I have an original 1977 copy of this poster framed in my apartment. It was given to me in the early 90s by the guy who choreographed the Obi-Wan/Vader duel. He was having an operation in the hospital my Dad worked in, and my Dad mentioned I was a Star Wars nut.

Vader: There's only one way to stop the rebels - we're gonna have to cross the streams.

Yoda: Cross the streams, do not.

Vader: Why?

Yoda: Bad it would be.

What did you buy one of those for man? There is only one Mini Cooper, and it looks like this:

Not this:

I mean, the new ones aren't even bloody small!! They're the size of an average car.

And £180 for a tyre? F**k that.

Still though, you sound like you're a man in need, so I'm willing to make a sacrifice to help you out and offer you a trade - My 1985 Honda Civic for your shitty Mini. I know I'm getting a bad deal, but a friend in need...

Amen to that.
In fact, all bills suck. I am currently in a battle with my electricity supplier. It's so complicated I can't even be f**ked going into it right now, but suffice to say: THEY F**KED UP.

Yeah, maybe you're right.

Still, with all those parrallel universes out there, I'm sure 1985 has some significance.

Not just to boost the post count, but also to say 'hey, check out my post count'.

For example: Hey, post 1984, check it out. Big Brother is watching you.

Tired of learning? Cretin.

If you prefer, I could just reach 2000 posts by repeatedly writing 'I Concur' '

1983: ROTJ released.

Yeah, I was too busy answering Sybe I guessed. A quick edit though and it's fixed.

As for 1981, well, it's the year I was born. What more do I need to say?

And that ending to Timecop? Clearly the matter wasn't attempting to exist in the same space by a handshake. The elemental bonds of the atoms kept the matter from coexisting in the same space. What's up with that?

And jigawatts? What are those anyway? What's up with that?

(I could go on and on time permitting.

)

If a person develops cancer from exposure to radiation, does that cancer go away when they move away from the radiation or enter a lead lined room? No. Same deal with Supes.

Timecop, yeah, I'll give you that one.

As for Jigawatts, WHAT THE HELL IS A JIGAWATT? (Although I'm guessing it actually is scientific facts and not just a funny word invented by the writers).

EDIT:

More about Jigawatts 1
More about Jigawatts 2

Yeah, I could do that, but soon I'll be up to 2006 posts and won't be able to continue (except on a one post per year basis).

1980: Empire Strikes Back Released. Not only my personal favourite of all the Star Wars films, but one of the best sequels ever.

I can't see the video, but from your descriptions I think I've already seen it. It's from a BBC show called Dead Ringers and the impersonator is a guy called Jon Culshaw and he is brilliant. He does a great George Bush and Tony Blair.

I think he was talking about Bill and Ted's booth.

And the TARDIS actually looks like a Police Call Box, which is different to a phone booth.

And I'm just being pedantic, so sorry.
