Oh, yeah, man. Those were some good times. Everytime I reloaded the page Sessler had already replied to everything I had said. (It was the curse of 56k) but we kept posting anyway. Heh.

Please, Chaltab. Tell us about your girl situation (or lack of).


You really wanna know? OK. *takes deap breath* Well. I really liked "Leia" for years and years (Actually it's more like years and a year since it was only three, but who is counting?), but Leia did not return my feelings "beyond friendly" and when I asked her to the prom she politely said "no" (if that were possible) and... so then I tried asking her friend "Padme"... but there was the fact that they were friends even though I didn't know it when I first felt attraction for Padme (Which isn't her real name, and neither is Leia, but I am protecting their identities, OK?)... and I assume they thought I only asked Padme to the prom to spite Leia even though that wasn't the case, and even though me and Padme had been friends, after the prom, where she stood me up after saying she'd save me a dance, she would just ingore me and continuied to do so throughout the end of school--except now it is summer and I haven't talked to either Leia or Padme all summer even though I still have feelings for Leia but no longer any for Padme: I've forgiven her for standing me up, but I don't like her anymore despite having forgiven her and I still do like Leia since at least she was honest... and this is the mother of all run-on sentences isn't it?


that happened to me too, dont feel bad about it. chalts you just need to give-her and call up leia, and be like whats up lets go for coffee.

i am not saying its impossible, i am just saying that it is extremely hard, and that alot of fans dont realize just how hard it actually is to make a good storyline. i feel that alot of them under estimate the task.

Interestingly enough, the novelization makes it clear that the Empire was under the control of Palp's Force abilities, which would explain its machine-like efficiency. After Palps is killed, the armies, which were too dependant on this control, fall into disarray, and are able to be overcome by the Republic forces. (A very similar concept was used for the droid armies in TPM.)

While the movie doesn't touch on this, you may notice that the Republic doesn't start kicking butt until after Palps is killed.
This is also reflected in the Zahn trilogy (cannot remember which book...think its the first). Palleon talks about the disarray at the Battle of Endor with Thrawn, and Thrawn suggests that it was the death of the Emperor that caused it...that he was subtly controlling all the various ranking officers through the Force. Palleon doesn't believe it, saying it was because they lost the Executor and the shield went down.

I think it was in context to why they need the C'Baoth clone...C'Baoth could control the crews of ships suffering from the double-blind effects of the Imperial Cloak, allowing greater coordination.

yep you are correct, all this is in thee thrawn trilogy.

you can always post on internet forums...you can probably get a good 20 posts in if you try hard, actually that would probably be a low number for you

Since when are Chaltab's posts good posts?

ok i am replying to your post in reverse order, bottem to top.

first your right hate is a strong word, i meant dislike, but there will always be those that do hate them, i.e. kam and fans own the trilogy.


your right, i like how u used sports example for me since u know i am sports buff that was nice of you. but your right having that sort of attachment to a sports team is bad too. if you are puting your heart and soul into it. its ok to a certain extent but there is a line. and this same thing applies to movies too, there is a line, and all to often fans will cross it blindly.
