Thanks for the link, Go-Mer-Tonic. I found it very interesting reading. I was especially interested in the mention of the so-called 'Form Zero', which represents the Jedi's actions when not using a lightsabre and their decision whether or not to use their weapon. It made me think of the episode in the first series of the Clone Wars cartoon with Mace Windu fighting droids after losing his lightsabre. I do feel that there was never enough of 'Form Zero' in the PT.

Now, as interesting as all of the info is, I can honestly say that it was all new to me. My point is that, despite having seen the PT, none of this was communicated to me. I am not a reader of EU novels, comics or games. I've seen the first series of Clone Wars and that's really it. None of this extensive groundwork, whether set out by Luca$h or EU authors or both, made it to the screen in any meaningful way for me. Simply watching the PT did not provide me with any real insight into the Jedi Order.
