Lit Apropos of Nothing - ACKBAR IN CAPITALS - The Lit Forum Social Thread, v2.0.15

Well, that explains your username.

 

Oh come on, now I'm being picked apart for movies I have seen, just not recently

I haven't seen Citizen Kane either. Miraculously, I don't know the twist that everyone is supposed to know (it was his sled... or something). That's slightly higher priority than Who Framed Roger Rabbit?

 

No, you know it.

Also, Roger Rabbit should so be a higher priority than that.

 

Like I'm going to miss an opportunity to post a Die Hard Rickman pic!

 

Maybe we should just spin this off into a "Fix ID" thread?

 

Like not doing things hasn't ever worked to my advantage. I haven't read LOTF, after all.

 

A clever strategy, using me as a distraction from everyone telling you to do things.

I've read The Hobbit

 

OMG Christopher Lee whatinthejinglehellz??

I actually have Christopher Lee's original Charlemagne album in vinyl. It's unfortunately not very good, but it's Christopher Lee, so that's hardly important.

 

You're not getting out of this that easily!

Now, we could do this the easy way or the hard way. I have duct tape and I use it well.

 

The best part is I can guarantee I'll either dislike or feel nothing towards the majority of movies my life is supposedly incomplete without I don't imagine there are many realities where me liking Beverly Hills Cop is even remotely possible.

It's not that I don't watch a lot of movies now. It's just that they're rarely anything even slightly comedic or fun, because I'm a dreary person who feeds on pain and suffering. I'm looking forward to seeing Jurassic Park, though, just because I somehow know I won't be into it. I liked Jaws enough, but something about Jurassic Park... I guess I'll just have to find out.

 

I thought the same way. Then I watched it.

 

Top Gun and Die Hard are excellent, and I have also seen Beverly Hills Cop and a few of its sequels. And I am pretty sure all of those are older than me, so I am lucky to have seen those.

 

Behold, in it's glory, the fleet of the Alliance to Restore the Republic:



x4 Home One-type MC80 Star Cruisers
x6 Liberty-type MC80 Star Cruisers
x1 MC80B Star Cruiser Mon Remonda
x4 Nebulon-B escort frigates
x1 Quasar Fire-class cruiser/carrier Flurry
x7 CR90 Corellian Corvettes
x3 GR75 medium transports

Special thanks to AdmiralWesJanson for kindly offering me his own task force of warships at a fair price. Thanks again to jSarek for putting the idea of buying the Mon Remonda back in my head after years of not taking any action on it, and thanks to all Fleet Junkies who love a good naval force!

Maybe I will post a image of my Imperial capital ships for GrandAdmiralJello later this week.

Nothing can repel firepower of this magnitude!

Far be it from me to critique ship lengths, but I feel like that might not be to scale.

 

That would be because they are indeed not to scale.

 

Oh you two. Abbot and Costello have nothing on you guys (Zeta in particular makes a wonderful straight man).

 

Have seen -
Big Trouble in Little China
Die Hard
Who Framed Roger Rabbit

No idea what they are -
Beverly Hills Cop
A Few Good Men
When Harry Met Sally



Also why is not Dark Crystal and Labyrinth on that list?
