As many of you may know, I have effronted many people ((including Ush and yerss)) by never having watched Star Wars...


Well, I watched them all last night and on Sunday, and they are SO COOL! I am officially now a Star Wars obsessive!

late bloomer

did you watch all 5 of them????????????????

oh welcome to be intrigued of Star Wars by the way

It took her long enough

what versions?

WOO-HOO!

But yeah, when you say all, do you mean all 5? And if so, in what order?

which is your favorite?

ok ... guys, don't geek her off quite yet already

seen 4, 5 and half of 6, gonna finish watching 6 tonight, then start on 1 and 2

Han Solo is the coolest character, but followed VERY closely by Obi-Wan!

oh great, you still have to see 6

Which is the best, despite what some stupid people say.

majority, VG, majority

...you haven't seen Star Wars until now? Didn't think there was anyone left out there that hasn't seen Star Wars...

(I personally have seen all 5 of them at LEAST 10 times each, and my favorite by far is Empire Strikes Back )

you know, saying you saw them 10 times is only impressive cause you're a girl, if you were a guy we would have laughed

We shall see what Apprentice Phoe makes of the ROTJ testing ground...

Just because I'm not in the majority doesn't mean I'm wrong. In fact, it means I'm right.

(j/k)

it's proven that those who like ROTJ haven't seen the other ones

Woo-Hoo Phoe has seen the light.

Shut up, Yerss My estimate for at least 10 times was closer really to the number of times I've seen episode 2, 1 is somewhere around 15, and the original trilogy I think I've seen about 20-25 times (though I lost count after 15, so I'm not sure). Also, I didn't even see any of the Star Wars movies until I was 12 (6 years ago).

(And are girls that like Star Wars really that uncommon? Because in real life I know more girls who are Star Wars fans than guys...)

erm, to my exerience... yes, it's uncommon
at first guess I would say on this forum, gundark, dim, julie and lyn are female sw fans ... and that's about it..; but I'm sure I missed out some

and 25 is still not impressive

Well, most of that 25 times was in about 2 years, since my copy of the original trilogy got lost when I moved four years ago and I still haven't gotten around to replacing it...and now I really want to watch Star Wars but I can't

And yeah you forgot some, me for one (though I haven't really posted in the SW forums at all yet, really)...but maybe I'll see if I can drag some of my friends from school here so there's more female SW fans

sorry 'boot that, you apperently are a fan too (I just know the other names cause they post here )

that's bad luck you got there... but in the states it should be simple to replace the tapes no? and you can buy the dvd's in september

Yep...and I'm thinking I'm just going to wait and buy the trilogy on DVD, instead of buying the tapes again and then going out and buying it on DVD a few months later And actually I'm not even sure if I'd be able to find a new copies of the tapes unless I searched online...

it's not in a regular shop? djee, and I thought the States were the country were you could find SW stuff in every shop!
it's a hell here to get something

you think you can wait that long for the dvds?

I've had lots of trouble finding Star Wars stuff before...only time there's really lots of it around is right when one of the movies is coming out, otherwise it's not that easy to find. And yeah, I think I can wait until September, if I really want to watch it I'll just steal my friend's copy

as a star wars geek I'm forced to say that a jedi would never steal

Yeah, well, if I lived in the Star Wars universe, I'm pretty sure I wouldn't be on the good side...

thinking of changing your name to Lady Vader?

Not quite THAT evil, just enough to be able to cause some serious havoc

you rebelscum

Seriously, though, being a good guy would be no fun, you'd always have to worry about whether or not you're doing the right thing...but if you're a bad guy, who gives a damn? That's how I see it

but ... but ... the jedi code!
you should care about others, make the universe a better place!

YAY for Phoe you've just taken the first steps into a much wider world!!

(This doesnt mean I'm going to go off and read all the HP books now though...)

its about damn time!

well being in the dark side could destroy you ultimately but being in the lite side could make you to nice and kind so i'll stay neutral and you could follow the jedi code but do the ways of the sith. Besides are you done watching the starwars films?

no, stupid coursework essays keeping me away from my videos...

Right, that's it, burn her coursework!

(leads ravaging mob)

actually, phoe, it's a good thing you won't see the ending

Ahh, don't you hate schoolwork? I sure do

what grade are you in Trin ?

Speaking of codes:

You've got the Sith Code wrong there Revan. Its:

Peace is a lie, there is only passion
Through passion I gain strength
Through strength I gain power
Through power I gain victory
Through victory my chains are broken
The Force shall set me free.

well im as you may not relize right there are two sith codes the one i have and the one you speak of. Just don't know why there is

Welcome to the obsessed club!! WOOHOO!!



I'm with you VG!! Jedi was a GREAT movie!!



We are pretty uncommon...I don't know any female SW fans except for my buddies here, on these forums.



That'd be great.



*Joins ravaging mob*

you make it sound like you're an endangered species

Reason there is more than one Sith code is simply because different people keep making these things up. There is no canonical outlying of the Jedi code anywhere, or a hint that a Sith one even existed.

(hands Lyn a torch)

I just got to the bit where you see Vader's real face

starting to hate it already?

?

the movie

no! why you say such things!?!

Me? Last year of high school.

And I'm all up for joining the mob and burning schoolwork...I actually made a point one year to toss all my school papers into our firepit in our yard and burn them

I've personally gotta say that ROTJ was my least favorite of the original trilogy...but still better than the new ones.

No canonical one, but Lucas came up with the Jedi Code, so I consider it somewhat official. The Sith Code I have comes from Knights of the Old Republic, where I believe that Lucas had at least some hand in the story.

lets talk about the codes in another thread shall we? this one is to lure more females to star wars


-the rescue of han solo was a walk in the parc, they could have done more, a disappointing ending to a cliffhanger
-the endor team has the time to make some friends and have a little chat with the ewoks and still make it in time to blow up the shield (it would be in time if they didn't had the backup teams)
-a legion of palpatines best troops gets killed by little teddybears

should I continue?

It's only a slight distraction to clear up this thing abot the code...



Lucas came up with the IDEA of the Jedi code, any CONTENT of that code is completely un-canon. Especially as GL was actually envisaging a the Code as a set of rules, not a philosophical poem. Where in the 'code' presented there is the ban on a Master having more than one apprentice? That is the only canon thing we know is in it. That poem is not the code. As I said, there is no canonical outlaying of what the Jedi Code is, nor a hint that a Sith one even existed. These things are just being made up by individuals and repeated by others.

GL had no hand in KOTOR.

-

Anyway, yeah, as I have made clear enough by now, I think ROTJ suffers from severe plot failures caused by it suddenly becoming the end of a storyline which was meant to go on for three more episodes when ESB was written.

I'VE SEEN THEM ALL!

I'm happy

you're a weird girl, phoe ... you fit in nicely

Heh, we're all strange here!

And the Ewoks bugged the hell out of me...they were TOO cute. Damn teddybears...

I have only seen three of them
1, 2, 3

^ This is my second time that I post in the Star Wars forums :s

well been out of school since last year i did the same i burned all my past work and over due paper work

funny, since 3 isn't out yet

well, trin ... it's good to see those ewoks are hated across the world

I like the ewoks.

Dislike of ewoks is universal

actually, some weirdos like them

I like ewoks!

and Jar-Jar! he's so cool!

"how wude!"

wow phoe, you're not gonna be popular around here I think

my brother hates Jar-Jar...

most people here dislike jar jar and the ewoks

*points to self*

I didn't mind Jar Jar, since I thought he served his purpose well. And the Ewoks were cool.

look, another weirdo

*thwacks yerss with lightsaber*

Yeah, very funny
But I'm talking about Star Wars,The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi

that's 4;5 and 6


you DO know that the shiny part will kill me!

okiday...

*thwacks yerss with lightsaber HANDLE*

I think you will find a fair few females are ok with the Ewoks, yerss. Of course, TM is an exception, but then they exist; some guys like them as well...

woops, didn't saw your reply phoe

see, much better

will you join us in the debates now too?

great, up to the EpIII section you go

Heh...well, I'm the exception to a LOT of things

And Jar Jar was rather annoying, I thought...he was funny for five minutes and then it got old. Damn comic relief.

I have a lightsaber! From a few years ago when I decided to be a Jedi for Halloween...heehee...

I guess you could put it like that...


*grabs torch and sets papers on fire*


WOOHOO!!


I totally, 100% agree with you.


I really, really like her.
*joins in*

hey! ow! that's no fun, lyn


*notices TM's reply*
*starts singing*
"Luke, be a Jedi tonight .... Luke be a jedi tonight...
Do it for Chuwie ... and for obi-wan
Luke be a jedi tonight!"

anyways, back to topic...

me wants a lightsaber...

me too, but I won't hit people with the handle

would you rather I hit you with the electrum bit?

Ol, so, overall judgment compared to your other obsessions, Phoe?

I would rather not get hit at all phoe

*laughs at yerss's singing and starts twirling around her lightsaber*

One cool thing that came out of being on flags...I can do all those nifty moves they do with lightsabers in the movies

Aww....sorry yerss...

Wow...lucky girl!! I'm jealous!!

I can twirl if needed... no butterfly though

Hah, last night I got bored, found my old lightsaber from Halloween three years ago, put new batteries in it so it'd light up, and was twirling it in the dark Yeah, I was kinda bored...

hay what you know i did the same last night with my anakin force Fx i was board too but the butter fly is kind of hard for me too the force Fx looks and sound like a real lightsaber

TM... you're a geek; good job

Weird Last night I found the history of the lightsaber...
http://www.jitterbug.com/origins/pix3/saber_inspirations.jpg

Berlin what web site did you find that from? It looks intriguing.tabletalk

Thank you, Yerss, I'm damn proud of my geekiness And the butterfly's easy...I made up a toss using that move that is really fun I looove tosses, they're so easy and it's really fun to freak people out because they think I won't catch it but I've caught every one. And my flags team just recently went to a competition and we won 1st in state

That picture is certainly interesting...

really? butterfly easy??? the one Maul does just before he throws a piece of droid into the door to open it seems darn hard
I asked a friend of mine that once, and he's a great athletics-kinda guy ... failed miserably...

but on the brighter, and more boosting-side, I can do carthwheels without using my hands and summersaults (or saltos... guess one is british-english)

Meh, maybe I just find it easy because I've had to do it hundreds of times...

I'm a total clutz when it comes to sports...I did gymnastics when I was younger but hurt my knee, I played tennis until I broke my finger playing it and was unable to play violin for a month...now all I do is dance and flags.

waiting to brake something to during that?

seriously, how do you do a butterfly exactly? a trick you have perhaps?

Actually, I did twist my ankle rather badly recently...and I've gotten more flags-related injuries than anything else combined. Bloody things are dangerous if you're not careful.

Just lots of practice...took me nearly two weeks to master it, actually

do you do anything without hurting yourself?

hmmm, I got two weeks, I'll give it a try

I'm pretty good at getting hurt in seemingly ridiculous ways...and good luck

on second thought ... no, not really no

the most acrobatic thing I can do is an arrowspring... or I can do a high kick... thats about it...

http://www.jitterbug.com/origins/

wow now i have seen every thing. but doesn't that mean starwars may be a knock off of those movies

Why the straight face I was just kidding about the knock off remark . It seems the creaters of the other movies had the same ideas of GL it was just a coincidence.
