Star Wars Supplies
Mission statement
The premise of this blog is to showcase the many new innovations, inventions, artefacts and ideas that are inspired by the pop-culture phenomenon known as "Star Wars." It is amazing how many Star Wars-inspired things constantly pop up, and it doesn't seem like people can get enough. From Star Wars tattoos to Storm Trooper helmets and Darth Vaders made out of Lego, fans always find new ways to show their adoration. I for one am determined to get to the bottom of why our culture is so persistently fascinated by these films and the mythology surrounding them. This blog will explore and document the ongoing cultural fascination of the pop phenomenon known as "Star Wars".

Star Wars XXX
(link)
There are many porn parodies of popular TV shows and films, and now Star Wars fans will be happy to hear that there is now a Star Wars XXX porn parody! I can't believe there wasn't already one, but this sounds amazing. The scene list is very interesting, and this will surely become an instant classic with the first scene starring Leia and Darth. Yeah, it's pretty wrong...but yet so right!
Millenium Falcon Guitar

This is a custom-made Millenium Falcon guitar. It's awesome, it's got a Millenium Falcon toy with working lights and sounds with an R2-D2 headstock. The chap who made it has made a great little video demonstrating the guitar he made. The Force is strong!
Jabba Cake

Some little kid called Henry got this impressive cake, presumably for his birthday. Deviantart user KatesKates made this Jabba the Hutt cake; great work!
Uncut Hope
(link)
I have not watched this yet, but it seems very exciting. This is a completely fan-made recreation of Star Wars: A New Hope. Each fan contributed a 15-second scene, and hopefully the result is a 2-hour masterpiece. The link here is to a post on Geekologie; one of my favourite blogs for geeky and cool subjects, but one of the tags is funny: "Luke, I am your zero-experience director". Enjoy!
Star Wars Pizza Party Photos

Robin Cook is a great fan of Star Wars, and she is also a photographer. Here, she has put together a mighty photo shoot featuring Star Wars characters enjoying a feast of pizza! Also check out the photos of Princess Leia. Robin has an amazing website with lots of more Star Wars fan photos; as she is a self-proclaimed 'fangirl', there is lots more geekiness to enjoy.

Chewie Chat
(link)
Chewbacca is not known for being a talkative Wookie, or whatever species he is. In fact, it is rumoured that the gnarling sounds that Chewbacca is famous for were produced by foley artists torturing a caged bear. However, we should not ignore the pivotal role of Chewie in the Star Wars movies as Han Solo's loyal sidekick. Now the internet has a fitting tribute to Chewie, as the cartoonist Doug Savage has produced a cartoon of all Chewbacca's dialogue from Star Wars. As you would expect, the dialogue is not in English or any known language, so the cartoon seems to be intended as some kind of joke, but to what end is not entirely clear.
