No, it would Again come you will, hmm?

Does anyone read The Star Wars Insider? They did an issue devoted to the Simpsons and Star Wars-because the show has so many SW refs. I could scan some pics if you guys want!  
(and if I could find the issue, and see if the scanner is working at the lab!)

It went:  
Bart as Luke  
Homer as Vader  
Lisa as Leia  
Marge as Threepio  
Maggie as Artoo  
Otto Man as Han

I just flashed another one through my brain - Barney as a Gammorean guard.

And what about Lionekl Hutz as Moff Tarkin “Lord Vader, this Death Star won’t be ready until next Thursday”

What a fun thread, Doubleclick.

Oh, yes. “Whoa, hold on back there, little dudes!”

Stampy the Elephant could always make an appearance as a Wampa. Or a Taun-Taun. “Luke, you already had a Taun-Taun. His name was Entrails. You loved him.”

Sideshow Bob as Boba Fett? Nah, waste of Kelsey Grammer. He’s gotta do something, though.

Please tell me everyone saw the _Prisoner_ spoof on the Simpsons last night.

Back when I had Usenet access, a wonderful fellow by the tag of Serenleono suggested how \* Star Wars \* would have been cast in the Golden Age.

Luke Skywalker: Jimmy Stewart.  
“Ah, Aunt Beru, me and the boys wanted to go up to Mos Eisley and just kind of, ah, hang out . . .”

Han Solo: Humphrey Bogart.  
“He’s the brains, shweetheart.”

Darth Vader: George Sanders.  
“You can’t win, Darth.”  
“A dull cliche.”  
"If you strike me down, I will only become more powerful than you could possibly imagine.  
“You have a point. An idiotic one, but a point.”
