    Does anyone else get mildly irritated upon seeing C3PO hanging onto that massive droid in the battle droid construction factory on Geonosis in AOTC?
    Since When could that C3PO that we know hang onto ****?!

    Yeah, that scene was one of the dumbest in AOTC.

    And has anyone seen the EU fans desperately scrambling to fit the DS in AOTC with EU? Fragging priceles.. [face_laugh]

    Both probably. He pulls it out of the drawer every year. Along with 110%, 'early doors', and 'if in doubt, give it some altitude'.
    Soz, will try and keep footy to the world cup thread in future.

    Yeah.
    I'm fed up at work.
    I'm the only SW fan, and everyone else in the dept. says I'm sad and they all think that Oceans 11 is a better film than AOTC.
    Grrr.

    Also, why does Jabba look fat and lazy in EP1, small and mobile in EpIV SE, and fat and lazy in EpVI. Does anyone else think the SE were crap compared to the original ones.

    "back post" and "put the reducer on" him are 2 of my fav's

    and back to star wars they never should have bothered with all that Jedi spirtuality rubbish and as for those laser swords...

    Oh 'the reducer', how could I forget, i.e. 'chop him up'. And he uses 'back stick' as well. Its a wonder you can hear him anyway, what with all the jangling jewellery.

    I liked the SE's... though it coulda done without the Jabba bit at the start. I kinda preferred the idea that Jabba was in his palace and sending all his minions around to find Solo...

    SEs - SW was ok, but some of it was really false. Like the smashed up sandcrawler. There put rendered bits of metal amongst the debris. It looks terrible. The DS bit is good though. ESB SE works well. But ROTJ... ugh. The old Jabba's palace band and music was better than that CGI rubbish. Thank god they didn't mess up the rancor - I liked it cheap. The sarlacc looked poor I thought, and the Endor celebration sequence was woeful. I hate criticising SW but I do prefer the originals.

    I liked the approach to Mos eisley in Star Wars and the Wampa and Cloud city bits in ESB but I hated the CGI in ROTJ. The music bit in jabba's palce was cack.

    I disliked the SE. I thought it was a liitle pointless..apart from the touch ups of cloud city in ESB..the rest was just another way to get money out of our pockets..

    Nah. Course not.
    Fact that people charge £30 for a signed photo of the geezer that plays the 'gonk' droid in the sandcrawler (who are ya, who are ya). We're not gullible...

    In the Rogue Planet novel, Sienar designs something similar to the Death Star.

    What must of happened is that Tarkin gave the plans to Sidious,who then gave Bevel Lemelisk the rights to construct and redesign it. They probably made their base of operations on Geonosis and had the geonosians construct it.

    If the Trade Federation did it, why not Bevel Lemelisk?
