The first Death Star took 18 years to build, and was destroyed in Episode IV, if they take that long a time to build, then how come in Episode 6 they have one that's twice as big? Albeit it was only half of one, but it was still working. Umm. What? The Death Star II was just as big as the last one. Plus the fact that by this time the Empire is as twice as big as was when it first began, and the fact that it had EVERY SINGLE enigneerin the Empire working on it. AND the fact that Palpatine was rushing them a lot, forcing them to double their efforts.

I think the 3rd trilogy should be made.
Jar Jar Binks should be a Sith Lord "Mesa gonna make you feel the powa"
Lol.

Lord Vader all the way, he isn't the terrifying in a scary way but he can do and say some heartless and terrifying stuff. Interesting enough the most terrifying he said IMO was when he was still a Jedi in Episode II to Padme about the sand people. Though most heartless thing he did would be Episode III when on a security hologram he seen ruthlessly killing the child padawans.

What's wrong with the term younglings?

I don't see anything wrong with it. I just didn't use it despite the fact it was the term used in the movie because... oh, I can't remember now.

What's wrong with the term younglings? I dunno. Nothing, I guess. But all the other titles seem so formal "Jedi" "Padawan" "Master" "Emperor" then you have "Younglings.." kind of takes the seriousness away if you get me?

I see. You do have a point there.
Although, I've always thought as "Younglings" as a reference to Padawans under the age 13.

So the mentioning of the word in RotS was probably meant to be children in general, as oppose to just young Padawans.

I don't think they're even classed as Padawans yet.

They are Padawans. They're just trained in groups before reaching 13, each group is trained by a Jedi Council Member. Once younglings reach 13, each of them will be assigned with an individual master.

Ah right. Fair enough then lol.
Are you really George Lucas or something?

Are you really George Lucas or something? Curses! Discovered! *Hides* Well, I wouldn't say I'm George Lucas. But someone I know personally might be. He's knows more about Star Wars then I do. Honestly, he's mainly the reason why I know so much. I know a lot about the Star Wars timeline, worlds, aliens and characters. But he knows Star Wars inside and out (such as all the specific names for vehicles, weapons and other technologies). He dedicates his entire brain to it. Here's a conversation (actually a lesson) when he was showing me one of his many Star Wars books: My Friend: Oh, and that's the Tenloss Dx4 Disruptor Rifle. Me: The what? My Friend: Its a sniper rifle that can disintergrate various organinc materials. Me: Oh. I mean, JESUS, is it nessacary to know THAT much?

Yeah but.. there are some people who are experts on this stuff. Some people would call it geeky, but those who do learn their alphabets, and that's about it!
I think it's really great that people can actually learn that stuff. The SW universe is gigantic, anyone who knows that much should do something SW like a game, or a book. They can certainly improve on the story of KOTOR 2.
Incidentally, a friend of mine is an expert on the LOTR universe. That's pretty big too.

Post by d3k on Jun 15, 2005 21:05:18 GMT
I didn't like it.
Don't get me wrong, I loved like 90% of it. But the whole "echoes in the force" and stuff, just.. I don't know.. it just wasn't that likeable. Especially the ending, light side Malachor 5 dies, Dark Side, Malachor 5 dies. Whoa.
Compared to KOTOR it's a rubbish ending.

Wait... Malachor doesn't well, erm, "Die" on the Dark Path. It stays intact.

Incidentally, a friend of mine is an expert on the LOTR universe. That's pretty big too. Being an expert on Star Wars or Star Trek is one thing... But an expert on Tolkien's work is indeed impressive, its very easily the most full and large fictional world ever made, anyone who knows all that is indeed ahead of all other 'geek' or 'nerd' experts. (As much as I hate that classification, I am myself what I may call an expert on the Warhammer universes.) You know, as of Ep III, Vader suddenly doesnt seem so terrifying anymore, perhaps its because you can see the person underneath it whenever you look at it now. *KAWAPPED over the head with all full works of every fantasy world*
