The official, purely speculative, non social, beard and food theory thread.

How Do you find these things?! Forgive me if this has already been done but what about people who use Wigs? What IS the stance on Wigs, and what wigs do these rules apply to; fashion wigs, necessary wigs, comedy wigs etc.

Forgive my ignorance, but a woman across my road wears a wig and I'm getting mighty suspicious as to her REAL intentions....

 

OK guys, if this topic hasn't had any replies in **2 days**, let it go. Queeq, you've dug up this thread twice, after it dies for two days, with nonsensical off-topic posts. If it drops, LET IT GO, please.

hmmm, just revisiting the place after a long absence. Why for do u still not like us Vert? We've been good, there haven't been off topic posts. If it's Sebulba's post u refer to, it may seem off topic but it really isn't since it helps to solidify a theory we have applied to Star Wars. And I'm not diggin up a buried thread either, I have this thread bookmarked so for all I know it's on the 2nd or the 10th page, but I don't think it should matter cause when people bring up other threads that fall behind after a while, u don't insist they die. We've got some real great theories going here and there's many out there who like to discuss them. You know there's no place else for us to go, I won't mention why, but there's certainly no reason why we can't at least still have this. Not to mention we have new people posting all the time. People like our theories, they're good and they work and they're being expanded upon all the time, so I say BEARD AND FOOD THEORY IS NOT DEAD! BEARD AND FOOD THEORY IS LIFE! Please Vertical....don't throw us away. You've been so kind to us in the past, don't turn your back on us now. There is a rich world of food and hair in the SW universe, I really think (dare I say) it's something even you could get into. You've no doubt inspected this thread with a fine tooth comb(or fork? no pun intended) throughout it's time here and as a result I'll bet there's a wealth of food and hair knowlege u posess that u don't even know about. I"ll bet you've got some really insightful things u could add to our ever growing theories here, so rather than abandoning us, I invite u to join the discussion and help maintain the glory that is food and hair theory!

Thanks -
- Shoeless

P.S.,
If u disagree and ask the thread to die again, rest assured a food or beard spoiler will no doubt reveal itself and this thread shall rise (and thrive) again! Better to hop on the bandwagon early on now than wait till later when you've missed so much of the discussion

 

Yes, let's say it again: BEARD AND FOOD THEORY IS NOT DEAD! BEARD AND FOOD THEORY IS LIFE!

Vertical, I am a little disappointed too. We've been good boys (again) and I'd like to stress I am NOT digging up old threads. If I am away for two days and I'd like to reply to what other contributors to the theory have said, I would hardly call that 'digging up old threads'. Many great threads come back after a few days or even weeks on no-activity.
Furthermore, there used to be a policy on this board in the old days, when we still had a search engine: "Read before you post". So I can start a new thread on beards or food, but I like the old policy. I saves server space and avoids redundant threads.
So I feel we have done everything to meet your requirements (again) and I'd like to ask you to stop changing them. Maybe you should try growing a beard.

OK, we all know George has a beard, but ever notice how others on his staff also keep the goodness of hair flowing? Nothing major, but its nice to see that Geroge keeps to the theory in real life, too. Observe below.

Vert, I've been buried in cases at work and working long hours. I don't have enough time in a day to sneak in any quality posting. Just reading takes up all my extra time, what little I can find. I've also been sick, so don't feel like "talking" to anyone, much less thinking, outside of necessity at work. My cases are so grim now, I don't want to talk to anybody. Let's see, current cases besides the regular child support and paternity, marriage, divorce, annulment issues, include rape, assault, battered spouses, victim/witness protection, federal crimes, fugitive status, kidnapping. Gee, the moon will be full on Sunday, but this rising moon is really doing a number on my client count, so PLEASE keep our beloved beard thread alive. We all seem to have deadlines this week. thanks.

BTW, Vert, would luv to see you in a beard

 

Good call, BobaPhil. Makes you wonder what is wrong with Rick McCallum. Does he have a facial hair growth problem or does he just not GET Star Wars.

queeq out

 

queeq, with his shock of wild hair on his head, although without beard, Rick seems to be the counterpoint, and therefore, balance, to GL's beard of about 35 years, considering when he was young, GL had a very long luxurious growth of beard during the OT. With time, he has mellowed to the growth where he twizzles and tugs at his beard when he thinks deeply, thereby enforcing the theory of beard tugging and deep thoughtfulness.

 

This is damn eerie. I was just playing with mine as I read that. keo, I think you have a power not unlike the one I have with respect to turkey sandwiches. Anyway.

I want Mace Windu with a beard at some point (E3, probably). If I remember right, Sam wears one in 'Caveman's Valentine', and it looks pretty good. I wanna see this character change physically somewhat over the 12-year span of the prequels.

 

Hi Peds, good to see you around again. And thanks, Keo, that was very enlightening.

Yes, Mace with a beard... that sounds OK with me. He is still totally bald in Ep2 if these storyboards are correct. He would need it to wind up on the good side. But there was some talk or very vague rumour that Mace might die in Ep2. Ep3 would make more sense to me though.

queeq out

 

Hey, queeq, how goes it?

Sam doesn't die in this one; it'll be in E3. I remember him saying that he wants to be murdered at Vader's hands. We'll see about that. And I still think he needs a beard.

 

Okay I got a new question, Will Anakin grow a beard prematurelly and this lead to his turn to the dark side? I mean if he starts growing one as a padawan this could explain why he turned. Because he wasn't ready for all that power and responiblity but he wanted it.

 

A beard on Mace is good, Peds, I agree. It's time he comes out of the closet and shows the world he is indeed good.

Hi PK, long time no talk, due to busy times at my work.
I think Anakin will not grow a beard at all. Maybe padawans are not allowed to, OB1 didn't have one in TPM though he did have the age for it. I think Anakin's refusal of growing a beard is a foreboding that he is evil. That's why Mace has GOT to grow one, but Anakin won't. He is already evil, he just doesn't know it yet. By the time the lava gets to him, it'll be too late to grow one.

queeq out

 

Hey, Peds, Queeq, I would think that by ep 3 Mace would have a beard, albeit remaining smooth as an eight-ball on top. Seems that Mace walks the fine line between both worlds, although his spirit seeks the truth, therefore, his soul is towards the light.

 

Howdy PK, keo. I foresee no beard in Ani's future. He's just not the guy to wear one. Plus, baby-face goes down at 21; it's possible that he couldn't get a full one going by then, anyway.

 

Hello Pedro Queeq and Keo. Well the thing is I was thinking with the premature growth of a bread on Anakin possible help to lead to his downfall because he wants to take the quick and easy path and do things his own way and by growing a beard as a padawan showing his impatience to wait. So he grows one because he thinks he is ready for the responsiblity that comes along with it. But at the other end maybe he won't like you guys said meaning he's evil. Which we know. But I thought it was something intresting to discuss.

 

Howdy all. Recently got through watching the Episode 2 featurette at the beginning of my advanced copy of the rereleased OT. I thought everyone would be happy to hear that Joel Eggerton "Owen Lars" sports some mighty fine stubblage, much reminiscent of OT Owen. Unfortunately Owen was the only male character shown in costume so I can't report on the beardiness of any other characters, but Owen seems at least somewhat at one with the beard

 

Great news, Shoeless. What a great way to start the week. Any possibility you can stream that featurette into the computer and mail it to me?

OK, PK, I see what you mean. Maybe Anakin began shaving at a very early age to show his eagerness to take the quick and easy path. Maybe he cut himself to often causing a growing anger against OB1 for not showing him how to shave, how not to go against the grain. That's where the hint is: Anakin shaves himself by going against the grain i.e. turning evil.

The plot thickens...

queeq out

 

ORRRRR, the peachfuzz of the youthful Anakin, does not grow properly into any kind of future fullness of the beard because of the struggle within his own being, the struggle that transpires from the events that will turn him to the dark side prevents the fullness of his beard from developing. To prevent himself from looking like a missfit, he does indeed shave or threatens to remove the fuzziness of the unfullfillment, perhaps wanting to emulate Mace Windu, not knowing that Mace himself struggles within, also.

 

Vauguely related topic, me boyos?

How will Lucas show the time elapsed on characters he doesn't give the glory of the beard?

 

Storyline should do it, wouldn't you say?

 

Latest report on TFN, regarding Jar Jar:

?If you thought Jar Jar looked great in TPM, wait til you see hee him now. Gone are the leather clothes and gangly ears, he wears something more like the leader of the Gungans from Episode I, Boss Nass.

Also another interesting rumor is that his ears are going the route of Amidala's hair in Episode I. Like her having different hair in different scenes, his ears are in different 'styles' throughout the film!"

So it seems some of our Jar Jar theories may prove correct though not as we expected? I know we were toying with the idea a while back that Jar Jar may have some whiskers or somethin to show he's with the beard, but apparently the power of the hair will reach him another way. Do to the Gungans' natural hairlessness, Jar Jar must improvise to convey his oneness with the beard and it seems he'll be going the route of weird hairstyles=good. Despite it being ears rather than hair, I believe the theory translates....unless a whole new Ear theory is being developed? Well I don't want to get ahead of myself, but bravo Jar Jar for showing everybody that you'll make a great hero yet!

 

I think we haven't got enough clues to make up an Ear Theory. And I look forward to JarJar's new outfit, which means a new doll as well. (merchandise alert)

But whiskers, that would be interesting. teh only that will make him interesting for this thread anyway.

queeq out

 

Tried to post several times last night, but they kept getting lost in the great out there, so I gave up. Was thinking of maybe GL will give Jar Jar fuzzy ears or stubble to "age" him appropriately with wisdom.

 

hmmm....hair on a Gungan? Could be mighty strange, I think the wiskers 'a la Captain Tarpals' are the equivalent to Gungan facial hair, so if anything maybe JJ grows some of those, but otherwise I think his hair power will be purely conveyed through his wacky ear styles, much like the SW women convey their goodness through wacky hair styles 'a la' Princess Leia and Queen Amidalla.
