Can anyone direct me to a larger version of these pictures? I'd love to have one as a desktop background, but I cannot read Japanese.

]]> <![CDATA[Samurai Stormtroopers Hunt Down and Exterminate Ninja Jedis]]> Love it.

Really like the idea of a ninja (Anakin) becoming the head of the samurai (Darth). That alone would create a whole new element.

It was always a little odd to imagine this militaristic figure as having once been a jedi. It's not just going from "good" to "evil" - but an entirely different mindset. I mean, I know there are arcs out there for the period between Ep. III & IV, but the layers of what it would mean, philosophically, to make that switch from ninja to samurai seems right on.

]]> <![CDATA[Samurai Stormtroopers Hunt Down and Exterminate Ninja Jedis]]> yeah I concur with sunzhiqian - "Jedi" is the same in its singular and plural forms.

also, "Dark Lord of the Shogun" makes no sense at all.

]]> <![CDATA[Samurai Stormtroopers Hunt Down and Exterminate Ninja Jedis]]> Damn, hate to admit my dorkometer is reading off the chart right now, but its kinda bad-ass looking.

The last samurai was a great flick. Little OT but still unbleivable that im saying that.

Dont worry Tom, I may be an SP but it was still your best movie.

]]> <![CDATA[Samurai Stormtroopers Hunt Down and Exterminate Ninja Jedis]]> Star Wars in ancient Japan? Hmm. That sounds a little too "Turtlish" to me.

]]> <![CDATA[Samurai Stormtroopers Hunt Down and Exterminate Ninja Jedis]]> I don't wanna be critical here, but isn't Jedi spelled the same, plural or singular?

Oh, and this is a sweet post!

]]> <![CDATA[Samurai Stormtroopers Hunt Down and Exterminate Ninja Jedis]]> Someone really needs to do Star Wars set in Feudal Japan. It would be really cool to see Darth Vader emerge from the door of a Japanese castle in his ninja garb. Very Akira Kurosawa. Via George Lucas. Via Akira Kurosawa.

]]> <![CDATA[Samurai Stormtroopers Hunt Down and Exterminate Ninja Jedis]]> Whoa! A Stormtrooper armor? Cool. I think the Dart Vader Samurai armor looked better when I was in Akihabara last spring.

]]> <![CDATA[Samurai Stormtroopers Hunt Down and Exterminate Ninja Jedis]]> But the SW movies were influenced, in part, but Samurai movies. Vader's helmet cowl was supposed to echo a Samurai helmet (though to most Western eyes it looks more WWII German infantry influenced).
