Watching All Six Star Wars Movies Simultaneously
DavidSJ writes "WeirdHat created a video of all Star Wars movies being played simultaneously, side-by-side, and then watched it. Some notable finds: the first appearance of Palpatine in The Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones is on the same frame. Also, the Jedi Rocks music in Episode VI provides amusing accompaniment to the Anakain/Obi-Wan vs. Dooku fight in Episode III."
Guess he also got a nice little hemorrhage ...

But i assume his left eye went blind from episodes 1,2,3 being played simultaneously?
I mean, how did this guy pay attention to all 6 screens at once, if he has a 1-track mind??
I wonder how long before someone "discovers" a Da Vinci-code-syle pattern in the Star Wars movies fortelling the future of civilization? After all, Star Wars is this generation's Bible - complete with people who only acknowlegde the divinity of the "Old Testament" (original trilogy) ;)

Seriously though, this'd be a cool thing to watch, but distribution has got to be WAY illegal.
You are not the customer.
Whatever man. That fucking car is still cool.
I still have more fans than freaks. WTF is wrong with you people?
I do that every night!

Is that WierdHat hasn't been laid since episode IV.
That's sorta redundant...
Did it at our Halloween party one year (I was Dorothy). People who remembered the next day said there were some interesting things, but nothing astonishing. I don't remember any of it.
Ce n'est pas un vrai mouvement de robot!
Think about it: It's a funny movie, but it has no gags or outright jokes. It's a romantic movie, with only like 2 quick kisses. It's even an action movie, but there aren't even all of the expolosions like in a Lethal Weapon movie. Every good guy gets the crap kicked out of him, and you still leave it with a hopeful feeling. I have only discussed the story, and haven't even begin to touch the vast differences between the beauty of the worlds created by these people.
I realize that you have a right to an opinion, but I think you were out of line using words like thoughtless or stupefied, especially if you enjoy spending lots of time on other activities, like TV or video games.
I cried real tears when Li Mu Bai died.

This is the first time I've ever laughed at the department. Bravo, Zonk.

I'd feel really geeky after doing something like that.
... now I feel geeky again.
Kind of like the feeling I got when I made a PHP script to automatically download my pr0n.

Hey, I get modded down every time I remind people that Shakespeare's plays are nothing but overblown 17th century soap opera.

Ooo man the floppy drive is broken. No wait. The computer is just upside down.

C-3PO was a pussy anyway. Everybody knows that.
But KITT would probably arrive in Mos Eisley and his wheels would do that Back To The Future 2 hover-conversion thing, and he'd fly into space and blow away some TIE fighters with his hidden laser cannons and stuff. But he'd probably wind up getting swayed by the Dark Side of the Force, and become Darth Vader's personal fighter. But he'd watch Vader's back - there'd be none of that crap with the Millennium Falcon flying out of nowhere to shoot his wingman, or his other dur-head wingman running into Vader, KITT would do some evasion and blow Luke to hell, then turn around and blow away Solo and the Wookie - and then Lando, for good measure. I know Lando hadn't gotten involved in the story yet at that point but KITT would've been all over that. It's called a pre-emptive strike. AI knows how to get it done.

Too bad their clever marketing tactic was only unveiled 23 years after it was released to the public, in 1995, when a stoner was listening to Dark Side on headphones while his little sister watched Wizard of Oz.
Some lesser known discoveries by this pioneer include the correlation between 'Detachable Penis' by King Missile and the trailer for 'The Crying Game', and the uncanny choreography of Slayer's 'Reign in Blood' with the second half of 'Shallow Hal'. Try it yourself, you'll be AMAZED!

Surely you mean watching *THREE* Star Wars movies side-by-side.
There's only three. Right...?

I saw Star Wars (I suppose they're calling it "ANH" or Episode 4 these days, although there was no hint of that in the titles at the time) in the theaters when it first came out, and it was really cool!. But I was 14 at the time, so that's to be expected. Now? Meh. The writing is vapid, the acting (with notable exceptions for the older actors) is wooden, and there are plot holes you could drive a truck through. The special effects were good though.
And the brethren went away edified.
And here's my all-time personal favorite nerdy accomplishment, a functioning LEGO robot that solves a Rubik's Cube - really.
I wouldn't want to disappoint you, so I'll mod you down as soon as I finish this post! ...Aw, crap.

Hmmm. I wonder happens in the other five movies during the frames when Princess Leah is in a bikini there on Jabba's throne? Guess they didn't notice the other five screens?
The Luddites were ahead of their time.
