Star Wars Special @ MTV TRL • May 3 2005

[COS_Vader]

Although I really hate MTV, this might be worth watching. They filmed the MTV Star Wars party last week at the Ranch during the media screening. A guided tour of the ranch is planned.

The only reason I found out about it was because the C3 X-Wing we helped restore was sent there to be set up at the Ewok pond on the way to the main house.

Bah gawd... of all the "bands"...

[BrotherTheFirst]

this is sure to be gay.

the ranch portion might be interesting.

[POTA]

They should've used Robert Plant since he's coming out with a new album and all. Everyone who breathes knows who he is, plus he's a big fan of fantasy and most likely Star Wars.

and all all the mtv trl kids who like nsync or the such will surely dig him joking aside he is a great guy, he lives up the road from me and used to buy dvds from me!

[Chilly]

good charlotte?

more like mediocre greenday


(where did i hear that now ? )

[timbo]

a walk-through of Skywalker Ranch as an episode of Cribs would be cool, I think.

[TiniTinyTony]

I saw that. I m surprised Lucas wasn't next to them drinking a capri sun.

That's ridiculous. Everyone knows that Lucas drinks Sunny D.

[Sen-Set]

We got some OJ, purple stuff, soda...
HEY! Sunny D!
Yeah!

[timbo]

when the fucks is this shit on i have direct tv and i saw the channel guid and it says nothing about this thing coming on.

From the second paragraph in the above link from the first post......

"TRL's Star Wars special -- airing on May 13th at 5:00 p.m. (ET/PT) -- is hosted by MTV VJs Damien Fahey and La La Vasquez, and features a special performance by Good Charlotte, who are also passionate Star Wars fans."

[Bandersnatch]

mtv=gay

[Bandersnatch]

Finish picking your fucking teeth already...

[timbo]

whoops its a TRL special haha well fuck me side ways haha! im an idiot

glad I could help you out.

[Bandersnatch]

Indeed. He/She might be fun...

[Bandersnatch]

I don't know. I shall ask... Redialnumber, breasts have you?

[timbo]

I was thinking the same thing, harpua.

Redial has no idea what/who she's dealing with.

[Sith 77]

Well, if MTV fucks this up like they did the Xbox "unveiling" last night, this won't be worth wiping your ass with. I was fucking embarrassed to work for the damn company after that stupid thing aired. I hate the MTV video editing style...."hey, we can't linger on that shot for more than 2 seconds, someone might get bored because they watched too much fucking Pokemon and ate too much ritalin"....It hurts my head to watch all those quick cuts.

By the way Tony, I'm old school punk, been in several hardcore bands myself, and I think Sum 41 is actually halfway decent as well. They really showed a lot of maturity on the "Chuck" album. I think Green Day has grown up very well too. The structure of "American Idiot" as a whole album is great. It's not often I buy an album and love the entire thing.

Anyway, since the name "Star Wars" is attached to this, I suppose I'll force myself to watch this shitty channel one more time....

[Sith 77]

to bad the radio is running all of the singles from American Idiot into the ground. I liked them the first few times I heard them but after 1547825643904598 times I start to not like it.

Yeah, also, I've noticed they've licensed every song but the two 9 minute epics to every fucking movie and video game in the universe. But hey, they put their time in, let 'em earn some money.

If the radio is going to run any songs into the ground, I would rather hear that than some crappy Nu Metal or Brittany Spears. Fortunately I don't listen to the radio anyway.

[Sith 77]

The worst performance was by that twat Avril Lavigne

Oh jesus, I would've worn a paper bag on my head if I was in her backing band. She looked as excited to be on that stage as a hooker fucking her 100th John for the day.

Sum 41's medley was REALLY well done. I wish they would release a Metallica cover album and do mostly old-school (Justice and before).

I'd fuck her though.

Definitely

[Sith 77]

System's new album rocks, it hasn't left my CD player since I downloaded it. I'm REALLY hoping Tool finally puts their new album out this year . Weezer's new album is good too.

[Sith 77]

Yeah, I just hope Tool's new one is as thoughtful and deep as "Ænima" was. Man they really dug into some deep emotional tissue on that album, especially "Pushit","I cried when they played "H" and "Third Eye" on the Lateralus tour (got to see 'em three times, )

I saw System at a little club in Spartanburg, SC when they were supporting their first album. They really rocked. I was front and center the whole time and I got to meet them after the show. At the time I was playing drums in my current band and I talked to the drummer for over 15 minutes about all sorts of drum shit. They were really cool guys, most bands are, if you're not starstruck when you talk to them.

EDIT: and just think, that guy from Sum 41 is hitting that shit all night long....

[Sith 77]

She also has no piercings or tattoos....like every punk rocker I know has at least a couple of each...

[MStrike]

TOOL!!!!
Where?
When?
How?!?!?!?!?
When?!

[MStrike]

Tool...For me the best band ever. I had greatest time in my life listening to their music.

TOOL = Orgasm

[HateWork]

i think i can rightly proclaim myself to be the biggest metalhead here. actually just picked up a couple sweet cds today in the used bin (the latest darkthrone, anorexia nervosa, nightrage).

i'm sure someone will have any decent footage up tonight, but if there is anything decent, i'm sure it will be stuff we've already seen.

[Indiana]

This is painful to watch.

[Alkemist]

Is anyone planning on capturing the kashyyk footage.

[Indiana]

A bunch of dorks trying to pretend they know anything about Star Wars. There might be some good footage later.

[timbo]

Is anyone planning on capturing the kashyyk footage.

I'm sure by the monday after the official debut there will be a cam version on bitTorrent. you could grab the whole thing and slice and dice it to your hearts content.

[TigerClaw]

Hope you guys are watching, Cause soon they will show an exclusive clip, I think its from the battle of kashyyk.

[Alkemist]

It's times like these i wish i had an S-video cable.

Ill make a shitty cam pot of the footage myself, and see if i can upload it.

[Sith 77]

I'm sure that none of the turds in this whole fiasco deserved to be at Skywalker ranch for this. La La, or whoever the fuck the bitch in the baby doll dress was probably doesn't even know the name of the droid she was standing beside (hence why she didn't actually say his name).

God I hate MTV.

[Alkemist]

The people there are such tards. Do you see them flailing around like fucking retards....haha.

[timbo]

They can't be more than $15 at best buy or radio shack, wal-mart might even have them.

[Indiana]

Watching Chewbacca and Vader head banging to Good Charlotte made me cringe

Yeah, what the hell was Vader doing?

[Sith 77]

I should get a free fucking ticket to this movie for being forced to watch this shit. I wish A&E or some other channel had the viewership of MTV so Lucas could put this type of stuff on a channel that would care and not make it into a teenie bopper exploitation fiasco.

May 25th you stupid whore, who the FUCK does not know that????

[Crashwithuhk]

Good thing even though its a music countdown show they only play like 20 seconds of the actual music, especially since its bad music. Did i just hear a tarzan roar?

[TiniTinyTony]

Hooooooooly Shit. That Kashyyyk sequence rocked so hard!

[Indiana]

Pretty much the stuff we've seen from the trailer and the Celebration III video.

[Sith 77]

You know, the sad thing is, back in the day (i.e. 1980 or 1983) there was no need to hype a Star Wars movie on some shitty "Music" TV channel (I use the term "music" lightly). The movie itself was hype enough.

I remember from 1980 to 1983 all anyone on the playground at school could talk about was if Vader was really Luke's father.

Now all we get is, let's find out which shitty celebrities like Star Wars so we can all be cool too. These superfriends from TRL (the cast) have no clue and have to read fucking cue cards to make any meaningful statements. What happened to just going behind the scenes and conducting interviews with people who are ACTUALLY in the movie.

Oh, I know, because Ewan McGregor would tell them to piss off.

Oh yeah, the exclusive clip was fucking awesome.

[Crashwithuhk]

I wasn't paying attention to the show just now but I believe I just heard the female host talk about an exclusive clip as if they were going to play another one.

[Sith 77]

And by the way, does anyone here actually give a fuck what Peter fucking Galagher thinks about Star Wars?

I would be interested if they had some of George Lucas' friends on here, like Speilberg or Coppola, I would love to hear their opinion. What about the actors from the old films? Why is Elijah Wood on here, why is the cast from "That 70's Show" on here?

[CoGro]

Thank god we don't get MTV in Canada.

[Bandersnatch]

TARZAN YELL

FUCK YEAH!!!!!!!!

[Crashwithuhk]

That 2nd Death Star model looked awesome. But as if it wasn't great enough now we get to find out which crappy TRL star those asses would want to see in Star Wars.

[Sith 77]

Man, George looked awfully nervous about those guys being in the archives. Once again though, MTV's quick cut editing style didn't let us linger on anyone image for more than half a second. You couldn't see any detail in any of the props. My jaw dropped when the showed a CU of the Death Star II, and then it immediately cut away.

What a cocktease! I wanted to see all that little detail in the unfinished segments.

I have to say I love SLJ's insights into how things came to be for Mace Windu. It was interesting hearing that little tidbit about the lightsaber color. I knew most of it, but he put a more personal spin on it that made it refreshing.

[Chilly]

someone record and upload

[Crashwithuhk]

wow....

Britney Spears as Padme
Dr. Dre as Yoda
Eminem as Obi-Wan
50 cent as Anakin and
Outcast as R2 and 3PO

and then the host has the nerve to say "Sounds like a decent idea eh?"

I hate MTV.

Edit: oh my god, chewie on drums. Kill me now.

[Sith 77]

You know, the only reason I'm not committing suicide after being forced to watch that is because I still haven't seen the damn movie. Otherwise I would drink a gallon of Clorox so I could cleanse away the horror.


Those people have NO fucking clue. Britney Spears??????????

God this show is so GAY....no offense to any of our homosexual posters on the forum...

[Indiana]

Chewbacca is a pretty good drummer.
