Chaltab, in your first post you said that Link pwns everyone except mario, you may have miss-typed because you said the reverse in your next post, if what you meant was what you said in the second post then i guess i dont disagree

I said:I had some problems with SSBM at first, but I got used to it. Mostly it was the comparative wussyfication of Mario. He PWNS everybody except MAYBE Link and Kirby


See. I said "he" with Mario being the antecedent, "PWNS everybody" Except for MAYBE Link (Because of Link's Sword attacks. My best friend used to play as Link and he was the only one who could beat me for two years) and Kirby (Because of his really powerful up B and Down B attacks, and because he can jump six times)...

I never said Link was a hard character to play with, but he's very powerful. Mario owns him, though, because in the first SSB Link could not jump worth anything. That was fixed in SSBM and IMO makes fighting Link more interesting.

In the first game, most of the characters had something that could be abused. Link's Up B and Up A, Mario's Tornado and throw attack. Pikachu's thunder strike. These were, as you said, way toned down. Several of my SSB Mario strategies were made usless. (Mario Tornado followed by Up A is no longer Death Incarnate in the Gamecube version.)

I'm not sure where you disagree with me, though?

That is such a stupid reason, though. And for someone who likens himself the perfectionist that GL does, I'm surprised he folded to this request. That just seems so utterly inconsistent with the rest of the Jedi Order.


Well, technically story-wise, all Jedi (Younglings excluded, I assume) build their own lightsabers so Mace Windu could make his blade whatever color he wanted.

As for why Jackson wanted one... I guess only he can answer that question. Still, I think it's cool. BUt that's just me. (My Exile in KoToR 2 has a purple saber. And yes, she is female.)

I don't like how lucas changed the storyline for the original trilogy, in empire by having it hinted that vader knew all along about luke
and was hiding him from the emperor, until he was a grown man. This obviously means vader went to get Luke from the lars, and
when he found out he had gone off with kenobi he had uncle owen and aunt beru fried by the stormtroopers.


Couldn't it just be that after Luke both blew up the Death Star and fought him to recover the Kyber Crystal that Vader sort of put two and two together and realized Luke was his son, but did not tell the Empire because... Palps would want Luke to be his apprentice like in RotJ.

Ok, so I'll give you the Maggie = Lorraine thing. They just wanted to give Lea Thompson a part in the third one.



Ok, so Doc used the fuel. Fair enough.But you miss my point! There still should have been 2 cars.


There were two cars; The one the pair drove, and the one sealed in the Delgado mine. If the car in the mine was removed, it would create a major paradox and, worst case scenario, destroy the universe.
