BEN: Obi-Wan Kenobi...Obi-Wan? Now thats a name I haven't heard in a
long time...a long time.

LUKE: I think my uncle knew him. He said he was dead.

BEN: Oh, he's not dead, not...not yet.

LUKE: You know him!

R2: Beep Beep Boop Beep!! ( I know him...Oi Obi wan, it's me R2! Oi! Oi! Obi Wan...It's me...you rude bastard, and after all the adventures we've had you act like you dont know me..asshole)

BEN: Well of course, of course I know him. He's me! I haven't gone by the name Obi-Wan since oh, before you were born.

LUKE: Then the droid does belong to you.

BEN: Don't seem to remember ever owning a droid. Very interesting...


BEN: I think we better get indoors. The Sandpeople are easily startled but they will soon be back and in greater numbers.


LUKE: Threepio!

OWEN: Well, he'd better have those units in the south range repaired be midday or there'll be hell to pay!




LUKE: Wait, there's something dead ahead on the scanner. It looks like our droid...hit the accelerator.

LUKE: Hey, whoa, just where do you think you're going

3PO: Master Luke here is your rightful owner. We'll have no more of this Obi-Wan Kenobi jibberish...and don't talk to me about your mission, either. You're fortunate he doesn't blast you into a million pieces right here.

Don't get me wrong man, I do like living in the UK, it's just sometimes this stupid country gets me down. And the lack of sunshine doesn't help much. I think I suffer frm SAD.

I think it's coz I'm moving house and it's costing me a f***ing bomb, that I'm feeling down.

Ignore me....it's that time of the month!

Same thing with Australian movies in the US - The Castle, a great Australian comedy (with its comedy based entirely in how ridiculously over-Australian the main characters are), had a lot of the jokes and slang changed for American audiences. I don't know whether or not American audiences found it funny or not, but Americans that I knew who visited here had a blast watching it in its purest form. The thing with some of these movies is, if you don't get the slang, you won't get the jokes - and in the case of The Castle - the slang was the joke. Of course, you Poms wouldn't have a problem with it, and nor do we with your stuff. Australians too are familiar with most forms of Western slang, due to frequent exposure to both American and British media (although a British ex-patriat in Australia recently invited me to his "gaff" which I could only determine from the context, meant his "house"!).

I've wondered recently if they made any changes to the American version of Wolf Creek - boy did that do wonders for Australia's tourism industry - now I don't even want to trek out to central Australia!


I love Australia - Shame they won't let me live there, or USA come to think of it.

Damn me and my wild, reckless youth. Just because I done a few naughty things when I was younger, looks like I'll have to stay in this bloody shit hole of a country!

AUNT BERU: Luke? Luke!

LUKE: All right, I'll be right there, Aunt Beru.

3PO: I'm sorry, sir, but he appears to have picked up a slight flutter.

LUKE: Well, see what you can do with him. I'll be right back.

3PO:Just you reconsider playing that message for him.

R2: Beep

3PO: No, I don't think he likes you at all.

R2: Beep

3PO: No, I don't like you either.

R2: Booop

LUKE: I wonder who she is. It sounds like she's in trouble. I'd better play back the whole thing.

3PO: He says the restraining bolt has short circuited his recording system. He suggests that if you remove the bolt, he might be able to play back the entire recording.

LUKE: H'm? Oh, yeah, well, I guess you're too small to run away on me if I take this off! Okay.

LUKE: There you go.

R2: Beep (sucka)

LUKE: Is there more to this recording?

R2: BEEP WHISTLE BEEP (get your fucking hands off me farmboy)

3PO: Behave yourself, Artoo. You're going to get us in trouble. It's all right, you can trust him. He's our new master.

R2: BEEP WHISTLE BEEP BEEP (piss of golden bollox)

3PO: He says he's the property of Obi-Wan Kenobi, a resident of these parts. And it's a private message for him. Quite frankly, sir I don't know what he's talking about. Our last master was Captain Antilles, but with what we've been through, this little R2 unit has become a bit eccentric.

LUKE: Obi-Wan Kenobi? I wonder if he means old Ben Kenobi?

Broadband for the UK'ers out there - Advice!

I shall be moving house in a few months and shall need to get re-connected.
Currently I'm with NTL and have the 10meg broadband, but bollox if I'm paying £38 for that shit anymore. It used to be ok but now, man, I have nothing but grief.
Anyhow, anyone from the UK out there using something other than NTL that is good, reliable, hassle free and a decent price??

Many thanks
