    Who's your favorite character from all the Star Wars films?  Mine would probably be Luke Skywalker.  He was like Rocky Balboa with a lightsaber, the small-town boy making it big in the galaxy.
        I'd love to have a lightsaber at Thanksgiving.  Man, could I do some serious turkey slicing then!

    Darth Vader. I used to know the guy who was in the suit - Dave Prowse - He is an awesome person and used to own a gym near where I lived in Birmingham.

    Of course, you never got to see him - just the suit LOL

      My favorite too, James Earl Jone's voice made the character.

    I saw this thread and knew I had to post something since I love Star Wars (much to the dismay of my wife!)

    My favorite character is probably also Yoda.  The scene where he finally broke out into a full light sabre fight in Episode two was pretty sweet, I must say!  (Seen here if you're interested: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aJ6ZHBPK4LI )

    Plus, you have to say he pretty much saved the Jedi when they were down and almost out at the start of the original trilogy.

        Well... I imagine it would be like that.  After a rainny day though it could be like a smelly wet carpet ! 

        BTW can you post me a photo of Chewb.  I don't know how to do it.  Thanks!

      Not my favorite character (in fact I found Princess Leia irritating) but I love this costume!

    R2D2 and 3CPO (Or was it C3PO?) If it wasn't for them I probably never would have gotten involved with computers.
    The whole Stars Wars series especially the core plot with Luke and the "force" is a good metaphor for life and my belief of God as Energy and our responsibility to use it properly.

    My boys (ages 8 and 10) are completely into Star Wars!!  Its so funny because I was their age when the original (Episode IV) came out!  That being said.... my favorite character is Han Solo (cause he's so darned HOT! - and I love his wry, "whatever" approach to saving the Resistance)

    C'mon Wedding Consultant - post me a photo!  Thanks - Steph

      I agree Steph! I remember crying in the movie theater during  "Empire" when he was frozen.  My mother threatened to make me leave.

    You must have known I was sick and under the weather.  Thank you.  I'm going to bed now.  I know I'll have pleasant dreams.  LOL.  wink

    Sure, anything you say (and it certainly wasn't b/c of the pathetic begging). LOL

    Oh Thank You, Peter and Wedding Consultant.  (cough, cough).  I'm still under the weather, but dear Han Solo... he brings a smile to my face.  smile

  18. WeddingConsultant profile image65
    WeddingConsultantposted 16 years ago

    Sure!

    So is it safe to say you'll be watching the new Indiana Jones movie or does "the force" of your fanship of Harrison Ford only pertain to Star Wars?

  19. stephhicks68 profile image87
    stephhicks68posted 16 years ago

    Oh my goodness - I LOVE Indiana Jones too!!  And I am lucky enough to have young fans in the household that will give me an excuse to go to the movie with me (in case hubby raises his eyebrows... LOL)!!!  Can't wait to see it.  smile

    haha I thought you'd like it!  I'll be sure to watch it as well, but I might wait for the DVD to come out so I can rent it.
