Ah, Ben Burtt. Back in the day when sound designers had to be truly creative. Also liked to put the dreaded "Wilhelm Scream" into everything.

Wow. That's a whole other movie right there.

"You're lucky you don't taste very good."

I'll always love Baker's oft told story of being left (i.e. trapped) in the R2 unit for over an hour because the crew went to lunch and forgot to take him out. He laughs it off in the telling, but my word, that must've been horrible.

I didn't think all of them actually used pumpkin, because most of them just taste/smell like pumpkin pie spice (you know, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, ginger, etc.) I mean, is there such a thing as pumpkin juice? Ack.

A game of HORSE? We'll call it Star Wars Jam- Um..nah.
How about White Men Can't Jump In Zero Gravity?

No. (We're not talking monetarily, right?)

I'm sure Sammy and Dean got Sinatra to do it as a favor or something. but why they couldn't all be in the same room for a scene that probably took an hour to shoot, I have no idea.

I'll just wait for the porn versions. (There's one for The Force Awakens and let me just say, no spoilers, it was quite convenient that it had a female protagonist.)

That's the 2020 film: The Kessel Run: A Star Wars Story (Yes Yes, We Know Parsec is a Unit of Distance Not Time, Get Over It Already)

I hope they don't bother with that, but of course they will, because everything, and I mean everything casually mentioned in the original trilogy has to be acted out.

"I have altered the deal, pray I don't alter it further…"

It's not 1973 but Staircase came out in 1969. Based on a then current play, Rex Harrison and Richard Burton were paid $1M apiece to portray an aging gay couple in London. It bombed at the box-office, of course, as film-goers probably weren't into the subject matter even with the star power of Burton and Harrison.…

If "commitment to the bit" was funny in and of itself, Will Ferrell- I mean Will Forte would be the funniest man alive.

I suppose Moore found it fun to play against his Bond image. You also have to remember that Moore is 3 years older than Connery and was 58 when his last Bond film, A View to a Kill came out. Connery quit Bond when he was 41.

I'm glad a that a ploy to create a "Franchise Starter" made by a jealous studio head and an indifferent director, promoted in the most counterproductive way (jumping on the YouTube negative votes was a desperate gambit) that ultimately failed (as a franchise starter) at the box office- most likely because the film…

I agree. On the Bad Star Trek Continuum "Spock's Brain" is at least goofy, ridiculous fun.

She was funny on Portlandia as well.

And a good thing too. It's sure great to hear "Get Down" and "Clair" (I'll throw in "Ooh Wakka Doo Wakka Day" while I'm at it) after hearing "Alone Again Naturally."

True, but even when they had a recurring planet, they did little to show pluralism. i.e. Klingon for one, and also Bajor from Deep Space Nine.
