Star Wars Nerds Rule!

The robe worn by Obi Wan Kenobi in the original 'Star Wars' flicks, just sold for a whopping $107,109 at the Angels Star Collection of Film & TV Costumes. More than 400 film and TV outfits were up for grabs, including James Bond's dinner jacket from 'Thunderball', a huge collection from 'Dr. Who', and costumes from 'Titanic', 'Braveheart', 'Indiana Jones', and 'Superman'.

You can peruse the items that were auctioned and see how much they sold for (in British Pounds) here. The listings include which actor wore the outfit in what movie or TV show, and includes the year worn. The list reads like a who's who of Hollywood royalty with names like Roger Moore, Catherine Zeta Jones, Harrison Ford, Ralph Fiennes, George C. Scott, Ernest Borgnine, Robert Duvall, Anthony Hopkins, Sean Connery, Michael Caine, and Gene Hackman. It was interesting to look through and see if I remembered the actors wearing particular outfits in the movies.
