Andrew, how do you possibly know what would sound "Aleraanian" if we only have one other name to compare with?

I don't know - cause "Leia" shares 75% of it's letters with "Bail"? [Big Grin]

I totally agree!
Only chastize yourself when you wake up covered in someone else's blood.
Then it's probably time to quit drinking as well....


...but I digress.

Kissing your sister the way Leia did Luke is sick!

Indeed. I once woke up in a pool of my own blood, my nose had started bleeding during sleep. I didn't recognize the man in the mirror at first, then it was all "OMG WTF LOL!", as it were.

AndrewR: Anything can be proved with statistics. ;.

I would really like to see more of Alderaan, for some reason the world Princess Vespa escaped from has placed itself as a substitute for Alderaan, after all these years.

OK, after seeing rest of the Clone Wars, I'm not sure when should I be afraid more of Mace Windu... with of without his lightsaber [Smile]

Other concepts however seems kinda... funny. I mean, Trade Federation... Stomper?

Seismic Tank, yeah. I think it's a good concept, just fantastically hard to accomplish, engineering-wise.
The closest resemblance, in my opinion, is a cross between the old Sand Crawler and the Trade Federation's troop deployment ship.

They sure made Windu look great, clean form. Apparently they consulted a Wushu champion to get the techniques right.
The horisontal twirls in mid-air, very Kung Fu-ish. Mark Dacascos does it at least once in every one of his movies, if given the opportunity.

Making the Jedi/Sith martial arts a blend between the best of chinese and japanese styles was a very good decision.
I wonder if the hand/foot attacks Anakin did against Ventress were inspired, or just of "noname" style, like Kenobi's and Qui-Gon's kicks and punches against Maul.

Thoughts?

I'm curious as to whether they have martial arts consultants on Samurai Jack. Some of the stuff shown on there seems very familiar to some Wushu forms that I've seen.

If it's true, then they might have just used their experience from that show on Clone Wars. Or perhaps actually used the same consultants.

Oh, and that bit where big scary final episode bloke started spining his lightsabers around...that was just showing off.

Yes, you're despicable, and... and picable... and... and you're definitely, definitely despicable. How a person can get so despicable in one lifetime is beyond me. It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

It reminded me more of the World Devistators, from the Dark Empire comic.

A conscious design decision, most likely.

Bail is like the "John" of Alderaan, and Antilles is the "Smith". Very common names. At least that's what I've heard as an explanation.

I was under the impression that Leia thought she was a natural Organa as well. At least at first. She obviously knew *something* when Luke asked her about her *real* mother, but she didn't know anything about Anakin / Vader.

I'm thinking she knows about Padme, but grew up with with Organa's wife essentially being her mom, given that Padme apparently dies sometime early in her childhood. She knows just enought o know that Organa's wife isn't her real mom. Perhaps she's under the impression that Padme was Organa's first wife, but I don't think that will actually be the case.

To blend the ongoing topics of Clone Wars martial arts and classic trilogy character prequel goodness...

I'm looking forward to seeing the young(er) Tarkin. They did a durn good job of casting there.

And I'm hoping we see a decent fight scene with Grievous' kapoera fighting style. Yummy.

P.S. Wouldn't an "editor's starter kit" DVD set be the best version in which to release the SW movies? Let the viewer pick the story elements, takes, and subplots they want? So you can have Luke's Anchorhead reunion with Biggs, or Beru's cut scenes from AOTC? And cut out the midichlorian lines? *sigh*

Heck, I've spent many hours wandering the cut/altered scenes section of this site. Most illuminating. [Big Grin] I recommend it.
