Hey RRS, that second quote is not from me. It's from MSD.

I wonder if these will have the Force Magnets in them? The original sets had magnets in the hands of the Jedi figures so that when they faced a Stormtrooper (Clone Trooper, et al), an opposite polarity magnet in the enemy fig would make that fig fly backwards as if being pushed back by the Force. Pretty cool, if not simple, trick.

I think I'm liking the C-3PO figure more each time I look at him.

And why does it look like Leia is scratching her ass?

We're almost there. I like your list of fixes, but I still don't want continuity issues fixed. Because that would still mean that Hayden would be subbed for Sebastian Shaw, now wouldn't it?

I agree with HotRod that sci fi doesn't really have a track record for success on TV unless it's on some backwater station like UPN or the WB here in the States. But Lucas wouldn't go for that. If he's putting his time and money on this, he's gonna want CBS, NBC, ABC, or FOX as his broadcast partner and none of these stations have much luck with sci fi. Even if it does have the name Star Wars attached to it.

Could he be a pilot that spoke up during the briefing before they all took off from Yavin 4?

I hated Out Cold when I saw it in theaters. But several months ago, it was all over cable and I started watching it again and I really get a kick out of it now. I have Equilibrium near the top of my Netflix Queue (as is, it would seem, everything else).

She liked them, but they're not her faves. She really likes the Jack Ryan movies and Pirates of the Caribbean. She also liked Gladiator.

Well, so far as I know, he is dead. So I would hope there are no more novels out there.

The ultimate in "ghost writer", eh?

I don't understand your comparison with Dooku, Motti? I'm talking specifically about the movies and the CW-AS. As far as I'm concerned, that's all that really exists. I don't read any of the books or online spoilers really. So Dooku was only in AOTC to me. How is his appearance in AOTC a spoiler for his appearance in AOTC? That makes no sense whatsoever. I'm asking is Grievous and the display of all he is capable of in CW-AS a spoiler? It reveals a major potential plot point for Ep 3 (how the Jedi will be slaughtered). That, to me, would be a major spoiler. Especially since not everyone is privy to that information (the episodes not being shown outside the U.S. and Canada). Wouldn't that strike you as spoiler material?

Pretty soon, Bond will be the first British Secret Agent to have lived through 6 decades and still be an active agent. That's a helluva feat.

But isn't revealing Grievous a spoiler? I'm sure they're still going to have a surprise reveal of him in Ep 3. You would have to for the millions of people who didn't see CW-AS. Can't assume they know who he is. So, in that regard, it does become a spoiler.

I'll say four of 'em. I'm thinking Red 2, 5, 7, and 11 (now that I've thought it through some more, I do remember a Red 11 signing in. At least I'm pretty sure I do).

And people think you can escape political corruption by fleeing your country for another. Buahahahahahahahahaha. It's a massive geo-political conspiracy, I tells ya!

Interest Groups. Lobbyists. Satan's Spawn. What's the difference?

That's the real Axis of Evil!
