Maybe it is your latent precog abilities being fueled by excessive corporal consumption!?

It's not nice to joke about a lady's weight.

Corporal as in visceral...blood, blood pancakes, and such.
The noting of the same doesn't seem like much.

It was a knowing bump or at best a friendly poke,
Not a ill thump or a pesky annoying joke.

Sometimes my words are misunderstood,
leading to moments where they are hard as wood.

Endeavor for the future, clarity I will,
as Master Yoda might say "a pill you take, to chill".

Thanks for the concern, but it was a joke.

A joke which would generally be just as rude, come to think of it (save for these exact circumstances) Wink

Yes, I sort of figured, but I've been a bid deprived of sleep between the bouts of group insomnia with my roommates and certain stressors having to do with a four letter word that starts with "L" so I forgot to put an emoticon.

So no worries!

I know this is a Ralph McQuarrie piece, but does anybody know of more art like this or was this style kind of exclusive to Ralph?

So far as I'm aware, McQuarrie did the pre-vis work for all six films. I have some of the prints for Phantom Menace, I think, so you can certainly buy them if that's what you're after.

Otherwise, I imagine if you look on deviantart or somewhere, you should be able to find artists working 'in the style of', as his style is distinctive enough that I can well imagine aping it being an exercise for aspiring artists.

my newest acquisition Cheesy this was released in December last year, and soon as I realised it was out I had to order one in from Haynes through work, much to the amusement of my colleagues- none of them are starwars fans sadly



and with my millennium falcon owners manual Smiley

I've been trying to track down the Haynes t-shirts (or similar - they had the cutaways and so on) that were out a few years ago for the X-Wing and AT-AT. No joy, alas, but congrats on a cool find!

I just thought these were interesting.



Apparently the Millenium Falcon was in Revenge of the Sith. At the time, it was still known as the Stellar Envoy.

Yeah, that's one of those things Lucas did because we all know the galaxy has to revolve around 10 people... Lucas did confirm this was the Falcon, pre-Solo ownership... I however, given the model's age, would have just been happy to leave it as a random YT-1300... for crying out loud, it's one of the most popular ship designs, you'd think there'd be more that one in the universe.

To be honest, I hadn't even noticed it in the movie but it makes sense that Uncle Lucas would continue to tie more and more things in. Somethings are just cameos (which the Millennium Falcon was), and other things didn't need to be placed (Anakin building C-3PO and Yoda being friends with Chewie). I think it's a cool cameo, which in this case is fine as it's not tying anything together and is simply just another pilot doing a smuggling run.

hmm, may or may not have been a smuggling ship then. At that stage it was owned by the Republic Group described as "an obscure and possibly secret organisation linked to holding companies on Coruscant, Alderaan and Corellia"

just a random bit of info for you Tongue

guess its the same as when they remastered the OT (or at least on the bluray version), they stuck the YT2400 Outrider into a scene in Anchorhead in A New Hope

I saw the Falcon there last time I saw Revenge. I wondered Who else did.
