Funny how you fail to mention the OT's similarities to the SF of the time. Cloud City? Very similar concept to an episode of Star Trek: "The Cloud Minders". Dressing up in Stormtrooper outfits to rescue a Princess? See "Flash Gordan Co...  [Read More]

I have a theory that states he used the Force energy harnessed by his absorption of Dooku's lightning to propel himself at such superhuman speed. Sure, it's JKII-ish, but it might work....  [Read More]

The "Dagobah is Naboo" theory has been around for a while (check aldera.net), and it has been debunked by the Star Map available in every NJO novel, with an updated one in some of the new AOTC books. If you look, you'll see that Dagobah is...  [Read More]

No, no, no. Anakin left 3PO with his mother, so technically his mother owned him when Anakin left. Then, when Shmi married was bought by Cliegg, 3PO became his property. When Shmi was freed, 3PO was still a possession of Cliegg. Thus, when Anakin and...  [Read More]

It was quite a struggle for Yoda just to push the column away from Obi-Wan and Anakin, much less throw it into Dooku's ship. I mean, we're talking a column that supports at least the roof of the hangar, maybe several floors above. Much heavier than a...  [Read More]

Hmmmm...I think Anakin could be a false messiah, so to speak. Sure, he's the most powerful Jedi of his time, but then Luke comes along and is able to defeat him. Luke, who has only been trained by a near-death Yoda and old Ben Kenobi, as opposed to A...  [Read More]

Thank you, Mr. Tim. Finally, someone who's seen "Leon" can vouch for her acting ability. However, I do agree that some of the lines in AOTC could be helped greatly by a decent scriptwriter. George Lucas, though he's a great imaginator, is t...  [Read More]
