The Quote of the Day from ago!

William Hootkins (+4)
"A lot of actors dream of being involved with a film at the end of their career that inspires people, and makes a lot of people happy. I got to start my career with a film like that."

Samuel L. Jackson (+4)
"I went to the first screening of Star Wars on 44th Street and Times Square in New York City and I was totally blown away. I was on drugs too. [He laughs, having talked openly before about his former chemical dependency in the days before he became a well known actor.] I was pretty herbed out and the screen started going&hellip; [he makes a wavy gesture with his hands] 'Oh, yes! This was going to be great!' I've seen it eight or nine times since. In fact I'm trying to find George Lucas now so I can be in his prequel."

- Samuel L. Jackson, interviewed in Star Wars Insider 32, January 1997

The Star Wars Holiday Special (+3)
"Time has not been kind to The Holiday Special, yet that's precisely its charm. Unlike the Star Wars films, which have a timeless quality, The Star Wars Holiday Special will forever be stuck in 1978, which is great nostalgia if you were there, great history if you weren't."

Cham's fire (+6)
"Cham stared at the screen as if he could pull his comrades through hyperspace by sheer force of will. Assuming they'd even been able to jump. The whole operation had been a huge risk, but Cham had thought it worthwhile to secure more heavy weapons and force the Empire to divert some resources away from Ryloth. Too, he'd wanted to make a stronger statement, send an unmistakable message that at least some of the Twi'leks of Ryloth would not quietly accept Imperial rule. He'd wanted to be the spark that started a fire across the galaxy."

Lords of the Sith SPOILER (+5)
"Behind him, towering and dark, Vader ignited his lightsaber. Isval heard her death in the sizzle of its blade. The tears in her eyes dried, replaced by defiance, by anger, by hope kindled in the knowledge that Cham, at least, had escaped, that the fire of rebellion had not gone out because he carried it."

The ultimate team (+3)
"Whether Obi-Wan's legendary cleverness might beat Anakin's raw power, straight up, no rules, is the subject of schoolyard fistfights, creche-pool wriggle-matches, and pod-chamber stinkwars across the Republic. These struggles always end, somehow, with the combatants on both sides admitting that it doesn't matter. Anakin and Obi-Wan would never fight each other. They couldn't. They're a team. They're the team. And both of them are sure they always will be."
