the graphic horror of that second-to-last pic always puzzled me, given the movie was aimed at kids/teenagers

also, how did they die? did the stormtroopers barbecue them or something? there are no scorch marks around them. nor does anyone else killed by stormtroopers end up looking like buffalo wings

Are you saying that somewhere, sometime, someone started thinking of the children?

meh.
I guess in the end one should be directed to the yellow part of that image.

but still; on the stormtrooper note. Fuck the Ewoks and that battle. Sure they also captured the rebels but that's not the point. The point is that the Ewoks throw fucking rocks at the Stormtroopers which knocks them out... those helmets are just for show then? :mad:

Fair point, though at least those leave a burning hole (in some of the shots).

You realize that they are not cremated, right? Just massively charred. Cremation burns the bones too.

So salty. If we were to google everything in every discussion there wouldnt be much discussion left ey.

Anyway, the proper answer seems to be "so long as there's oxygen". So that Owen-n-BeruBQ could be of the napalm variety.

Takes between 1 to 3 hours to completely cremate someone in a coffin, dependent on the size of the person. Not nearly that long for extra crispy.

And you were wrong. Besides, why would the stormtroopers be in a hurry? They're kinda like the cops. They would have time for a slow roast.

calm your tits, gandalf

i was right. george lucas just wants us to see what brutal cunts the empire is, so he shows us barbecued moisture farmer, even though the scenario begs more questions than it answers
