2. I got it in an email today (obviously). I don't even care for Star Wars...
...but it was too painful not to share. :)

5. Thanks! I've been watching George Lucas' "Clone Wars" on Cartoon Network
Now, please bear in mind that I live in Australia. For all I know, they may have aired in the States five years ago. I've been out of the country for several years.

I absolutely love these. And what I really love is that so many of the Jedi in "Clone Wars" are women! My husband even pointed out that all of the clones are based on a Maori (indigenous New Zealand resident) which I also really like.

15. Oh yeah, he's tasty. And I love the fact that Lucas decided to reproduce

an entire clone army of warriors based on the Maori, which are feared warriors in this part of the world. If you ever get to see a haka (Maori war dance) I highly recommend it.

ETA: Hey, I even found one on Youtube! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c-lrE2JcO44

14. The best was those Ewok TV movies.
The ones with the little orphan girl, and the goofy magic creatures, and the evil witch?

Best thing to happen to Star Wars ever.
