Pure awesomeness



Forget Disneyland, next time any of you go to Southern California, you should take the kids to LegoLand instead. It's about an hour south of Disneyland, about 30 mins north of San Diego.

Click on this link and check out the cool galleries of Star Wars Lego-designs that are on exhibit.

Please don't do this, no matter how much you love your Star Wars toys.

I'm trying to find something amusing to say about the guy who killed his wife because, among other things, she destroyed his Star Wars collection of toys after an argument. But it's very difficult. She's dead, leaving behind a grieving family; he's a fucked up asshole going to prison; and there's a bunch of choice Star Wars toys that got mangled. Not a feel-good story.

Star Wars vs. Lego Awesomeness



I wish I could live in a world where everything was made out of Lego.


Be sure to click on this guy's Flickr gallery of the Sandcrawler from the link.

Star Wars Episode VII: A New Empire

My friend's son Samir has written the next episode of Star Wars. His writing style is very close in style and quality to George Lucas'. His drawings are also excellent.

Mr. Plinkett Reviews Star Wars III: Revenge of the Sith



The whole thing is here. I have things to say, but to avoid spoiling the review, which is awesome, I'll say them in the comments.

Great? Horrible? You decide.


I honestly don't know what to think about this, but it involves both lego and Star Wars, so it seems like it should be right up piecesofthings' alley.

Production Photos from Empire


Here is a disorienting collection of production stills from The Empire Strikes Back, from the new coffee table book about the making of said film, via Vanity Fair.

"I'm on a diplomatic mission!"


Love both the concept and execution of this.

How come people start laughing only when Darth Vader appears? There's like this collective laugh of relief like "OK, now I get that it's a joke-- thought things were getting serious for a minute there."

God Hates Jedi (?)


San Diego Comic-Con going on as we speak. Love the concept of this absurd counter-protest-- sure to bewilder the crazy right-wing religious nuts who are themselves masters of the art of offensive picket-sign slogans.

AT-AT Day Afternoon



This is absolutely everywhere, but it still felt wrong to not post it here.

Darth Kitty


Ok clearly I need to stop procrastinating and get back to work, but this is just too unspeakably cool not to share. The thought that comes to mind is: WHY?
