Jabba (probably) wasn’t personally sexually attracted to Leia or his other humanoid female slaves. But he knew that many people in the galaxy would be. So having them as slaves served as a status symbol, which, for Jabba, was probably more important than sex.
It’s like the businessman who has a gorgeous trophy wife, but then is always away on business trips.
Yoda and Obi-Wan wanted Luke to kill Vader. In fact, Obi-Wan says Luke has.
Luke: I can’t do it, Ben.
Obi-Wan: You cannot escape your destiny. You must face Darth Vader again.
Luke: I can’t kill my own father.
Obi-Wan: Then the Emperor has already won. You were our only hope.
Obi-Wan’s message - kill your father or the Emperor wins.
I don’t know. He seemed to like licking her. I think he performed some sort of slug on human cunnilingus.
Remeber, CPO says he “can’t bear to watch” whatever it is Jabba is about to do.
He was about to end a sentence with a preposition.
“Master, I am fluent in over six million forms of communication; you could at least listen to my grammar lessons…”
Why not kill your deadbeat Dad, though? He’s obviously a really bad person, and the galaxy would be better off if Vader were defeated.
Besides, its not like Luke really had a father-son relationship with him. I mean, Uncle Owen was more his father-figure than Vader was up to his announcement.
Actually, it’d be more like Doenitz pulling out his pistol and blowing Hitler’s head off…but, I know, any excuse to bitch about Lucas. That is what the thread was for after all.
So, since there’s so many pathetic, drooling Lucas fans, can you show me somewhere on the SDMB that we’ve got people defending the “Greedo shot first” change?
-Joe
I can defend it, if you want. But the defense would be centered around the fact that Lucas is the creator and owner of everything Star Wars, and if he wants to ruin his creation and drag it through the gutters of a thousand worlds, desecrating the memories of millions of fans, that is his right. 
Damned sandbaggers!
Or Jar-Jar. The only enjoyment I’ve ever gotten from him was that one episode of “Spaced”, which was quite hilarious.
“Jar Jar Binks makes the Ewoks look like fucking Shaft!”
-Joe
Ahh…let’s see, Episode 2.2, “Change”.
(shamelessly riped from Wiki)
[To a Star Wars: The Phantom Menace fan]
Tim: You are so blind! You so do not understand! You weren't there at the beginning. You don't know how good it was! How important! This is it for you! This jumped-up firework display of a toy advert! People like you make me sick! What's wrong with you?! Now, I don't care if you've saved up all your fifty 'p's, take your pocket money and get out!
[The little boy runs off, crying]
Tim: What a prick.
Bilbo Bagshot: I was like you once. Blonde hair. Scraggly little beard. Childlike ears. Full of beans, and spunk. I let my principles get in the way of things. I once punched a bloke out once for saying Hawk the Slayer was rubbish.
Tim: Good for you.
Bilbo Bagshot: Yeah, thanks. But that's not the point, Tim. The point is I was defending the fantasy genre with terminal intensity, when what I should have said was "Dad, you're right - but let's give Krull a try, and we'll discuss it later." [pause] The Phantom Menace was eighteen months ago, Tim!
Tim: I know Bilbo, but... it still hurts, you know? I mean, that kid wanted a Jar Jar doll!
Bilbo: Kids like Jar Jar!
Tim: Why?
Bilbo Bagshot: What about the Ewoks eh? They were rubbish. You don't complain about them.
Tim: Yeah but Jar Jar Binks makes the Ewoks look like... fuckin'... Shaft.
God, that was an awesome series. Maybe someone WILL RELEASE IT ON REGION FUCKING TWO ALREADY!!!
-Joe
Other defense:
Did Greedo shooting first prevent you from buying any VHSes or DVDs from 1997 to 2004?
And did the desire to see Han shooting first prompt you to pay for an additional DVD in September 2006?
Yes.
No.
yes and soon
Besides, Alderaan (sp?) was populated by a bunch of wimpy, weaponless pinko liberals, so he gets a buy for that one.
Sorry to have touched on such an emotional subject for you. Please forgive me for making any negative comments about Lucas.
I still have the fucking Ewoks.
Damn your impudence, Sir! I’ll have you know that I do not drool!
So… do you have them in a “I’m holding them ransom” way, or in a “You stupid assholes left them at my place last week! They’re shedding all over the sofa! Would you come get them already?!”
oops, hate, hate!! My hatred for them blinds me from correct spelling! Maybe those damn Ewoks changed my post! bastards! JUUUUB JUUUUUB! JUUUUB JUUUUB!
What? My SPACED dvd is Region 2. You mean Region 1, don’t cha?
Heavens, no!
No, because the unaltered version is non-anamorphic :mad:
