Impressive, most impressive. That game was awesome. I too could also beat the Star Wars Trilogy game with one credit. I'm not sure if Dave & Busters still has the Trilogy games, but I had the top score on one of them.
I only cry when we find out the Jedi are supposed to be celibate. (stupid prequels) Luke was supposed to belong to me....
I agree, I missed the Ewok song. It just didn't seem right ending ROTJ without that song. No way the Ewoks are in the Jar-Jar league of annoyability. Let's face it, the Ewoks were going to cook our heroes and heriones for dinner. They may be cute and cuddly, but underneath they are carnivores.
BTW- If you play SW: Galactic Battlegrounds, and you input the cheat "SIMONSAYS" you get "Simon, the killer Ewok." And he can basically beat every level. I'd rather see Simon dancing than have him go "killer" on me.
That's the reason why there are so few of them, the people most qualified to make new Jedis are not allow to make them.
And the worst part is seeing Lando dance. BTW, I still to this day love the Ewoks. I don't understand the hatred fans spew toward them. Cool moments with the Ewoks in ROTJ include: 1) Bowing to 3P0 as if he's their god. 2) Singing as they're about to cook Han. 3) R2 zapping the Ewok in the crotch and the ass 4) The Ewok stealing the speeder("not bad for a little furball") 5) The traps set for the stormtroopers on speeders, especially the one who slams into the tree 6) The Ewoks beating the crap out of the guy in the AT-AT cockpit 7) The traps they set for the rest of the AT-ATs 8) The Ewoks being dragged by that one AT-AT 9) Using the Imperial helmets as drums at the end Seriously, why do people hate them so much? Because Clerks made it popular? Because they weren't Wookiees? Yeah, that would've made a lot of sense for the Empire to build the shield generator on Kashyyyk. Plus, we just witnessed in ROTS how weak a Wookiee battle can look. The only other popular excuse I've heard is that they're too cute, but go back and watch it again. Aside from Wicket and a couple others, the Ewoks are ugly.
I think the Ewok hate boils down to two intertwined factors, leading to one conclusion. 1. They ARE too cute. Let's face it, these things are teddy bears. They're small and furry, and in the pretty much the same dimensions as the most popular stuffed animal creation of all time. 2. This primative, weak, not-particularly quick or athletic creature completely rolls over a bunch of the Empire's Elite stormtroopers. It's absolutely absurd that these little furballs with sticks can, not only beat the Empire's best, but completely rout them. I mean how many Ewok deaths did we see on screen? I can only remember the one, but the stormtroopers on the other hand get completely stomped. And this leads to the conclusion that Lucas comprimised the believablity, and quality of the film in order to eek out a few more merchandising bucks. Either that or he has absolutely the worst, cloying, saccharine taste of all time. Which might also be true when taking into account the line [whine] But mom. You said the worst thing about this galaxy is that people don't help anybody.[/whine]
No...Lucas never said that. The media came up with that one...according to Lucas. I believe that, at one time, someone said there was enough material to cover 9 films but that comment was made in jest and not meant to reflect there would be 9 films. They have been discussing it a lot lately for obvious reasons and Lucas flat out denied it.
This exerpt from the Return of the Jedi summary is from the booklet that came with the Star Wars Definitive Collection released in 1993(a decade after the original trilogy had been completed): "Fresh from the 1981 success of Raiders of the Lost Ark, George Lucas sought to complete the 'middle' trilogy of his Star Wars saga by outdoing the previous two films in scope and pace, while resolving many of the outstanding plot issues." BTW, the quotations around the word middle were in the actual summary. I didn't add them.
