I don’t know what this means. I know a lady whose last name is Bray but I know you aren’t comparing snooker to her.

Because she has class.

The last several posts have the musk of social commentary about them.

Why are all the troopers left handed in this scene? The footage doesn’t look like it’s flipped.

Don’t diss the lefties. We’ve been oppressed for quite some time. I remember an elementary librarian yelling at me to not use my left hand to write. So now I’m ambidextrous.

I thought they put an end to that shit in the '70s at the latest.

It was because how the rifles were manufactured. I believe most troopers are lefties in the films, at least when they are not shooting.

And in the time of greatest despair, there shall come a savior, and he shall be known as the Son of the Suns.

It’s because if they hold it in that pose, but right handed, the gun’s magazine bangs up against the chest armor and scratches it to heck. Mocata is right, troopers throughout the trilogy are left handed. And it’s specifically for that one reason.

I really hate how much ROTS uses the Force theme.

Having a look back through The Art Of The Empire Strikes Back book. It mentioned that medical droid 2-1B has a human brain. Freaky.
That concept has been written out of Star Wars history.

Star Wars stole from Doctor Who apparently. I’m concerned.
