The Millennium Falcon Bass
- Thread starter Vlad5
- Start date
There's a thing on IMGUR where anytime someone posts a picture of a scene from Star Wars, someone will comment "I love lord of the rings!" or "I love star trek!" in jest. And in turn, do the same kind of thing to any Star Trek or LOTR posts.
Seventeen huh? Alright, you guys got yourselves a bass.
Stage 94.
It looks like someone's beginning to take an interest in your basswork!
Wow. If I remember correctly, Han only asked for 10 thousand. Old Ben must have learned bargaining from the Native Americans.
Indeed. It's like he somehow knew that Alderaan would be destroyed before they got there rendering the contract null and void.
It was a conspiracy!
"tell ya what, I'll go 100,000 if the wookie wears a dress and flirts with the boy, also a massage and an in-flight movie. deal?"
He asked for 10 all in advance, but Luke and Obi-wan have to sell stuff for money to go Obi-wan offers 15 later (I always thought that he assumed the Alderaanian government would foot the bill)
You are part of the Rebel Alliance and a Traitor! Take her away!"
or in other words...
So, Lone Starr, now you see that evil will always triumph, because good is dumb.

I agree with the one post before this saying Obi-Wan sensed SOMETHING would happen to them, voiding payment. That, or he was just tickling Han's greed to be sure he'd take them. The latter was probably George Lucas' intention at the time, but we nerds took it three steps further
- "Holding her is dangerous, if word of this gets out it could generate sympathy for the rebellion in the senate."
- "I have traced the rebel spies to her. Now she is my only lead to finding their secret bass."

What good is a reward if you ain't around to use it? Besides, playing with that Drumstation is not my idea of courage. It's more like - a coffee house gig!

Let's not over-think this. He was spending other peoples' money, so he didn't really care how much he promised. He offered the moon, and Solo bit. Greed, like you said.
Wow, I feel all geeky now. Also, its hard to believe that movie came out 34 years ago...and I saw it in the theater when it was new. Damn, I'm getting old...

Don't mean to make you feel older than you are, but that movie is 12 years older than me...

That would make you a babeh!
Jk I was 2 when it came out so I didn't see it in the theater but I did Jedi in the theater when it came out.
