My main beef with the change is the fact that the new ESB Emperor looks no more like the ROTJ Emperor than the original ESB Emperor did. My secondary Beef is the crappy new dialogue, followed closely by Ian's below-par performance. If Lucas is so obsessed with continuity, why didn't he take the time to make The new Emperor match the ROTJ Emperor?

2004 emperor looks like a turtle, and neither looks nor sounds anything like the ROTJ Emperor, who is clearly the best. I don't know who they hired to do the Make up on Sith and the 2004 ESB, but they must have been smoking crack, and sharing it with Ian, causing him to forget how to act. Just like I cannot see the CGI Yoda and the puppet Yoda as the same character, I cannot reconcile the 2004 or Sith Emperor with the ROTJ Emperor. I try, but I can't.

That's fair enough, but you're still a teenybopper, just like the girls who think every new release from (insert crappy boyband here) is a musical masterpiece.

You have been into Star Wars since, what, '99? Star Wars has pretty much been in everyone's face since then. I wonder if you will still be as in love with it in 20 years when the hype has died as most of us O-OT fans are.

The slave might have spent it on a slap up meal and some hookers for all we know. Saying he would have passed it along to his offspring is an assumption. I think the money should be given as a symbolic gesture to some kind of scheme or project aimed at promoting true equality. And I don't mean some stupid gimmick like an 'I love black people day', I mean an actual government funded project with serious commitment from all involved. Exactly what that is, I don't know, but I don't see why somebody should be able to go and buy themselves a new BMW courtesy of the government because their great grandfather had a bad life. What happened back then is awful, and I am ashamed to be a white westerner at times because of the way we have treated (and in some cases continue to treat) other nations, but this just smacks of people cashing in to me.

Well, most people here are familiar with the classics, like ‘Bollocks’ and ‘mate’. ‘Git’ is also one and ‘Nutter’ is the same as saying ‘that guy’s nuts’ – ‘that guy’s a nutter!’ Arse is our version of Ass, but it can be adapted into ‘stop arsin’ around’ or ‘I can’t be arsed’ (meaning I can’t be arsed to get out of bed and go to work’. Wank means to masturbate so calling someone a wanker is an insult, as is calling someone a tosser. Getting drunk is getting pissed. ‘Banging on’ is to talk incessantly and uninterestingly, eg ‘my wife won’t stop banging on about the bloody dishes’. Calling someone a ‘bell-end’ is pretty insulting. If someone is a bit shady, or there's just something not quite right about them, you can say they are 'dodgy' (you can also say stuff like 'I've got a dodgy leg'). It's not really an insult but I've never heard it anywhere but here. That’s all I can think of right now, most of your American insults are used here too. When you’ve written the play, run it by me and I will UK it up for you.

I was a very happy person. My wonderful girlfriend and I had been dating
for over a year, and so we decided to get married.

There was only one thing bothering me ... it was her beautiful younger
sister.

My prospective sister-in-law was twenty-two, wore very tight miniskirts and
generally was braless. She would regularly bend down when she was near me,
and I always got more than a pleasant view of her anatomy. It had to be
deliberate.

She never did it when she was near anyone else. One day "little" sister
called and asked me to come over to check the wedding invitations.

She was alone when I arrived, and she whispered to me that she had feelings
and desires for me that she couldn't overcome. She told me that she wanted
to make love to me just once before I got married and committed my life to
her sister. Well, I was in total shock, and couldn't say a word. She said,
"I'm going upstairs to my bedroom, and if you want one last wild fling,
just come up and get me." I was stunned
and frozen in shock as I watched her go up the stairs. When she reached
the top she pulled off her panties and threw them down the stairs at me. I
stood there for a moment, then turned and made a beeline straight to the
front door.

I opened the door, and headed straight towards my car. Lo and behold, my
entire future family was standing outside, all clapping! With tears in his
eyes, my father-in-law hugged me and said,

"We are very happy that you have passed our little test.....we couldn't ask
for a better man for our daughter, welcome to the family."

And the moral of this story is: Always keep your condoms in your car!

Good point. Why steal a DVD when you can downlaod the DVD rip anyway? That seems so pointless.

Because it comes with a nice cover making it more attractive to the person you sell it to to fund your crack habit.

Was that really the first Death Star in ROTS?

The one in ROTS is a perfect sphere, ANH is slightly oblate.

The Great Weapon's superlaser dish is smaller and closer to the equator that in ANH.

To chage that would require a rebuild of an ungodly scale. Inconsistencies between the OT and PT? Never!

I guess I'll do what others have been politely hinting at for all of you that don't seem to get it.

In the commentary track on 'Sith' which is about as canon as it gets, GEORGE FUCKING LUCAS SAYS THAT IT IS THE DEATH STAR FROM STAR WARS.

Can it get any more clear?
Exactly!! The prequels are shite. Forget them, ignore them, they will make you insane.
