I agree for star wars though multiverse is daft. so is time travel.


Too late! It's been done!! BWA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!

When you are trying to write a cohesive saga of 9 films, a family saga like the Skwalker saga it makes sense to not do multiverse


Well, I think I can speak for everyone - pro-SW Multiverse and not - in that no one expects or even wants the films themselves to delve into parallel universes.

I never noticed Jabba's minions have their own bongs. This puts the palace scenes in a whole new light! ;)


Now that George thinks about it, he realizes those scenes aren't very kid-friendly and might encourage children to experiment with drugs when they get older. So expect the bong-smoking minions to be replaced with bubble-blowing minions when ROTJ is eventually released on 3Disc in 2029.

It's like when a production studio sends out casting calls for an "Adam Carolla type" and then when Adam Carolla shows up to audition, they reject him and cast someone almost exactly like him, but who isn't him.


Tyler Labine is sometimes a better Jack Black than Jack Black...

 

My personal canon is the Original Trilogy.

Prequels/Clone Wars are part of the "Lame Universe". In the regular Star Wars universe, there is no Qui-Gon Jinn. He therefore does not encounter Jar-Jar, find a significantly different Lame Universe Anakin or train Obi-Wan to be a dumbass who can't find a planet. In the real, yet non-existent prequels Yoda trains Obi-Wan, who then finds the REAL Anakin, who becomes the bad mofo in the Vader suit...

The force is not nearly as powerful in the Lame Universe because its power comes from bacteria rather than a mystical energy field that binds the universe together. Consequently a room full of Lame Universe Jedi are unable to sense a Sith two feet away and can be killed rather easily by deliberately retarded clone troops. Pointy lightsabers, different fighting styles, the possibility of the dark side being stronger, nonsensical chronology and continuity errors - all explained!


This is one of the reasons why I want the Star Wars Universe to really be part of a Star Wars Multiverse.

Actually, wasps freak me out twice as much as bees.

Wasps don't hunt in packs though. One wasp sting, one big splat, no more wasp.

This is a bunch of bees using the "thermal defense" where they mob up on a wasp and use their body heat to kill it to death.

THAT is the stuff of nightmares.

I'd say the Asian Giant Hornet they're ganging up on there is really the stuff of nightmares.

*shudder*

I don't really mind bees. They don't bother me and they're actually kind of cute.

Yellowjackets on the other hand ... God, I hate those bastards. My parents used to be orchard labourers, and since they didn't trust babysitters, me and my sister would have to spend almost all of our free time in amongst the apple trees. The wasps live in the damn trees, really, and it's hard to miss droves of wasps eating away at discarded apples on the ground during the summer. I used to go around with bare feet as a kid, even in the orchards, and I ended up stepping on the motherfuckers a few times, and got stung for it.

I still not free of the bastards, though. They like the area around my home, and I'm always seeing them flying through the air and finding their nests outside the house in every possible nook and cranny.
