But, but, Shadows sucked so hard, while Mag's work kicks serious ass. I know, to each their own, I just didn't care for the Shadows of the Empire thing at all. I find Steve Perry to be a mediocre author at best, The game was alright, but nothing amazingly special, the new characters and the story line really did nothing for me. Psuedo Han Solo and his Psuedo Falcon just felt so forced, Xizor was lame and his whole subplot with Vader was weak. I did like the score however. Anyway, I'm rambling now, forgive me. Yay Magnolia edits!
I agree on Dash Rendar and the Outrider, blatant xerox copies of Han and the Falcon, but other than that, I found Shadows excellent. And speaking of the score, you know MF's used some of it in BotF.

Was surprised that some of C3P0's 'comedic' lines made it to the final MFE cut - it does seem out of place amongst the events that have just taken place in the arena.

I find the 'flamesaber' VERY interesting since early rumors of AotC said Dooku would wield a similar weapon. Obviously, that didn't pan out, which I agreed with. Maul's double-bladed saber is one thing, but multi-colored blades? What's next, a seven bladed rainbow-saber?
As for the droids, yes, leave them on Padme's ship.
