For the first time in years, I watched the original Star Wars again (yes, I know it is now called A New Hope). Suddenly it hit me: Jawas are Minions in robes.

Phew...first I thought you realized that the first Star Wars wasn't as good as remembered...so on that note HUTINI!

I thought you were gonna say it was a remake of the 1930's FLASH GORDON serials-only not as fun.
I HATE STAR WARS. ALL OF THEM. :hatred:

So you're saying...  Jaws never was your scene, and you don't like Star Wars?

Ermagawd.  You are so right.  This changes a lot of things, although I can't articulate exactly what.  Hell.  Minions in robes.

Then does that make our Trevor a Minion as well. For here are 8 proofs that he is actually a Jawa in human disguise.

1. Both hold water precious. Thus . . .

2. Both seldom bathe.

3. Both never wash nor change their undies.

4. Both collect.
a. Jawa: droids
b. Trev: films

5. Both have eyes that light up, when they discover something new to add to their collection.

6. Both drive vehicles.
a. Jawa: sand crawler
b. Trev: a human equivalent (i.e. an automobile)

7. Both drive across the sands.
a. Jawa: Tatooine
b. Trev: Kalahari

8. Both are about the same size as a normal child.

Actually, the Jawas in the film Star Wars : Episode IV : a New Hope were played by children. Sometimes to give the illusion of size or distance, adult film characters will be played by children or midgets. Other such films included Alien and Casablanca.

And Trev, old Chief Jawa wants his sand crawler back, when you have finished taking it for a joyride across the Kalahari.
