A) Because that's how the engine renders Curves. :) At a distance, they appear less smooth but when you get close, the appear more smooth. This is to cut down on the total number of polygons rendered at any one time. They should appear fairly smooth...  [Read More]

I don't see why people can't just accept the fact that people like different colors... not everything has to be a symbol, guys. :D Light Jedi typically like blue and green because the color is more smooth and pure. Dark Jedi typically like red beca...  [Read More]

If you're wondering about the "Revenge of the Jedi" line, that was the original working title of "Return of the Jedi" although as I've heard it, apparently Lucas changed it at the last minute because he didn't want Jedi to be port...  [Read More]

I doubt that Lucas himself will do the new films... I believe he much more wants to just make his own films outside of the Star Wars universe. But George Jr. might do it when he inherits the empire... in that event, I have a feeling that the new Sta...  [Read More]
