    Oh yeah, last night was the 38th anniversary of the broadcast of the Star Wars Holiday Special.

    I assumed everyone watched it yesterday, until just now when I thought maybe they forgot to.

    I watched The Star Wars Holiday Special once, years ago, and I remember every second of it in vivid detail. I can't remember my nana's birthday but I can remember Art Carney hooking Chewie's father-in-law, Itchy, into a virtual reality jerk-off chair

    STIR, WHIP, STIR, WHIP, WHIP WHIP STIR.

    And then I look up the chef on Wookieepedia. And then I notice there's a Canon tab. It is apparently Star Wars Canon that Maz Kanata's cook was inspired by a four-armed Harvey Korman.

    On the AV Club there is a user called Reposted Wookieepedia that only posts quotes from Wookieepedia articles.

    Except that they quote stuff that's always somehow relevant to what they're commenting on, even if it has nothing at all to do with Star Wars.

    I actually think detours might have been okay

    I mean, Seth Green is definitely one of the people I'd want on that project

    Pretty good Rebels ep this week, a mid sized bit of fleet combat and a bunch of cocky kids joyriding Dash Rendar's ship. :P

    Also, more bits of the games continue to sneak their way into the films. In that Rogue One trailer...
    The new Rebel gunship has a door Ion cannon that fires blue. They only did those in the X-Wing games. Also, you can clearly see Old Republic cruiser knockoffs based on the Hammerhead design as part of the Rebel fleet.

    Even I, with a half shelf filled with old Star Wars books and comics, have not dared walk the true depths of Wookiepedia, for that way lies madness, and lightsaber form and Super Star destroyer arguments. The horror.

    2-1B/DRX likewise ordered for Vader's helmet to be waxed with woodoo hide in the hopes that the resulting shine would distract Palpatine from the shortcuts they were forced to implement during the surgery.

    In the midst of my busy day studying, I wanted to take a moment to say.

    I truly despise the character of Galen "Starkiller" Marek.

    That is all.

    There was some solid C-3PO shots from the Muppet Show that could have fit right into that trailer.

    I know I'm a mostly alone, but those games are fun.

    Plot is just wonderfully insane. Kinda bummed we won't see where they were going with the cliffhanger plot at the end of 2.

    Listening to the Doctor Strange soundtrack makes me dissapointed again that Desplat isn't doing Rogue One. It's not that bad, but alot of it just sounds like a fourth Star Trek score with a little bit prog rock instrumentation thrown in, if at all.

    Also the only pun I really like on it is "The Eyes Have It".

    I thought they were fun to play but starkiller was boring and it was extremely dumb of them to bring him back for the second one

    I can't comment on the gameplay, but Gooood, it's the most 11 year old self-insert, "my character can do anything and is the most special snowflake ever the universe revolves around" possible.

    I feel bad even comparing him to Kyle.

    the silly thing is that the premise of the force unleashed already gives a great excuse to reintroduce Kyle

    he's had two jedi adventures already, now you can drop him into one where he's already a badass

    but no, instead of that, let's have a broody teenage jackass, because that resonated so well with people in the prequels

    Or just play the game as Darth Vader, which is you know, what people actually wanted.

    Make sure he's a white dude with a shaved head

    We all know that's a design that really resonates!

    I liked one of the DLC level of the first FUL, were Starkiller is the eager to please apprentice to the Emperor and the Emperor is just "Fine.... just do what needs to be done and try to get killed doing it, idiot."

    There is a wookipedia article on breasts.

    Not to be out done. There is also one on memory alpha.

    And there's a two-and-a-half minute segment by SF Debris (starting at the 15:00 mark here) comparing and contrasting the two.

    My favourite is the one on jizz. It's actually a boring article but it's good for catching people by surprise.

    Plus, whenever they watch star wars they'll know that they're listening to jizz.

    I'd be perfectly happy with an Ahsoka Unleashed or Kanan Unleashed.
