These really are compelling characters and story. I can't wait to see what he does with mine! This is such a cool project, I'm glad I signed up!

They are all going to come and have a large basket-weaving competition and then a rowdy hoe-down! Then, if the mood strikes them, they shall run BACKWARDS! After that, they shall dye thier skin green and sing "I'm a little teapot!" while hopping on one leg!

WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

I know what you mean, Bo. RH closed the auditions two days before I got my first decent check after a summer of crappy employment.

Ah, well. There'll be other movies.

I wonder if the Chairwoman's last name is Stanton.
Liea was a Princess of Alderaan and in the Senate. Bet she had some handmaids (pre-Rebel officer days). A Republic does not mean a elegatarian society. Rome was a Republic, but you had to basically buy a seat in the Senate, if you weren't a well heeled landed man you couldn't get in.

Not to mention that you weren't conspired worth spit if you did not have a few slaves running around.

Is it just me, or is there more than a bit of "Gone to Texas" cropping up here?

Rommel ignoring the execution orders for POWs in North Africa for one.
Which appears to have been one major reason he later became involved in the "telephone plot" to overthrow the Nazi government in '44. Ironically, if one of our Allied pilots hadn't wounded him during the D-Day invasion, it might have succeeded despite Hitler not actually having been killed.

Gack. I just noticed that the Chairwoman's forelimbs are not wings but webbed feet. That...is...weird....

Damn. Even in a cameo sweet Atesha ends up a servant to the evil ruler. :roll: Wonder if these cameos will go further? Maybe band together to kick injustice in the rear? Can't wait to see where it all goes. I really like the movie idea. ^.^

We all saw what happened to the Republic, didn't we? :)

Not to mention how long Rome's "Republic" status lasted.

Rome stopped being a republic much the same way the Galactic Republic did.. During a crisis, someone was granted supreme power, and the first thing he did with it was make sure he'd stay in power...

...And places everyone under his/her iron-fisted rule.

I wager that the handservant has a few folks at her home planet.
If news of her family getting hurt by the dictatorial swan reached her ears,
most likely, that handmaid will get so steamed that swan may as
well be on served on a platter with cornbread dressing and gravy.

Yeah, I feel the same way about that horrid swan.

Should we friccasse or charbroil her?

Oh, I'm sure we can come up with a good, creative recipe for swan. (If nothing else, she'd make a fair ingredient in chili. She already gives people intestinal discomfort. :roll: )

Historically, it was possible to have a "healthy" master/servant relationship. Or haven't you ever heard of the "loyal family retainer"? (The Chairswan isn't one of them, of course. I suspect the only reason she has servants at all is because she forces them to be there.)

All the more for the slaves to rebel and revolt.

Marie has the possible excuse of ignorance. (As would anyone isolated from the real world. And note I said "possible".)

M'lady Swan may not understand the suffering she induces in "common people", but she can't be ignorant of it's existance. She knows they revolted, she knows they're being forced to do what they don't want, she knows she's taking things away from people. She just thinks this is what they deserve for not letting her have her way.

In other words, she deserves almost anything coming to her. (Although I hope she doesn't die. Unless she can be reincarnated, she needs a hard lesson in the effects of her orders.)

I'm thinking that her Ultimate Battleship gets trashed by a fleet of freighters supposedly under slave-control suddenly deciding to kamikaze on it, and a few select haulers high-tailing it under cover of the confusion.

Wagers?

I'll see that wager, and add to it that only Nip's ship manages to escape.
