Shada's Thoughts

A Cautious Fellow

Lady Shada — May 08, 2008 12:25 PM

Long before I knew anything substantial about Star Wars and before the Disney collecting days that were prompted by the release of The Lion King, I was introduced to Indiana Jones...

Shadows of the Sith

Lady Shada — May 01, 2008 09:54 AM

Of long absences, geeky moments, real life, new costumes and the lure of the Dark side.

To Geek or Not To Geek

Lady Shada — Mar 12, 2008 10:36 AM

When a geek is happy about a certain geeky something, that geek must turn to those to will understand the geeky happiness and at least be happy for said geek even if they don't understand what the geek is geeking out over...

"Begun, this Clone War has..."

Nothing makes you feel more like a half-hearted fan when you don't know an important bit of information before someone else in the "real" world knows it...

The Joy and the Sorrow

Lady Shada — May 17, 2007 10:46 AM

From a world of craziness (Celebration IV hype) to...well...another world of craziness (Star Wars music videos).

Celebration IV Freak-Outs

Lady Shada — May 14, 2007 03:00 PM

As we get down to the wire, I see more and more people freaking out on the Star Wars messageboards about schedules and when's thises and what ifs. For some reason, I'm not freaking out. I'm not. Why? Well, I'm not sure, and that sorta scares me.

Delusions of Grandeur ~ Revenge of the Geek

Lady Shada — May 09, 2007 06:56 PM

I don't quite know what made me come up with the idea back in 2002, just a week or so before Attack of the Clones made its way to theaters. And I really don't know what made me keep the idea thriving until this day...

"Vote Now! Vote Now!"

Lady Shada — Apr 24, 2007 12:30 PM

Hear the Senate clammoring to "vote now?"

Obi-Wan Kenobi: An Elegant Weapon for a More Civilized Age

Lady Shada — Mar 21, 2007 06:51 AM

For once, I am not looking at the character as a piece of gorgeous man-flesh played by the always lovely Ewan Mc-I'm-Too-Sexy-For-My-Kilt-Gregor. This time I saw the character for who he was, and I have Matthew Stover and a 4 1/2 hr. travel time to thank.

A Wretched Hive of Scum and Villainy

Lady Shada — Nov 02, 2006 01:54 PM

The ultimate geek-fest! The pinnacle of nerdiness! The apex of dorkdom! Yes, friends and fellow Jedi (and Sith), I will be attending Star Wars: Celebration IV in Los Angeles, California.

Revenge of the Pumpkin

Lady Shada — Oct 31, 2006 06:52 AM

I am a geek. I will admit I am a geek, and every year, I look for a chance to put my inner geekiness on display...

Thoughts of a Binary Sunset

Lady Shada — Sep 26, 2006 07:49 PM

What happens, though, when in one moment, that space drama that seemed like the biggest piece of fiction on earth reflects your reality?

Whistler's Mother

Lady Shada — Sep 01, 2006 10:25 AM

I bet you're wondering how a famous piece of art relates to Star Wars? Stick with me...I'll explain.

Hollywood Reality Bytes

Lady Shada — Mar 10, 2006 09:48 AM

There are times when movies feel so close that you can almost stretch your arm out, fall into a screen, and instantly become a character...

Indiana Jones and the Not So Last Crusade

Lady Shada — Feb 13, 2006 09:26 AM

Calling all Star Wars and Indiana Jones fans...I knew I just had to share. But this little tidbit of an article--for some reason--just scared me more about this new "last crusade" than it did thrill me. The reasons for my fear? Well, they're twofold.

To Catalog or Not To Catalog

Lady Shada — Jan 03, 2006 09:41 AM

A close friend of mine (and fellow Star Wars collector) has started off (again) on a project of gigantic proportions...

Alternative Versions of Revenge of the Sith?

Lady Shada — Jun 24, 2005 08:30 AM

I'm one of those people who has strange dreams. Last night was no exception...

My Mother - The Darth Vader Fan

Lady Shada — Jun 20, 2005 02:27 PM

My mother professes to me that she goes to movies in order to relax....She doesn't get involved in the story. She just finds them entertaining....I say it's otherwise.

Is Stealing of the Dark Side?

Lady Shada — Jun 19, 2005 10:13 AM

'Star Wars' Toy Thieves Stripping Restaurants According to my newspaper, Star Wars fans are stealing from local Burger King restaurants. What is going on here?

Dr. Indiana Solo Strikes Back

Lady Shada — Jun 02, 2005 09:25 PM

"George Lucas and Steven Spielberg have reportedly approved the script for the long-awaited Indiana Jones sequel." Can it be? Is it true?
