! SHE WAS FIFTEEN?!?!

Isn't that illiegal?!!?!?!?!!

Not in Italy. Not in most of the world with consent.

They showed us that movie at my school.

It was... surprising to say the least.

Must be. I didn't see it until grad school. In class, yes. But not in high school which is what I'm assuming you two are referring to.

We live in Northeast Tennesee for crying out loud!!

If we aren't rebellious law-breaking beer-party goers, then we are upright young members of society.
There's no in-between! Why we even need the class is beyond me. I normally just post on these boards the whole class.

There was? Really? What are you guys talking behind my back, over here?!

Well, ok, to clear this up once and for all: yes I do have a penis. OK?
“Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country.” — Nazi Reich Marshal Hermann Goering
