Japanese Girl Practicing English Explains Star Wars

This is a video of Mika explaining Star Wars: A New Hope. Mika is Japanese and practices her English by watching and explaining movies. If you like this one, there's a bunch more, including The Empire Strikes Back, Return of the Jedi, Avatar, Inception, Spiderman and The Matrix. Hands down she does a better job that I could ever do. So there's this one gold robot that talks all the time and is annoying as shit, right? And he hangs out with this other one that looks like a trashcan from the future and I don't know if they're in love or what but they definitely have SOME SORT of thing going on and then there's this chick with cinnamon roll hair and she is like totally doable looking but if you saw her now in real life you'd be all HOLY SHIT WTF HAPPENED TO HER? It looks like time has been VERY unkind. Downright mean even. Okay, so I actually did better than I thought.
Hit the jump for more movie spoilers than you could wave a Rosetta Stone CD at.
Thanks to Simon, who tried explaining his love for me in his email but came across a little creepy. Like, wear my skin creepy. He really loves me!

This is Geekologie reader Doug's home-built Guitar2-D2 electric guitar. He said at first he wasn't gonna send it to me because he felt like that would be too narcissistic of him. Then I think he chugged a couple beers and warmed up a little. I've avoided spreading this link ... / Continue →
