ROFL!! I have a ferret named Pippin!!!!! He's our first and of course if I'd have bought another at the time it'd have been 'Merry' (of course we now also have a pair named Butters and Cocoa but that's another story)

I'm going to try and take a photo of Anakin this weekend and post it. He's cute--but otherwise just plain evil...

Like the "real" Anakin on the big screen!

You think the real Anakin is cute but evil?
“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

Unless there's more than one, NSTROMO would be Nostromo, the name of the ship from Alien.

Little kid Anakin is "cute" in the sense of "Aw, such a cute little kid"
and adult Anakin is "cute" in the sense that teenage girls blog about him because he's so "HAWT".

(And it's blatantly obvious he's evil; he just sat there whilst Tarkin blew up Alderaan)

Starkiller beat me to it.

How about PALOMNO? Get that reference?

My wife was driving behind someone today with the license plate PRSHSSS.

Now I was beaten.

Yes, Palomino was the name of the exploration ship that discovered the _________ floating in space near the black hole.
Its crew was played by such actors as Anthony Perkins, Roddie McDowell and Ernest Borgnine.

What ship did it discover?? Can you remembe that?

I stopped by to say that I just spoke with a friend on the phone. He was listening to a radio contest that screwed up.
The contest question was What was the last line of the last movie? I told him that it was Leia saying "He's my brother." He told me it was incorrect (that the station said Han had the last line) , so of course I took that as a challenge and had to check. I popped in my DVD and checked, and I was right.

You call that station back and you demand your prize, dammit!

Sorry, my ritalin has yet to kick in.

Er... doesn't Han Solo reply to Leia's "He's my brother." with "YOUR BROTHER?!"

I just checked: we were both wrong. Wickett gets the last line of the Sextilogy.

You know, I just re-re-re-re-re-(etc)-watched the OT again over the past few days, and I never really noticed before today that near the end of ROTJ, when Leia gets shot in the shoulder, Han gets a big ole boob grope in! He helps Leia sit down, and then cups her boob and then moves on... way to take advantage of an opportunity you scoundrel!

Does Wicket actually say anything that can be understood, or do we just see him moving his head as if he is speaking?

As for the grope...you have to see the full footage and make your OWN call. I've read about it, and from then on I see it.

Depends on what you mean by understood....

It's in Primatve Ewok, but the music doesn't drown it out like all the greetings during the celebration.

The Cygnus. Damn, you guys are pretty good.

And yes, Han does grab two scoops of raisins.

LOL! Yeppers... c'mon Chaltab- give another watch, maybe in slo-mo... he was *reaching* for her shoulder for a second time, missed his mark and got a handfull. It made up for Han's lack of 'slave bikini' action earlier in the flic.

I dunno. There is contact, but I dont' think it was intentional.

whats funny is when i was watching ROTJ before going to see ROTS, during this scene i was like, did Han just grab Leia's boob This is having never heard any talk of this before, then i see it mentioned here...

i believe that Han copped a feel, but seriously, do you blame him

He comes rather close in the trash compactor as well...then again, it was quite the "wet t-shirt" contest in there.

Then again, there's Oola's boob. Wouldn't mind hugging that sweater meat.

I've not seen Episode III yet, but in Episode 2 she hardly has enough screen time to have such a goof.
