Jedi Badge Live Again! Rogue One Launch Day - What's Your Favourite Star Wars Movie?

Last May 4th, we launched a Jedi badge for one day only, which turned out to be more popular than some of the expensive, product-driven, business-focused engagement programs that have taken lots of people weeks to plan imageimage

 

But that's Star Wars for you.

 

With Rogue One launching today (eep! High hopes for this film, I have) the timing seemed right to recruit a few more Jedi into our worthy ranks! So for today only, those who don't already have the Jedi badge can earn it by doing the following:

  • First, update your profile image and avatar to your favourite Star Wars character.
  • Then add your favourite saga quote as a status update.
  • Finally, vote in our poll below to determine the best movie in the entire Star Wars franchise (so far (far away)).

 

For those who've already earned the Jedi badge, completing these tasks and leaving a worthy comment below about why this is your favourite Star Wars flick will award you the rank of Jedi Master!

 

Go get 'em, you bunch of stuck up, half-witted, scruffy-lookin' Nerf herders!

    I felt a great disturbance in the Force last night, and now I know why -- Clem voted for The Phantom Menace?! Dude's gone to the dark side... You get a badge for that, Clem -- a badge of shame!

    I voted for the return of the Jedi, my preferred story of the series. But when the first Star Wars film was about to be presented to the public I saw a great preview in Montecarlo during an edition of Imagina; in that period I was mostly a technical writer for some Italian newspapers. I was really fascinated speaking with the special effects designer for an interview about the techniques adopted to film the high speed attack to the center of the planet. Then, some years after I made a short stop-motion animation where most of the animated flying characters was created with this method and small plastic molded models...

    I worked with one of the operators that helped film this (starts at 0:17):

    Nice ! The genial idea was to film static spaceships models only changing the orientation on the chroma key then putting them on the fast moving stellar background.
