I was dissapointed by the arm getting chopped off. In the novel the guy gets split in half, from head to toe.
Buffista Movies 4: Straight to Video
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
Did anybody else read "Splinter of the Mind's Eye?"
Alan Dean Foster. I probably still have the copy around somewhere. I enjoyed that book quite a lot. Lucasfilm hadn't yet become so adept at feeding the fan hunger, so I was so pleased to find it at the time.
Alan Dean Foster? Seriously? That man has made a living off adaptations.
I saw Star Wars as a reward for teaching a summer school ESL class for one of my advisors in high school. 3 months of work seemed like an ample trade off.
At the risk of ubercheese, it literally changed my life.
Alan Dean Foster was the ghostwriter of the original Star Wars novelization.
Oh, he also did the books of the Star Trek animated series. I knew I had read something by him besides the Star Wars novel....
And the ALIEN novelization. It was definitely a gig for him.
Slave Leia costume
For your dog.
omg. I would SO get that if it weren't for the fact that Bartleby acts like I'm killing him (much civil disobedience ensues) when I try to put his polar fleece on when the temp is below 20. Also? He's had enough gender issues since...ya know...snip.
