grhqofb5 Posted June 16, 2016 Share Posted June 16, 2016 gr.hq.of.bS, Since you're so interested in mining and probably other forms of harvesting and dredging perhaps this Bespin career recruitment video is the thing for you! Do they offer a 401K plan? Is it a union shop? How much of the work is subject to prevailing wage law? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoCalSkins Posted June 16, 2016 Share Posted June 16, 2016 Spice mining is the lucrative industry in the Star Wars universe. Basically their version of heroin. Tibanna mining can't compete no matter how good the 401k matching the empire is willing to offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoCalSkins Posted June 16, 2016 Share Posted June 16, 2016 Lucas probably did steal it from Frank Herbert. It was a small line C3PO used in a New Hope, but the extended universe and Clone Wars went into a lot of detail on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Destino Posted June 16, 2016 Share Posted June 16, 2016 I felt that TFA had too many handy plot holes IMO. The way the saber was found in the box at Maz's place was weak. I liked the original idea that Max Sydow's character had the saber rather than a map, but for me, its like this: -Han is looking for the Falcon, can't find it for years. -Rey steals it and within minutes, Han finds it -Takes Rey to Maz's place where the lightsaber summons Rey Sure, you can say it was the will of the force, but at that point, you may as well have midichlorians running the show. Weak IMO. Those aren't plot holes, that's the hero of destiny trope. Poor kid living a simple life, suddenly caught up in extraordinary events that pushes them towards something they initially do not want, but they soon discover they are important. She even found a magic sword. Luke was the hero of destiny in the original. The robed wizard showing up to train him gave it away. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, but Obi Wan was there watching over him all along. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

“Misdirection” Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 Slightly unrelated, but for fans of books, and content that was made non-canon, this Rebels trailer will achieve the nerdgasm you've been waiting for. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grhqofb5 Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 I like that a lot That's neat. I always thought Darth Vader was a pupil of Obiwan's and that the Vader killed Anakin, according to that scene from the first SW movie from 1977. Seeing it re-cut now explains it. Guess Obiwan was being a bit coy the whole time, answering Luke's question but not really giving him "the whole truth." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't really be saying you didn't know anakin and Vader are the same person until seeing that video. Are you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was never a particularly big fan of the original trilogy, so I just was going by what I saw in EP 3 where Anakin was killed by Obiwan. Seemed logical, and then Darth Vader was Luke's father in one of the original movies too. So I just figured that Luke was not really Darth Vader's son maybe. Frankly never hashed it out, too much going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also recall having a theory that Han Solo was not really dead that caused quite a few rather passionate responses. So I did some research, and even though I may be wrong i also may be correct. See link: http://www.cinemablend.com/new/Han-Solo-Star-Wars-Future-Less-Certain-Than-We-Thought-104977.html I think the best part about these types of movies (Star Wars, Star Trek, Mork and Mindy, Starship Troopers, After Earth) is that the possibilities are endless. Your imagination can run in any direction, and you could be right. Good old fashioned fun for kids too, without all the sex and violence you see in much of the stuff out there on TV or at the Cinema.
