  1. I am sick of it by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 0

    Star Wars here, Star Wars there. Definitely, it is not stuff that matters.

  2. AAAAUUUUUGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH! by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 0

    That does it. I'm never going to see this stupid movie. It's 6 months from being released and has more advertising than most movies that have been released. Screw it.

  3. the evil trade organization, RIAA by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 0

    the RIAA blockades hong kong with a fleet
    of surplus soviet missile cruisers and
    aircraft carriers that it purchased at an auction.

    of course in the real world there are no jedi knights for the government to send in to restore justice and peace. there are only vietnam and ruby ridge and somalia.

  4. Naboo? by heroine · · Score: 1

    I origionally doubted the rumors that George's staff modelled Yoda after Gordon B. Hinckley. This Naboo sounds a bit fishy. Is Naboo in Illinois too? Did the same guy who invented Yoda invent Naboo?

  5. So STOP READING them by Fastolfe · · Score: 1

    Obviously, "stuff that matters" is opinion. That opinion will obviously not apply to every single reader to slashdot. Your only option is to pick and choose what articles you read (try reading just the summary before you read the whole thing).

    If the subject doesn't interest you, why read it? In fact, WHY POST A COMMENT about it?

  6. Darth Huh? by manitee · · Score: 1

    Darth Sidious? Sounds a little Darth Sillious to me. Oh well. I wonder when the ol' Emperor makes his appearance? Hell, I wonder when the Empire first gets mentioned.

  8. Huh? by Otter · · Score: 1

    Hoping to resolve the matter with the blockade of deadly battleships...

    What is that supposed to mean? Either they didn't get the text right or it needs some serious editing.

  9. Ted Just Admit It... by Khyron · · Score: 1
    Okay look folks, this is getting seriously out of hand. Before you know it, someone is going to go digging through Moriarity's trash or break into his house, and bang, overnight the full script is going to be on more websites than the damn Monica and Bill cigar melodrama.

    Stop it now, stop it forever...please Ralph, no more Star Wars updates except those intended by Lucasfilm for public release?

  10. Post text here by HarryP · · Score: 1

    I can't get to the site from my proxy - Anyone want to post it here as a comment?

  11. Star Wars Prequel leaks by Polaris · · Score: 1

    I realise that a certain amount of info about The Phantom Menace is necessary to build demand, but I'm getting a little worried that too much will be given away before release, leading to an anti-climax. I think the first trailer is just right - I'm afraid to watch the five-minute trailer. As for the crawl text, I want to read it in the moviehouse for the first time just as I did all those years ago for A New Hope. I want the film to have the maximum possible impact for me.

  12. One for the economists? by K. · · Score: 1

    So much for a fairytale beginning, or even an epic one.

    Mind you, the girlf's both an economist and a star wars fan, so I'll probably end up seeing it anyway.
