Whatever. Super Force Jedi memories or some such ****. I can live with that one. The thing that bugged me was a 9 year-old Anakin, when Obi-Wan gives you the impression that Anakin was an adult when they met.

That's because you aged 50 years in the last 19, and have dementia, dumbass.

That one I can understand. Who knew R2-D2 was going to be such a smash hit?

"These blast points... too accurate for sand people. Only Imperial stormtroopers are so precise."

Okay, we already knew that one was problematic by the end of SW:ANH. He probably didn't have a continuity database back in 76 to ensure the stuff he'd filmed a few hours earlier made sense.

That wasn't problematic at all. People think that Stormtrooper marksmanship on the Death Star shows they can't shoot... except that the entire plan was to let them escape in order to follow them to the secret base.

What about every other fight involving stormtroopers?

It is Furor. :p

In some WoW videos, though I didn't personally see any from BlizzCon (actually didn't watch anything yet, I am slacking), you'll see a Jeff Kaplan, too. That's Tigole!

Not exactly a coincidence that these guys ended up as major developers of WoW, but still kinda weird to see for some reason. Perhaps cause I remember them quite differently from these fancy pants big shot developers behind a game that makes more money than some countries. Furor mocked a name I was using on IRC once, even. :( Then to see him sitting next to Metzen, who I regarded very highly at one point in my life... just... quite a disparity!

"Furor" is the developer Alex. After he quit EQ, Blizzard signed on he and Tigole (Legacy of Steel?) to design quests and lore for WoW.

I heard something related to this on the radio on the way in to work. (Strange enough that they would be talking about WoW on the radio)

They said they know who red shirt guy is, and they'll tell you after the break, and that you will fall out of your chair when you hear who it is. Then I had to go in to work and missed the rest of it.

Ideas?

EDIT - Wait... listening to the internet stream now... they're about to say.

Oh, it's the son of one of the main guys on the morning show. ROFL.

So red shirt guy pwned furor? That may be the coolest thing ever.

What about them? They shot up the Jawas with ease. They defeated the Rebel soldiers on the Tantive IV with only 2 casualties (3 if you count the one Leia shot) and they killed an awful lot of Ewoks on Endor. In ESB they were trying to herd Luke to Vader, and the plan with Leia and Han was to caoture the Millenium Falcon again, hence the disabled hyperdrive.

I had no idea such a man exists. He needs to be fired cause he stinks at his job.


Oh, I bet he's very good at his job. The problem is Lucas himself feels no need to consult or adhere to the continuity database, and so does dumbass things like kill off Padme during childbirth, when in some other little known movie like RotJ, Leia remembers living with her mother as a toddler.

She says she remembers her mother. That's not the same thing especially when your force sensitive.

No, Taly's right, it is kind of dumb. It's just something that most people are willing to overlook on account of super Jedi Force memory.

Luke: Leia, do you remember your mother? Your real mother?
Leia: Just a little bit. She died when I was very young.
Luke: What do you remember?
Leia: Just... images really. Feelings.
Luke: Tell me.
Leia: She was... very beautiful. Kind, but sad. Why are you asking me this?
Luke: I have no memory of my mother. I never knew her.


Luke and Leia knew their mother equally. In fact, Luke would have known her for several seconds longer, being firstborn. "Died when I was very young" does not mean "Died due to childbirth."

She's lost the will to leave? What is your degree in, poetry? You sorry bunch of hippies! For God's sake! Don't use the billions of dollars of medical equipment around us. Well why don't we all just get on our knees and pray? We don't have knees, you mother ****!

Two of the strongest jedi in the order, technology that allows someone like General Grevious to exist with only a brain, eyes and a few organs to still be 'alive' and this fully functioning human just DIES ON THE TABLE? sheesh. would make more sense if Vader ripped the midicholoriens out of her body or something silly.

And after all that I just ended up saying that adding midicholoriens to the discussion made it LESS silly...
