Has anyone noticed how lame Ep1 blasters are compared to the OT blasters?
In the OT, the blasts took pieces out of stormtroopers' chests in a shower of REAL sparks. In TPM, the blaster bolts go "TINK" when them hit, they scorch walls like someone's put a cigarette out on them, and you can only see the sparks produced for a couple of frames. Only the droidekas had serious weapons.
I think GL should go back to pyrotechnics for this effect, or is it an example of more powerful weaponry 34 years on?
