Star Wars; Obi Wan uses his Jedi mind trick to convince the stormtroopers that hey have the wrong droids.

In Ep IV, C3PO tells Luke that their last 'Master' was Capt or Commander somethingorother. It was also common practice for new owners to 'wipe clean' their droids memories - Uncle Ben (Luke's step-uncle) wanted Luke to take the droids into Anchorhead to clear their memeories. That's my take on why C3PO and R2 don't remember anything between Ep III and EP IV - a span of about 20ish years (a timespan I think Lucas is going to populate with the TV series).

Obi-Wan is just wiley and likes to play mind games with people. He either forgot or hid his remberance of C3PO/R2 from Luke. Remember this is a guy that told Luke that Darth Vader 'betrayed and murdered your father' when in actuallity Obi-Wan is right there, first-hand, when the whole thing goes down (Ep III). So when Obi-Wan told Luke it was 'true ... from a certain point of view', Luke was like 'WTF??? ... a certain point of view?' - I'm thinkin it was a good thing Obi-Wan was a ghost already because Luke looked like he wanted to kick his a$$ for explaining it to him that way in the first place.

Allthough Spaceballs has some great quotes, they are easily recognizeable from the Star Wars quotes.

"They must have hyper drives on that thing."
"And what do we have, a Cuisinart?"

"I see your schwartz is as big as mine."

"That was my virgin alarm. It's programed to go off before you do"

"What's the matter, Colonel Sandurz...Chicken?"

"Druish princesses are often attracted to money and power and I have both and you know it..."

"Say goodbye to your two best friends and I don't mean your pals in the Winnebago"

"Evil will always prevail, because good is dumb."

"It's Mega Maid, sir. She's gone from suck, to blow."

"Oh yes, Sir, Snotty beamed me twice last night... It was Wonderful."

Definitely agree with your assesment.

The Star wars saga just brings back the memories of skipping school to go watch the premier of the Empire strikes back. The days when you could watch a movie 10 times at the theater and it would not cost you an arm and a leg.

Many good memories with my friends watching the Star wars saga.............and now I get to share the experience with my 2 girls (9 and 10) who are both star wars fanatics.

I can't wait for this episode but I think deep down I will be a little sad to see the end of the adventure.

Think Bill Murray -

"Star Wars, nothing but Star Wars...."

Col. Sandurz: Prepare ship for light speed!
Dark Helmet: No, no, no, light speed is too slow!
Col. Sandurz: Light speed, too slow?!
Dark Helmet: Yes, we're gonna have to go right to . . . ludicrous speed!
Col. Sandurz: Ludicrous speed?! Sir, we've never gone that fast before. I don't know if the ship can take it.
Dark Helmet: What's the matter Colonel Sandurz? Chicken?

Princess Vespa: What are you?
Barf: I'm a Mawg: half-man, half-dog. I'm my own best friend.

Well, he doesn't really say that he "doesn't remember C3PO" he just says he doesn't remember "owning a droid." Two very different statements. [snort]

Yogurt the great.
Yogurt the Magnificent.
Yogurt the wise.

No, no, no..... Just plain Yogurt.


I hate Yogurt..... Even with Strawberries!


Dark Helmet: Who made that man a gunner?
Maj. A**hole: I did, sir. He's my cousin.
Dark Helmet: Who is he?
Col. Sandurz: He's an A**hole, sir.
Dark Helmet: I know that. What's his name?
Col. Sandurz: That is his name, sir. A**hole, Major A**hole.
Dark Helmet: And his cousin?
Col. Sandurz: He's an A**hole too, sir. Gunner's Mate, First Class, Philip A**hole.
Dark Helmet: How many A**holes we got on this ship, any how?
Everyone: Yo!
Dark Helmet: I knew it. I'm surrounded by A**holes. Keep firing, A**holes!

Ludicrous speed

What was that?
I think it was Spaceball 1....... They've gone to plaid.

"They've gone to plaid."

LOL...forgot about that one!

"We can't stop! It's too dangerous! We've got to slow down first."

"Smoke 'em if you got'em"

"Spaceballs, the flamethrower"

"That's funny. She doesn't look Druish."

"I am your father's brother's nephew's cousin's former roommate. "

So, what does that make us?

AB-SO-LUTE-LY nothing.

"I'm going to have to get an unlisted wall."

"Why didn't somebody tell me my a** was this big!"

Comb the desert... "We ain't found *****." (with a hair pick)

Dink dink, dink dink dink dink dink dink!

Raspberry... There's only one man in the galaxy that would dare give me the raspberry...... LONESTAR!!!

Do something! < over the intercom to the whole ship> DO SOMETHING!!


I bet she gives good helmet.

There's two sides to the Schwartz, he got the upside I got the down.

You idiots, you captured their stunt doubles.

I almost think we've exhausted all the Spaceballs quotes. So how's this?


Are all men from the future such loud mouthed braggerts such as you?
Nope, just me baby..... Just me.

bender?
