Han didn't have fight scenes, mostly he flew in the Falcon. But he did confront plenty of stormtroopers on the Death Star, he tried to fight Vader at Cloud City, and he beat up on some stormtroopers on Endor. I do agree though he didn't have a traditional fight scene.

Greivous is not a droid he is a cyborg like Vader


so are you telling me he is human under that suit?

take another look at the pictures of him and tell me where a human body could fit in that thing..
its practically impossible...

Grievous is not human, but some kind of alien behind that mask, you can see green gooey bits of him inside the armour.

thats my point. And if you disclude the duels, of which there is only one in each film all three of which are story/character driven more then action driven, then it would be fair to say there are NO fight scenes in the OT.

Are you sure about that? I would've thought the green gooey stuff was just some kind of machine lubricant or the like. I mean, this "alien" would have to be the interstellar equivalent of a praying mantis to fit in that costume.

Not between characters, but alot between starships as far as fighting period. I would definately say that there is more space action in the OT then PT. (Mostly because of everything to do with the Falcon.) In defense of the PT however, there are undoubtably going to be more fight scenes with lightsabers and such because there are more Jedi running around that as a script writer you can play with.

Yes but I'm not talking about space battles, I'm talking about individual character fight scenes. Ones that don't prgress the story in any way. Look at Han and boba in ROTJ, if this was the PT they would of had a huge fight. Not that Boba's death is particularly good in ROTJ, but it certainly would of gone down different in the PT.

And I'm sure we'd have tofind out why Jabba was "da man" and he's do some kindo fo Hutt kung fu

according to the offical site he is a non-humaniod alien. I'm sure like Vader most of his organics have been lost, but he is a cyborg non-the-less. and apparenly we'll see behind his mask at some point in Ep3.

If you look at his face up close you can see that his eyes are organic with flesh around them.

1. I get what you are saying with the character fights. And in all honesty, I think your idea of a Han and Boba semi-fight is actually a better idea, inspired from the PT and all.
2. You got it right. Originally some kind of flexible alien from what Clone Wars suggests (though I am sure it is heavily exagerated like Mace or Kit or Anakin or Obi) and then became a droid from what I conjecture. And as far as I know, he doesn't have the force at all, he just moves fast. If he starts deflecting blaster bolts from the clones in Episode 3 however, we may have a question mark? on how he can use an obviously force derived ability, but I doubt it.

A pint? They come in pints?


From FOTR EE, I just couldn't resist. Just the thought of Obi taking a pint and then spilling the beans is funny.

Yeah, that's the one... can I have another pint?... and he taught me how to bong this stuff without having to swallow in gulps... yeah, those were good times at the Jedi school.
