btw...I'm not the only one that pauses the frame in Jedi, when that A-wing is blowing through the command deck of D-Vader's super star destroyer, just to see the flaming frame of the Buick that was tossed through the glass plate to create the effect, am I?

Maybe it should have been a popcorn machine. He will release the whole series with the right one in it now.

Banned at my workplace, too. :'(

bbzzdd has a funny history at my workplace. When I started, it wasn't blacklisted. Not long after, it was for a while. Then they did proxy upgrades, and it wasn't for a while. Then magically it was again... for like two days. Since then, it hasn't been blacklisted and I've been able to enjoy its goodness.

Your place of employment, which also happens to be where you live, was just destroyed in an intergalactic civil war. You're gonna need some comfort food to get through that shit.

If you freeze frame the next scene, you can see people making off with boxes of girl scout cookies and cheesecake.

Suddenly the flying Buick from the Rogue Squadron series makes a lot more sense than it was ever intended to.

looool that is funny. Is that actual footage from the actual movie? Or is that just a place that looks star wars ish? I have not watched the movies in a long time so I don't really remember that scene.

Actual footage. Go to the scene where Lando warns the city of the Imperial invasion.

How does that guy even have a name?

from the wiki..

Willrow Hood was a Human male miner who lived and worked on Cloud City, a floating station located above the gas giant Bespin. He worked for A'roFilter, a mining company sympathetic to the Alliance to Restore the Republic, as the head of the department responsible for dealing with the Rebel Alliance, supplying discounted Tibanna gas. Eventually, though, the Galactic Empire invaded and conquered the planet; in order to protect the Rebellion contacts Hood was responsible for, the miner took A'roFilter's main computer's memory core, as it contained the encrypted information on Rebel contacts. After finding the nearest disposal unit, Hood dumped the entire core, rather than risk it falling into the wrong hands; thus, Willrow Hood was able to save the Alliance's interests. Hood remained on Cloud City throughout the Imperial occupation, suffering imprisonment and torture but revealing nothing.
Darn that was not a ice cream maker, that was a computer memory core (made to look like a ice cream maker to fool the Empire). ;)
