Luke Skywalker Fans Unite II!!!

"You know, sleep. I close my eyes and just kind of....drift off...."

 

Quaff: I give you the MVP of this thread. Beautiful job, my friend. Simply beautiful. ROTFLMFAO

 

Ric Olie: "This whole thread is one giant collection of posts..."

 

"Quaff Down Gin is funny."

 

(Continued...)

Olie: "We're going faster.

That thing's getting bigger!

I'm going in!"

I'm not sure, but I think Ric Olie was constantly, and I mean constantly, stating the obvious throughout every scene.

The volume in the theatre was really loud once and I could hear him mumbling whenever the camera wasn't on him...

 

You guys are missing a very important detail!
It's not what he says! (As has been noted, his lines are often necessary to enlighten the non-hard-core moviegoing public!)
The important thing about Ric Olie, and what makes him such a comic genius, is the fact that everything he says is an exclamation!
Ric doesn't say, "Look, there's the blockade."
He says, "Look! There's the blockade!"
It's all in the punctuation, folks! (Wannabe comedians, take note!)

 

uppers!

 

Do you think he gets up in the morning and says, "Good morning! Where's the paper?!"

"But that's a different story altogether..."

 

"That's not a moon... It's a space station!"
"Indeed. And a really big one. As big as a moon, I would say!"

 

Ric Olié:
Look! In Hernalt's post! Just three posts above this one. It's me! I'm flying a ship! I look concerned! Hernalt's a fan of mine! He posted my picture. He likes me!

Ric: I'm not only the President of Hair Club for Men. I'm also a client.

 

If Olie were on Bespin

As Han:
"There's Vader!"
shoots
"Gun's gone!"
turns around
"And there's the stormtroopers waiting for us. This city's all one big city."

As Luke:
"Hand's gone!"
gets mechancal hand
"Hand's back!"

 

Padme Bra:

ROTFLMAO! That one caught me off guard!

Good posts, Quaff-Down and Hernalt

PS. If you all hurry, I bet you have an advantage to answer my question on the

The Phantom Menace Quiz thread:

If you don't get there in time, at least put

That little poster did it!

 

These jokes are a little redundant, but they're still funny as all hell.

If Han had channelled Ric Olie at the end of ROTJ.

HAN: "The Death Star blew up! We didn't hit it!"

LEIA: "It must have been Wedge or Lando."

"One of ours!"

"Yes Han. And don't worry, Luke wasn't there when it was destroyed. For you see, I am beginning to find that I too am strong in the Force."

"Here comes Wicket to meet us!"

"sigh Han, I love Luke, but not like you think. He's my brother. So you and I are free to be together."

"The moon is one big forrest!"

"Just forget it."

"Leia's gone!"

 

Ric Olié:
Look! The thread's back up!

 

"You catch on pretty quick."

 

Ric Olié watching Leia and Luke's Chasm scene in ANH:

"She kissed him! (eyes go wide) On the LIPS!!!"

 

Poor Ric. Has anyone noticed he's not much of a pilot. He flies right into enemy fire.

 

Ric to Anakin: "You catch on quick, that Padme IS cute!"

Ric to Darth Sideous: "You're a menace! A phantom menace!" (that would have been up there with Kevin Costner's sublime line, "Nothing is for free on Water World.")

Ric (regarding Obi-Wan's big moment): "That Jedi did it! He cut that Sith in half!"

Also, I noticed that Han Solo has a lot of Ric moments in ROTJ, perhaps the Carbonite did something to his brain--the worst example is when Han picks up Leia's helmet on the moon of Endor and says, "I hope she's all right." No! Get out of town! I would have thought Han hoped she was dead....go figure!

Lucas should have a seance and try getting some help from the spirit of Leigh Brackett!

 

I think the spirit of Olie also took over Leia.

"It's metal."
"Then it couldn't be one of those creatures!"

"The cave is collapsing!"

"They're coming through!"

"Here they come!"

 

Ric Olié in Otoh Gunga:

Jar Jar: "'tis a hidden city."
all swim down and enter main bubble.
Ric(looks around impressed and strokes chin): "Hmmm, Otoh Gunga, the underwater city. It's completely submerged and nobody can find it!"


Ric Olié at Anakin's house:

Ric(eats too much and feels sick): "I'm blowing up from the inside!"

(I'm not sure if Olié actually says that last one in the movie. Correct me if I'm wrong.)

Ric Olié in Mos Espa:

Ric(points at ground): "Look! It's Tatooine!"
(Everybody turns around and starts beating him up.)
Ric: "Aaargh! The obvious generator's been hit!"

 

Ric Olie is the most intelligent being in the Star Wars universe. He catches on quick.
