Oh, man.....am I a geek!


Edited to add a current working link.

Nope not at all.... I can't wait to see it!

When my dialup is going fast, I can only get 26,400, so I'll look it up tomorrow. But the last Star Wars movie was the last movie I went to - obviously I'm anxiously awaiting this next one!

Thanx for letting us know, SMan!

It's Star Wars FANBOIS.




And yes, i'm a big Geek for Star wars too. I can't wait!!!!!!

For those that can't or haven't got a chance to see it, it's mostly a lot of rehashed footage from the first few movies. Then you get a few glimpses of Anakin looking really evil and you hear the emperor saying something like "rise, Lord Vader". There' also some space fight battle scenes mixed in and a few scenes from what looks like a wookie planet.

Only 7 months to go...woohoo!

Yep. Geeks, for sure.

I once stood out in the rain at Leitersburg Cinemas to see one of those movies. Forget which one. I think it was the one that showed the little boy with the Vader shadow in the sand. Did it for a guy.

I'm just as bad with horror movies, so who am I to talk?

The opening scrolling text for Episode III has been released by StarWars.com.

Episode III

REVENGE OF THE SITH

War! The Republic is crumbling
under attacks by the ruthless
Sith Lord, Count Dooku.
There are heroes on both sides.
Evil is everywhere.

In a stunning move, the
fiendish droid leader, General
Grievous, has swept into the
Republic capital and kidnapped
Chancellor Palpatine, leader of
the Galactic Senate.

As the Separatist Droid Army
attempts to flee the besieged
capital with their valuable
hostage, two Jedi Knights lead a
desperate mission to rescue the
captive Chancellor....


Also, the next trailer will hit movie previews at the beginning of March.

Oh man, I'm excited!

There is tons of trivia about Star Wars on IMDB. If you geeks haven't checked it out yet, you should.

Just so I know who to laugh at. How many of you will be standing outside the theater 3 days before the movie opens with your chewy and darth vader costumes on waiting for tix. I want to know who to throw the water balloons at

Sman- obviously in his chewy costume ready to pass out from the heat

Rom- Darth Vader mask with a Michigan T and jean shorts

Heather- cinnamon bun princess leah hairdo and some hot princess costume

And last but not least. BMIC- Jabba the hut sitting in his lawn chair holding his first spot in the line

I'm bringing my digital camera and getting pics of all of you

I won't be in costume, and I won't be standing outside on opening day (I wouldn't even do that for my favorite movie the Wizard of Oz), but I'll be there to see it!

C'mon sheash! You know you'll be there in full regalia making coffee runs for Jabba...I mean B

I'll go a few days ahead of time and buy my tickets. Then I'll be in line a few hours before midnight. When the last one opened tickets weren't sold the night of the show, so they knew how many people to expect. They played it on as many screens as necessary (4 or 5 I think) to meet the demand.

Thanks for reminding me, Samy! I have to get my wookie costume to the cleaners.

Bah!

Nah, I won't be there. But I'll help throw water balloons.

I'll probably rent it eventually, but I'm no fan. I think it's cute though how all the men get all worked up about it like they are little boys again.

Nawww - I'll have her on a chain. Which I will continue to jerk unmercifully.

P.S. - Calm down now sheash, I'm just jerking yer chain... hehehe!

Here's one for you:

""The Force" Not With Seattle Star Wars Fan

Early birds beware. Next time you decide to save money or time waiting in a Seattle, Washington line just know you could end up losing both.

A die-hard Star Wars fan learned this the hard way. He and his blue sofa have been waiting outside the downtown Cinerama for the release of the new Star Wars movie coming out in May. But he just got kicked off the street because of a longstanding law against anyone sitting or lying on Seattle streets."

PFFFTTT!!!

Yeah right. I know you'll be there sporting your Princess Leia gold bikini.



Funny story.....

At my wedding, I started to play the "Imperial march" when my wife walked down the aisle. Everyone got a laugh, then I had my brother switch it over to the bridal march ASAP!

Oh, B, if only you knew.....

As I've told y'all before, all of my dogs have been miniature poodles or poodle crosses because of my allergies. The one I lost last year, and the new one are both apricot colored.

The first time my son saw the old dog, he thought it was that thing that Jabba had on the chain (or did he eat it, I can't remember), and tormented the dog. Well the new dog looks very much like the old dog, just a little bit bigger and younger. My son can't figure out how I got a dog that looks just like the old one, but he still wants to feed it to Jabba!

Rom, you must have a gem of a wife - I'm not sure if I would have laughed if my hubby had played the Imperial March.

She knew I was gonna do it.

It wasn't like we had a traditional wedding anyhow. Got married at a golf course for crying out loud.

No, I was thinking like when he had the beautiful Princess Leia on a chain. I can't quite bring myself to think of you as some kind of animal. Princess Leia is a much more flattering image, no?

With all this Princess Leia on a chain talk, I'm going to have to break out my Return of the Jedi DVD tonight!

Click here for l33t speak. It's a geek thing, you wouldn't understand.




(For the record, this is way past my level of geekiness.)

I've seen someone use w00t on here before. Either Sman or Rom.

Let's see how well I learned today. (Someone remind me to put this on the Friday thread for things I've learned.)


speaking elite aint easy. it's a language unlike any other.


W00t! Go me! That was too easy. Easy to read, but not to type out.

Now if I can just master algebra, I can conquer the world.

Find the y intercept for 87.2 = 16X - Y

edit: Hell I can't even close my own quote brackets after all that.

Back to the Star Wars fans. Check out the elite Jedi masters, posers, etc........
Star Wars fans at their finest!

Oh, that link was painful to look at......but I secretly admire the Jango Fett costume.

Really?

Mine was the two guys who dressed up as the 2 action figures no kid ever wanted.

I loved that link!!! You should all be ashamed of yourselves. I'm still taking pictures of all of you on opening day and posting them somewhere. I liked the idiot that showed up in his Spidey costume

What about the dope who showed up wearing the Battlestar Galactica robot outfit?

That would be a Cylon, Rom.

Three months from today, I'll be slipping into my Wookie costume and preparing to head to the theater for the midnight premiere.

. Do you mean we get 3 more months of updates?


only 2200 HOURS UNTIL TOTAL GEEK NIRVANA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Compared to the other threads around this forum...this one is the best! Everybody is happy around here, no politics, no arguing...it's awesome!

(Well, this and Word Association!)

Word Association simply will not die.


Hey, I saw a Mr. Potato Head with a Vader helmet on and light saver/saber thingie in his hand. It was cute.

Thanks, that was me standing in the square, downtown.

You can see it here.

Yoss as Darth Tater!
