So the folks over at “AT-AT for America” have a plan to build a 70ft tall real life working version of the beloved impiral walkers. Their reasoning for doing it it’s just geekdom, it’s to prove the greatest of america. They have an open letter to President Obama, a pay-pal donation site and eventually a Kickstarter campaign. As ludicrous as this sounds, the 6 year old boy in me who watched Empire Strikes Back at the drive-in and couldn’t wait to go home and play with his Han Solo figure in the snow, really wants this to become a reality.
OK, so I have to respond to Jim’s last post about sexy CGI because I found a Star Wars message board with a bunch of sexy CGI Star Wars “babes.” I feel a special connection with Star Wars, because my name is Luke, and because I love red and green girls in bikinis. May the force be with you!
Also, here is a link to the website of the guy who makes all of this “art.”
