Playing LEGO Star Wars the other day I had to complete a mission and hunt down General Grievous with Obi-Wan and his partner. A clone trooper, named Commander Cody. My friend Todd complained about the character for having a dorky name on his LiveJournal today. Sure, it’s a dorky name. Sure, it doesn’t sound likeContinue reading “On Commander Cody”

Today’s the day. Lego Star Wars comes out today. Yippee!
More on Lego Star Wars
Six days away. The game is Six. Days. Away. I pre-ordered mine at work today. Somehow I’d been remiss in doing so. It was crazy funny hectic busy at work today. The Sony PSP, the new handheld system, launched today. We opened at eight, and people started lining up at about twenty past seven. AllContinue reading “More on Lego Star Wars”
On a PG-13 Star Wars
Film Threat, in their latest Star Wars report by Pete Vonder Haar, contains this nugget of information: Lucas went on “60 Minutes” recently to discuss that this latest film, the “darkest and most violent” of the series, would likely be the first in the Star Wars saga to receive anything more severe than a PG.Continue reading “On a PG-13 Star Wars”
On Lego Star Wars
I receive the LEGO Club Magazine every other month. The latest issue arrived yesterday. The issues contains an ad for the PS2 and XBox game, LEGO Star Wars, coming out at the end of the month. I’m positively giddy thinking about it. It’s freakin’ LEGOs! It’s freakin’ Star Wars. Okay, it’s Prequel Trilogy Star Wars,Continue reading “On Lego Star Wars”
On Wookies
Today’s Penny Arcade comic may be one of the funniest takes on Star Wars I’ve ever seen. I can’t imagine Uncle George will be pleased, but who gives a toss what Uncle George thinks? He put fart jokes in The Phantom Menace. It’s only a short hop from there to crude, sexual humor. Enjoy!

Rarities
I’ve seen this on several friend’s pages (most recently Andrew Timson‘s), and so I now take a whack at it. A book you own that no one on your friends list does: The Forgotten Monarchy of Scotland, by Prince Michael Stewart of Albany. I’m not sure why I own this. It’s not a very goodContinue reading “Rarities”
George Lucas, Hack
Penny Arcade, in a recent cartoon nails why I despise George Lucas–the man cannot leave well enough alone. I’ve seen in stores the past week a Star Wars DVD box set. Ten years ago, had DVDs existed then and had I a DVD player then, I would have bought the set instantly and with greatContinue reading “George Lucas, Hack”
On Episode VII?
I’m sure you’ve heard by now. George Lucas is now contemplating making Episodes 7-9, after saying for the past five or six years that no, Star Wars was only a six-episode story, despite the previous decade where he said, no, it’s a nine-episode story (and that brief stretch when it was twelve). Please. Shoot meContinue reading “On Episode VII?”
