i might be your mom, who knows
It was a fake beard during the Dooku scenes because he shaved after principal photography was done, so when they went for reshoots, CGI beard.

Ah – yeah, I was pretty sure that whatever I had read before had said it was because they had to fill in some scenes that they went back and re-shot later. Merci!

That said: CGI? And not just, y’know, a fake beard? Wow. OK. (Shows what I know, anyways, half the stuff people call out for being “obviously CGI” in Star Wars I’m like “Oh, I didn’t even notice that part”. You guys, it took me an EMBARRASSINGLY long time to learn how much of the Movie Clone Content was CG.)

So I was scrolling innocently down my dash and read these beard posts and went THIS IS MY AREA OF EXPERTISE, I HAVE STUDIED THIS EXTENSIVELY.

Ewan’s fake beard (and bonus glued-on extra-long hair skirt!) can be found in the following scenes:

  • In the elevator on the way to see Padme. It magically becomes real when they come out of the elevator, which is lucky, as this allows Padme to meet Obi-Wan again in his full natural state of hotness and probably muse inwardly about what a good beard it is. (The elevator scene is the most egregious case of both CGI Beard and Hair Skirt. At other points in the movie I think it’s an actual physical stick-on. CGI Beard is blurry and kind of shiny and the wrong colour. Possible Stick-On Beard is thin, patchy and relatively unkempt. Real Beard is, of course, ginger, glorious, and sweetly caresses Obi-Wan’s lower face like Anakin probably does when he’s asleep.)
  • “I hate it when he does that.” 
  • “This weapon is your life!!!” (We can maybe see a pattern emerging - a fair number of fake beard scenes are little Obi-Wan/Anakin banter/interaction moments. Maybe George decided they needed more and added them in.)
  • The Kamino scene where he’s sitting in the giant soup ladle - it switches back and forth between fake and real from shot to shot
  • Parts of the Dooku duel, in particular that one really scowly close-up - his beard’s a hot mess there, Dooku’s probably wondering what the hell Qui-Gon taught this child

And probably a couple others. Anyway, Spot the Fake Beard makes a great drinking game!

Star Trek au where everything is the same but Bones is from Canada instead of Georgia

DAMN IT MAN i just stabbed you with this hypo, my god, i’m so sorry. i’m SO sorry. hell, let me pour some maple syrup on that for you. 

Bones would clearly be a Maritimer.

“I suffer from aviophobia and she’s no fuckin’ joke, I’m tellin’ ya. She’ll knock you on your arse harder'n a bout of Andorian shingles in a gale. Why’m I here, then? Oh, the ex-wife took the whole damn planet in the divorce. Cottage *and* the boat, even my grammie’s damn chesterfield - was some brutal. Might as well move up west after that, since all I got left is my bones in a fuckin’ Sobeys bag. Jim Kirk? How’s it goin’. McCoy, Leonard McCoy. J’eat yet? No? How's about we go grab a couple beer when we land, then? Sure could use one.”

Hello, it’s your friendly neighborhood Internet historian here. As I recently realized we are nearing the 10 year anniversary of this particular meme I thought it might be useful to share its prestigious story.

Early in 2005 a blogger got a bootleg DVD of Revenge of the Sith, which included terrible subtitles which had been translated from English into Chinese and then back into English. The title, despite being written on the screen anyway, was subbed as “Star War: The Backstroke of the West” and contained numerous running jokes such as the phrase “Jedi Council” consistently being translated as “Presbyterian Church”. 

At the end of the movie, Darth Vader screaming “NOOOOOO” was translated simply as “Do not want”.

The rest, as they say, is history.

*eta I was looking at the wrong post, the anniversary is in June
