PART 2



Ron Automatic:  "villains is relative. While most Stormtroopers were missing their targets no matter how many lasers they fired, or how many planets weren't blown up by the Death Star, or how much rebel scum was able to easily evade invading forces on Hoth, Boba Fett had one task and he. got. shit. done. He tracked Solo for the Empire and then got his scruffy ass to Jabba. That takes care of that. Most antagonists in Star Wars are always botching simple tasks like looking for some droids, inspecting ships, or pulling out of hyperdrive at the adequate time. Not our guy." -- neuroticmonkey

J-Rod: yes
J-Rod: didnt he get shot
J-Rod: by a blind solo?
J-Rod: and fell into the pitt?
J-Rod: and if i remember correctly
J-Rod: he only got solo cause lando flipped
J-Rod: and set him up
Ron Automatic: solo cant see. inadvertently hits him the back with a staff, while turing
J-Rod: yes that
J-Rod: and that setup was ALL vader
J-Rod: so what did boba really do?
Ron Automatic: his "jetpack with cape" <SMH> goes off he hits the barge falls in the pit
J-Rod: he was a delivery boy
Ron Automatic: in Jedi, he failed.
Ron Automatic: LOL
J-Rod: LOL
J-Rod: at least jango threw down with obi-won
J-Rod: and mace
Ron Automatic: hold on, don't act like when the 3 <movies> came out in the 70s-80s you didn't want to be Boba
Ron Automatic: he didn't throw down with mace, mace cut his head off. his son saw it, Kill Bill style
J-Rod: yes but he killed quite a few jedi
J-Rod: before that moment
J-Rod: boba was in a christmas special
J-Rod: smh
J-Rod: boba = darth maul
J-Rod: had all the gear, the look, but no game
Ron Automatic: he did, and boba killed plenty of rebel scum.  and did it with flare. remember, "no disintegrations this time"
Ron Automatic: he disintegrated people!
J-Rod: off screen?
J-Rod: KAMAN
Ron Automatic: LOL
J-Rod: LOL
Ron Automatic: would you be able to stomach seeing someone disintegrated as a 7 yr old?
J-Rod: and those he disintegrated
J-Rod: no jedis
J-Rod: LOL
Ron Automatic: we don't know that
J-Rod: of course
Ron Automatic: it was off screen
J-Rod: there werent any left
J-Rod: by the time he grew up
Ron Automatic: cuz he disintegrated them all
J-Rod: they purged them
J-Rod: anakin took care of the future younglins
Ron Automatic: he took out the ones in the temple. not all of them. its not like he went to a comic-con for Jedis and THEN took them all out
J-Rod: LOL
Ron Automatic: he took out some
J-Rod: and the rest were taken out by the star troopers
J-Rod: all of the sudden the jedi became inept
J-Rod: couldnt defend themselves against clones
J-Rod: yet one lone jedi
J-Rod: and a group of rebels
J-Rod: can defeat them
J-Rod: entire jedi order.... NO
Ron Automatic: hello, the force was STRONG with him

The Death Star Outsourced Pt 1

Most shows rehearse what they'll talk about pre-show.  Have a format.  We... Don't.

Here's a morning IM convo between us from a about month ago.  (we back and forth fast so forgive the pacing).  It spanned about 25 mins and it's pure nerdom. 

Often times the sports Fan and the Geek battle.  On the frozen gridirons of Hoth <see what we did there?> Sometimes the Fan wins.  Sometimes the Geek does.  Clearly with this convo the Geek won...


PART 1


J-Rod: “I consider myself in that class (of great quarterbacks),” Manning told WEPN-AM radio. “Tom Brady is a great quarterback. He’s gotten better every year. He started off winning championships and I think he’s a better quarterback now than what he was, in all honesty, when he was winning those championships.
Ron Automatic: this was Eli?
J-Rod: yes
Ron Automatic: i agree
J-Rod: LOL
Ron Automatic: how come Boba Fett's cape never caught on fire from his jetpack?
J-Rod: fire resistant
Ron Automatic: why does he wear a cape? he has a jet pack!

J-Rod: why does vader?
Ron Automatic: vader wears it as a sign of elite status
Ron Automatic: like a king would
J-Rod: dooku?
J-Rod: lando?
J-Rod: LOL
Ron Automatic: BF is bounty hunter, no fucntionaly purpose
Ron Automatic: again, the time period
Ron Automatic: jedis, imperial gaurd, landos
J-Rod: he worked for jaba
J-Rod: required dress code
Ron Automatic: that chick thrown down the pit <jabbas palace> wore next to nothing, she had a dress code?
J-Rod: she was a slave whore
Ron Automatic: <see Leia>
Ron Automatic: true
J-Rod: LOL
Ron Automatic: it appears Boba also had WiFi attached to his helmet
Ron Automatic: or BT
J-Rod: their tech was much advanced
J-Rod: had cylon gear
Ron Automatic: hmm, he does seem very cylon like
J-Rod: so say we all
Ron Automatic: LOL
Ron Automatic: BF also had many "battle scars" on his armor
Ron Automatic: i was thinking it was blaster-proof armor
J-Rod: think that was jango's gear
J-Rod: he just changed the colors
J-Rod: jango's gear was fresh
J-Rod: new
Ron Automatic: yet vadar couldn't get that guy to use that <same> alloy for his stromtroppers, who take one shot and die?
J-Rod: LOL
J-Rod: well
J-Rod: if u look at the first 3 eps
Ron Automatic: the troopers are based off Jango
J-Rod: the star troopers were good fighters
J-Rod: and didnt just get killed
Ron Automatic: "use my likeness but don't use my tech"?
J-Rod: somewhere between ep 3 and 4
J-Rod: the batch changed
J-Rod: LOL
Ron Automatic: ah, i see, the emperor outsourced his factory to another country, cheap labor
Ron Automatic: lower quality
Ron Automatic: makes sense
Ron Automatic: he had to build a whole new death star, needed some xtra capital
Ron Automatic: cut cost
