    Wow, I love the music.
    Very soothing, thanks Wil very nice find.
    Cant spoiler but love some of the Return Of The Jedi, subtle jests.

    Agreed with Hekate180. Nice and relaxing. Perfect nostalgia music.

    That is beautiful. I missed the feeling of being utterly incapacitated by Star Wars!

    To keep the Geekiverse in balance, Hayden Christensen needs to promote a synopsis of Next Gen done with sock puppets.

    God, I hate Star Wars. I hate the movies. I hate the books. I hate the parodies, the homages, the tributes, the porn versions, the everything. And I hate any film maker who sacrifices story for production. I’m embarrassed to live in the same galaxy cluster as Lucas.

    That was simply awesome and I cant wait to share it with the Mega Star Wars fans in my life!

    3D done right. And no Ewoks. Doesn’t get better.

    I saw this posted yesterday somewhere else, it is indeed superbly done, picking the best bits from each film.

    Exactly my thought. 😉

    OK, the AT-ST looking up at the AT-AT was probably the cutest Star Wars thing ever. #justsayin

    I hope you weren’t trolling, because that is exactly how I feel. I couldn’t have put it better myself.

    Very cool. I am actually Ok with the whole series.
    I actually like parts of 1, 2 and 3. Espeically Qui Gon Jinn.
    Four and five are probably the best.
    Number two is the best of the prequels.
    My least favorite is the third one but even parts of that are good.
    I love STAR WARS but at the end of the day its just a movie.

    that’s beautiful…
    but here’s the REAL story:

    Wil;
    That was cool, I’m a 64yo guy who just finished reading Just a Geek, any want to say that is the wrong title, it should be
    “How To Be A Man” that thing between our legs makes us male not a man. You have been through more BS in a few years than most go through in there entire life but you hang in and keep on going not making a mess of your life. Not only have I seen you in STNG & Stand By Me but also in Toy Soldier, December, Book of Days, and even Flubber and you were good in all of them. All were different and you played them differently. It’s obvious that you have a great wife and fantastic parents they should be and I’m sure that they are proud of you and you should be proud of yourself. Keep up the good work that book should be required reading for troubled youth and adults.

    I cannot strongly enough reccomend getting the audio book of it from his online store Harvey the emotion in the reading is so uplifting and times and wrenching at others.
    I intend to get the days of our lives audio book next which from what you have said in your review about parents/man etc may be an excellent listen for you.

    I want to like this, I really do. And the animation is kind of cool, but the music causes me actual physical pain. It makes my brain twitch and I want to stick sharp pencils in my ears to make it stop.

    Jeremy did a superb job. Thanks so much Wil for sharing. And the music was beautiful. Does anyone know the title/Artist of the song playing?

    I have lost track of how many times I’ve watched this with my four year old.

    Sorry, off topic, but just a reminder–tomorrow at some point the date and time will be 10/10/10 10:10:10. Awesome.

    In the interest of following Wheaton’s law, I must edit a sentence here.
    I meant Thanks for exposing us TO THIS VIDEO.

    Hopefully a new post is coming up soon.
