In the future we have laser guns… …and laser crossbows. Badass.

I like Star Wars.
Wow. That was so profound.
You’d rather have him say first instead?
I said profound not original ¬_¬
But it’s not the friggin’ fututre!
When will you guys get it? It says:
“A long time ago in a galaxy far away!”
PAST! NOT FUTURE!
Feel better?
i believe its a work of fiction, so technically it didn’t happen in the past, it never happened at all. the fictional technology envisioned in the movies is far advanced compared to our present level of understanding, thus allowing the assumption that said movies were actually set in the future, or what would be the future of our species if we survive, develop the technology for intergalactic space travel, and if the universe is actually inhabited by other intelligent and sentient beings who have also developed the technology for intergalactic space travel.
Ummm….first line of movie….”A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away…” Number 1, past. Number 2, a different galaxy, so not our species.
wow, missed the point entirely… first line of my comment…i believe its a work of fiction, so technically it didn’t happen in the past, it never happened at all.can you even read?
Apparently, you fail at understanding the whole point of this correction. We understand the idea that Star Wars is fiction. Got it. I wrote it down, even, to make sure I don’t forget it. However, to build the story and the scenario, a writer has to or should stipulate a time and place for the story to take place. Are you following me? Thus, “A long time ago” means it happend in the past. “In a galaxy far, far away” means not in this one. Not even in the next one. It’s one we’ll likely never see. And not just because it doesn’t exist, but because it’s so far away, we’d never make it in our lifetime. So, although fiction means “not real”, there is something called “suspension of disbelief” of which you have obviously never heard. Anyway, the writer is in-your-face explaining to you that his movie took place in the past, hence “a long time ago” and very far away, hence “in a galaxy far, far away.” Your arguement about Star Wars being a work of fiction and thus having no importance in the space/time continuum fails miserably due to your inability to express a valid reason why its time and space is of no consequence.
i know… lets build a time machine, go back into the past and steal lasers to put on our sharks!!!!!
the problem is a time machine only travels through time and not through space, so that would solve the “long ago” problem, but not the “far far away”… in addition you might just end up in a time (same place in space, just as a reminder), due to the earth’s movement around the sun, you most likely end up in space (now refering to the spots in our universe not filled by planets or stars or the like)
nevertheless sharks with lasers on their heads are ace
You could get a TARDIS. Which would help, if you knew where to go.
ICDK = WIN. Also, suspension of disbelief win.
Also, I’d like to point out that it’s not a crossbow. It’s not a laser crossbow. It’s a bowcaster. Thank you.
Someone can read and still disagree with you. It’s a fictional work SET in the past.
so basically, for all these wannabe star wars geeks, it happened in a different galaxy, but as far as time goes, it could be the near past of our DISTANT future. that it, to sum things up?
WORD!
I was gonna say the same thing! It’s the first words you see on the screen of every star wars movie. Just saying.
same here
Ditto.
agreed
That’s what I was about to comment. Starwars FAIL.
Yes, I am fail happy. So sue me.
I was rushing to comment that it wasn’t in the future, but it appears as if I was not the only one offended by this awful mistake.
my sentiments exactly. it’s obviously not made by someone of the fandom proper. heck, I know Trekkers and even TREKKIES that know Star Wars takes place in the past.
I totally agree! Argh! That’s so frustrating. Doesn’t anyone know how to read? It’s right there in the beginning, in yellow!! It’s not like it wasn’t visible.
Um, not to pick nits, but it’s in blue.
God, I’m a geek.
Win.
Girlfriend FAIL
I’m glad I’m not the only one nerdy enough to point this out
This.
THANK YOU!!
Temporal fail
srsly
Crossbows do twice as much damage though, although they use a different form of ammo.
Those movies were so retarded. SO retarded.
Yes, but lots of stuff we do is retarded. It doesn’t stop millions of Americans from having fun.
Oh? Because getting your stained and crusty panties in a bunch over someone missing the “long long time ago, in a galaxy far far away” (so so retarded) must be some new usage of “fun” I was previously unaware of.
Geeking out is fine, but one must maintain a sense of proportion.
hate much lately?
Your heresy is not appreciated.
I hope you have fun in Hell. c:
shouldn’t it be blaster gun?
LOVE Star Wars OT!
More correctly, it’s a Heavy Blaster Pistol, and a Bowcaster.
…I love you guys.
let the wookie win!
I’m glad I was only one of many that wanted to point out that it was the past and not the future.
Ah, Harrison Ford…..=D
i wondered, how many comments it takes to get to the center of nerdiness in fail community? *head explodes*….
Ask Mr. Owl.
Happy Life Day everyone!
NO. I must stand in the way of this. I love Star Wars, I watch it all the time. It’s my favorite movie [Empire Strikes Back, naturally]/movie series. But…I can’t let anyone bring up the Star Wars Christmas Special. It’s terrible. It’s attrocious. It makes me want to pop out my own eyes and eat them.
Star Wars Xmas Special — ur doin it rong
Don’t they also have laser swords?
No, they don’t have laser swords. They have LIGHTSABERS. And seriously, people; how could you possibly call Star Wars retarded when it captivated an entire nation when it first came out during the 70′s? There were lines of literally thousands of people filling the sidewalks in front of movie theatres, with adults and children alike. The ending of the first one got STANDING ovations from audiences. It revolutionized the science-friction genre and had a heavy influence on movies in general. Even after thirty years, people still love it. I just can’t believe that anyone could be so narrow-minded as to simply dismiss it as being “retarded.”
Actually, I believe it was SexWorld that “…revolutionized the science-friction genre.”
And Star Wars episodes 4, 5, and 6 are vastly overrated, although still great fun.
really?its funny that something the average person has probably never really heard of revolutionized a who genre of fiction. it seems far more likely that star wars, which has a total of 6 movies had more to do with bringing great changes to sci-fi than some obscure book or movie(i’m still not sure which it is after searching around a bit).star wars really upped the ante on special effects, marketing of products, and the popularity of sci-fi movies in general… what did sexworld do to revolutionize sci-fi?
This is actually ad populum fallacy. I enjoy Star Wars too, but saying “it can’t suck if large numbers of people like it” fails at logic.
Lightsabers were also known as laserswords.
Laser sword = lightsaber.
Wow. This picture is so gay that it defies logic. Why can’t anyone come up with something funny for once?
Umm… star wars definitely happened in the past, dumbass. Ever catch the line, “a long long time ago, in a galaxy far away.” ? Not the future. Case closed.
Someone send this to Failblog. and Submit as Time FAIL
ya u should…
I get the laser guns, and even the laser crossbows, but how come we don’t have laser hair removal anymore???

NEWB!!!!!!
Umm…stars wars took place a long, long time ago…Jackass..
Reading all of these comments was more entertaining than the lol-photo itself.
Is this a win or a fail?
yep… as seen below…
i AGREE!!!
but i kinda think its a win AND a fail…..
Today…i spent 10 minutes reading these posts while at work. i am an ICU nurse. this is the most fun i have had today. FML
Actually. It’s the past.
I know way late. OThers have said it.
I still wanted too. :}
its actually the past.
i think these comments were more
amusing then the actual pic @ the top : p
OK folks, this whole ‘long time ago in a galaxy far far away’ thing is bugging me. If you take the time to think about that line, or watch some of the special features on the dvd’s, you will find that Lucas was actually refrasing an old, old opening line for fairy tales. You remember it I’m sure. They all started with ‘Once upon a time in a land far away’. Thats all. And how can you guys be arguing like its actually placed in ‘real time’. It a movie folks! The first three were amazing, ground breaking in their tech, and visually astounding for their time. (1977, 80, 83). I saw the original 67 time the summer it came out, I was 9. I just pretend theat the ‘new’ onws didn’t happen.
I don not believe that in 3 years, I’m going to be the first one to point out that Chewie’s bowcaster fires solid quarrels. The laser is a sight, not an energy weapon!
At the risk of sounding completely stupid and for want of a better term, noobish…
Win.
