Star Wars fans....remember jealousy is the shadow

[ikojo]

of greed which leads to the dark side....

But I wanted to share that I have one of these and I got it at the Best Buy employee discount.....which is still less than what Wal-Mart charges for it....wooo hooooo!!

I love it!

[mcscajun]

1. That was a great line...worth thinking about.

I just saw the film this afternoon. :)

[ikojo]

4. Did you just see Sith for the first time this afternoon?

Oh my! I've seen it seven times already...and want to see it some more before it
leaves St Louis.

[mcscajun]

6. Yup. First time.

And I probably won't see it again until it comes to cable.

[ikojo]

13. Cable? What about DVD? It'll go to DVD before it goes

to cable. I think cable is probably a year or so off.

Network execs, who declined to comment because they didn't want to tip their hand for competitive reasons, said the most valuable title in the package is "Revenge of the Sith" because they'd be able to start playing it as early as early as summer 2008, following the movie's exclusive pay TV run on HBO.

20. I'm still pissed at Lucas about the first trilogy release on DVD

Until he caves and releases the original trilogy on DVD, so that those of us who saw the original movie in the theatres way back when can have the movie we saw then, I'm not giving that bastard another penny in sales.

Original=the UN"improved" version, the one without extra scenes and "improved" effects.

2. fear...leads to anger....anger leads to hatred...

or something like that. Yoda KNEW they shouldn't accept anakin, and he was right!
but if Jar-Jar hadn't been such a maleable moron, it's possible none of this would have happened.

[ikojo]

3. If Mace Windu hadn't been so untrusting of Anakin

and would have allowed him to accompany him to arrest Palpatine, maybe Anakin never would have turned to the Dark Side.

8. Yep, that was major Jedi error #1 in that movie -

it was OK for Samuel L. Jackson to not trust Anakin at that point, but he SHOULD have then had some other Jedi watch over / stay with Anakin as Sam went to arrest Palpatine! The way it went down, it was like, "I know you think you've been unfairly slighted by the Jedi Council, and I know Palpatine has always been your friend, and I'm going to arrest him, and I don't trust you -- why don't you just go chill by yourself while I do it? Maybe catch a movie, get a bite to eat or somthing? O.K., see you later!" DUMB DUMB DUMB.

Major Jedi error #2 -- Ewan McGregor / Obi Wan in the fight to the death with Anakin on that volcanic planet, winning, cutting off his legs even -- exchanging a few words with him -- then WALKING OFF without finishing him off?!?! What was that? Especially since finishing off Anakin at that point would have been merciful, not cruel! Come on, he's got no legs, he's got serious all-over burns, and he's face down on magma! And don't forget, Obi Wan wasn't walking off for revenge sake - make him suffer -- his little coloquy with Anakin before he sauntered off was like "You were supposed to be the chosen one!" -- all sorry-like and everything.

(Plus, of course, how could the entire mystical Jedi Council not have KNOWN that Palpatine was a Sith Lord? Hell, even Counsellor Troi could have sensed that one!)

9. Palpatine was the perfect puppet master

I loved how everything in his character fell together. He is my favorite villain since Hannibal.

[the_spectator]

10. Yep he was pretty cool in a Zell Miller kind of way -

but I still say that the fact the Jedi Council couldn't sense all his Dark Side force long before everything came to a head makes them look pretty weak in the great mystics department.

Come on, even Troi could have told them early on (in a vaguely Eastern European / gypsy accent: "I sense ... great evil.")

[nytemare]

11. I guess the dark side is like a smell that you can't find the source of

LOL.

[ikojo]

12. Maybe because Sidious was in command of the Dark Side

he was able to do some sort of super Jedi mind trick and block the Jedi's ability to feel how involved with the Dark Side he was.

On starwars.com there are blogs that deal with all the inconsistencies within the movies.

[Arkana]

17. That was always my question.

Have someone watch Anakin--even if it's in secret--to make sure he does not follow Mace to arrest the Chancellor.

Either that, or revoke that DAMN rule that says Jedi cannot marry!

[neuvocat]

5. They're jealous because Star Trek is so much better.

[nytemare]

7. I want a Sidious saber

Those are cool looking!

[Dukkha]

18. I'm getting one

http://masterreplicas.com/customer/starwars/starwars_product_detail.php?pid=8458

I got the mini Sidious Saber. Now waiting for the 1:1 scale to ship

I also have an Anakin FX Saber
Darth Vader Saber
Stormtrooper Blaster
Sandtrooper Rifle
Biker Scout Blaster
Battle Droid Blaster

[nytemare]

19. Holy Cow $370!!!

I will have to get the small one. I will probably make a wall display in my room. I am thinking of a Green Destiny, Eowyn's sword, this...and probably one other.

[Hatalles]

14. Speaking of those cool lightsabers... watch this prank.

Voice-Changing Darth Vader Helmet + ForceFX Darth Vader Lightsaber = Comedic Gold.

That lightsaber may be his only friend for quite some time.

[LastKnight]
