I'm sorry, but when I saw ROTJ on May 25th 1983, I REALLY wasn't sitting there thinking to myself - "WAIT A GODDAMN MINUTE- WHY DOES HE HAVE EYEBROWS?!" LOL

If the eyebrows were OK back then, they're OK now. :-P

Without getting gruesome, do burn victims ever regrow hair?

And I doubt Lucas had the Anakin BBQ we got in ROTS in the back of his mind during production of the sequels.

The scars on the back of Vader's head glimpsed in ESB looked more like injuries from a  weapon or crash than being burned.

Supposedly, the backstory was that Vader and Ben had a duel and Vader fell into a volcano, and then it became a lava planet or whatever in ROTS. But falling into a volcano doesn't necessarily = no eyebrows, lol. I'm sure some burn victims re-grow hair in areas where the hair follicles weren't totally destroyed.

I'm totally willing to suspend disbelief enough to accept that the back of his head was more injured than his face. I mean, the skin on his face didn't really look like a burn victim's either & he has lips, right?! Don't most people with severe facial burns loose their lips? Maybe in the next EXTRA-extra-special-edition they should digitally remove his lips!

Oh god, what if Lucas sees that post, he'll do it. ;) Or replace Sebastian Shaw with Jar Jar.

Lucas should have had Jar Jar as Indiana Jones sidekick in Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, and his gun should have been replaced with a walky talkie by Spielberg.

Ever see the youtube videos for if george lucas directed lord of the rings, or how he might fuck up Indiana Jones 4.  "Star Wars is my story, just like my house is my house.  Other people think i should paint it green i'll paint it red.  I'll paint it jar jar".lol

So, I'm the only one who watched the second Robot Chicken special last night?

It was practically a love letter to all the things we've nitpicked about all these years! :)

So it was on last night?

I thought it was supposed to be but I thought it would be all over the interwebs by now and I've seen nothing. Yes I'm a non-American so I couldn't watch this live.

I was looking forward to this. It's not like its an obscure program.

This statement just makes me want to watch it even more.

I've found it and downloaded it, will watch soon.

edit: Oh that was good.

Dr Ball MD: "Good God man! I'm a doctor not a savage!"

and....

"Well, I guess I'll have the insensitive bitch with a side of fuck you!"

Oh and Bossk's good manners. All had me rolling with laughter.

And none of those lines are spoliers because you really need to see them in context.

I particularly liked the "take your kid to see you at work" bit :)

I saw the original theatrical release of the Old Trilogy on the big screen and I'm proud of it...
How did I accomplish that (considering my age) is my secret...
