Darths & Droids

Lets face it, the new Star Wars movies sucked. There's no two ways around it. They were bad, just painfully bad at times. But Darths & Droids takes that suckiness and transforms it into pure funny. I love this comic and I'm someone who knows very little about old school roleplaying games.

Simple way to put it? Jar Jar is hilarious in this comic. Jar Jar. I'm super serial you guys. Go read it!

I only saw the last of the prequels at the behest of my then gf. It was sort of ridiculous and melodramatic. (Maybe I shouldn't be saying this where Dreiser can hear me.) Long story short, feel free to continue resisting.

I take that back. I have seen the same section of the one where the little boy drives the floaty cars multiple times. It seemed to always be on when I would be in the gym. I don't really know what was happening because closed captioning can be quite dodgy at times, but I think the take home is that he was an adorable little thing before he turned to the dark side.

I haven't seen the old Star Wars movies yet either, even though my husband owns them.

I like saying this in front of Dreiser because she just tells me I should watch, and then seems to think that the fact I haven't seen movies like Bambi, any of the Star Wars movies, Jurassic Park and billions of other movies is somehow endearing rather than recognising it for the lameness it truly is.

Bambi will just make you cry. There's a reason I don't own it despite I'm a Disney whore who goes to see every animated movie they release in theaters and buys 99% of everything they make on dvd.

And in retrospect, Jurassic Park isn't that good anyway. However, the original Star Wars are worth seeing. Definitely not the prequels though.

I wouldn't encourage anyone to see the Star Wars prequels unless they're really into Natalie Portman and her prettiness. I'm shallow that way.

Haha, Will thinks it's funny that I think I'm a nerd for not being able to distinguish between Trek/Wars but that most people would think someone is a nerd for being able to make the distinction. Will has a lot of the movies of both on DVD though, so eventually, I will watch
