revenge of the chirophobic

finally managed to see the final installment of star wars (“uh, well, ahem, actually, the film in theaters now is technically the third installment, you most likely saw the ‘final’ way back in” -fuck you) and it was enjoyable. while sitting there in the theater, mid lightsaber battle, i had an epiphany about this epic which changed my conception of it completely and suddenly cast a new light on the proceedings. what dawned on me was this: george lucas has a raging, shivering in the corner, sweating and whimpering case of chirophobia.


Harhar! Well observed my young apprentice. Now let’s just be happy that George didn’t make porn or went into more of a David Lynch style of movies ...

alternate dialogue:

“hands do not matter…...judge me by my hands do you….hhhhhmmmmm?” 

“chirophobia is strong with that one”

“i sense great fear of sweaty palms in you”

I was wondering about the hand thing too.  Good job figuring that out.  BTY, I’m impressed with the pics.

On a slightly unrelated note,  I read that some people are advocating watching the SW movies in a 4, 5, 1, 2, 3, 6 order rather than straight 1-6.  It actually seems like it would be much better that way.  Basically, episodes 1-3 become a flashback about the creation of darth vader after you learn that he is luke’s father.  You also keep some of the suspense, which seems totaly lost if you actually watched the movies 1-6.  good stuff.

Awsum! I think the very first arm-lopping occurs in the cantina (the hairy dude who ‘doesn’t like’ luke).

Maybe it’s all just a sub-freudian anti-masturbation message? If thine hand offend thee, somebody gonna cut it off.

@tom- ah yes! forgot about that guy. will have to see if i can find an image, though it’s not likley. as for the “sub-freudian anti-masturbation message” my girlfirend suggested the same exact thing. freud and his damn filthy mind… @rich- 4,5,1,2,3,6? sure why not? maybe they’ll start selling benzadrene again just for that application. in truth though, i’m glad it’s over.

@tom: Perfect! And never forget the female lightsaber envy.
