George Lucas trapped in carbonite

July 30th 2008 23:10

Han Solo was encased in carbonite by Darth Vader, then given to the bounty hunter Boba Fett to sell to Jabba the Hutt.

If you've never seen the Star Wars series, that sounded like utter nonsense, didn't it?

Well, if you're one of the scattered few that hasn't seen "The Empire Strikes Back" and "Return of the Jedi", then this short clip summarizes what we're talking about:

See? Frozen in carbonite!

Some Japanese Star Wars fans decided to make their own replica prop and created George Lucas trapped in carbonite, complete with paunchy belly. The pictures were taken by Bonniegrrl and posted to Flickr.

Man, I wish that was really George Lucas trapped in carbonite. I'd buy it right away, like a human version of Jabba the Hutt, and hang it in my gambling den as my favourite ornament. That'd be a fitting punishment for Episodes 1-3.

I'd be careful, too. You know Steven Spielberg would try to break into my palace and release Lucas, removing his mask to say 'someone who loves you'.

Now all we need is a replica of Lucas in being dragged into the belly of the almighty Sarlacc. Mwa ha ha!

I suppose we can grant Lucas some leeway though... he hasn't resorted to making a Star Wars/Rush Hour mashup. Or has he?

Those crazy fanboys! What whacky fun

Imagine having all the free time it would require to actually create something like that.

This post is nearly the most popular on CinemaMad. Just needs a couple more votes!

did you watch the Star Wars/Rush Hour mashup? Some parts of it are perfectly matched!

Hey, CinemaMad is looking good!

I can't really use CinemaMad... that bug still prevents me from voting..

I have a lifesize HIC in kit form, yet to be built. I hope the guys who made the GIC would offer a kit sometime in the future so I an hang them side by side.

What a blast that'd be! WAH HA HA HA HA HA!

SWG, a kit, eh? That'd definitely be a conversation starter when you have dinner guests!

A true conversation piece would be this:
