I'm a Star Wars Junkie. I've fallen into the merchandising trap. I just went out and bought 2 Star Wars magazines, and I stopped at Taco Bell to pick up my second cup topper(Darth Maul) and a Darth Maul poster. I've got Star Wars all over my room...and I've been known to imitate Jar Jar Binks(with some level of acurracy, I might add).

Help!

That's okay, Jeff. Everybody has got into it. I went and spent money on empty cups @ Taco Bell because I didn't have the Anakin Skywalker one. And as for the Jar Jar Binks thing, watch the latest episode of South Park ("Me sa Jakov") So I must say, Don't feel bad.

Lancelot: Ask the questions bridgekeeper
Bridgekeeper: What is your name.
Lancelot: I am Lancelot of Camelot.
Bridgekeeper: What is your quest
Lancelot: I seek the holy grail.
Bridgekeeper: What is your favourite colour?
Lancelot: Blue.
Bridgekeeper: Right! Off you go.
Lancelot: Oh, thank you.

Well, it wasn't that big a deal until you said you imitate Binks. Now we just have to kill you. :-)

I do a passable Yoda and Chewbacca, (and if I put my head in a small metal trash can, I sound like JEJ as Darth Vader,) but no other characters.

No, I don't put my head in a trash can often. :P

One should not indulge in the purchase of merchandise material depicting or including the likeness of persons and artefacts as portrayed in a decidedly sub-standard movie!!

Jar Jar? kill kill kill kill kill kill kill kill kill kill kill kill kill kill kill

BTW I'm bad at impressions. My brother did a good yoda several times in the past. Of course, my brother can do everything I can't, except whistle. I just can't whistle.

*waves his arm and turn into Yoda*

*points at Jeff* Evil Binks is. Imitate him you have. Die you must.

Yeah, I bought a magazine before the movie came out. And that's about it.

HEY!!!!
*ahem* Leave Jeff alone, if you don't mind...I'd like my boyfriend to stay in one piece, thank you very much.

And JarJar is cool. PTHPT! =�~

When the face of Obi-Wan the younger appears on my potato crisps, I start wondering if it's gone too far.... seriously.

However, don't feel bad Jeff..... I've been known to talk like Yoda for long periods of time.. (granted the longest time I did that, I was high *shudders*), and can also do a fairly good Chewiespeak when the need arises.

I still say the best thing about the original movies was Leia... Especially in Return of the Jedi, in Jaba's palace......... *lets that trail off into the gutter*

Dumping Jar Jar into a vat of burning tar after beating him severely, showing him a CBC drame, and making him listen to country music for three days is too kind.

Me: Oh, I agree. I think they're spending too much time together, that is of course, if you catch my drift.
Asher: I think he's *ucking her, and he's cheating on his wife, and he's risking his marriage, and if his wife finds out about it she'll leave him and take their son, and his life will be ruined. If you catch my drift...

I have to admit, George Lucas did a GOOD THING casting Ewan MacGreggor...*drools* Uhhh...

And I too am suffering from the same horrid affliction as Jeff, sans Jar-Jar addiction, of course. (Die Jar-Jar, die!) I've since becoming infected collected every SW game I can find...it all started innocently with Rogue Sqaudron, but that led to Pod Racer, then X-Wing Alliance, then X-Wing vs. Tie fighter...

I've also become an obvious SW addict, as (without me even asking) people have started to give me SW things. *L* My step-mom brought me a poster home from her latest trip to Walmart...I also bought the soundtrack, and have agreed to see the movie (yet again) with my dad when he gets home from Hawaii. Oh, and has anyone found out where I can get one of those Naboo pistol super-soakers? Prolly at Toys 'R' Us, ya think?

I love Jar jar... he's phunny... I think him and Yoda should hook up in an episode and try to communicate w/each other... that would be a riot!!!

ever wonder why abbreviation is such a long word?

Such an event would send me over the edge, on a rampage that wouldn't end until large amounts of blood had been spilled. Most likely mine.

Jake Lloyd has that awful "All-
American cute" hairdo all little boys in films seem to have. Except for black boys, for obvious reasons :]
It's like they put a flowerpot on his head upside down and cut around it.. and it looks awful.

Worst spoken line by Jake Lloyd:

"We gotta do something R2!"

Posted by Diane (Member # 53) on :

It sure looks far better than that porcupine Jedi haircut he got at the end. :�
