ShinIchiro Posted September 20, 2004 Posted September 20, 2004 God your a miserable fn lot here ain't ya!! <_< <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Because I think that Jar Jar is the worst thing to happen to Star Wars since the Greedo shoots first incident? I think you made an overstatement there. I just don't see Naboo offering much to the story, especially since the only things it is known for in the SW universe is Padme and Jar Jar. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Well, it was part of the prequels, which were so much different from the trilogy in quality and style they're almost a seperate theme. Plus, I don't count them as SW. SW is in the hands of the books now. EP 3 might be the prequel, but I don't know yet. It probably will have to qualify as the prequel to EP 4-6, no matter how bad it is.
Child of Flame Posted September 20, 2004 Posted September 20, 2004 IS Naboo gonna be one of the planets? cause from what I see would have alot to offer IMO <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Ummm...no....just no... I don't think Naboo has even been mentioned as a possiblity... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> O Bog, please just let me forget that planet even exists. <_< <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It was in the prequels, thus it isn't part of SW. That better? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> <tear comes to the corner of my eye> Thank you.

DAMN YOU LUCAS!!!
ShinIchiro Posted September 20, 2004 Posted September 20, 2004 What I'm wondering is, Why the hell did they try to turn the SW movies into Cute Little Kiddie films?

DAMN YOU LUCAS!!! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> That's why I believe that one scene ruined two things about the characters. Not only does it lessen Han Solo's speed and accuracy with a blaster, but it also makes a good bounty hunter look like he has the worst aim in the galaxy.

Child of Flame Posted September 20, 2004 Posted September 20, 2004 What I'm wondering is, Why the hell did they try to turn the SW movies into Cute Little Kiddie films? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Actually, that started along with the 'Greedo Shoots First' incident inside the Mos Eisley cantina on Tattooine in the Special Edition films. If you've seen the original, you know that when Obi slices that one d00d's arm off with his glow stick of death, there's blood.....in the special edition, instead of blood, there's a cauterized severed limb. Now, while this admittedly makes more since when you realize that the way a Lightsaber cuts is by burning......I guess Lucas thought a charred severed limb was less violent than a bloody one?

GhostofAnakin Posted September 20, 2004 Posted September 20, 2004 The series was ruined for me (or atleast tainted horribly) the moment Greedo shot first. Then, of course, the addition of that useless character Jar Jar Binks and the fact the prequels lacked that...."feel"....to them that the original trilogy had. Although to be honest, I don't actually hate the prequels. I've got them on VHS and I've watched them (TPM and AotC) numerous times. It's just that if I had to choose which were my favorites, I'd go with the OT.

steelfiredragon Posted September 20, 2004 Posted September 20, 2004 did they say 7 new planets, or 7 planets???? Strength through Mercy Head Torturor of the Cult of the Anti-gnome
GhostofAnakin Posted September 20, 2004 Posted September 20, 2004 did they say 7 new planets, or 7 planets???? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> If I recall from magazine previews and interviews, 7 planets in total. So I'm guessing some are new, some are old, but they add up to 7 in total.

jedipodo Posted September 20, 2004 Author Posted September 20, 2004 @Nur Ab Sal: What planet is shown on the image from your comic gallery? I'm just asking because it has some similarities with the city on this screenshot (execpt for the red sky). "Jedi poodoo!" - some displeased Dug S.L.J. said he has already filmed his death scene and was visibly happy that he
Nur Ab Sal Posted September 20, 2004 Posted September 20, 2004 That's Great City of Iziz on planet Onderon, my friend. HERMOCRATES: Nur Ab Sal was one such king. He it was, say the wise men of Egypt, who first put men in the colossus, making many freaks of nature at times when the celestial spheres were well aligned. SOCRATES: This I doubt. We are hearing a child's tale.
jedipodo Posted September 21, 2004 Author Posted September 21, 2004 Poodoo! Not a new planet... "Jedi poodoo!" - some displeased Dug S.L.J. said he has already filmed his death scene and was visibly happy that he
jedipodo Posted September 25, 2004 Author Posted September 25, 2004 I'm not sure about new planets. But I do think that you've got just about all the planets figured out. I was looking at a list in another post that theorized what the remaining unknown planets might be, and that list contained the rest of them... it contained some that were wrong too, of course. -Akari <{POST_SNAPBACK}> So, then let us cross out two of them and it would have to be right... That makes 5 confermed worldsPeragus Telos Dantoone Duxn Onderon So there are only 2 left with 4 reasonable candidates: Nar Shadda (NAR, screenshots) Haruun Kal (HAR) Coruscant (the mention of the empty jedi temple) Korriban (Revan disapeared there) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> "Jedi poodoo!" - some displeased Dug S.L.J. said he has already filmed his death scene and was visibly happy that he
Nur Ab Sal Posted September 25, 2004 Posted September 25, 2004 Let's hope that we won't witness Korriban again. KOTOR Korriban sucks. HERMOCRATES: Nur Ab Sal was one such king. He it was, say the wise men of Egypt, who first put men in the colossus, making many freaks of nature at times when the celestial spheres were well aligned. SOCRATES: This I doubt.

GhostofAnakin Posted September 25, 2004 Posted September 25, 2004 Has Mr. Lucas ever explained why he wanted that perticular scene changed? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I heard (although just from rumor) that it was because he didn't want Han portrayed as a bad guy shooting first. This way, Han kills Greedo in "self defense". I don't know how much truth there is to that rumor, but it certainly sounds like the kind of logic GL would come up with.
