Screw Star Wars quotes! My personal fav from the sci fi genre:

Dark Helmet: Who made that man a gunner?

Maj. Asshole: I did, sir. He's my cousin.

Dark Helmet: Who is he?

Col. Sandurz: He's an Asshole, sir.

Dark Helmet: I know that. What's his name?

Col. Sandurz: That is his name, sir. Asshole, Major Asshole.

Dark Helmet: And his cousin?

Col. Sandurz: He's an Asshole too, sir. Gunner's Mate, First Class, Philip Asshole.

Dark Helmet: How many Assholes we got on this ship, any how?

Everyone: Yo!

Dark Helmet: I knew it. I'm surrounded by Assholes. Keep firing, Assholes!

I want, but....

I really would like to own all the star wars movies ever in one giant dvd box set of super awesome. I don't even like eps 1-3, but the geek in me must own them. However, there is one problem.

GREEDO SHOOTS FIRST!

FUCK THAT.

I know it's super nerdy to complain about it, but I'm not willing to pay for a copy of the movie if that's the way it's going to be. Solo is supposed to kill him in cold blood.

Lucas, if you want my cash you're going to have to release the real deal. Spielberg, you too. I didn't buy none of your walkie talkie E.T. shit. Good thing I still have the real deals on VHS. But still, DVD would be nice.

Man, I am such a freakin' fanboy sometimes.

Re:So has he edited Jar Jar into all three films?

Actually the secret is this: Lucas has "artistically" re-edited the scene yet again. Now Han and Greedo hug each other and Greedo keels over from a heart attack after being overcome with emotion that they're no longer enemies.....

Han shoots first dammit!

Slow-witted guy eating donut: "You wanna watch the new Star Wars movie?"

Guy wearing scarf: "Oh, puh-lease! The new Star Wars movies blow! People were not meant to see movies with good special effects. People need to see strings, rubber suits, and that shit."

Digs out worn VHS copy of the original Star Wars movie.

"What is that?"

"This, my friend, is the only version of Star Wars I will touch," he says while lovingly stroking the VHS tape.

"Is it the THX remastered version?"

"No! I just -- it's the original Star Wars movie on VHS. It allows me to watch the only decent movie ever committed to celluloid."

"Celluloid?"

"Yessss!"

"Does it have computer effects?"

"Jesus! Just watch. It's so pure it hurts ..."

Screen zooms in to a rubber suited alien flopping around a dingy sound stage threatening a young Harrison Ford. A man in a metal robot suit starts prat-falling on the scene.

The fact is, the new Star Wars movies are just as good as the old ones. Complainers were just 20 years younger when they saw the originals.
