Maybe Lucas is trying to impress Linda Ronstadt again.
Oh, dang, too much. That's so funny it's sad.
Hey you want to know what's really sad, go check out the Star Wars III trailers released a few days ago. When some brave LucasArts employee mustered the courage to tell Georgie the characters in the prequels are as 3 dimensional as a CGI model on a computer monitor, Georgie there didn't take the news in the intended manner. Instead of overwrought dialogue too painful for most modestly intelligent 10 year olds to stand, he gave Chewbacca and wookies the most dialogue in the new movie.
Arghhhnn.
