Musings on The Empire Strikes Back

[monkeyfunk]

No wonder the Evil regime ultimately failed with the stormtroopers in charge. By God, this model force of fearsomely accurate marksmen can't hit a barndoor with a banjo. Darth Vader may aswell have employed Oompa-Loompas. Which would have made a much more surreal film, I think you'll agree.

Oompa Loompa, doopity-doo

And Mr Bronson from Grange Hill was part of the Imperial high command!

The oldest enemy of the acting profession - typecasting!

Doesn't Clive whateverhisname is who plays Vader have a cornish accent? My boyfriend conveniently told me this halfway through watching it tonight so needless to say we ruined the rest of the film by repeating lines in farmer accents.

Childish nerd? Me? Slanderous ;)

I couldn't watch it with orange faced midgets in it though, that would just scare me.

I keep playing the bit where they're all on the enemy ship and one of the stormtroopers in the background smacks his head on the door...beautiful!...Oompa Loompas need no shiny black figurehead! They've got thier evil empire running by joining with the equely deranged Hari Krishnas to create Harry Bo!!!! I tell ya the end is nigh!!!!(for our teeth)

And wasn't there a rumour that in the film, Leia calls Luke "Mark" or Luke calls Leia "Carrie"? I've never been able to spot it.
