In other news, I'm feeling much better now after Friday. I can walk up the stairs like a boss again.

Why? Have daleks had vasectomies too?

Are those R1 Astromech droids?

(reference to another thread)

And it sounds a lot less cool when you write it out to explain it, instead of watching overly-muscular guys pretend to hit each other,

Bah! Phooey! I thought for sure that Bryan would win against Roman Reigns - that the writers would give him back the belt (well, set him up to beat Brock) after he was forced to drop it last year - and come on, Bryan vs Brock would have been pure MAGIC.

And that that Bray promo - I kept thinking "there's no way that the Undertaker would fit in THAT small a coffin!" HAH! Psyche!

Oh man, when the Undertaker's music came on.... I just hope he breaks Bray Wyatt in half!

I knew Reigns would win, they've been pushing him hard to become Champion, but the match last night was good and clean. I'm surprised there were no interferences, to be honest.

I know full well what is gonna happen though - Roman Reigns is going to beat Brock Lesnar, he'll be holding up the belt, cheers everywhere... and then Seth Rollins smacks him over the back of the head with his Money In The Bank Briefcase, cashes in his Championship Match contract, and steals the Championship from Reigns, starting a whole new feud.

What's next? Monster truck rallies?

UH, so do I need to post pictures of my life-size Darth Maul? From this collection:

Yes, Jason is my brother-in-law.

I'm sad, I can not look at the picture...

Oh, I know that they've been trying to get Roman over for a while now, so the Brock < Roman < Seth domino fall is almost certain that the way Wrestlemainia will shake out - but I still was holding out hope that Bryan would get another push. Ah well!

What's next? Monster truck rallies?

Did someone say Monster Truck?

Hell yeah!

I googled Star Wars and Monster Truck and wasn't let down.

An R2 drag racing... thing!

Almost as cool as this classic:

I'm sad, I can not look at the picture...

It’s a picture that my brother-in-law (Jason Geyer) posted to his website actionfigureinsider.com regarding his experiences in designing and overseeing the construction of four life-size figures for the Pepsi/Frito-Lay promotion for “The Phantom Menace”. That was linked from the article at http://www.actionfigureinsider.com/ottertorials/2008/02/10/rejected-a-long-long-time-ago/

For Christmas that year, the promotional/advertisements company Jason was working for decided that they would make presents to all of their employees one of each of the four figures that were going to be produced, plus one extra of their choice. Jason chose to get two Darth Maul figures, and he kept one and gave the other one to me as my Christmas present that year.

I consider myself to be one of the luckiest Star Wars geeks on the planet, because of Jason.

It shouldn't have to come to this but...

bump.

Wait wait wait.... Pepsi... made a life sized Jar Jar? What's the message they are sending? "Not only do we make a soda that leaves your tongue feeling fuzzy, we also hate the world so much we have done what even George wouldn't do. We brought Jar Jar into the real."

I'm really looking forward to GMing for my friends this weekend, but I feel really under prepared. It will be our 4th session, and since we only play once a month they are practically frothing at the mouth to get game time in. I could probably have them sit around and roll dice for no reason for 3 hours and they would think it was awesome.

Keep in mind that all the work on the characters was done before the movies came out.

Yes, Jason was very underwhelmed when he saw Jar Jar in the movie. But even he couldn’t fix the mess that George made.

Since this is the junk thread - and despite it being a Star Wars forum, and not a Trek forum - lets take a moment and pour out a 40 of Romulan Ale (or Tranya, if you prefer) for one of the true genre giants.

I'm not much of a Trek fan, and I was still saddened by the news. Much more than I thought I would be.

Live long and prosper, friends.

Here here! May he find peace in the Undiscovered Country.

As the internet has said, he lived long, and prospered.

Makes a person feel old, though.

Poor thread. How could we let it slide down the listings? Shame on us...

Seriously... 20 pages... stills open?! XDD

I am in Istanbul... Pretty awesome place if you aske me.

I never made it to Istanbul. I wanted to, but the wife had us set to see a historical site towards the west end of Turkey instead. Maybe next time.

Ok... you wanted it...

I have faith that random nonsense will keep this baby going past 42 pages, like the infamous ErikB derailed thread of 2013 about Dave Filoni...

We're about halfway there...
