Harrison Ford - Han Solo, Carrie Fisher - Princess Leia, Peter Mayhew - Chewbacca, Mark Hamil - Luke Skywalker
I have never been part of the Star Wars obsession so that is why this post was not posted earlier in the day. It is here now for those of you who have followed the phenomenon from its inception to present day. Interestingly enough is the manner in which the famous line 'May the force be with you' was misinterpreted in 2005 as "On May 4th we are with you." This led to the first organized celebration of Star Wars Day on May 4, 2011 in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
So, what does one do on Star Wars Day: just about anything one can think of relative to a character or event in the movie. The saga lives on as afternoons are filled with trivia and movie marathons. From music to light sabers to themed food to logo plastered dining wear to costumes of favorite characters, partying continues well into the night.
May the Fourth be with you always!
10. “When 900 years old, you reach… Look as good, you will not.” |
9. “The Dark Side of the Force is the pathway to many abilities some consider to be… Unnatural.” |
8. “You don’t know how hard I found it, signing the order to terminate your life.” |
7. “He’s holding a thermal detonator!” |
6. “I sense great fear in you, Skywalker. You have hate… you have anger… but you don’t use them.” |
5. “Great, kid. Don’t get cocky.” |
4. “Lando’s not a system he’s a man!” |
3. “…I know” |
2. “Luke, you can destroy the Emperor. He has foreseen this. It is your destiny. Join me, and together we can rule the galaxy as father and son.” |
1. “You can’t win, Darth. Strike me down, and I will become more powerful than you could possibly imagine.” |

Thank you for the link Sharla :-)
ReplyDeleteMy favourite character, I am ashamed to say, always has been Luke Skywalker. He is the paragon of good.
Episode is Revenge of the Sith and Return of the Jedi. I also read the Expanded Universe books as well :-)
I LOVED THAT SERIES--BACK WHEN TELEVISION AND MOVIES WERE WORTH WATCHING. GREAT PICS AS ALWAYS--WHAT A DIFFERENCE THEY MAKE.
