It's not the first time I finished second to a stone-faced inanimate object. She picks that friggin' loser over a starship captain? How the hell did she ever get elected?

Dude, I can't believe Artoo wasn't on the list to start with. I am as straight as they come, and even I can see what a sexy beast Artoo is. None of those other guys even hold a candle.
One guy holds a candle. This guy.
My theory with R2 was that he's too top heavy to be a handsome devil. But the Big Head Statue made the cut, so...
PUT HIM ON THE BOARD!

I'm gonna say Panaka. There. I said it.
Sheesh. I know two people who aren't getting my spoken word album for the holidays.
Question mark not necessary.

One of the fun things I do in light of the prequels and RotJ is watch ANH and ESB and yell out "LIE" every time Obi-Wan tells a lie or half-truth...
I could do that! Maybe I'll get in ESB:R after all...

It also shows Lucas' inability to allow the film's story to flow into revelations, and shows us his lack of faith in the audience by having Oli Wan Ricobi literally spell things out in the most banal way possible.
What's so wrong with that?

What? I don't remember any of that. Either way, I've got plenty of observations in me. Look over there, the apocalypse is waiting for us.

Luke is strong with the Force because (according to Lucas) the Force runs strong in his family.
This make Leia as (if not more) potentially ripe for turning to the dark side as Luke is, something Vader threatens to do which acts as the trigger for Luke to go ape on his dad (never a Captain Obvious around when you need one).
Your attempts to summon me will never.....aww crap.

The thing is though that having the Emperor say "the son of Skywalker" twice is just repetition that isn't needed. The original dialogue pre-2004 worked perfectly and that is how i want to return it, even though i have to substitute "Luke Skywalker" with "young Skywalker"
I can understand wanted to go back to pre-2004 dialogue. But Adywan, might I suggest a minor change?
VADER: What is thy bidding, my master?
RIC OLIE: There is a great disturbance in the Force.
VADER: I have felt it.
RIC OLIE: We have a new enemy -- George Lucas.
VADER: Yes, my master.
RIC OLIE: He will try to keep me out of Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith.
VADER: He's just a hack. Spielberg can no longer help him.
RIC OLIE: The Force is strong with him. The son of Lucas must not become a filmmaker who answers to no one.
VADER: If he could be turned, he would become a powerful ally.
RIC OLIE: Yes. Yes. He would be a great asset. Perhaps we could even get him to insert me in Return of the Jedi. Can it be done?
VADER: He will join us or die, my master.

In 26 years I never heard a single complaint about the Dagobah scenes.
Have you heard nothing I've been saying? Where am I?
Ric Olie moved his post to a different thread. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Terrible. But the announcer, the sports commentator, was even worse.
But this guy? Awesome.
You haven't heard of the prequels? Go rent The Phantom Menace. It had some amazing observational acting.

Ric Olie is trying to be Mr Exposition.
Don't try to be Mr Exposition, just be Captain Obvious.
1 : a setting forth of the meaning or purpose (as of a writing)
2 a : discourse or an example of it designed to convey information or explain what is difficult to understand b (1) : the first part of a musical composition in sonata form in which the thematic material of the movement is presented (2) : the opening section of a fugue
3 : a public exhibition or show
You win that point. However:

This was quite obvious.

Don't try to be Ric Olie. Just be fishmanlee.
Bingowings said:
In a sense I don't have a problem with the basic mechanics of the romance.
(snip)
But why did they have to make it so bloody obvious?
Ric, did you write those scenes?
If I had, I would have been in those scenes. The romance would have been much better with me explaining it to those two.
satanika said:
You better pay up soon, or I'm posting pictures of Ric Olie in a metal bikini!
Darth Solo said:
Payment sent to satanika. No pictures please.
You mean I waxed my bikini area for nothing?
bkev said:
I love this new avatar, Ric!
It's a pic Panaka took of me when we took our families on vacation to Coruscant. I think it captures my "take charge" personality perfectly.
Darth Solo said:
Also Ric, to state the obvious, your avatar has shrunk.
Darth, you need more training on stating the obvious. Don't feel bad, it took me years to perfect my craft.
doubleofive said:
I'm lost. I wish we had a character that could point out the NOT obvious.
Wish I could help. If you guys ever figure out what the hell is going on, explain it to me, and then I can explain it to you.

Well, I wouldn't say no dialogue at all. You need to convey a few things with words.
Damn straight.
doubleofive said:
I knew I should have done what you did there. Call me lazy. Still the question remains: what the heck are they peering down at?!
If you had the answer, I would tell it to you.
fishmanlee said:
i have a question for you when your back on the clock
Since you've asked for information, rather than asking for an observation, I can answer this while off the clock.
fishmanlee said:
is Princess Leia distantly related? she seems to point out the obvious sometimes for example "Here They Come", "Asteroids" and "Star Destroyer".
The answer is that I have no idea. Since she never knew her mother, I couldn't tell you if we are related. However, you might be interested to know that I have released three spoken word albums featuring my greatest lines. They are titled "Here They Come", "Asteroids," and "Star Destroyer."
