Topic: I would (still) buy several of these products.

Knowing how much of a merch-whore George can be, I'm surprised we never saw some of these actually produced.

I would buy some of those. Han Solo in carbonite popsicle mold. That's such a cool idea. I wouldn't mind having a game trophy version of Jar Jar. Of course, then I'd have to look at his stupid face all the time.

Speaking of star wars, have you guys ever heard of the "Machete Order" for watching the starwars saga?

Basically, you remove Episode 1 and watching them in this order: IV, V, II, III, VI
The guy gives a pretty good argument for watching them this way, and I'll probably try it the next time I feel like watching through all of star wars.

I hadn't. And it's pretty damn brilliant.

Warning: I'm probably rewriting this post as you read it.

Looks like Mr. Machete arrived at the same conclusion we did in our commentary of Episode One:  nothing in that movie mattered.     

I especially like his suggestion of treating Episode One as an optional "here's some additional material they made for little kids" special feature.

I like the Death Star Basketball idea. That would be a lot of fun smile
Actually, there is a lightsaber flashlight out there so at least that made it through:

The Machete Order seems brilliant. Everything sounds like it works much better than the actual Episode order. Although I'm not an Episode I hater, I think I'll try it.
