Also how about a young Yoda? Who to play Yoda? He will probably just be a graphic now acommpanied with a puppet. I'm betting all the main scenes with him will be CGI like the Jabba scene. Also, he won't be "young." Even if the movies take place 40 years before he dies he will still be roughly 860 years old. He will probably still have all the wrinklers, no hair, etc. as he had in Empire and Jedi. Now, there may be OTHER "Yodas" running around who are younger and stuff.

Yup, "Yoda Stories." It is rather poorly put together and the characters are humerous (miniscule bodies with huge, "cute" heads) but it is fun to play. It is made by Lucasarts.

JS>how can you possibly like the new ones better? i mean, not to degrade JS>them, they're great, but the originals are still the best IMO. JS>seems like today's philosophy of Biggerbetterfastermore is taking over JS>even my beloved Star Wars.... Well, now I don't agree. I actually was around when the movies came out and can say. The new ones look superior. People you know and some on here may think they look "fake" but most people think they look outstanding. I mean, if Lucas STILL felt they looked fake he would have not released the film with them in it that way. The FX guys would have gone back and done it again and again until Lucas got what he wanted. You can't really even SEE them in the original. In the desert there is only one and it is all but a black dot in the background. They look far better now. I think the Special Editions are far superior and cannot wait for them on laserdisk.

TC>PS> IMO Hutt is only a big clan of the Jabba-creatures. TC>Then how do you explain the language of "Huttese?" Well, if you believe there even is a language called "Huttese," that can be answered by saying that is the language that Hutts speak. Nonetheless, Hutts are still not a race.

He wasn't shot. You have to be shot to die? That means Vader is still alive and so is the Emperor. Also, Luke's gunner, Dak, in the Hoth battle is alive. He just got a good shock and then stepped on by a walker. Fett is dead because he was chomped on by the Sarlacc and George Lucas said he died.

I've got a question TP>regarding it, when Vader departs the cloud city in the Shuttle, were TP>they new scenes or old ones included? Looked great though! Those were new, and where my favorite new scenes in Empire. Except for the terribly dubbed voice of Vader. In the original they show him walking and he says, "Bring my shuttle!" Kind of in a mad voice. Yet in this one he sounds like some corny guy who sat in a back room and says, "Inform my Star Destroyer to prepare for my arrival." It is extremely bad. But the scene of him walking out to his shuttle, it heading to the Destroyer, and then landing and him getting off, are all new. TP>When the Admiral of the Star Destroyer that loses the Falcon and TP>personally informs Vader, that ship looked like a Tie bomber! What TP>ever it was it wasn't a normal shuttle. That has always been like that. I was hoping they would change it for the Special Edition and make it a normal shuttle. I've always felt it looked like Vader's TIE from Star Wars.
