30 Years of LucasFilm Staff Christmas Cards

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the tis-the-season-to-blah-blah-blah dept.

An anonymous reader found that "For the last 30 years, Lucasfilm has created special holiday greeting cards for its employees and business partners. For the first time ever, we have compiled most of the Star Wars-themed Holiday Cards on one page." My favorite is 2005. That would make a cool poster or something.

    Gotta love the caroling stormtroopers. Although, the mental image of them singing in that special stormtrooper way is now firmly lodged in my mind's ear..

    "Deck the halls with"
    KSHHHHT
    "Boughs of holly,"
    KSHHHHT
    "Fa la la la la,"
    KSHHHHT
    "La la, la la.."

    Apparently, George Lucas sends the same card every year. He just adds more special effects.

    Knowing George Lucas, he'll be remailing the same Christmas cards 20 years later after they've been reworked to show his original vision....

    Should have had Obi-Wan pop up next to them, using the force to make them sing. Then your mental image could have been:

    Obi-Wan (quietly, slowly waving his hand): "Deck the halls with"

    Stormtroopers (loudly, in unison): KSHHHHT "Deck the halls with"

    Obi-Wan: (again, quietly, slowly waving his hand), "Boughs of holly"

    Stormtroopers (loudly, in unison): KSHHHHT "Boughs of holly"

    etc.

    It's for "Life Day."

    And when are we going to get a Star Wars Holiday Special Special Edition? C'mon Lucas, I want to see Bea Arthur shoot first!

    Yes, truly you've painted a picture of a well-adjusted person everyone would want to relate to! Good job! You don't come off in the least like a misogynistic sociopath!
