Star Wars ties break
new ground as Padmé signs with Always.
There is a long history of "tie-ins"
to the Star Wars franchise. Fast food franchises, soda pop companies,
toy manufactures and others usually clamor to put the Star Wars name on their
products. However, it is reported the dark and mature nature of the new
installment of the story has driven many of these companies away. Always,
a manufacturer of feminine hygiene products, stepped into this void by signing
the new Star Wars character Senator Padmé Naberrie, also known as Queen Amidala,
to front for Maxipads. Our reporter got the story.
Reporter : "You are a Senator, a former Apprentice
Legislator, and former Naboo Queen. So why do commercials?"
Padmé : "After the Trade Federation siege of Naboo
and The Battle of Naboo with the Gungans, I am a bit strapped for
cash. You should see the bill Jedi
Knights sent me for their services."
Reporter : "It had nothing to do with pressure
from George Lucas?+
Padmé : "No comment."
Reporter : "So why Always? Is than not a
bit undignified for a Queen?" Padmé
: "And running around at a boobie bobling pace, in a midriff top, in
spray on pants, with a big phallic gun is not? Reporter
: "You
have a point." Padmé :
"Sometimes the crew really riled me. At times I wished that stupid prop
gun worked. If it did, watch out. The next guy who says, "Hey, Padmé
come over to my pad, and we'll launch my rocket" will be Wookiee
waste." Reporter
: "You seem a
bit irate." Padmé :
"Listen, have you seen the script for the next episode? I am
to marry Skywalker. Figure those monogram jokes, P.M.S., Pad Mé
Skywalker. If Lucas goes with that, he will not be in for a Lightday.
What a douche bag."
George Lucas : "Hey Padmé, I
spoke to Massengill about another tie in"
< sound of a scream and a light saber

Padmé : "Do you think we can
get
J. Michael Straczynski or
Steven Spielberg for Episode III?"
