The Imperial March
This was the procession music at my wedding reception. And if everything of John Williams’ work besides this got lost, he’d still be remembered.

I actually look forward to Scalzi’s Star Trek rant.
I wonder if it’ll hit the same ones that I would have; particularly, how every major problem in the Star Trek
Anyway, via Instapundit comes “John Scalzi’s Guide to the Most Epic FAILs in Star Wars Design.” I like this one the best, because it’s one that I didn’t think of ahead of time, but was bloody obvious once it was pointed out to me:
Lightsabers
Yes, I know, I want one too. But I tell you what: I want one with a hand guard. Otherwise every lightsaber battle would consist of sabers clashing and then their owners sliding as quickly as possible down the shaft to lop off their opponent’s fingers. You say: Lightsabers can slice through anything but another lightsaber, so what are you going to make a hand guard out of? I say: Dude, if you have the technology to make a lightsaber, you have the technology to make a light hand guard.
Well, that’s why he’s John Scalzi

Blond, Purple-Bikini Girl shot first.
Via Vodkapundit, girls in bikinis reading from Star Wars Trilogy
I suspect that at least one of the bikini-clad readers has actually watched the trilogy about twenty times. Secret geekdom is one of the tragedies of our time.

It is not the greatest video ever, by the way: there’s no bacon involved. QED.
CYV Watch – Richard Cheese’s Star Wars Cantina.
This site is, by the way, now the top Google search result for “cheesy YouTube videos.”
I’m very proud.

PS: It was almost Cheese doing “Baby Got Back.”
“Death by Tray.”
Got sent this, too: probably seen before, but still hysterical. Language warning, if you care.
Eddie Izzard
‘Star Wars: The Old Republic’ Trailer.
Just got sent this. I don’t have an XBox, and that’s probably just as well.
Oh, crud. It’s on the PC.
HAHAHAHAH! Good one, Ain’t it Cool News.
(H/T Ace) You almost had me believing that Lucas was going to do a Star Wars
Picture via Encyclopedia Dramatica, a site that I will never, ever admit to having read in any other context. Just like the rest of the Internet.
Well, the prequel trilogy, at least.
Considerably messier, but then the prequel trilogy could have stood some extra messiness. Heck, this would have been an improvement
The latest Darths & Droids explains it all.
[UPDATE]: Fixed.
This comic is clearly therapy for David Morgan-Mar. Because he so desperately needs Attack of the Clones
Personally, when I get a moment of Lovecraftian existential horror at the meaninglessness of the universe that is exemplified by the prequel trilogy
The Darth Giger gave it a run for its money, though.
I was sent an email on this Star Wars
I’d like to note for the record that the original has always kind of haunted me. Something about the endless Friday night at 3 AM that it represents. This, on the other hand, does not.
