The whole mythification is one of the things I didn't like. The original trilogy has this whole medival aura around it. I had expected the prequels to be more epic, more legend than reality, and not simply a desmythification, picturign the clone wars as any modern war, picturing palpy's rise as hitler's in 1933. Just as a side comment what do you think of Chewie in EP III? ""We get our preliminary first draft of the script next week, which we're very excited about," says Producer Rick McCallum, who is currently overseeing the preparation of Fox Studios in Sydney, Australia. In just over two months, the stages of the motion picture facility will be the used for shooting Episode III. "We're currently on schedule to begin on or around June 30, finishing some time in September," says McCallum. Already, the crew down under has enough information from George Lucas to begin construction of environments, props and costumes. "After that George will be rewriting to a more formal first draft and will keep revising right up until the start of shooting," adds McCallum. "The story he wants to tell is firmly in his head. All the details are stored away in there, without a lot of influence from anyone else. He's been talking a lot about how this movie fits with Episode IV in some very cool and unexpected ways." It won't be until the summer (or technically, the southern hemisphere's winter) that the actors arrive in Australia, but already Stunt Coordinator Nick Gillard has met briefly with both Hayden Christensen and Ewan McGregor in the US. "Hayden is coming shortly to begin massive rehearsals, stunt rehearsals. We expect Ewan in the next 4-5 weeks. He's starting to work on all the fight sequences in the movie which I think will be extraordinary," he said. " This is out of the Star Wars Homing Beacon

Shiny lightsaber, and he could get the gungan to shut up.

mpd= Multiple personality d....? For you accusations I shall then send you to the Gungan city of New Otoh Gunga!!!!!

Could that be considered a promotion? From manicurtist to estilist?

Elegaie was not feeling comfortable with the battle. The space around him was an orgy of fire and death. Death that went off like a blaze consuming the essence. Next to him was Scathane, igoru Samos, the dark Jedi, the only one that was comfortable with death, Garth, the techexpert. Elegaie knew that he had to continue the mission. "Scathane lead us to one of those ship coming from the surface, I suspect they are slave ships. " The other man acknowledged. The mission, yes, information on the VOng, and sabotage them and rescue Iulan. "Rescue him from what" Igoru snapped into his thoughts. "From you," Elegaie answered. "Scathane?" "I'm trying to get us close enough and then attempt to piggy-back our way into the monstership!" "good, Garth?" "I doubt they will be detecting us with that many debris around, master" "There is a Jedi on board the Punisher, she aides them, to search for him." Elegaie remianed silent. "Are you certain, Igoru." "The Dark Side is more powerful, I can see throu the veils that cloud your powers." "We are docked to one of them, get into your poor slave prosoner, captive please," Scathane siad while puttin gup some dirty robes. Igoru said nothing and arrogantly he put the robes. Elegaie looked at him. The mission was already difficult enough. Perhaps Samos was only tauniting him to distract him. Perhaps. It could be possible that there was another JEdi, Elegaie was tempted to use his powers but the other Jedi would find him and he would doom his mission. he would trust Samos on this one. "hmmm, Garth those nice refugee cloths do fit you," scathane mused. "Shut up, flyboy or i'll send you to some Gamorrean den!" Garth answered. "Keep talking to me like that, and I won't share with you the latest issue of Hutt Illustrated." Garth snorted, and Samos was amused by the lack of unity in the group. "We're in." Insight came always thorugh the Force, Elegaie felt... no he knew that the JEdi on board the ship was meant to find Iulan. So it was a triple race. Samos, that Jedi and I. "May the Force be with us," Elegaie whispered. "Hopefully the Dark Side." Igoru added. OOC: SO I took my infiltration team in, Igor, Scath and Swarmer. We'll be skulking around in the ship. Hopefully without killing each other.

I agree with you SOCL on the lots of things that GL messed up with by making the prequels. That's why I started writing my own. Clones vs. Jedi, with chars that were mentioned in the EU, Nejaa Halcyon, Ylenic It'Kla, Rostek Horn. I even have a clone of Kenobi around. Even Thrawn and the Outbound Flight, Doriana, Anakin with a dad (he's dead), Palpy is the senator to Coruscant (that helps explain his anti-alien bias). GL made this new prequels out of commercial purposes, Jar-Jar's in there, because for four-years olds he's a funny char, anakin is a kid, because 10 years old will easily identify with him, kenobi's there for girls between fifteen and twenty, lightsaber, fighter and certainly padme nabierre for the rest of us. I too had heard that the cloens would be wearing fett's armor, i heard of a water planet in the movies, i heard that bespin would be there, lots of thigns simply disappeared or were altered just to attract more public, and not only sw fans who have read books, ans seen the movies zillion times. SOCL, would you start a forum like: What the prequels could have been for us to discuss any ideas we may have had for the prequels. I could do it, but I may eventually be having a monologue.

Don't know which one, but it's there. "Admiral, the Nike Shox is targeting the rear cruiser." "Send the Ties, Captain." "Pumas incoming, sirs."

That certainly wouldn't be nice. But I never considered the bounty hunters as interesting as other cahrs in the movies and in teh books too. Sure BOba was on hell of a bounty hunter, and Jango too, but I ismply didn't like¡m mandalorian armor or not.

The dark tid eduology was originally supposed to be a trilogy; with Onlaught, Siege and Ruin. While STackpole said most of Siege was in Ruin, I wonder if most of Ruin wasn't left out.

SOCL I have read VOTF and SOTP, I know that she helped Thrawn to capture Fel and hand him over to Thrawn, etc. In one of the X-Wing books you know that she was aware of the blue alien and send one officer to serve him. Thing is that if you read in between lines you'll come to the deduction that Isard, would never have been fully loyal to Thrawn. After Thrawn had defeated the Rebellion, she would have had him killed and installed her at the head. In Isard's Revenge Isard gives Krennel her opinion of Thrawn and his flaws, she rejects to call him the last hope for the dying empire. She would respect Thrawn and cooperate with him, as long as his plans matched hers, but she would never accept Thrawn as a superior.

That's probably it. Most Dark side users use it, when they are strong enough in the dark side of the Force. It's one way to focus hatred and agression, etc, into a destructive weapon. It winds up ruining fingernails ergo: Palpy had a manicurist: Jahled!!!

Sillicon-based lifeforms are a possibility, sillicone lifeforms... well... I doubt that Pam Anderson's implants would start talking to each other, or mating, or breathign of their own. I think I once was human, but that puny littl epiece of flesh if covered with lots of other implants.

I think you didn't say that I had a good point. But again few people have such a brain like mine. My point of view is obvious, I'd rather used some bytes and joke around to make the atmosphere around here nicer.

Special treatment: Elvis showing the lookalike the true extent of his blue lightning powers...

GArdulla the Hutt?

Isard was evil, completely devoted to the Emperor, Zsinj a megalomaniac moron. Both were interesting. Clone Palpy I din't like nor Roganda, or Daala, or Furgan or the Disra Triumvirate, my personal worst mad guy is Hethrir from the Crystal Star.

Well since the VOng decided on reopening some of the trade routes we must take advantage of that and implants and some biotech stuff is the only thing we can sell...

I don't like TNG that much, wasn't that entertaining, nor appealing. It lacked some humor, good humor not just stupid jokes in between. Voyager, well, after killing Mon Mothma Captain Janeway would be next... She and her stupid Vulcan. Haven't seen enough of Enterprise to form an opinion, and DS9 was ever doomed for failure. SW series? perhpas like miniseries for some books, other as movies... That ewoks thing and the droids series, they count more as a children show than sci-fi.

THose queens don't have Yuuzhan Vong!!!!

No, that was Raith Sienar, Lemelisk was the desginer of the superlaser, though.

What's the next spin-off gonna be?

Rjiuvan Shai and Iulan S'Tor, the only possible God for the Yuuzhan Vong sat one in front of another. The center of attention was the game that Iulan had showed him, Dejarik. The one in front of the two different creatures was made out of coral pieces and one shiny hard carpace of some crustacean. "This game is a tribute to war," Rjiuvan spoke solemnly as he moved another piece. "It's a tribute to wisdom too," Iulan answered as he moved yet another piece to another spot occupied by one of Rjiuvan's figures. Gently he retired that coral figure. The figure he used was now endangered by another figure of the Yuuzhan Vong. "And death," the Yuuzhan Vong Warmaster added, as he thought over another move. He moved the figure with his human hand, and retired one of Iulan's figures, the same that had supplanted Rjiuvan's own. "Sacrifice too," Iulan commented lightly, he moved a figure and supplanted again the other figure. "Is it useful to battle over the same spot?" Iulan asked as the Warmaster prepared his nex tmove. "Is that spot the key of the battle? Is a single factor necessary to win a war? A single man powerful enough to change the tide of a battle?" Rjiuvan moved his figure to another part of the gameboard. "And a God?" Iulan moved a piece offensively, leaving a gap open but slashing at Rjiuvan's defense. Rjiuvan did not answer immediately. "A God himself can answer that question." Rjivan reinforced his defense while positioning one piece to take advantage of the gap. "A God is beyond battle, beyond the win or lose. He is part of the pain that each side endures." "Is your God then the Force or Pain?" "Can't it be both?" "Alone one can be your master, Iulan; even a God must acknowledge them." Iulan moved another piece. "One master?" "One move too," Rjiuvan replied and Iulan turned his gaze to the gameboard. "I could move one piece and end the game, but that last move is forbidden, because of dertain rules," Iulan said. There is no possible move for me then." "After a long battle, and then lose because there are rules that forbid victory?" Rjiuvan spoke passionately but calmly. Iulan said nothing. "Eventually you will have the power to alter rules," Rjiuvan moved Iulan's piece. "Even so, I will lose my most valuable piece." Iulan said and moved the warmaster's piece. Rjiuvan reacted to the deceleration. "We have arrived at this new planet," Rjiuvan reported. "There are no enemies, as you suggested. The question is if this is the key spot, or just one more distraction in the gameboard." "We move pieces in the gameboard, while we too are moved, who moves us and who moves the One that moves us?" Rjiuvan asked. Iulan said nothing. " "

From the Screaming Eagles and the whole paleontology down to some office, answering the phon...

I never liked the mandalorian armor, nor the Fetts for that matter.
