    Ahhh, "Star Wars Knobs"

    It's good to see, someone has finally identified who the knobs in the film were ;)

    And perhaps if you don't find this funny, it's because it's more a British term then an american. Calling someone a "knob" that is...

    Now realize this is coming from a lamer who actually paid a small pile of money for a sealed Tatooine Skiff... This is just insane.

    We really promise that thing with N*SYNC was just a joke! Really, look, we're cool! We're rockers! Check out our rebellious Star Wars guitar line. Please check out my next movie, so my daughter can go to an upscale liberal arts college like Sarah Lawrence. Don't make us go back on our word and release Sith fishnet belly shirts and "Moons of Endor" hotpants. We'll do it. We're whores.

  11. Some Things These Guitars don't do or are not. by DigitalHiatus · · Score: 2, Funny

    Does not turn into a light saber.

    It is not an atuhentic guitar from Yoda's hair band days.

    Turn into a drone.

    Screaming "Luke, I am your Father!" is not a hit song title.

    What makes you think the evil galactic empire is evil? Look - They were quite right to be concerned about a bunch of upstarts trying to ruin the stability of the empire. What happened in the end? A bunch of terrorists destroyed a major government installation.

    It's the name isn't it. The really need to get some PR people in to chage it from the Evil Galactic empire to the Fluffy Galactic Empire.

    See, the bad guys are the ones that had the cool masks and uniforms. The good guys were usually in some form of tattered tunic with at most a belt for accessorizing. How can that compare to laquer black with lights and a cape? (Not to mention, a really cool respirator sound, but I don't think that will come through too well in the painting)

    Many of you may be aware that during the production of Return of the Jedi the title Revenge of the Jedi was used to mislead knock-off merchandise manufactures.

    Lucas has pulled this old trick out of the bag. Let me be the first to announce that the actual title of Star Wars: Episode II is to be Attack of the Marketing Drones .
