Star Wars

28 July 2010

To commemorate the 30th anniversary of 'The Empire Strikes Back' a couple of people (between 12.000 and 15.000) got together in Santiago de Compostela to celebrate.

Sort of.

They paraded in full Imperial Stormtrooper regalia through the streets, carrying along Han Solo frozen in carbonite. Of course accompanied by Boba Fett, not letting his prize get out of sight.

In the end they received a speech by the dark lord of the Sith, Darth Vader.

See all the pictures here.

Along the same lines, the people from 'Improv Everywhere' (as featured yesterday) got on a New York subway. Just watch the video.

I can't help but thinking: "It's the Kitty Genovese case all over again".

And what if James Earl Jones had gotten his act wrong? After all, he was just beginning in the acting business, so it's easy to mess up, right?

I guess it would have been something like this:

Zo, eindelijk weer een post. Wat ben je allemaal aan het doen man?

We zijn een weekje weg geweest. Even een campingexperiment met de kinderen. Was wel een aparte ervaring, vooral ook omdat het in de buurt van Valkenswaard was ten tijde van de brand.
