We weren't fucking around when we said we were calling in the big guns.

Help us, Obi-Wan Kenobi. You're our only hope.

Detroit...

You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy. We must be cautious.

OH SHI

It’s so on.

I don’t know if it’s just my unbridled homerism or a total delusional state of consciousness or the Nostrodomis in me… but… I think we’ll win tonight.

Darth Vader: I’ve been waiting for you, Obi-Wan. We meet again, at last. The circle is now complete. When I left you, I was but the learner; now I am the master.

Obi-Wan: Only a master of evil, Darth.

I’m so geeked up for tonight it’s stupid.

That's no moon.

It’s a space station.

Chellie is Toews's father.

No. That’s not true! THAT’S IMPOSSIBLE!

(Toews looks into his heart and knows, etc.)

WAIT FOR THE WHISTLE!

Different movie.... same idea....

Two quotes that got me thinking about the Hawks today…

From The Shawshank Redemption

Red: Let me tell you something my friend. Hope is a dangerous thing. Hope can drive a man insane.

Remember Red, hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things, and no good thing ever dies. – Andy Dufresne

Come Hawks… one time…

Obi-Wan: I have something here for you. Your father wanted you to have this when you were old enough, but your uncle wouldn’t allow it. He feared you might follow old Obi-Wan on some damn fool idealistic crusade like your father did.
Kaner: What is it?
Obi-Wan: Your father’s hockey stick. This is the weapon of a Chicago Blackhawk. Not as clumsy or random as a stick; an elegant weapon for a more civilized age. For over a thousand generations, the Chicago Blackhawks were the guardians of peace and justice in the NHL. Before the dark times… before the Scum.

If I can't be a good example, I'll just be a horrible warning

Kaner: How did my father lose his hockey stick?
Obi-Wan: A young Blackhawk named Chris Chelios, who was a pupil of mine until he turned to evil, helped the Scum hunt down and destroy the Chicago Blackhawks. He betrayed and can-openered your father. Now the Blackhawks are all but extinct. Chelios was seduced by the dark side of the NHL

Bravo for using

Alec Guiness.

Not that guy from Moulin Rouge. Hard to believe it’s the same guy from Trainspotting. Now, I know Mr. McGregor was a decent young Obi-Wan, but since we are calling in the big guns, Alec simply must be the choice. Again, bravo.
