R2D2 was actually running the show!

This is Geek Level Nine, but damn. Thanks to Phillylist, I find this, and I gotta say -- wow. Just ... wow. Star Wars Episodes 4-6 re-examined in context of 1-3, and much like the legendary recut of Episode 1, this guy's take on the Star Wars mythos is AU's more satisfying, particularly from a screenwriter's standpoint.

Anyone who can convincingly argue R2-D2 is the mastermind of the Rebellion is aces in my book. Nicely done, Keith.

Heads you'd like to slap

If you speak a bit of French, or ideally a LOT of French, you owe it to yourself to check out Têtes à claques, Québec's most popular website.

If your French is only so-so, check out the top-rated Le Willi Waller 2006 -- there's plenty there to catch since it's half in English.*

WTF?
