Imagine—from around the world, thousands of pasty, mole-eyed Star Wars fans converging on one spot to watch replicas of R2-D2 race against each other. It’s enough to make a man cry.
I respect a person’s right to love and fondle robot parts and I think droid racing is cool. But maybe, next year, they could have a big human race, as well? Tell them that a Jar-Jar-less version of Episode 1 awaits at the finish line. That’ll get ’em moving.
