GIP

Or sort of a GIP-plus, I suppose.

I dug out my copy of the Phantom Menace Japanese trailer today. It's amazing how much more right it feels this way than the original English. I wish I had the whole movie in Japanese dub. Heck, all of Star Wars. I remember when we first saw this trailer, we were all so impressed with Yoda. Yoda's dialogue should always be in Japanese. If they can subtitle Jabba, they can subtitle Yoda.

I've uploaded it for your delectation: Phantom Menace Japanese teaser trailer (23 MB Quicktime). Right-click-download-save.

Just one more thing from Prisoner of Azkaban (emphasis added):

I swam as a dog back to the mainland.... I journeyed north and slipped into the Hogwarts grounds as a dog. I've been living in the forest ever since, except when I came to watch the Quidditch, of course.

Confidential to P: I'm so sorry, sweetie. I swear, you'll get laid soon.

ETA: Today's Dork Tower says it all.
