365 Days of Photojournalism With Stormtroopers

Lanxon writes "Wired reports that for one French fan, the Stormtrooper has become an obsession. Stormtroopers 365 is a collection of wacky, witty, and artistic photographs that its creator Stéfan Le Dû has been adding to daily since 3 April 2009 when the project began. 'I got a new camera and I had some Stormtrooper figures sleeping in their blister packs for months. I wanted to start something a bit challenging on Flickr, and I had previously seen some awesome Star Wars toys pictures, and other "365" projects that I really liked,' he says. The two starring Stormtroopers — TK455 and TK479 — have run into cats, clocks, various household implements, and even a DeLorean sports car."

Godwin's Law? by Rog7 · 2010-04-02 05:40 · Score: 2, Interesting

Excuse me for inadvertently invoking Godwin's Law on this so quickly, but when I read the title I first assumed this was some discovered historical footage of Nazi paramilitary assault troops.
I guess after Jar-Jar and the endless shovelling of Star Wars merchandise, I've kind of filtered George Lucas' franchise right out of my head. Or maybe I just wish I had.
