    I think the best part of the trailer is the Jar-Jar decapitation scene...oh wait, that was from a dream I had last night.

    Now where did I put that Princess Amadala blow-up doll...

    I can't imagine how badly Lucas is going to mess up how Anakin becomes Darth Vader.

    Maybe replace his light saber with a walkie talkie?

    It's nice that you have to be a member of some shitty online Star Wars site (or one of its affiliates) to watch an advertisement for the new Star Wars movie. It's like paying to beta test a new version of Daikatana.

    After Queen Padme turns Anakin's ardent requests for sex down for the umpteenth time, he attempts to use 'the FORCE' and due to his raging male hormone levels, when she blasts him with a friggin laser - he spontaneously catchs fire and jumps into the Emporers daily meglomania booster cocktail that was sitting in the balcony below in order to put himself out, and thus earned himself a life sentence of working for the Emporer in order to just pay for the Emporers' ruined shirt...
