    Harrison Ford hates Star Wars

    And i love him for it! I cant blame him, its on my list of three unholy things i hate. Which is Superheroes, Star Wars and Star Trek. I think my issue with Star Wars is its too unreal (which i agree with film critic John Simon on this). But its fun seeing a regular stand up guy hate it as much...

    Kinect Star Wars... but Lord of the Rings instead?

    I got a ridiculous idea. Kinect Star Wars... but Lord of the Rings characters? (except music would be local dance music) Like this Example of gameplay

    Any Animated Star Wars fans? Clone Wars / Rebels / Bad Batch?

    One of the creative minds behind these shows is a huge Tolkien fan, a lot of references to Lord of the Rings, among others. The Bad Batch is streaming now on Disney+ and it is mind blowing!

    The new Star Wars movie

    Who else is excited for the new movie? I am for sure! It can't be any worse than JarJar Binks can it? I remember going to see the original trilogy I the theater with my dad When they were re-released in the 90's, I can't wait to see the new one.

    The Out Of Character Thread For That Star Wars Cantina Thread Of Mine.

    Greetings, some. There used to be a Star Wars section around here. Not any more, for some reason. It looked about as popular as that C. S. Lewis section, but oh well. I have looked around for some decent Star Wars role-playing website type things. Haven't seen any. Inform me if you do...

    Star Wars: who would win

    Ok, I swear this is not a troll So my freind and I are total geeks and have spent hours on many debats of the fantasy and sci-fi worlds, as a side note most of them involve a lot of alcohol. Who would win in a battle between Gandalf and Yoda.... we must assume Gandalf's magic is the force of a...

    Hm? Readers Of Star Wars Books?

    I see very little of interest here, at the moment. I care little for the Episodes I-III discussions. Those movies weren't very fun. Is there zero interest in the Star Wars bookses? It has been a while since I have obtained the chance to intelligently discuss them. Also, if you are only...

    The real rejected Star Wars script

    The following are real scripts that were written for Star Wars, but later rejected because they were too light-hearted, and not dramatic enough. I will put them up bit by bit, and in episode order... A long time ago in the universe... EPISODE I: The Found Prodigy The Galactic Republic is...

    Tolkien & Star Wars : Parallels

    Do you think there is a similarity between the relationships that exist between Emperor Palpatine and Darth Vader, and those between Sauron and his Ringwraiths? It seems that neither Vader nor the Nazgul could defy their masters, and though Vader does finish the Emperor off in the end, he...

    Star Wars: I am too weak...

    Was the Emperor really too weak to win a confrontation with Mace Windu or did he do it intentionally, i.e. he perceived that Anakin would follow Windu shortly, and so he created a plot to ensnare him?

    Your favourite Star Wars whine

    --Luke Skywalker, A New Hope. A fitting whine to get the ball rolling.

    Star Wars has everything over the Titanic

    This is a bit outdated (it was originally written during Titantic's release on video, I believe), but I just found it and I think it's hilarious. Star Wars vs. Titanic Titanic's big, but it doesn't have hyperdrive. Star Wars has WAY cooler action figure potential. Yoda could use the...

    Silmarillions influence on Star Wars

    Some of you may already know this but for those who don't, George Lucas whilst writing 'Star Wars' and all that goes with that title, brought in many features of other mythologies and fantasy writings - one being Middle-Earth. Examples of small features in which Tolkiens writings have been the...

    People on Star Wars boards create LOTR threads.

    I post on Star Wars (SW) messageboards frequently, and I have recently joined this LOTR board. Since the time ROTK was released in theatres, LOTR threads have constantly been posted on Star Wars boards. TF.N, or the Jedi Council Forums, has a high occurence of LOTR threads in their Jedi Council...

    STAR WARS! Did you think this too?

    Another thread courteousy of Elgee's mean little brother. He made another comment to me, "Don't the elephants (he refuses to say oliphant) remind you of ATAT Walkers from Star Wars?" And they rather do. You remember the snow fight in the Empire Strikes Back? They look a lot like those. The...
