Well, a lot of people do "hang out" there. It's those of us who really enjoy writing, editing, correcting, etc. Plus, we have some interesting discussions there. I hang out and edit star wars articles, mostly. I go by "The Wookieepedian."

Oops, sorry, Wikipedia even explains that all us guys want to do it at one time or another, so it's normal I guess.

Yeah, there was some dude on Wikipedia a while back who redirected hundreds of pages to that image. And that was how I ran across the shock that was that image. If only I had as much flexibility as the guy in that image...

What's sad is that I've seen an "anti-masturbatoin" page that took itself seriously.

LOL! Yeah, Wikipedia is quite honest and descriptive with a lot of sex-related subjects. They have few barriers when it comes to that stuff. There is even an actual picture on the "autofellatio" article, of a man sucking his own dick!

What's wrong with political films? To me, that gives Star Wars even more depth.

Once again, he has stated multiple times that the dialogue, style, etc, is all based on cliches and old movies. It's to be expected.

Yeah, but the scene un ROTS didn't help things. Luke spent more time with Padme than Leia. In fact, Leai never even came as close to Leia as her feet. And, as Padme died, Luke was right beside her. WTF was Lucas thinking? He could have done it exactly the other way around and it would have worked better.

OK, I know this has been discussed in another thread, but this possible continuity issue is driving me nuts. Here are the two official quotes we have regarding this

"The part that I had never really developed is the death of Luke and Leia's mother. I had a back story for her in earlier drafts, but it basically didn't survive. When I got to JEDI, I wanted one of the kids to have some kind of memory of her because she will be a key figure in the new episodes I'm writing."

--George Lucas, Star Wars-The Return Of The Jedi: Annotated Screenplay, 1997

"Leia's recollection as described in Return of the Jedi have no inherent flaws and are valid given the greater context of the saga. But I suspect those looking for contradictions always find them."

--Rick McCallum

Besides, it was inferred, at least from my point of view, that Dooku/Tyrannus was partly responsible for the misdirection when Jango Fett named Tyrannus as his recruiter.

Give me mysteries. It doesn't all have to be spoon-fed to us. Let us be just as much in the dark about the whole truth as the Jedi and the Senate were.

I agree. After all, I thought all those PT haters had a problem with Lucas showing them everything. Well, you've got your wish now.
