    Well, I finally got a chance to watch a DVD 9 of ANH Revisited, and I must say I'm very impressed. Adywan's definitely got some talent. The little things like adding R2 and Vader's blinking lights to replacing the crapping looking Death Star plans to the one seen on AOTC is impressive. As for...

    Well, the thing is that we have seen dogfights all throughout the SW saga, so I thought it was refreshing to see capital chip vs captial ship combat in ROTS. The Rebels were an underground resistance group, so it would make sense that there would be more emphasis on small fighters. Whereas in...

    In ROTJ, I thought that Wedge kinda lapsed into a British accent ("stay alert, we can run out of space real fast"), while having an American accent in ANH and ESB.

    Those PSAs are trippy. I actually remember watching the anti-smoking PSA when I was a kid.

    Still, it's good to see that the public is warming up to SW once again, as many of its detractors have pointed out its waning popularity with the general population since the PT was released.

    As to why Vader prevents Luke from killing Sideous in ROTJ, the novelization says that Vader felt that Luke wasn't sufficently ready to fully embrace the dark side at this point and if he killed Sideous then Luke would go and help his friends instead of becoming a Sith.

    Like Maul and Dooku before him, Grievous serves as a foreshadow of what Vader will become. Darth Maul - physical intimidation, Sidious' enforcer plus Count Dooku - a fallen Jedi, exudes class and elegance. plus General Grievous - dehumanized cybernetic organism equals Darth Vader...

    I also really liked the dinner scene in TPM. Despite the critical pounding he often gets, I thought Jake Lloyd gave his best performance in that scene.
