    Ahh, it just means that caeser was originally a star wars name, that was passed down through the eras, of "our" galaxy, ;)(or more info taken from the Enterprise-E during the TPM times). It makes perfect sense.

    Lando also mentions "Saturday" in one of his books. Rather bizarre. But then, that can also be a translation error I suppose.

    No, I don't think it's an error.

    Sat. night is the best night to get the babes, especially when you have some Colt .45 with you.

    They can't be translation errors because basic = english. Just watch your copy of the ANH.

    I read the Lando books last year and don't remember "Saturday". Since I take notes, I think maybe I would have caught something like that. Anyone got a page number?

    As for the Enterprise-E, I'm pretty sure that was debunked in an Insider article on TPM easter eggs. It's another ship that looks similiar.

    ahh, sturm, I didn't know that. Could you post up the article?

    I remember in star trek, that there was an alien that looked like a twi'lek in one ep of TNG. As well there is that one species that look like boussh.

    I'll try and find the article and post it here, if it isn't a figment of my imagination. :D

    Glad you all like it. :)

    Valiento, I hope you're joking. :D

    Strum: I've read it too. I'm can't remember where, though. I do know for a fact that there were a few YT-1300s in First Contact during the battle scenes. That was in an article in ether the Insider or Star Trek: The Magazine, I can remember which.

    Val, that long post back there was one of the coolest loads of poodoo I've ever heard! :p

    But what's this about Lando mentioning Hitler? Anybody got a quote?

    Don't worry I haven't gone mad, can't you tell humor when someone see it, ;), :D.

    Actually I just got done reading marvel, series from 1-107, and I didn't see hitler mentioned anywhere that I can remember.

    As for aurabesh, one of the behind the scenes guys(as I remember) said that they based the shapes off of hebrew or arab writing(I can't remember fors sure), and changed it visually.

    Some of the letters have a similarity to Hebrew letters, but some of them also have a similarity to English letters. :mad:

    EDIT: go here to see the Hebrew Aleph-Bet. :mad:

    Well technically much of the Alphabet, is based off of Arab Alphebet, from what I can remember in history(with some added letters, and modified letters).
