	looking back when i was young all i remembered was jabbas sail barge (inside it when it was dark) C-3PO talking to the thing with 1 eye, luke walking through the passage to jabas place, yoda talking and the final duel (all mainly in ROTJ) i thought tatooine was earth and thta jedi were the pilots -----signature----- "If you're not with me, then you're my enemy" "The force will be with you...always!"

	When I first saw ROTJ I thought that Luke's hand actually turned black from the darkside because he cut off Vader's hand. I thought that whatever piece of Vader Luke cut off, the darkside would consume that part of Luke's body. I thought Darth Vader was black because he killed so many people and was consumed by the darkside. Unfortunately, I did not realized that Luke was wearing a black glove for almost the entire movie until I was a few years older and watched it on video.

	When I was really young, I thought the Star Destroyer in the opening scene of ANH was Leia's ship (6 year old logic dictates that the good guys would have the better ship). When they captured the corvette, Vader turnred the tables and overtook the Star Destroyer. I remember thinking, "Wow, this guy is good!" -----signature----- "Talent does what it can, genius does what it must."

	Well, these aren't really misconseptions, but scenes I thought I remember seeing as a kid. In ANH I remember a scene after they take out the stormies on the falcon, but before they take over the docking bay control room, where Luke and Han find a rack of stormtrooper uniforms and put them on. I also remember seeing luke inside an AT-AT. Right after he slices open the access hatch he climbs in, sets charges like those used in ROTJ, then jumps out. I don't know where I got these scenes from. They must have been dreams or something. -----signature----- "What an incredible smell you've discovered"

	When I saw the Leia scene in ANH with the torture droid, I thought Vader was giving her vaccines. -----signature----- "If, drunk with sight of power, we loose, / Wild tongues that have not thee in awe, Such boastings as the Gentiles use,/ Or lesser breeds without the law, Lord God of hosts, be with us yet,/ Lest we forget--Lest we forget."

	Mine is not really a misconception, but I think it's amusing enough to be added here. My very first exposure to Star Wars was on the school bus, reading the comic book over a friend's shoulder. He showed me the panel where Ben gets vaporized (which is much more intense in the comic than the movie, btw). So when my mom finally took me to see it (at about age 9, I guess, I kept repeating to her "Ben's going to die soon. This must be where Ben dies, etc." over and over from the moment he first appeared 'til it actually happened! Ah, my theater neighbors must have ADORED ME! Also, I used to forget whether some of the action figures I'd collected actually appeared in the movie or not, or if they were "extras" (EU, for example) that weren't really featured. I distinctly remember going to a re-release and wondering if the whole Greedo scene was something I'd actually SEEN or if it was something in my imagination. Imagine then my pleasure at realizing it really was in there. DH

	when i was around 7 yrs old i thought that star wars and indianna jones were the same thing. One night when I was watching the temple of doom with my dad i finally asked him when the part with the giant slug (jabba) was coming.

	Not really a Star Wars misconception, but I used to think EU only meant anything that happened after ROTJ. -----signature----- XBL name= JWicked Now playing: COD 4 Crackdown Rock Band

	Well, I thought when I was a kid that EpI-III were already written, and someone told me they were written in a yellow book. So I looked in the library for all the old yellowed books -----signature----- "If you will not be turned... you will be destroyed!" - Palpatine

	My friend once told me that his older brother told him that Luke was a robot. He didn't believe him at first but after his brother showed him the scene where Luke got a new hand and you could see the wires inside he cried. -----signature----- I'm Jesus with a laser gun, and YOU'RE GOING TO HELL! ~ Scud One Year!
