I don't know what that means, but they do give Biggs' death a little more gravity, with Luke shouting "Biggs? BIGGS!" when Vader frags him.

There is a scene on Tatooine before Luke meets the hero and his golden counterpart where Biggs tells him he and some of the crew of the Imperial Navy freighter Rand Ecliptic have contacted the Alliance to Restore the Republic and are going to jump ship and join the Rebels.



It was cut from the movies, so I've always wondered what it would be like, being a big fan of Biggs from the novelization (even before I was a Phil, I used "Darklighter" instead of "Srobeighn").

Nay, that scene isn't in there. Has Lucas ever released it? I wanna see that. Biggs looked like he had a cool story to tell.

Never, not beyond a few clips without audio in the background of documentaries.  I think Biggs' story is told a series of Star Wars: Empire comics.

Well that's good. It's become very clear in the last 20 years that Star Wars in now best left in the hands of people that aren't George Lucas. I don't care what he says, as far as I'm concerned, the KOTOR series is the prequel.

I love KOTOR, and was not pleased with certain elements of Episode I, but Episode III is still my favorite movie ever.  When Ki Adi Mundi died, I started crying, and didn't stop until I was out of the theatre ( I love tearjerkers).

III was the least lame of the prequels, but the Jedi getting killed was underwhelming to me. The Jedi master that survived a fight against General Grevious should not have gone done so easily, even if he was taken by surprise. And didn't Master Secura die very similarly? They deserved a more dignified death.

The guy doing the Revisited series said he was going to edit III such that the connection between Vader and Anakin is never established, making it so you can watch the movies in numerical order without Vader's big reveal being given away 2 movies ago.

From memory, I think Obi-Wan got hit because he was on strange-animal back going up a vertical wall.  Most of them were either mounted/driving or the only Jedi for miles.

Seriously, you can't love the KOTOR games too much if you're going to be disappointed with troops killing Jedi.  You've got a line of non-Jedi parties fighting Jedi.  Atton has his whole spiel about killing Jedi without the Force in II (which was one of the coolest moments in Star Wars - up there with "I just totally launched a couple hundred cloaked asteroids").

It was a very bizarre story, to be sure. But written with Neckbeard quality.

So have any of you used Source Film Maker?
Trying to learn how to use it. I can tell that it's astoundingly user friendly, but it's still a lot to figure out.

From what I understand, fluffies are not nearly as bad as Yukkuris, as far as behavior and intelligence are concerned.
