Whoop Whoop! What's the haps my peoples? I am in quite the good mood. As you know I fly out Monday to see Anne and that's pretty much making this week fly by. Let me just remind all of you how incredible Anne is. She is the funniest girl I have ever known, as well as the most mind-blowingly self assured and grounded individual. She's got character and class, kindness and charm and man can she cook! She kicks my ass into gear and has already profoundly affected my wardrobe. She is a true friend. She is all potential and no bullshit. She loves me, I love her. She is awesome. Yes, even better than STAR WARS.
Now I have to rant about the second love of my life...STAR WARS.
Ok. This just hit me like a ton of bricks yesterday. I hope it comes as no SPOILER to any of you that Obi-Wan takes the baby Luke and Leia away to safety after their birth. Leia goes to Alderon to live with Jimmi Smits and Luke goes back to Tatoine to live with his step uncle. Now, Leia assumed the last name of her adoptive papa and became an Organa, however Luke did not become a Lars as logic might dictate, no he still went by Skywalker! WTF?? Are they trying to advertise to the Empire just where to find the son of Anakin Skywalker? Are we to assume perhaps that the name Skywalker is much like Smith or Jones in our galaxy? Did Obi-Wan really allow the child to keep such an unfortunate last name? Skywalker=Jedi holocaust!! I'm just confused. I suppose I can justify it in fanboy logic because if Anakin is assumed dead then....No wait that's not even right cause Obi knows Anakin is Vader, at least by New Hope time. No, It's the first of several gaping holes in continuity that Lucas is forcing us to deal with! Man, Star Trek has had the market cornered on all the crap continuity problems, now there is even less difference between the franchises. Boo.
