He was just trying to bring peace to the galaxy. Alderaan was supplying the Rebels, it had to go.

He had Stormtroopers based everywhere to police crime - like the murder of poor Greedo and Obi Wan chopping off a man's arm in a simple bar fight. Were the Jedi doing things like that before the rise of the Empire?

What the kriff did you just skrogging say about me, you little Schutta? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Sith Lords, and I’ve been involved in numerous secret raids on the Jedi Order, and I have over 300 confirmed jedi kills. I am trained in Sith sorcery and I’m the top duellist in the entire Banite order. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the kark out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before in this galaxy, mark my kriffing words. You think you can get away with saying that fodder to me over the Holonet? Think again, sleemo. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the core worlds and your transmitting location is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You’re farkled kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my sith lightning. Not only am I extensively trained in lightsaber combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the Confederate Navy and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable pooder off the face of the galaxy, you little fodder. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your skrogging tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you sithspitten idiot. I will unleash unlimited power all over you and you will drown in it. You’re farkling dead, kiddo.

Then you have shit taste. I'd love to see something smaller and more personal. A lone hermit on Tatooine could get up to some interesting stuff. I'd like to see something that's mixing the christian desert fathers with Six-String Samurai and the adventurous tone of Kurosawa films.

That'd be good, but like many of the expanded universe tales the fact that it keeps regurgitating the exact same characters is keeping it down from being great. I think introducing new characters would be a good idea, maybe they'd die towards the end to keep continuity but Obi would benefit from a story that allowed him to slip into the wise old man role and take Luke as apprentice. Because being the one who taught the biggest space asshole the ways of the force who helped to kill all his friends must've left a mark. Not saying they should go full serious mode with that, just that it would make a good central theme.

Wacca T'Bacca was a Wookie Jedi Knight who was known for his love of D'weed, a herb native to Dantooine, smuggled to Mos Eisley in bulk quantities and processed into a variety of spices and liquid quintessences. T'Bacca used a special vaporizing device in the hilt of his pipe-shaped lightsaber to inhale D'weed smoke, and proudly wore D'weed containers on his bandolier, often surprising would-be attackers by pretending to fall into a trance-like state with the pipe end in his mouth, so that they would get closer only for them to be impaled on his lightsaber, which he skillfully activated with his tongue.

T'Bacca died in 124 ABY, after a tragic accident in which he absentmindedly turned his lightsaber pipe the wrong way. Some say that he only noticed he was dead 6 days after it happened, his force ghost lingering around his body, rhythmically swinging to a faint sound of a Dantooine tribal drum beat.

I hate Jedi Academy. I've just started playing it and holy fuck I didnt think i would dislike it this much. Im playing on the hardest difficulty like i usually do and its nearly impossible. The movement is spastic and annoying, the guns are inaccurate as fuck and weak and most are terrible for long range. The force powers kill slow as shit and there isnt much use in using them at all. The lightsaber is the only weapon worthy of using but he swings it like a retard and if you miss the first slash which you probably will since you move so goddamn dumb then you get hurt a fuck ton. Oh, and it annoys me that you dont have the option to go first person with the lightsaber. The cutscenes are unskippable too. This game doesnt seem to have any of the grit as the jedi outcast games as well. Now, ive just started this shit so maybe the aspects that are able to change will change but the mechanics are fucking retarded and that cant even really be changed. Multiplayer is fucked and boring as shit too

The gameplay was ok. The plot and writing, specially the dark side path, was lame.

Even the killing of the other guy, the one who betrayed you, was badly written.

HE PLAYED an iconic role in one of the biggest movie franchises of all time.

Jake Lloyd had the world at his feet and should have been the envy of every child in the world after playing Anakin Skywalker in Star Wars: Episode 1 - The Phantom Menace when he was eight years old.

Instead, the Star Wars actor quit the film industry after his childhood was turned into a "living hell".

The 22-year-old became so haunted by the movie he vowed never to act again and he has stayed true to his word.

"Other children were really mean to me," he said.

"They would make the sound of the light saber every time they saw me. It was totally mad."

Jake recalls how busy his young life became and at one point he was doing around 60 interviews a day.

"My entire school life was really a living hell - and I had to do up to 60 interviews a day."

Lloyd felt so much anger towards the George Lucas directed film that he destroyed all of his Star Wars memorabilia, and only reprised his role as Anakin for five video games.

The youngster decided to take early retirement from acting as he was no longer able to fit in at school.

"i've learned to hate it when the cameras are pointed at me," he told a magazine.

Jake, whose mother is an entertainment agent, admitted in an interview Scifitv.com that he doesn't like watching the film anymore and he blames George Lucas for that.

"When you have something like that there's a lot of expectations for it to meet the standards of the public and I don't think George did that.

"For me to go back and watch it now would be kind of creepy."

This kid actually went to my high school same time as me. I remember he was constantly surrounded by a retinue of fawning girls and sycophantic young men, forming a barrier between him and the rest of us commoners. Being a huge Star Wars nerd as I was, but a social outcast as well, I always wanted to approach him to ask about his experiences with the film. If this is the hell he went through, I'm glad that I didn't. Sad to see what he's become, although I trust he'll move on from it.

"…but there's a very subtle joke in one of the shots…A shot was put together that a had a rock coming in front of a TIE ship.

The roto department was asked to do something with it. When the

rock goes in front of the ship and it blows up, there's a little

thing that flies off to the left hand side of the screen.

If you were able to see it frame by frame, you'd notice

that this object is actually a little cel-animated man. It's

the pilot of the TIE ship flying out of his cockpit! It goes by

very fast. And it's really violent! As he flies out, he's in one

piece, but as he starts to leave the frame, he breaks up into

pieces and catches on fire!…"
