Star Wars with occasional sarcasm
Haven’t you ever wanted to take a little chomp at Yoda’s ears? No? What if he was a cookie? (Or, what about Vader?)
Also, cakes, as found by our own Heather W.: Jabba, stormtrooper, Yoda, ewok, R2-D2 and the Millennium Falcon, all part of Great White Snark’s Geeky Cake of the Week feature.
We’ve never made a secret of our approval of Ewok foodstuffs, though I kinda doubt these cupcakes taste like chicken. For the less squeamish, there’s Vader and Yoda pizza. Check out the full set of pictures for more geeky fun.
These guys are big on lists lately – this time, it’s their forty most memorable aliens. Ewoks and Max Rebo make the list, as well as other familiar faces like Doctor Who and Mr. Spock.
Trivia masters rejoice: Jeopardy! added a Star Wars category today. It’s already aired here (curses!) so I have to ask: just how obsessed does one have to be to make the $1000 question laughable?
In the News
On the TOS
Bonnie at TOS has found step by step instructions on how to make one of your own, and pics of a few buddies. I have a feeling something like this would be very popular at the next CJ auction. Hint hint.
I’ve been too busy for random surfing, but SF Signal to the rescue – they found three (well, four – but we already linked the subwoofer) great Star Wars diversions yesterday: Everything Star Wars, the top 15 Han Solo quotes you need to use in regular conversation, and learn to speak Ewok. Though why anyone would feel the need to talk to Ewoks is mystery to me.
Yahoo Underground interviews Bonnie about her Ewok revenge fantasies.
Barbershop quartet Crackerjack Junctions sings the Ewok Celebration Song. Are those the real lyrics? I guess now we know why the Ewoks fired their lyricist.
There are Klingons in the White House! I think this is one incident where we can put aside our political differences and shake our heads in one collective “what the hell?”
Kiwi is an animation from Dony Permedi. It really is adorable. In sort of a sad way. You’ll see.
See the R2-D2 projector in action.
AT-AT: All Artoo, all the time!
