Someone needs to put a stake through the heart of the starwars franchise and bury it at a crossroad.

In before comedic posting of Darth Vader NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
macro.

Also, this does not surprise me at all. It was only a matter of time before Lucas felt the urge to make himself some more money. Add this little project to the rumored threats of a made for tv movie in place of another cinema release and you have the perfect excuse to make nerds illegal.

How long do you think it will take for him to give up pretending he's not going to make another three films?

How about this?

http://www.abc.net.au/news/newsitems/200705/s1934055.htm

Quote:
Storm-troopers, Jedis flock to Star Wars birthday bash

White-armored storm-troopers, robed Jedi knights and bun-haired Princess Leia look-alikes roamed the Los Angeles Convention Centre to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Star Wars film phenomenon.

The sprawling event, billed as the world's biggest Star Wars party, opened to the general public as thousands of fans young and old shopped for memorabilia, posed for photographs and generally immersed themselves in ways of "the Force."

"This can be one-stop shopping for fans to experience everything they would want in the Star Wars world," John Singh said, a spokesman for Star Wars creator George Lucas' production company Lucasfilm, a sponsor of the event.

Special activities included Star Wars laser tag, "slave Leia" belly-dancing lessons, a storm-trooper Olympics, R2-D2 android racing, a costume workshop and an appearance by Carrie Fisher, who starred as Princess Leia.

The US Postal Service used the event to dedicate its first stamps commemorating the 30th anniversary of the movie that revolutionised special-effects film-making.

Promoters say 20,000 tickets were sold in advance, and they expected at least another 10,000 admissions over the weekend.

One of them, Rob Howes, 35, of Anaheim, California, says he was six years old when the original Star Wars film opened in 1977, and recalls being "blown away."

"I was a very impressionable young man when Star Wars came out, and it just grabbed me and didn't let go," he said, dressed as a Rebel Hoth fighter pilot in an orange suit, as he gobbled down a tuna-fish sandwich.

From the other side of the Empire marched Evan Greenwood, 28, of Hugoton, Kansas, plying the halls in a storm-trooper uniform complete with hydration pack and a 12-volt pump to circulate cooling water under the suit.

"It's probably 120 degrees (49 C) in here," he said, identifying himself as a member of a worldwide fan club known as the Storm Troopers 501st Legion, named for an actual unit of Darth Vader's forces in the original film.

"We marched up the steps with Darth as he slaughtered the Jedi," Mr Greenwood said, as he paused to remove his helmet.

Other young fans lined up at the convention's Jedi Training Academy, where they took turns engaging in one-on-one light sabre duels with a very authentic-looking Darth Vader, and received guidance from a Jedi master.

"Just keep smiling at him, it really upsets him," the instructor told one enthusiastic pupil.

Do you only laugh at new jokes? SW fans will keep making fools of themselves for years to come, to our amusement or annoyance, your choice really.

Yeah, saying that to a Star Wars fan was clever.

Real clever.

I will miss your thoughtful comments on the Midlands forum once Ezelek finds where you live and pulls your head off. :smith:

The linked site is host to a fanfilm (or fan series). It's not official. I've suspected this for a while, but now it's confirmed.
