One has to wonder how a superlaser fired from a battle station the size of the moon has such a narrow beam, though. You'd think such a beam would be thick enough to envelop and pass right through a conventionally-sized ship regardless of its overall intensity.
JEDIT: I think I just figured out what my problem with the Death Star II's beam blowing ships out of the sky is.
I've been dead for the past five years or so, and believe you me, death's not all it's cracked up to be.
^I think he put you on ignore after you made your post stating that you were putting him on ignore and after he made this reply.

I wonder where supergroaner went to, anyway. I don't believe he's reared his cyberspacial head since he was chastized for being a disrespectful asshat in his nerd rage thread.

He changed Hollywood again just as he did with the first Star Wars film.
I put more blame on Gus Van Sant and his abysmal Psycho remake for making Hollywood the way it is today than I do Lucas.
But Psycho 1998 didn't make $450 million domestically. Look at Transformers, Star Trek, Amazing Spider-Man, and Man Of Steel. All those film franchises have been influenced in one way or another by the Phantom Menace (or the PT) with their over-complicated plots, over-reliance on CGI, and contempt for their audience.
It still paved the way for all the garbage remakes/reboots which have become Hollywood's current mistress.
CG Snootles should be drawn and quartered for how bad she sounded and looked.

1 member has you on their ignore list:
I'm disappointed that he didn't add me to his ignore list.
^I was wondering about that myself.
I didn't think anything could make a single element from the remake good, but that edit managed to do the impossible.

Every single cantina alien works for the Rebellion or the Empire. Are there any civilians in that cantina?
If there are, there won't be for long. ;-)
The Triangle (2001) - 6/10
Psychos (2014) - 8/10
I wonder if I'm the only person who pronounces "LGBT" as "ligbit".

Loved that show, wished that hadn't cancelled it. As an original Texan, I can attest that it was pretty spot on about our quirks.
I liked the show, too, but I don't think it could have lasted much longer before it became a joke like The Simpsons.

^To the first one:
Why does this bother people? Droids are likely mass produced, like cars are in our galaxy, so it is no less plausible for Owen and Beru to not recognize C-3PO (who looks different in Episode IV than in Episode II anyway) and R2-D2 (who is only one of who-knows-how-many astromech droids, since we see at least a dozen in the prequels) than it is for a person to recognize a re-painted truck they once owned, and a car that belonged to someone who visited the neighbours.
Still, if I happened to find/buy/steal some sentient machine that had virtually identical speech patterns and mannerisms to another sentient machine I once owned, I'd mention it, even if only casually and without any real belief that the two machines were one and the same.

I've never even watched the DVD I have, at least not all the way through. That should tell you enough!
I only hope you didn't buy that DVD new.
Why doesn't Owen/Beru/Ben show any signs of recognition when they first see Threepio and Artoo in Ep. IV?
Why does Ben say the Republic stood for one thousand generations (which is about 13,000-25,000 years), if Palpatine said it stood for only a thousand years?
Why does Ben say that Yoda was the one who instructed him when it was Qui-Gon?
Why do lightsabers now come equipped with D-rings when the Jedi in the prequels attached them to their belts magnetically?

For the briefest moment I wonder if you are a little unpleasant paranoid creep, an ill behaved ten year old, or just a troll.
He's all three depending on the universe in question.
Currently rewatching Sabrina, the Teenage Witch, and I'm now into the second season. Seeing Melissa Joan Hart in tight pants episode after episode makes me feel like a hormonal teenaged boy again.
I hope his kind never genuinely resurfaces in a SW film ever again.
I like how that alien looks like a grown-up, bearded version of the baby from Eraserhead.
Ah, The Giver ... that was a book I read at the right age at the right time to have the right effect on me. Just like Jumper, I'm never going to watch the film adaptation.
^Fuck them! I want Ric on a Deep One gynoid's dress!
