In the spirit of William Shakespeare's Star Wars:

DON PEDRO

Look, here she comes.

BENEDICK

Will your grace command me any service to the world’s end? I will go on the slightest errand now to the Antipodes that you can devise to send me on. I will fetch you a toothpicker now from the furthest inch of Asia, bring you the length of Prester John’s foot, fetch you a hair off the great Cham’s beard, do you any embassage to the Pygmies, rather than hold three words' conference with this harpy. You have no employment for me?

DON PEDRO

None but to desire your good company.

--William Shakespeare, Much Ado About Nothing, Act II, scene i

“That Darth Vader, man. Sure does love eating Jedi.”

I had a chance to play the Star Wars Battle Pod tonight at that bowling alley I always go to. Awesome stuff. I even hit the top of the leaderboard even though I crapped out on two missions!

Ol’ George has the GOUT, I see.

I thought it was exclusive to the Dave & Busters restaurant chain? At least that's what the tv ads say.

Hm? Why would an arcade game be a restaurant exclusive?

I take it you're not familiar with Dave & Busters.

My media writing professor made a cheap joke about watching Star Wars with no dinosaurs.

I laughed. Very loudly. It was a very lame joke. And I still laughed.

I have to be. No one else will speak in this class. He calls on me even when I keep quiet... :/

So... Han cops a feel on Leia once in each film of the OT...

...anybody think it'll happen again in TFA? Just for old times' sake?

Or, maybe this particular torch will be passed to Poe Dameron and Rey?

I know he cops a feel in ROTJ, but SW and TESB, too?

I'm going to need photographical evidence in order to verify this. The bigger the images you provide, the better.

 Yep. Sorry, I don't have any screengrabs (heh) handy (ha) at the moment, but it's there...

SW - Trash compactor scene, Han manhandles Leia to push her up on the pile, subtly making fingertip sideboob contact ("Get on top of it!")

TESB - When Leia falls back on Han on the Falcon cockpit, and when he subsequently pushes her back up ("Haven't got time for anything else!")

A YouTube channel (Almost) entirely devoted to creating animated clips of Chris Pine's face saying lines from Star Wars. As things go, that's pretty damn random. Curses, it's 3 years old, I want more of these.

Considering some of the projects Hayden's been in lately seem to go direct to video, (Frink knows what I'm talking about) it's nice to see him cast in a major production again.

 Not to be rude to him or whatever, but... why? He's terrible in everything I've seen him in (the 2 PT movies and... Jumper? Looper? ...Something like that.)

 Hayden was excellent in Shattered Glass. I only watched it to find dialog to help Frink with his edit, and it was compelling from beginning to end.

Even though I can't stand tear jerkers, (another one I endured for Frink) Hayden was great as the angsty drug abusing teen in Life As A House.

All too true. Which reminds me ...

Everyone's familiar with the Noghri from the Thrawn Trilogy, right? Well, I got to thinking about their visual appearance and noticed ...
