Why is "General Star Wars Discussion" so dead?

LUKE trudges out of the homestead, kicking the sand in frustration as the suns set. OWEN LARS has just told him he is stuck on TATTOOINE for another year. LUKE is sure that he is doomed to a life of farming.
As “Jedi Rocks” plays softly, LUKE looks out into the setting suns. On the face of each sun is a “ghosted” face of ANAKIN SKYWALKER on the left and PADME SKYWALKER on the right. In the space between is the “ghosted” face of WATTO.

This is comedy gold right here.  As the owner of the only Watto Fan Site ever (RIP Geocities), imagining Ghost Watto floating between the twin suns with Anakin and Padme's faces on them is PRICELESS.  Tomorrow, I shall make this image a reality.

SPOILER ALERT!

Have you guys seen TMBTM's War of the Stars?  It would have been funny if he actually did this, except if used the faces of Beru and Owen (and no Watto).  It would have been funny as hell, if he did this.  Unfortunately he did not do this.  I repeat, HE DID NOT DO THIS.

I'm just repeating this (full quote this time) because I honestly don't understand.

SO would 90% Cgi and jar jar. Wooden Hayden emo whiney douche and epic fail scripts translate into radio?

I get your second sentence.  But what does your first post have to do with the thread?  I'm just confused.  So would 90% Cgi and jar jar what?

Nick name for little orphan Ani.

...or maybe just Anakin

Why?  Wouldn't that get confusing?  I mean, if his name and his nickname are the same, well...I don't know, but sure seems like it would be confusing.

Ok, for example, let's say Anakin hasn't seen me for 20 years.  All his friends call him A-Walk, but acquaintances and introduced strangers call him Anakin.  So if someone comes up and calls him Anakin, he doesn't have to worry if it is a friend he's forgotten.  Likewise, if someone calls him A-Walk and he doesn't recognize him, it gives him more time to rack his brain trying to remember who this is.

Now then, like I said, let's say Anakin hasn't seen me for 20 years, and I come up and say, "Hey Anakin, you look like hell, did you fall in a lava river or just forget to put makeup on?"  Now, if his nickname is A-Walk, he knows he can just cut me down with his lightsaber.  But if his nickname is Anakin, he's thinking, "oh shit, do I know this guy?"  He can't just strike me down, because I might be Padme's poolboy and she's going to be pissed if she has to find a new one.  Meanwhile, as he's debating all this in his head, I take out one of those big oversized boulders you see on The Road Runner and I smash him real good, then steal his car.

I hope this was helpful.
