Right in our back yard, too.

"a galaxy far, far away..." What a bunch of crap.

Let's just hope that Alderaan isn't a Sanscrit name for Earth or something.

It was nice knowing you all.

Posted by Eduardo_Sauron (Member # 5827) on :

I guess the Empire is coming to enslave us all, isn't it? [Angst]

But hey! I'll get to see cool stormtroopers, so...yay! [Big Grin]

Maybe I can even get a job! [Evil]

Nope. When they send the Death Star, they've given up enslaving and jumped straight ahead to "blow their a#$ up."

Dragonee, I think you are being too pessimistic:

Maybe they sent the Deathstar just to scare us off into giving up before the fighting even begins.
[Eek!]

Well, I sure hope so, at least...if that's not the case...end of the world party, my place. :-)

Posted by Erik Slaine (Member # 5583) on :

If you don't want them to blow up earth, then NAME THE SYSTEM!!

You think Brazillian Carnival is fun, just wait until you see the Brazillian "We don't have to worry about hangovers because tomorrow we'll be plasma" party.

[Party]

Posted by Eduardo_Sauron (Member # 5827) on :

Well...I was thinking about screening "Star Wars" during the party...

Posted by Farmgirl (Member # 5567) on :

Wow that moon really DOES look a lot like THIS

FG

Posted by Dan_raven (Member # 3383) on :

Why does the picture only show a sliver of the moon?

Because its covered by The Dark Side

You all realize the monolith is on the white side of Iapetus, right? Escape would be easy if we just had some good manned spaceships.

Posted by Dan_raven (Member # 3383) on :

Relax everyone. Its just an optical illusion.

Relax.

[force] These aren't the droid..er..Deathstar you are looking for.[/force]

Mabus: ...it's full of stars....

Posted by Dagonee (Member # 5818) on :

It's...something wonderful!

Posted by Kwea (Member # 2199) on :

If the last two movies are any guide, we will be safe.

Unless they send Jar Jar here as ambassador.

I'd rather they blow us up.

Help us Obi-Wan Kenobi...you're our only hope.

Posted by Alcon (Member # 6645) on :

You know, for all we REALLY know about it it could be an alien space station abandoned long ago in orbit around saturn. I mean we don't know a whole lot, and we can't see it very well becuase the picture quality there is pretty crappy [Big Grin]

And Star Wars was supposed to be a long long time ago, so perhaps thats the 3rd death star, that was finished during the rise of the New Republic and we are in fact all the decendants of its builders who decided it was time to give up instead of getting their butts kicked again and all went natural again, leaving all their technology behind on the Death Star to settle for the quiet, simple life on Earth [Big Grin]
