Do you take this…lobster-type thing to be your lawfully wedded husband?

Posted on August 17, 2008 @ 11:45 pm

Sometimes, seeing photos of another couple’s wedding makes me want to run out, book a venue, and renew my own vows. Case in point:

 
Just so we’re all on the same page here, that’s Admiral Ackbar of the Mon Calamari getting married to Rebel leader Mon Mothma. With Slave Girl Leia presiding. More details here.

Speaking of Star Wars, I should have my review of The Clone Wars posted tomorrow.

    All I keep thinking of are “It’s a trap!” jokes.

    @Bart: For what it’s worth, “It’s a trap!” was the original title of the entry. But then I figured, hey — a hideous creature like Admiral Ackbar could do a lot worse than Mon Mothma. ;)

    But can she repel firepower of that magnitude?

    Many Bothans died to bring us these photos. Which is why they suck at spy work.

    I am sorry, but some people do need to get out a little more. I have been a geek in the IT trenches for a long time, but when I see pictures like this, I start to get worried about my brethren. Fantasy is a wonderful thing but when you move it into the realm of reality, it is time to take a long hard look at yourself.

    People like this give sci-fi fans a bad name.

    Is it bad that my first reaction was, “Mon Mothma?” Instead of Leia in the SLAVE BIKINI??”

    I’d switch to Leia in the blink of an eye, that’s for sure.
