OK guys, this is where we admit it, all us SW nerds... us guys that know more about SW than a certain dude i wish to call THE Man or Gee-ell Anyways... just how deep do you think you know SW (im not gonna boast about how much SW knowledge i've got, i mean lets face it... for all we know, THE Man may have buggered up and jus don't wanna admit it cause peeps have devoured every scrap of info possible.. and then some  )... so go on, just pop random facts or whatever ya know about star wars that you THINK other people might not know... for example...Did you know that the original lightsaber hilt was made from the remainders of a light sabber (the old flash things used for cameras around that era.. ya know the american films where they have a reporter with those flash things and they go boom ) and with the odd bit and bob added to make it look... funky  _______________ -Padawan of Virtue -Brother of Menaxia, *|irael, Krynn Adept, Majno, Ris Win Juljul, DaMi3N, Beowulf, Dash Starlight, Carrock and Yuken Zalak Bartender at Munes bar.

I have a few 1) Ewan McGregor made lightsaber noises with his mouth while duelling Darth Maul. It was noticed afterwards and removed in post production. 2) Before Natalie Portman received the role of Padmè Amidala, she hadn't seen the original trilogy ever. 3) When in a New Hope the stormtroopers come barging into the room where C-3PO and R2D2 are hiding (in the Death Star), one of them accidently thumps his head into the overhanging door. 4) to quote Ewan McGregor: Quote: Actually, I really wanted to play Princess Leia. Stick some big pastries on my head. Now, that would be interesting. 5) another funny one I discovered: Niem Numb (the co-pilot of the Millenium Falcon during Battle of Endor) speaks a Kenyan Dialect. He says to Lando in fact: "One thousand herds of elephants are standing on my foot". 6) Ewoks sing in Swedish. They really sing: Quote: "Det luktar flingor här" which means "it smells like cereal here". 7) Even David Prowse, who played Darth Vader, didn't know he was Luke's father until the opening of the movie. Director Irving Kerschner had only told him to make a fist and look angry. I love this one! 8) my favourite: I quote from Ewan McGregor himself Quote: "I used to know all the lines. Me and my mates used to watch it and we did the whole thing. Take on differet parts... I liked being princess Leia the best." _______________ Visit the Belouve Family Website! Quote: I try to have fun with my friends and try to make a difference as best I can. What does making a difference mean? Well, it can be as simple as saying hello, answering a question that seems obvious or heck, just talking. -- Vladarion

Another fact: In Single PLay on JKA, when you first start off Kyle has you run a course to train your "Core" abilities. "Abilities that all Jedi have." However in the books some Jedi are know for their lack of telekinetic abilities (Push&pull). Corran Horn's family line for example lacks the TK ability. _______________ Brother to: Tamal, Kavar, J.D.,Jermia, Devlin, Ulic, Xiabara, Seij,Tarron Mib,>>>ROCK ON .My Spacescapes art page.My Everything Else art page.

Quote: the only one who used a staff was maul. Hmm, check this quote from the official StarWars Databank m8: Kun was fixated in unleashing pure, unbridled power through ancient Sith means. He practiced Sith magic and alchemy, crafting horrific creatures on the moon of Yavin 4. He brandished a Sith lightsaber with twin blades that increased the potent weapon's lethality. His followers triggered ancient technologies that detonated the stars of the Cron Cluster, wiping out entire worlds and searing the surface of Ossus. A lightsaber with Twin blades? Thats a saberstaff isnt it?  Well anyways, he did some funky engineering on a lightsaber  |

heh, Roan, sounds like one of those things they have on TV Guide Channel over here lol Anyways, I'm sure atleast half of you know already, there is a big controversy over who shot first, Han or Greedo. In the original, it is Han, but, after much deliberation, they decided to make Greedo fire two (pretty certain, not completely) pitiful shots and Han fire the killer shot/s. They did this because Han would look like a "cold-blooded killer" if he shot first. _______________ "Do or do not, there is no try" Jedi Master Yoda Dual Saberist |
