If Star Wars was set in Glasgow .............
Chewbacca would look roughly the same except he'd only be about 5ft
tall,from Blackhill and be called Shug. He'd have the same amount of body hair, but would also have tattoos. He would permanently smell of
whisky and piss and sport either a Rangers or Celtic top.
Obi-Wan Kenobi would invariably be referred to as Chief or Big Yin by
his cohorts. People trying to start a fight with him would addess him
asWanky-Nobby.
Darth Vader would be referred to as 'Auld Helmet Heid' or in moments
Of stress 'That Dome-Heided Basturd'
R2D2 would refuse to go out on the streets after 10pm, because of the
Number of drunks who would try to stuff chip papers in his head casing or piss on him. He would also refuse to go near groups of wee boys at any time because of the high risk of being spray painted, dumped in front of a speeding train or set on fire.
Although proficient in over 3,500 languages C3P0 would still be unable to understand anything anyone from the East End of Glasgow said. He would regularly get beaten up for being a 'greetin-faced poof fae Milngavie'.
The Millenium Falcon would have static strips, tinted windscreens and
extra-flared exhaust ports. It would have a Daily Record, "I Love
Scotland" sticker in the back window and a saltire (St Andrews cross)
Bumper sticker.
Princess Leia would get captured by Darth Vader because it's hard to
Run very fast when you're wearing 5-inch platform heels and a tiny silver mini-skirt which keeps hiking up over your arse every two steps. And you've been a heavy smoker since you were 6.
The best way to destroy the Death Star would not necessarily be a
desperate all-out attack. Two easy ways would be: (a) alter its orbit
so it passed through Bridgeton and tell the locals it was full of Roman Catholics, or (b) leave it unattended in Easterhouse.
Lines from the film as they would be uttered in the vernacular:-
"I've got a real bad feeling about this"
"Ah'm shitin' ma sel' here boy"
"Bring 'em on! I prefer a straight fight to all this sneaking around."
"Come right ahead then c**ts! Ahl fight the f**ing lot o ye!"
"There's no mystical energy field controls my destiny."
"The Force?!! D'youse think ah came doon wae the rain?!"
"Hokey religions and ancient weapons are no match for a good blaster
at your side, kid."
"Nae messin aboot wae the god squad and auld rubbish, wee man. Get
yersel' a decent shooter"
"The Force is strong in this one"
"Stop shooglin' ya wee basturd!"
"You're a little short for a Stormtrooper aren't you?"
"Ah didnae think they took short-arses in the polis?"
"This bucket of bolts is never going to get us past that blockade."
"Wuv goat NAE chance in this pile o' shite"
"Don't try to frighten us with your sorcerer's ways, Lord Vader." "You think you're that hard, Vader so ye do. Well we're no feart ae
you!"
"I felt a great disturbance in the Force."
"F*** me! whit wiz aw that?"
"Your overconfidence is your weakness."
"Oh ye bloody think so!"
