I'm so sad. Star Wars was my childhood. Well, that and half dozen or so divorces.

I loved the first movie, he stole from Tora tora tora and rashomon, and it just went into the toliet.

Don't cry over spilled tea.

Kind of, but not really. The Trade Federation had their assets seized by the Emperor and used to repair the Galaxy after the end of the Clone Wars. It was owned by the Neimoidians, but the New Order doesn't approve of such scaly looking aliens running things, I'm guessing they were out on their ass.

So long as you are not going into depression or an existential crisis, thinking of such things is somewhat healthy, so long as one accepts some of your own musings as what it is--musings. Then, one can carry on with life.

Why not just hire Thai VAs? Its not like George Lucas doesn't have the cash.

Because that would have sparked negative reactions, and besides, Thai-English VAs would have legitimately good English--or at least considerably better than a regular Thai English speaker... YMMV for that. But I think it was Lucas' ethical choices that prevented him.

Not to mention while he does have the money, thriftiness in the movie industry is a virtue?

I dunno.

My school doesn't offer them.

And I rarely enjoy hugs. Even from my closest, oldest, best friends. I like a certain amount of distance and personal space, physically and otherwise. I'm also not sure if you remember, but we didn't get along well when you were here.

That sucks, is there an equivalent?

I had friends that treated me like dirt for so long I thought it was normal, I'd rather get awkwardly close for a moment then to be too distant and not be a good friend.

Anyway, gotta go, goodnight TET

Not really. I'm in an advanced math class, but that's it.

And I'm sorry to hear that. I'm more than willing to start fresh, but that means starting before friendship. From the top.

Good night.
