Posted: Dec 21 2009 07:49 pm

you know, i get that error now too. it was working when i posted it, but now i get that stupid error.

Weird, I haven't got that either time I clicked the link. I think they are pretty unique, so for people who can't get to the link here are the photos of them and a brief description. The Chewie one is $103, and the cheapest is $69 (It doesn't say which one). They are expensive because they are all made and shipped from Japan.

I'd get the Darth hat if it wasn't all shiny, and the Jabba hat looks pretty cool.

It works now but thanks for posting them for us weak-minded people Sexton. I wouldn't wear any of them but the Jabba's one is the coolest.

Haha no problem pineapple. I wouldn't wear any of them either, but I do like that Chewie one, it could come in handy in the winter.

You're right! I bet a million bucks those fuzzy flaps fold down over your ears for those cold winter storms.

I know what you're thinking right now. "Who in the hell is Koyi Matei?" I haven't the slightest clue, but she was probably the chief protagonist in Episode 2, or something.

Those are nice, but I like the Tauntaun sleeping bag better:

I love Star Wars, but if I ever saw someone wearing one of those hats, I'd totally kick their ass for being a nerd. Maybe shove them into some lockers, too.

See, there are nerds, and then there are the nerds that make us all look like assholes. Those people need beatdowns.

It's the same thing with the Marc Ecko Vader hoodie. He's a Sith lord, not a fucking BSDM fetishist.

There was a time I believe when Star Wars was actually cool.

But I believe it was between the time of the Special Edition movies and Episode 1, where people started making it incredibly geeky. I think it actually exceeds what Star Trek nerdum now.

There's a guy I know who readily admitted that he likes to walk around pretending he has a lightsaber. He also had a crush on the CGI girl mutant thing from Clone Wars.

And I don't own anything Star Wars, not even own the movies since Lucas has altered the versions I grew up watching, I'm pretty sure that even the "untouched" versions contain maskless Vader without eyebrows.

I will admit, I actually do kinda want that Taun Taun sleeping bag.

Hahahahahaha, the Taun-taun sleeping bag is one of the funniest and most clever things I have seen in my life, haha.

Dude, of all the things he changed, the eyebrows? He wouldn't have eyebrows after laying next to a river of lava, that's a realistic change!

Nonetheless...I don't care if he changed it to fit the new movies, I want the movies I watched as a 7 year old, you just can't add or delete things that I remember and it'll always be in the back of my mind when I watch it. Realistic or not, I wouldn't have even known about the whole volcano thing if they didn't tack that stuff on later. If he can't just provide that for those of us who don't look at the prequels in the same light, then he can keep catering to those who needlessly pay him every time he puts more of the same out.

I don't remember him ever having eyebrows when Luke took his helmet off, screenshot? Confused

I'll check the DVD at some point when I'm not feeling sick as shit. I don't feel like going downstairs and rifling through my DVDs right now. But I have the untouched versions (sadly, they came bundled with the 2004 edits), and I find it hard to believe that they'd leave in such a minor change. I mean, it's not like the took the newer editions and just clicked "undo" on all the changes. They are supposed to be the original theatrical releases. A New Hope even has the original title card, for God's sake.

But according to this site, his eyebrows should be intact: http://www.chefelf.com/starwars/ep6se_1.php

If I had the spare cash, I'd pick up that storm trooper hat.

And Star Wars fanboys flipping out over eyebrows? Wow.

I'm not a fanboy

I don't own anything Star Wars related...I was just showing those who didn't notice.

Posted: Dec 30 2009 11:56 pm

Didn't mean that to come off as an insult. Sorry.

It's just something I would've never noticed after watching Star Wars 100 times.

Yeah...and it's not really a huge deal unless it does catch you off guard like it did me...so it's almost impossible to watch these movies because it interrupts the film experience for you. If by some means I didn't notice to begin with, it probably wouldn't bother me.

Posted: Dec 31 2009 01:21 pm

Dude, if you can't enjoy a movie because one character in one scene for five seconds no longer has eyebrows, you've got issues.
