When you’re told to evacuate because the Galactic Empire just took over your city, you only have time to grab the essentials.
God, this guy is one of my favorite ridiculous EU characters along with Elan Sleazebaggano.
He was basically just a random extra with an ice cream maker, but they gave him an entire in-depth backstory about how he was a member of the Rebellion and that ice cream maker contained a lot of vital data and basically he single-handedly saved the Rebellion that day.
He has an action figure, of course, as does his ice cream maker computer datacore.
Fuck.
the star wars eu is a wild fucking ride
“After the Rebels’ victory, Hood decided to take it easy.” with a daily supply of fresh ice cream i guess
Epic legends.
Every Star Wars Celebration has the Run of the Willrow Hoods. Dozens of fans cosplay as Willrow and run through the con with their ice cream makers.
^ Please tell me there’s video footage of this. Do people wait for the stampede and see if they can press one of the On switches without getting gored?
this is the greatest thing ever
That’s … a ride.
Star Wars extra: *runs by with an ice cream maker*
“the millenium falcon would wipe out the enterprise in seconds” lmao the enterprise is just an innocent science class floating thru space…. all they wanna do is look at some rocks… kiss an alien…. find some space plants….. why would you fight that its not a battleship theyre just nerds…… leave them olone
A friend of mine saw this and brought up some interesting arguments
so, in other words,
Pretty much.
here have some size comparison
Who wins in a fight, a fully staffed Navy research vessel or your local weed man and his best friend in their souped up VW Bus?
Carrie Fisher as Leia Organa with her daughter Billie Lourd as Lieutenant Kaydel Ko Connix and Mark Hamill as Luke Skywalker, photographed by Annie Leibovitz for Vanity Fair.
This is a common refrain among the new generation of Star Wars actors: that Fisher was the one who taught them how to deal. Boyega recalled that when there was a backlash against his appearance in the first Force Awakens teaser trailer, released in November 2014—the sight of a black man in stormtrooper armor drew ire from racists and doctrinaire Star Wars
traditionalists—Fisher counseled him not to take it to heart. “I
remember—and forgive me, I’m going to drop the f-bomb, but that’s just
Carrie—she said, ‘Ah, boohoo, who fuckin’ cares? You just do you,’ ” he
said. “Words like that give you strength. I bore witness in a million
ways to her sharing her wisdom with Daisy too.”
Don McLean was reportedly pleased with “The Saga Begins”, a parody of “American Pie”, and told Yankovic that the parody’s lyrics sometimes enter his mind during live performances. His parody not only replicates the music from the original Don McLean song, but it replicates the multi-layered rhyming structure in the verses and chorus. Additionally, George Lucas loved the song and a Lucasfilm representative told Yankovic, “You should have seen the smile on his face.”
‘and the jedi i admire most/met up with darth maul and now he’s toast/but i’m still here and he’s a ghost/’
I guess… I’ll train… this boy.
I remember how excited I was to see this as a kid, not only because any new Weird Al material was great (and still is), but also because getting video clips like this were harder without youtube.
I love everything about this.
My Star Wars watching order just replaces The Phantom Menace with this song.
