Old Blog Archive: Attack of the _Mini_Indy_

This blog entry was originally posted on my now defunct Star Wars.com blog. I am now archiving it for posterity in my new, improved, and free blog.

---------------------------------------------------

My little brother is four years old - or as he puts it, "Almost five." He also aspires to be Darth Vader when he grows up. The picture I chose looks almost exactly like him - except my brother always carries my lightsaber, wears his black winter boots, my Darth Vader voice-changer mask, a cape my mom made him, black pants, and a Darth Vader shirt.

But on to the subject... Since he is only four, he can't pronounce everything quite right. Here is a quick glossary of terms he uses, spelled as he pronounces them:

  • Yeya - Leia
  • Darf - Darth
  • Darf Brooks - Darth Maul
  • Pamay - Padmé
  • Empveror - Emperor
  • Dangrish - Dangerous
  • Astroy - Destroy
  • Gawaxy - Galaxy
  • Alennium Vulcan - Millennium Falcon (The ironies abound)

So, now that you will be able to decipher what he says, let's move on to the good part... his Darth Vader Quotes, _Mini_Indy_ style:

  • > You don't know the Dark Side of the Dark Side.
    • What scares me, is that apparently he does.
  • [He walks up to me] You're Yeya. Yeya, I am your daddy. [He walks up to my sister] you're Pamay. Pamay, I am your daddy.
    • We're working on his relationship issues.
  • We'll hafta astroy them ship to ship.
    • He got this one right, but it was so cute!
  • Bring me the passengers dead. I want them alive!
    • It makes sense to him.

And, last but not least, the complete story of Star Wars in 11 seconds:

Once upon a time, in a gawaxy far, far away, there was Luke and Yeya... and Darf Vader... and... Pamay.

And the Empveror was hurtin' Luke. And Darf Vader... turned into good again... and he throwed the Empveror down the tower: That died him.



There you go. My little _Mini_Indy_.

P.S. He also has an alter-ego: Luke. No cute quotes from that, yet. Stay tuned.
