How would one pronounce:
"Asajj" as in Asajj Ventress.
:huh Please help! :)
My best guess is "ah-SAA-juh" ( j with french 'zz' sound?)

I pronounce it like that but without the "uh" at the end, but I could be wrong...

well I don't pronounce it with a separate 'uh' syllable, I was just trying to approximate the sound using text. It's harder than it looks!
I'm going to be making a costume so i can dress up like her for the premiere, and I want to make sure I'm not butchering her name. :p

This ain't official, but I always thought it ryhmed with garage, along the lines of uh-sahge.

I may be illiterate, or maybe it's just the Canadian in me, but I read your pronounciation and LD's the same way. :huh

So no Leia metal bikini? :p

That is correct. It's too expensive to have one made, and I don't trust myself to make something that, if it malfunctions, will leave me considerably naked. :o

Since when did that become a problem? ;)

I think I got confused with the "french zz thing"... :)
As for the Leia costume, here's one from Comic Con:

(you may need to cut and paste the URL to make it work)
Anyway, the gal who did this seems to have made the cups with a little extra material so they would be held on separate from the metal part, and she still looks really good in it..

Well, the Sith's costume should be easy enoug to make with what you can find.
Doesn't look too complicated.
I may be getting the black corset dress as soon as I find out if I can find someone to make Joe Anakins costume.
If not, then I'll be doing the whole Sith chic thing again like last time. :)

What's a 'heal' ? :p I've heard of someone being healed before, but that's just ridiculous. :mneh
