This has got to be the coolest office furniture ever. It’s Han Solo frozen in carbonite for goodness sake. How cool is that? This comes to us thanks to the very talented prop designer Tom Spina. I think I’m gonna go ahead and order one of these and maybe also install a sliding bench/bed that opens to reveal my underground Rancor chamber.
Captain’s log star-date May 8th 2009, the new Star Trek movie will be released to the masses……but wait a sec wasn’t it supposed to come out Dec. 25th 2008? Yea that’s right Trekkie’s you’ll have to wait for J.J. Abrams to ruin your beloved Star Trek. I’m sure it has something to do with the writers strike being over and he needs more time to change the script.
Oh yea by the way THE WRITERS STRIKE IS OVER!!! We haven’t said anything about that yet but it’s over. The damage has been done though and we’ll have to wait for some of our favorite shows to come back next season.
I’m getting off track though. Back to Star Trek and J.J. Abrams. Although I give him credit for started a great show in Lost I still think his movie Cloverfield was a waste of time and money. He seems to have great ideas to start but can never seem to figure out how to finish anything. He left Lost unfinished and the show suffered, so much so that like myself people left and haven’t come back. Cloverfield was a great idea and could have been great but it was an unfinished movie that really gave us nothing in the end.
Anyone wanna defend J.J.? I’ll listen to ya so bring it on.
Thanks Variety
When was the last time something totally captured your heart and your beer gut at one time. As short lived as Porkins life in Star Wars was, he is still a true classic. With his trusty AstroKeg droid by his side he gallantly fought the Empire giving his life for the cause.
This is a fitting tribute to the great Porkins, don’t you think. I am a sucker for Legos and Star Wars so if they are combined its even better. This little beauty was done by Mike Crowley aka Count Blockula. He’s been doing this little models for years and they are pretty cool check them all out here at CountBlockula.com.
It could be. This is one of the newest editions to the official Star Wars store. It’s the adorable ‘Mighty Muggs’ renditions of some of the franchise’s favorite characters. Despite the name, it’s not actually a mug. Along with Darth Vader they’ve also got a Darth Maul, Chewbacca, Han Solo, and Storm Trooper. Each one is only $12.99. I’m thinking it could be a great gift for the Star Wars fan that already has everything else. Kinda reminds me of a Lego man with those hands.
Toy!
