[WingMan13]

where was Tarkin?.

He had a very quick non speaking scene when Vader walks up to the bridge with the death star in the back ground. He was on the Emperors left hand side. No close ups, too bad cause from far he really looked like Tarkin!

And what's the deal with Leias statement in ROTJ that she remembered her real mother?

Yep, they didnt really cover this in the movie. The book goes on to explain that Padme and Leia had a brief force connection when she was born, kind of like the one she had with Anakin when they where in seperate buildings.

I gotta see it again to let some things sink in. Plus I gotta look for all the back ground stuff. Anyone else catch the Millenium Falcon or Lucas in the movie? It was in there!

I didnt see it. Was is supposed to be in there?

It was there, landing into a hangar. I'm not sure if it was supposed to be the actual Falcon or a Corellian ship of the same make. It could have been one of those things that the digital guys like to throw in for fun.

well that settles that
I have to see it again

I thought the movie rocked.

Unlike all of the others, there is not one scene that I would fast-fwd through. Probably the fastest 2 & 1/2 hrs youll ever live through.

Im sure all of thsoe deleted scenes will make an appearance in the DVD.

I was pissed that Tarkin didn't even have a line. That's Wayne Pygram, aka Scorpius to Farscape Fans.

I also found the Leia remembering Padme inconsistancy annoying. You can only explain things in the books so many times before it becomes a eally big distraction. In some ways it woudl ahve made more sense if Leia was delivered first, and Padme died before Luke was.

No, I looked for both but didn't see them. I liked Lucas's son as the young Jedi who dies in front of Bail Organa.

[WingMan13]

I guess theres only so much Lucas can fit into the movie. I for one could have sat through a 4 hour movie Can't wait to see what scenes will be on the DVD.

I didnt see Mon Mothma? Anyone see her? I know they made a action figure of her.

i thought i saw the falcon,.....looked darn close to it

[Glickman]

i think the book when qui-gon takes obi as his apprentice shouldve been made into a movie. it wouldve been 100x better then the first movie.

I dressed up as a Jedi at work today. (Yes, I know. )

Can we see a pic??

yeah, except it would not have told the tale of how Annikan became Darth Vader... which is essentially the point of the first 3 episodes....

That's just a Correllian YT1300 Freighter. The Falcon is a specific and heavily modified YT1300.

better story

All I can say is friggin' awsome, although it leaves me somewhat conflicted Now what do I have to look forward too, I've seen all 6 in the theaters (only way to truly see them) LOTR has drawn to a close. They are doing a pretty good job at butchering the Harry Potter series, and the new Chronicals of Narnia seems a little too kiddie to me. I'm at a loss.



As far as the Leia scene in jedi, my wife mentioned it too as we were leaving. The only conclusion I could draw (having not yet read the book and know nothing of extra scenes) is that where leia was raised as an Organa she may not have known anything about her real mother and was refering to Bails wife (whatever the hell her name was) before knowing the truth.


maybe a spoiler below
I did like the end where c3po and r2d2 were given to Capt. Antilles ("have the protocol droids memory wiped") kinda clears it up for me as to how these two who have been there from the first one didn't have a clue who ob1 was and that the name skywalker meant nothing to 3po, well it does also make r2s ranting in ANH a little more amusing
