Does everyone honestly think this is the last movie?  Cause they're wrong.  7, 8, and 9 will come out.  You just have to wait.  And 8 is going to be fucking awesome, I can guarantee that.  After that, the trilogy of trilogies will be complete and the master may once more arise from the darkness, recover his throne, and set upon this world a plague the world has never seen before!

@Bendersbud: A master is still a knight. Simple.

[Reply #282 on:]

To elaborate, they are the order of Jedi Knights. Master is a rank within the order.

I wonder when Lucas dies will someone buy the rights and make 7, 8 and 9 or something?

Wonder what the TV series will be like.

Aggh, the films are all over, I'm slightly depressed by that. 

[Reply #284 on:]

Lucas will have the films made.  That is a guarantee.  Time is the only factor, but they will be made.

[Reply #285 on:]

When I was in fourth grade my friend said he was going to buy the rights to Star Wars.

I was thinking, after this, maybe Lucas would do some of the major storylines of the books into several movies, and cram about 4 storylines into like 2 1/2 hours of movie?

You never know.
Remember Ewoks.
Remember.

Who said Tarkin was CGI in ROTS?
imdb says he was played by Wayne Pygram.

[Reply #287 on:]

I heard they brought back the guy who played him from the dead and made him wear a mask.

[Reply #288 on:]

Embarrassing fact: I discussed with my parents in the car today why Ewoks suck so much.

I can really sum this up in one rhetorical question:
"What Kind of being would revere or respect C-3PO?"

I want a Halo patch to replace grunts with the Harmless Endoran Half-wookies.

Try Star Wars Battlefront.  Just watch out for those log traps, or you'll find out just how "harmless" the Ewoks really are.

[Reply #290 on:]

Or alternatively, how badly made Imperial AT-STs really are.

[Reply #291 on:]

Ewoks suck, but are cooler than Gungan.

Jawa's own them all, Go Jawa!

[Reply #292 on:]

I have a question.

In Episode 1 (i think) someone mentions a senator Antilles, would this guy be related to Wedge or something?

[Reply #293 on:]

Apparently not.

Lucas uses the name a lot.

Antilles is supposed to be the Star Wars Galaxy's equivelent of 'Smith.'

[Reply #294 on:]

Possibly, if he was Corellian. Though Wedge's Parents ran a space version of an ESSO and were killed by Pirates. Wedge's Dad's dad must have screwed up big time.

Interestingly enough, there is an Antilles and a Dadonna both mentioned in KOTOR. Both are part of the Republic Fleet. 

[Reply #295 on:]

Star Wars has become Star Trek in a sense.  It is a franchise that will be endlessly pumping out new incarnations of itself for decades to come.  That said, I can't wait till The Quest for Endor, a sequel to a less popular and not quite as well known other film, comes out!

On the subject of merchandise i ordered all 3 of the Star Wars Galaxies yesterday! they should be here on saturday! Yay!

[Reply #297 on:]

Jerkbird, report to the WoW thread over.

[Reply #298 on:]

@Jurkburd: Yeah, Bail Antilles.

@Slacky: "Bail" is probalby the "John" of the SW universe, and "Antilles" is the "Smith".

My KOTORiginal character was a female scoundrel/guardian light sider called Leira Antilles.

What was that cool looking planet where Aayla was gunned down?

[Reply #301 on:]

So, I watched Send in the Clones on TV last night.  It wasn't as bad as The Pantomime Menace, but it was still full of stuff that contradicts the original trilogy.

Also, is it just me, or is Christopher Lee playing the same part in these movies that he played in Lord of the Rings?

[Reply #302 on:]

Send In The Clones?

Alternate name of "Attack of the Clones"...there's a (sorta) famous song called "Send in the Clowns" (originally sung by Judy Collins, but Sinatra did a version)

[Reply #304 on:]

Heh, maybe he was thinking of the Simpsons halloween short (which, incidentally, I always thought should have been called "Attack of the Clones" ).

Personally, I prefer to call AOTC "Attack of the Midichlorians".

GL took all that he wanted to happen in 7, 8, and 9 and put it in ROTJ.

BTW, Aayla met her end of the planet Felucia on a mission to rescue Bariss Offee. At least she died in a beautiful place.

No, I was alluding to the song that Delta-V mentioned.

None of you guys noticed what I called Episode One?

He looked different, but he was pretty much the same character.  I was half expecting Obi-Wan to break his lightsaber and leave him locked in a tower with Brad Dourif.

[Reply #310 on:]

Do you mean to tell me that The Pantomime Menace isn't a real movie? 

[Reply #311 on:]

Oooh, we really need some spoofs at this point. Something like Spaceballs, must with more humour and less cheese in it.

[Reply #312 on:]

We don't need any spoofs of Episodes One and Two.  They do a pretty good job of making fun of themselves.

[Reply #313 on:]

That is the challenge though.

[Reply #314 on:]

I think A Lost Hope covered our hilarity needs pretty well...and people have been making Star Wars spoof trailers since the release of Empire.  Anyone ever seen Hardware Wars?

[Reply #315 on:]

No, but I'd love to watch the guys who did ALH spoof all three Prequals.

The guy who does Darth Vader is hilarious in those things.

[Reply #316 on:]

Yes.  Also Thumb Wars.

[Reply #317 on:]

Troops is my favourite spoof of all time.

[Reply #318 on:]

I figured.  The inspiration for Gamma Company, perhaps?

[Reply #319 on:]

Talking about Thrawn in the trivia thread reminded me of one of my questions.  Do you think they decided to go with the whole Zahn (I think) idea that clones are somehow "wrong" with the Force, and that's why the Jedi were so slow in reacting to their treachery?
