Friday" when Will says it's the best movie ever made. When Will asks her
to name any other better movies she mentions "Godfather," "On
the Waterfront," "Citizen Kane," "Raging Bull," and
last but certainly not least, "The Empire Strikes Back." For fans of
the series. Look on
the third disc in the six-disc set. (Thanks to
Jeff/TF.n for #3) [4] Marshall
shouts out at the guards in a foreign language to distract them. When Sidney
asks him what he said, Marshall replies, "I can smell you from here"
in Ewok, And then mumbles and tells her about the official language of the Ewoks,
two different "Yub-Yubs" can be heard in there! (Thanks
to Sebulba-X for the Yub-Yub contribution!) [5]
Endgame 3/30/03 (#2.19) Marshall was trying to
make a joke. He asks Will to trust him because it was not like he was holding
on to Death Star plans or anything. [6] Endgame

spelunking on the CIA network - mapping it, really - just for kicks, and well,
you can relax because the Death Star plans are not in the main computer!"

In The World (#5.17) 5/22/06 Marshall and Rachel have been kidnapped

Empire Strikes Back cool."

Short Round pulls off his
end of the bargain, we'll both become gods. ANDREW: (turns
to look down hall where Jonathan went) (doing an impression) "That boy is

I admit I went over to the dark side, but just to pick up a few things,
a-and now I'm back. I've learned. I'm good again. BUFFY: And when were

this witness as hostile. Mr. Lucas, how do you explain that in Star Wars
Obi-Wan tells Luke when he met his father he was a great pilot, but in Menace
he's just a little boy?' Lucas: 'Well, my kids
thought...' Randal: 'And how come Obi-Wan tells Luke that Yoda is
the Jedi that trains him, but in the movie Liam Neeson trains
him?' Lucas: 'Um, well, the power of myth...' Randal:
'Isn't it true you knew this was a bad movie, that you wrote it over a weekend
but told people you had it written for years?' Lawyer: 'Objection!

Randall: You see the thing I don’t get about Princess Leia is her
sovereignty. If you were her, wouldn’t you be glad when Grand Moff Tarkin
blew up Alderaan? I mean you would be queen at that point. Dante: Her mom was
dead before they blew up Alderaan, so wouldn’t she be queen already?
Randall: Ah the whole movie is flawed. Like that lightsaber stuff: You turn it
on and goes yeah high, how does it know when to stop? Dante: um, the Force?
Randall: Ah that’s your answer to everything. [10]
