If Lucas has paid someone ten thousand bucks to write / edit the dialogue he’d have another billion dollars now.

Oh, yeah. For example, there were these gems:

"It's the ship that made the Kessel run in less than twelve parsecs." What? It's three blocks to the store, but I made it in only one. Right.

"I'm haunted by the kiss you should never have given me." Ker-plunk!

"I don't care what universe you're from, that's got to hurt!" Yes, it does.

“Now that I’m with you again, I’m in agony. My heart is beating, hoping that that kiss will not become a scar.” My head is aching, hoping that clunker will not become a memory.

And my personal favorite, because I'm saving it for when 0bama finally gets frog-marched to a waiting paddy wagon, “At an end your rule is, and not short enough was it."

To be fair the Kessel run takes you by the Grand Maw,, which is littered with black holes so anytime you can cut that distance is an achievement. I agree with the pukey unemotional love scenes between Anakin and Padme.

parsecs are units of distance, not time. but many have noted this a lng time ago as a mistake.
