First point: Maybe Lucas wanted to establish that there were a lot of Jedi present without leaping straight into the action. Second point: Well as long as it turns out all right...

I wonder how Christopher Lee managed the fight with Yoda. George Lucas: "OK Yoda's in front of you but he's moving really fast and spinning and flipping around the place. Action!" Christopher Lee: "Err. Say that again." :p Anyways the Droidekas seriously unbalanced Episode I. I mean...

Battle of Terra: Kilrathi Objective: Destroy Earth to defeat the Terran Confederation and the end the war victoriously for the Kilrathi. Result: Failure. Terran Objective: Survive. Result: Success. Closing remarks: IMHO this battle is a success for the Confederation. The Kilrathi objective...

LOAF's lost track of some of his WC stuff :eek:

I've read that there were 100 Jedi involved in the battle on Geonosis. Since there were 10-20 still alive when Yoda showed up it seemed like most of them bought it. Though I'll admit it sure didn't look like there were 100 Jedi... And Manic the survivors survived because they were all damned...

Have you by any chance actually played Wing Commander? I know that in my experience the amount of armor my ship has often meant the difference between winning or having to replay the mission.

Dragon Lord: Did you even read what LOAF said? There's no point in blowing up a star. Firstly Confed's present tech may be insufficient for such a task. Secondly it would be immensely difficult to get the Behemoth close enough to a star in a hostile star system. Thirdly if you could...

Well there was the Marshall Plan which went a long way to rebuilding Western Europe. Japan and West Germany, heavily devastated by the war were rebuilt into economic superpowers largely because of a favorable political climate. The US needed them against communism, hence the Marshall Plan for...

First point: Um Obi Wan and Darth Maul got real close to one another. And then there's Maul doing Force Push right in Obi Wan's face. Second point: You're contradicting yourself.

What I meant was that Jango shouldn't have gotten into a fight with any Jedi. As well as doing the stuff you listed they can do Force Push and probably some other things that I haven't heard of. That's why I think its a really bad idea to get within arms reach of a Jedi. With regards to Obi...

You posted just to say that? I'm touched :o I haven't done any research on this but I get the feeling that any pro-Stalin feeling today is motivated more by a fond remembrance of the days when the USSR wasn't stagnating and was a power to be reckoned with. In this context Stalin's more...

So what you're saying is its better to stay in wartime to avoid some unemployment? And how does staying on a permanent wartime footing make it easier for the civilians to regain control from the military? The second argument is flawed. If someone loses a war, its usually not because of some...

PopsiclePete: They obviously went back for him.

Wildshot: I don't get how people can argue that Tolwyn was in the right. How could Confed be better off during the war? Millions died. Many worlds were destroyed. The Confederation itself was almost destroyed. And this is good for Confed? As for forgetting how to wage peace - we know that...

First point: Maybe Yoda didn't want to complicate any injuries his fallen colleagues had sustained by using the Force on them. Shifting the column was perhaps the safest way where the younger Jedi were concerned. Second point: It can be argued that Obi Wan was doing the buttkicking. That...

Fast food: I'm fairly certain the Romans had fast food outlets in their cities so the Americans are off the hook. AFAIK all McDonalds did was make a recognizable brand name out of it first. Obesity: You make yourself obese because you choose to eat the copious quantities that make you fat...

Blair's re-assignment to ISS was Tolwyn's failsafe punishment should Blair choose not to resign. It wouldn't have been much of a punishment had Blair's 10 year stint been as fun/eventful as his tours on various carriers. As an alternative to Blair maybe the new show could focus on another...

I don't see what the problem is. There hasn't been any copyright issue since Origin hasn't sued Volition, so why does it matter if both games are similar?

But they do - leading to a whole new set of problems over immigration. Though most of it is blown out of proportion. It is not America's fault that some human beings like eating to excess. If more people started acting responsibly we could solve a whole lot of problems in a hurry.

I'm thinkin...: Please keep in mind that when I said that Yoda used the Force to enhance his prowess, I'm hypothesizing. Also I'd be very disturbed if Yoda really was flawless... redwolf: I find the fact that you have a question mark next to WC in your profile disturbing...
