LucasFilm Auctioning Star Wars Memorabilia

Posted by chrisd on from the these-are-not-the-auctions-you-are-looking-for dept.

Captain Chad writes: "LucasFilm has donated some items to eBay's "Auction for America". They include a lightsaber used by Ray Park (Darth Maul) and a stormtrooper helmet used in The Empire Strikes Back and in Return of the Jedi. Check out the list of auction items! I think some of the bids will get astronomical. Would anyone be willing to give me a few hundred thousand dollars so I can get the lightsaber?"

    Dear Professor Linux,

    How can I keep from soiling myself in indignation every time I hear the French described as "cheese-eating surrender monkeys"?

    If someone gave ME a couple hundred thousand dollars, I'd buy or build something slightly more badass AND more usefull than a NON-FUNCTIONAL lightsaber. Besides, every burgler within a hundred miles would be gunning for your house if word got out that you had an item like that :P

    You obviously fell asleep before the climax of RotJ. Surely it was due to all that Ewok nonsense.

    Anyway, to catch you up, the Emperor surprised Luke with the fact that his friends were walking into a trap, since the battle station was "fully armed an operational". I'm not sure what that badly animated leech or whatever it was on the side of the Emperor's face had to do with it.

    Anyway, Han was a little behind getting the shield down, and Lando realized that it was a trap, since the Rebel's sensors were being jammed. He was too late though, and a lot of brave rebels died at the hands of the Empire with their big green blaster. (BTW, the colors of the blasters always seemed wrong to me. The sabers made sense. Bad guys red, good guys blue, youths green. What gives with that?)

    Fortunately, Han got the sheild generator down and Lando was able to blow up the second Death Star just as Luke escaped with Vader's (now Anikin again) body.

    You should watch it again. It is on VHS now, so you can fast-forward through all the cutesy Ewok crap.
