Rebirth of the Phoenix

With a faint whir the door slid down revealing the contents of the inside, immediately spilling out and landing on the floor not so gently was a blue-skinned alien. A flicker of red appeared as the alien opened his eyes. A single thought penetrated the alien's mind "I’m alive!!". After wea...

I think the final judge of the movie will have to be time itself. My dad made the comment to me how AOTC was similar to Empire cause Empire made you wait another 3 yrs before you got the conclusion and the news that Vader was the father and then the movie sort of just ended didnt leave a very good f...

You know its interesting I have heard from several people how AOTC didnt do as well at the theaters as it should have and how Spiderman beated the stuffing out of the movie...I guess the people forgot that Lucas limited the number of theaters that COULD show the movie and if anyone remembers TESB wa...

Yes but I am talking about the Japanese and various other groups. You see, by only talking about the Germans you make it seem like they are some kind of great evil.

Uh no sorry man I got to argue with that point. Since I myself am part German and had relatives on both sides of the war. First of all the notion that 'every soldier knew' is utter crap.

For those that dont believe Jedi can move other objects than droids or X-wings you have to remember its all relative. If I can move a car with my mind then I can move a tanker or a jumbo jet. The key problem with the Jedi when fighting all those droids on Geonosis is the huge volume of blaster shots...

I for one think the EU is for the most part quite good. While I cant stand the Black Fleet Crisis series or the Corellian Trilogy. The others most notable Zahn's are the best. I like the fact that the Thrawn trilogy did a great job bringing about the popularity of Star Wars again, if memory serves t...

I agree with what Ender said..especially the last part about the limiting factor being the person. My original point about the X-wing was meant to show the concept of scale and what Yoda said. Moving a tennis ball with the force and then an X-wing really there really isnt any difference...just in yo...

I didnt take into account that Yoda had said the Jedi were complacent. Thinking back on it now, we did see in Ep1 that Obi-Wan was using force-push a lot, however, when the Droid-Dekas (the droids with shields) came and started opening fire at the start of the movie they just stood there instead of ...

People first of all if Yoda could move an X-wing then its obviously possible that much larger objects could be moved with the Force. The reason Luke failed was because he didnt think it was possible. As for the Jedi fighting all those droids and losing...you have to concentrate with the Force and th...

What should be more interesting is the original DS and the lack of fighter support it had.
