Yeah, but exactly what are they going to do with Sallah? With Pavarotti dead, who will play the role of Sallah?

Watto's Junk Yard / Re: Tattoos -- Love 'Em or Hate 'Em?
« on: June 20, 2007, 11:45 PM »I've said before that I'm too much of a ***** to get a tattoo, and while that's still true, if I ever did get one, it'd probably be a wedding band tattoo. I just hate wearing jewelry and I think wedding rings are a waste of money. And I'd probably lose a real ring, too, which would be even more of a waste.
But I'd have to find a chick who'd be cool with it. I don't think most of 'em are.
Good idea in theory, but with divorce rates being as high as they are....
I dated a girl who had a wedding band tat & got divorced 3 yrs. later. She had it touched up & "morphed" into a new design. Looked horrible. Not that you need to worry, since you stated you're too much of a ***** to get one. But if you did.....

30th Anniversary Collection / Re: How Many 30AC Stormtroopers Are In Your Army?
« on: June 20, 2007, 11:02 PM »I want to remove the baby blue hues to the comic pack stormies, but now that I've got a pink helmet to go with the powder blue detailing, I may shoot for a 501st PRIDE parade brigade or something.
Interesting idea, but you should build a grand clone army to accompany your rainbow brigade of stormies. Clones with fushcia highlights, you know. And I just happen to know a customizer on these boards who I'm sure would enjoy helping you with such a task. Which brings me to...
It sounds to me that you had some kind of oil or some other substance on your fingers when you opened it. Either that or the last batch of mushrooms you ate were the silly kind. Probably the former, but with you li...lib...liber (you know)....you never know.
Other substance? Like what? Hmm....
Could've been shrooms, or it could've been oxycontin (aka hillbilly heroin). Oh wait, Sprry isn't a ne...neo...neoco...nah, couldn't have been oxy.
Perhaps the helmet was exposed to an unusual amount of light?

Yes, just like Luke's lightsaber blade.

Finally picked up a Bespin Luke last night at Wal-Mart. They had several so it was cool to be able to pick the one with the best paint job. Until last night, all I ever saw was the remnants of that wave at Target or TRU: Endor Leia & Hoth Han.

Watto's Junk Yard / Re: Generation-Defining Movies
« on: April 10, 2007, 03:33 PM »For me, there were the "big ones" from my childhood that most people from the same basic age group probably related with as well:
Ghostbusters
ET
The Goonies
Karate Kid
Back to the Future
Not to mention songs related to the films you mentioned; "Ghostbusters" by Ray Parker Jr., "Heartlight" by Neil Diamond, "Good Enough" by Cyndi Lauper, "Glory of Love" by Peter Cetera (from KKII), & "Power of Love" by Huey Lewis and the News. Music that changed my life and world perspective.
I'm a huge fan of John Hughes movies, especially The Breakfast Club. His films represented that generation well.

As it turns a year old, how do you feel about Revenge of the Sith? Did it meet your expectations? Do you feel jipped that Anakin turned to the dark side over a woman? How does it hold up (to the OT)?

Saga Collection '06 / Re: Ultimate Lucas Collection
« on: May 7, 2006, 04:08 PM »
I once made a custom Ep1 figure of the character Diva Funquita (played by George Lucas' daughter, Tyger). I used the body from a Gammorrean Guard figure and coupled it with the head of an Aayla figure. It came out real nice. Very good representation, especially the body.

Watto's Junk Yard / Re: Infidelity.....what say you?
« on: April 30, 2006, 03:15 PM »There are a few things I absolutley wont tolerate, and infidelity is one of those things. But does it really suprise you with the stories you read in magazines, the songs on the radio, and shows on TV like Desperate Housewives and what have you?
It makes it look ok.
Kevin
Amen to that. You're right. In this day & age, infidelity is considered chic.
While I'm not a believer that the media "controls" people, the media is largely responsible for creating or shaping a perception.
And Rob, I agree with your comment, too. The emotional connection is the one you need to worry about.

After JD, of course.
Heh. Naturally.
Of course, infidelity isn't always a physical thing, is it? I mean, a wandering eye can be just as harmful, right? While it's technically not "cheating," it is admiring or lusting after someone else, correct? Maybe I'm wrong (imagine that).
