The best hope for us is to wish SW never existed in the first place.

Dude, shut the hell up, stop moping around this forum, and go download Harmy's or dark_jedi's preservations.

Jesus Christ, yes. Stop crying. It's not the end of the world. Star Wars as we want it still exists and is still awesome. It's just not official.

LISTUS DE EXCOMMUNICATION

  • xhonzi

I don't see my name on that list! ;)

Tron: Legacy

It...  It...  It...

It had good editing.  They edited the video around the score, rather than the other way around.  Therefore, the recording versions are ALSO the film versions. :)

Hmmmm....

PENANCE!!!

 

*Looks up penance*

"The Penitent Man is humble.  Kneels before God...  KNEELS!!!"  (ducks and barrel rolls)

Thank you! :)

Sir, I must inform you that a barrel roll is horizontal. You mean something more along the lines of a somersault.

The Star Wars Pun Game

Okay, the few who've already read this know that I already had some rules in mind.  I'm changing those rules because now that I think of it, it's far roo restrictive and this thread would die quickly.  Maybe something like this has been created already, but as I always say, mine is better.  Just share with us your favorite Star Wars puns.  Here is my original example

"For now we see through a glass, darthly; but then face to face."

From the Holy Sithtures, 1 Mandalorians 13:12.

EDIT: Expanded the rules.

Ladies and gentlemen, the Admiral Ozzel of puns.

 

 

As someone who prides himself on a good pun, I honestly cannot come up with any Star Wars puns. This is a sad day.

If you need to B*tch about something... this is the place

The white man's burden.

 

Yeah, I did know that Oriental is kind of archaic and has negative connotations. I just meant they were synonyms in the way that both words included the same group of people; i.e. the Japanese, Chinese, Koreans, Vietnamese, et cetera.

If someone were to say Oriental, I wouldn't think of a Pakistani or Indian person. That was mah point there.

What was the "fatal flaw" of the Prequels if you think they sucked? (aka. Let's take a break from hating on the blu-rays)

Does anyone remember the clonewars cartoon? Not the new cgi one but the hand drawn one that came out before revenge of the sith? THAT is how the PT should have been. It actually showed a likeable anakin, a believable relationship between him and padme, and a story that was engaging and exciting.

It was basically an obvious tie-in, but that says something when the tie in is more emotionally believable than the actual product.

So does the new CGI one. The cartoons are really what the prequels should have been. Which is sad, considering the time and money Lucas used to make the prequels as opposed the the budget for these animated shows.

What's your Personal Canon?
Time

Multiverses annoy me. I don't wanna have to get into the mindset of, "okay, now in this universe, Anakin is a Rodian smuggler from Nar Shaddaa. I just have to forget everything I know about the other Anakin in the other universe who is a human Jedi from Tatooine."

I think that's why I don't read comics. Over here we have a Spiderman who has taken over for a dead Peter Parker, but wait, Peter Parker is still alive in this other universe, so it doesn't really matter. It's just confusing and annoying. Do one timeline and stick with it. If you have to make "what if" things, do a one-off piece like with Infinities so I can ignore it.
