Look, be thankful we didn’t go with some variant of “ship-faced”.
As you might be able to tell, for a recent Star Wars fan’s birthday, he got what every Star Wars fan dreams of: George Lucas personally coming to him and tearfully apologizing for destroying his childhood love, and giving him a signed copy of the original cuts in pristine condition on DVD, and also the character models of Jar-Jar to smash with a sledgehammer.
Actually, that’s just what he saw after doing five shots from the Star Destroyer ice luge that his friend built. But it was almost as good.
Want to see how a Star Destroyer ice luge is built? We’ve got a slide show for you, under the jump.
The raw materials. Ever notice how Diet Coke cans are always used for scale with these things?
The actual ice construction without any finishing touches or grooves.
And finally a comparison of the finished piece and a shot of it in action.
