Even if you like The Phantom Menace  and its fight scenes, this video is goddamn hilarious. God help you, but its still hilarious.

I had no idea that Star Wars  fan groups had such sway. While George Lucas may have rubber-stamped (a stamp forged in his laboratories using dark magic and our tears) Star Wars: The Old Republic  as canon, the fan groups weren’t so quick to give it their blessing. Rejoice though, people of the desirous SWTOR  cosplay. The game has passed the Crucible.

Ralph McQuarrie has passed away. Son of a bitch, that mortality. If you know Star Wars, then you’ve loved on his designs for the universe. Lucas himself has penned a eulogy. Hit the jump to check it out.

Sometimes I see a news article and I’m too lazy to pass it on. Usually happens during the weekend where I dare to disconnect for minimal moments. I came across this shiz this weekend, decided it could wait, and now it’s the fiery hotness across the netter-webs. Rejected Star Wars  toys, and they’re all pretty awesome.

I love infographics. They always have some wanky information regarding treasured tropes in a slinky minimalist format.  Wayne Dorrington  has got A New Hope  locked down in one, and it’s everything you could hope for. Plus!, a dancing rhinoceros. Okay, I made that part up.

Hulloh there, fellow crewmates of Spaceship OL! There seem to be more of you than ever, which is goddamn spectacular! C’mon out from behind those crates of surplus Atari 2600 games, there’s no need to hide! We’ve got plenty of Bantha fodder for everyone, and we’re just about to dive into the MONDAY MORNING COMMUTE!

What’s that, you ask?

Simply put, the  MONDAY MORNING COMMUTE is OL‘s attempt to vaccinate its patrons against the vile disease that is the workweek. So before you plunge headfirst into five days of 9-5 misery, check out the bits of entertainment I’ll be using to safeguard myself against ennui and spiritual ruin. Then, if you’re daring, you can hit up the comments and show off your own set of curative salves and topical creams.

It’s Internet show-and-tell at its very best.

Quit delayin’, let’s dance!

Fat Lucas, Douche Emperor of the Geek World is spouting off again, this time thanks to promotions for Episode I: Three Dimensions of Suck. Latest crime against his own community? Claiming Greedo always shot first.

I just woke up from a nap. The time-stamp on my compu-deck is 9:45PM. The natural inference is that I’m going to stay up too late, not get enough sleep, and drag ass all day tomorrow.

This is going to be a problem.

So how will I combat the First World Problem of being overtired at work? Well, with huge scoops of entertainment that’ll either sharpen my mind or further dull it! And how will I tell the lovely OL patrons which mind-bullets I’ll be loading into my metaphor-pistol? Why, with this very post – the MONDAY MORNING COMMUTE!

C’mon, hop aboard and check out how I’ll be coping with the indentured servitude that is the forty-hour workweek. After you see which snake-oils I’m sipping on, hit up the comments section and show off your own curative elixirs.

1,2,3. 1,2,3. Keep it up.

Let me be upfront about this: I don’t believe this rumor. Why am I talking about it? Page hits, idiot! (Well yeah, that, but it’s Star Wars and I’m a sucker for it, despite my bile.)  Want to hear the probably untrue  rumor regarding time travel and The Force Gone Television?

I watched The People vs. George Lucas last week, and it was both traumatizing and cathartic. It was mourning with a digital avalanche of people, but it was also like watching footage of your girlfriend or boyfriend getting gang blasted in slow motion on an evening they told you they were going to the gym or something. So when George Lucas flaps his fat gums this week, I’m “I forgive you”, and I’m also “Fuck you, swine.”
