I know you don't care Jor Tallen, but if you go to StarWars.com, there is all of this new information explaining what Dooku was doing and why, what the Clone Wars were all about, etc., etc. I generally felt a bit confused about all of the politics and reasons for stuff too, but with all of the new Clone Wars stuff at SW.com, they have added all kinds history and info that I never knew, clearing up a lot of the confusion, really cool, you should check it out. Ya....back to Empire.....peace....

you see that's one of the big problems with the PT. Most of it made no sense whatsoever. When you watch a movie you shouldn't have to wait until a website puts extra information to explain things, it should be all there in the movie. The casual viewer wouldn't be heading to a website so they can understand it. Did anyone have that problem with the OT? No. I haven't been able to watch TPM for years now. The last time was the day it came out on DVD. That was the only Star Wars movie ever that i almost fell asleep while watching it on its opening day. I left the cinema feeling numb and wondering what the hell it was all about. It was all just fancy backdrops and FX. The whole battle at the end was pathetic. "oh dear my ship has been hit and i'm not even supposed to be here. Damn autopilot. i like spinning. oh no, now i have been hit and my ship just happened to fly inside this control ship. Oh no, now i have pressed the wrong button and blew up the ship. I've saved the day. yipeee".... YUK. So much for being a great pilot when Obi-Wan met him

quad core should be here in a couple of hours :)

Anakin was a great pilot when Kenobi first knew him. If you were Kenobi and knew Anakin had won a podrace for their hyperdrive (by piloting a pod, something no human had been able to do successfully) and had destroyed the droid control ship, wouldn't you think he was already a great pilot?
