Oh, so I am not the only one who thinks the Executor's collision with the Death Star looks strange? Good.

I find it funny that there are already reviews up. And that the three all have average ratings of two stars.

So, I guess we're not sending the discs back in one package? We're just each going to send them separately?

Of course you should send them separately. We're being forced to purchase them separately, after all.

I myself am still undecided on whether I should buy them or not. The SE discs could always function as coasters or frisbees.

[IMDbs it.]
Is Hootkins (Porkins) one of the guys who comes to see Indiana at the university in the beginning of "Raiders"? I can't remember the character Major Eaton.

You might be unlucky though, and the Kaminoans might clone it instead.

From SW.com:

Though outwardly polite, the Kaminoans foster an intolerance of imperfection. They see such flaws as potential poisons to an ideal gene pool. They closely monitor their cloning projects for any deviations in biochemistry, subjecting wayward clones to extensive conditioning to pull them back in line.

I highly doubt the Kaminoans would want to clone something as bad as the PT. Or, they would make it better before they did.

Then have the new Emperor, while looking crossly at the person who spoke up, unscrew the lid of a salt shaker and pour it onto Anakin's body... then walk on.

lmao.

I believe they are talking about Tibanna gas mining. I don't know all of what they say, but that's what they're discussing.

I agree. When I was in the theater, I was like, "um, shouldn't they cover him up?" I mean, I know it was probably for effect or something, but come on. You'd think the people of this hi-tech civilization (or at least George) would know better.

I love the alternate Binary Sunset, too. I wouldn't mind seeing-- er, hearing it in another movie.

The bonus Forest Battle is fun.

One part-- not a line-- that gives me goosebumps is when the Rebel fleet enters hyperspace. There's something exciting about seeing all those ships going to lightspeed at the same time.

His son is the young Jedi on the landing platform that Bail is on that takes out a few Clone troopers before he is shot in the chest.

Oh, so that's the point of that scene-- to give Luca$' son his screen time.

1. You often make the Darth Vader breathing sounds.
-Not often, but I have.

2. Someone you know thinks you are way too obsessed with Star Wars.
-Probably.

3. The next time you buyalcohol, you plan to say the following, even if you are not asked to show your ID: "You don't need to see my identification. I'm not the underage drinker you're looking for. I can go about my business. Move along."
-Should try that sometime.

4. You've seen trash cans that look like R2D2
-No, but I have seen CD players.

5. You listen to the Star Wars soundtracks more often than you listen to any other music
-SW, no. JW, yes!

6. During a conversation, someone says a word (ex: stench) and you start quoting Star Wars because of it.
-What an incredible smell you've discovered!

7. You often say "I have a bad feeling about this."
-Yep.

8. You think anyone who doesn't know that Vader is Luke's father has serious issues
-Where have they been, the cultural morons??

9. You've dressed up as a Star Wars character for Halloween
-No, but I should sometime in the future.

10. You've called someone a nerf herder
-...I think I have.

11. If you have them recorded from when they aired on TV, you have all the commercials memorized.
12. The Han-Jabba scene and "Jedi Rocks" serve as commercial breaks.

1. You refer to the original Star Wars as “Star Wars” and not “A New Hope”
Actually... no.

2. You’ve seen each OT film at least 10 times.
Yep.

3. You can play the entire movies in your head and have most if not all the lines memorized
Yep.

4. You have seen the Holiday Special
No, but I would like to see if it really is as bad as everyone says.

5.You own a laserdisc or dvd transfer version of the O-OT.
I wish. We do have recordings from when they aired on USA one time, commercials and all.

6. You hate the changes to the OT, but you own the special edition and 2004 DVD anyway.
SE, yes. 2004, no.

7. You rarely, if ever refer to SW, Empire and Jedi by their episode numbers, but you do so with the prequels.
Yes! And it annoys the heck out of me when people call the OT by episode number.

8. You blame any and all plotholes on the prequels and NOT on the original films
Of course.

9. You think the special effects from the O-OT are much more believable than the cgi stuff from the special editions and prequels.
Some yes, some no.

10. You’ve cringed at three or more special edition changes while watching the movies.
YES.

11. When you watch the updated versions, you often yell at the TV.
YES.

12. Han shot first, end of story.
That's right.

13. You hate most or all of the OT changes, but wouldn’t mind seeing changes made to the prequel trilogy
Hmm... why not?

14. You know what O-OT, OT, PT and ILM stand for.
Of course.

15. You prefer puppet Yoda to CGI Yoda.
Yes.

16. You love and hate George Lucas.
Yeah.

17. When watching the updated versions, you can point out every tiny minsicule change that was made. Yep.

18. You wish the prequels looked and felt more like the OT.
Yes.

19. You would pay over $20 (per film) to see the O-OT on the big screen.
Oh yeah.

20. You think the cgi changes made to the O-OT did little or nothing to enhance the films.
That's right.

My first post here... yay.

The way I see it, Palpatine came to the Jedi Temple after Anakin killed everyone there. But the hologram-within-a-hologram theory seems reasonable as well.
