Alternate scene from Star Wars:

INT: BRIEFING ROOM

Dodonna: "The battle station is heavily shielded and carries a firepower greater than half the star fleet. It's defenses..."

X-Wing pilot: "Wait, wait, wait. What did you just say?"

Dodonna: "Uh... that the battle station is heavily shielded and has lots of firepower, more than half of the... star fleet."

* Half of the pilots get up and leave *

Dodonna: "..... very... very well. I belive all those who stayed are willing to battle. So, the defen..."

* Two more pilots get up and leave *

Dodonna: * pause * "... Okay. Uh... Anyone else? No? Come on this is your chance. I'm not gonna stop my speech again."

* One more pilot gets out *

Dodonna: "Yes... Right. So, as I was saying, the defense..."

* One pilot gets back *
Pilot: "Sorry, forgot my wallet."
* Goes away *

Dodonna: "... right. Uh... Where was I... Oh yeah. A small one-man fighter should be able to penetrate the outer defense. We..."

X-Wing pilot: "Excuse me sir."

Dodonna: *annoyed* "Yes, yes, what is it now?!"

Biggs: "Can't we just evacuate now?"

Dodonna: "What?"

Biggs: "Why can't we just go away? Let's run away while we can."

Dodonna: "Are you suggesting we just abort the whole mission of destroying the death star and run away to another planet?"

Biggs: "No. No, no, no... Yes. Yes, I think that's more logic."

Luke: "I have to agree with him sir. Biggs is right, we SHOULD get out of here!"

Wedge: "Exactly! This is madness! You really want us to do that? To fight that huge freaking mad ball?!"

Biggs: "Yeah! Why should we blow up that damn thing and risk our lifes? And why are we all talking here and wasting time?! Let's get the hell out of here, it's every man for it's own!"

* All run away *

Dodonna: "No, no, wait, wait! There's not enough ships for everyone! Princess Leia, please!"

Leia: "Oh screw you, I'm getting away with Solo!"

Dodonna: "Is there any room left on the Milenium Falcon?"

Leia: "uh........ no." * runs away *


INT: DEATH STAR

Tarkin: "You may fire when ready"

* Preparations for the Death Star explosion *


INT: BRIEFING ROOM

* Dodonna crying, C3PO at his side *

Dodonna: Why did they leave us?!

C3PO: Oh dear! Look at that!

* Huge ray is coming towards them *

Dodonna: "HOLY SH..."

* they all burn into flames *


INT: OWEN LARS HOME

Luke: "Oh well, I should get back to my farm anyway... That space adventure didn't work as well as I wanted..."

Gladly we don't have any of those ethinic things here, mostly because racism and intolerance is pretty much non-existant here.

YIYF, I know what you mean. I have to listen to mundane stories and work gossips every single day. If there's anything I despise is people talking behind each other or passing those crude office gossip, stuff like "oh looks like that guy is banging that chick from that department", or "have you heard, that guy was fired because he said this to that other person", damn it I hate those little political games inside companies, people trying to get ahead of each other, bosses stabbing their workers on the back...

This is a stupid steriotype, I know two cases of mid 30s living with their parents and both are not sci fi fans or geeks or otakus or anything of the sort. All the geeks and nerds and otakus and sci fi fans I know live alone, or married, or in college somewhere, or still in high school.

Things I hate: this past week. Everything went wrong, just everything. I lost my driving license due to a speed limit radar in a place I was not awareof the speed limit and cannot appeal to the decision and will face up to $1000 in fines; at work everything that could possibly have gone wrong did; there was a energy problem where I live exactly the moment I needed to get an email - and it didnt go back until the following morning; every SINGLE time I steped out of work, my apartment, or the car, it started to rain over me, all week... Not to mention some other f**ed up personal problems I'd rather not speak here. Sometimes I wish I lived on an island like Gilligan or Tom Hanks in Cast Away and didn't have to face all those problems anymore, nor face anyone else anymore...

Yes! Exactly! Isn't it an akward, weird thing? All those people who are supposed to be professional role models, all in their suits and all ready to work and stuff, and they are all singing "happy birthday to you" in a timid way like 8 year old children, with this lousy cake someone bought on a cantina or a deli close to the office... And then either there's not enough cake for everyone, or there's plenty of cake and everyone just gets one piece and there's, like, half a cake left and no one wants it... And you have to give it to people from other sectors or other places... And when it's the boss or something like it, they all want 5 bucks to buy something to him he'll hate, like a tie or an leather cover agenda. And they always do this when you're busy, but when I have nothing to do it never happens... this one day there was half a cake left, and I took home because no one wanted it, and I didn't want to eat it, so it stayed in the fridge for like, a week or something...

LOL we should have a thread for this office insanities...

Cut scene from ROTJ:

Mon Calamari: "Now, this mission will have two teams. One team, leaded by Lando Calrisian, will atack the Death Star in a suicidal mission in which almost everyone will likely perish in flames.I kid you not, some of you might not come back. And the rest of you REALLY won't come back. The last time we battled a Death Star, only three came back, Luke, Wedge, and this other guy. Battling a huge Death Star with only X-wings and Y-wings and A-wings is a real death sentence itself.

The other team, leaded by Han Solo, will go to the Endor moon, with a nice climate and a beautiful jungle, camp there for a night, singing songs and eating marshmellows, and then proceed with a morning walk to the place where the shield generator is. There, they will place the explosives, walk away, and await for it to explode. They don't even have to fight their way into the planet, because some stupid Bothans died to bring this old code that allows anyone to land there - and don't worry, no one will go check the ship after it lands, so you may just walk away after the landing.

Now, to sort out the teams, those of you who want to go to with Lando remain seated. Those of you who want to go with Captain Solo, get up now."

* Everyone gets up *

Mon Calamari: "Oh, yes, I forgot to mention. On the Endor moon, live the cute and furry little Ewok creatures..."

* Everyone gets down *

Lando: "Ha ha, Han old buddy, I didn't know you enjoyed Ewoks humping up on your leg."

Han: "Oh you piece of s(BEEP)t!!! *Fights Lando* Come here and fight like a f(BEEP)ing man you c(BEEP)t!"

Mon Calamari: "Gentleman you cannot fight here, this is the star war room! It's a trap!"
