It's no secret that a lot of the fun in this blog comes from the comments. Regardless of whether I'm on or off, the commenters (or "commenteers") are always on. So during the past few weeks, on my main page, I've been spotlighting a Comment of the Week.

(Of course, this idea was shamelessly stolen from one of my favorite non-SW blogs, The Comics Curmudgeon.)

I figured it would be a shame to let this "honor" expire each week, so I'll be regularly updating this entry with all the previous Comments of the Week. Newer ones are towards the top.

As always, thanks for all your comments -- they keep me laughing throughout the day!

"...not if George has you shoot me first...several years later...following the development of computer effects that while incredible in scope render an otherwise perfectly good scene impotent of its initial shock as it pertains to nature of a smuggling in the Star Wars universe as well as the type of life Han and Chewie found themselves in despite the fact that both are good people/wookies, thus ruining a subtle comment on how the Empire has forced decent hardworking people into becoming criminals just to earn a living so they can survive the ugly results of a government corrupted by the Dark Side.

Have a great day!"
