Something to rile up the local Star Wars fans...

If the Ivory Tower is the brain of the board, and the Transformers discussion is its heart, then General Discussions is the waste disposal pipe. Or kidney. Or something suitably pulpy and soft, like 4 week old bananas.

Just out of curiosity, what's holding his chins back now?

Seriously though, we mustn't mock Mr Lucas as he is doing us all an immense favour by changing the Star Wars films to the versions he knows we really want, but don't realise that we do.

Some of the radical improvements to The Empire Strikes Back will include:

1. Rather than cut off the Wampa's arm, Luke will now remove a splinter from it's paw and then forgive it. He trips on his way back to the base and knocks himself out though.

2. The Imperial Probe Droid never discovers the Rebel base. This allows the removal of the rather pointless battle/evacuation scene, and allows us to quickly get to the scenes between Luke and Yoda on Degobah.

3. Since no evacuation from Hoth, no chasing of the Falcon through the asteroid field. The rebels end up at Cloud City to stretch their legs, when Vader happens to chance on by.

4. George felt that having Lando, the only main black character, be a double-crossing gambler and cheat was not in keeping with the politically correct Star Wars Universe, and has gone to great lengths to rectify this whilst appealing to a modern audience. He is now running the 'Cloud City Orphanage', and all of his dialogue is to be re-dubbed by Snoop Dogg:

"Fo' shizzle ma Vadernizzle-Solo's ma boy, I 'aint go'n sell him out to no kracka, even if I gots ta take a cap in th'ass. Why you frontin' man? Aw sheeeeiiit-lets discuss this like OG's and fire up a blunt, inhale the chronic and get nicely toasted. And you gots to hook me up with ma own Star Destroyer, that **** is tight!"

5. Instead of chopping off Luke's hand, Vader now stabs him through each palm, and both feet.

6. The "I am your father" line is to be cut. This is to make the audience wonder why Luke throws himself down the shaft, rather than explain everything to them.

7. Oh-the Yoda/Luke scenes will now account for 93% of the film.

8. The ending is no longer Lando and Chewie going to save Han, but rather Luke waking up in his Bacta tank, post accident, to find it was all a dream.

Tres exciting, non?

nothing - America has a new state.

Oh, you appear to have missed the fact that in Empire and Jedi the emporor will be replaced by a Middle Eastern dictator with a big 'tache.
