What do you think of them? What did Luke think of them? He probably despised them for holding him back but when he was offscreen Uncle Owen pointed out how he wanted to make things up to him etc. I think they're the most underrated characters in the movies and are really the first human characters we were introduced to and got to properly know in the trilogy and deserve more recognition and discussion. Your thoughts on them?

Rampant ox
I liked them in them OT. PT, not so much. erm

Tangible God
Since we saw them in a combined total of like 8 minutes in ANH before they fried, I really don't care too much about them.

Rampant ox
Ahh, but if they hadnt gone and got themselves killed then Luke would never have left Tatooine, joined the Alliance, destroyed the Death Star, received Jedi traning and killed Darth Vader. stick out tongue

vintageSW77
I like them
classic characters
as a kid i thought Owen was nearly as intimidating as Vader!

queeq
Indeed.... another mean MOFO

megadeus
Owen and Beru were decent characters for the screen time they had.
I would assume Luke loved them- they were the closest thing to parents he had.
And I liked the way Lucas fit them into the PT to explain who they were and their
connection to Luke.

vintageSW77
even though we are now left with the biggest coincidence in movie history

queeq
Another one.

What do you mean.

vintageSW77
C3p0s magnicent journey back to his place of origin

queeq
Yeah... terrible.

General G
It's Star Wars people, anything can happen

queeq
Unfortunately.

General G
Yeah

megadeus
Maybe it was the Force....

I don't see it as a problem myself.

JaehSkywalker
Owen is holding Luke back IMO.

The Force works in mysterious ways.

queeq
In midichlorian ways

General G
I don't like that word, couldn't they have thought of any other word besides "midichlorians"

Count Makashi
I hate the hole concept of midiclorians.

queeq
You should.

Alliance
I don't as much. If its passed through families it has to have a biological basis.

Count Makashi
But it toke away the mystery, the magic. And i hate the explanation, if someone cuts your arm off, you get weaker in the Force. It should be like, that the Force is around you, like an energy field and you don't get weaker, just because someone cuts a part of a body off, thats just lame.

General G
Yeah, so in that explanation shouldn't Yoda be really weak in the force? compared to someone who is ay 10 feet tall?

Alliance
argh...I don't have time for a biology lesson right now...maybe later.

queeq
That's stupid reasoning. It's about the relative amount of midi's in your cells. It shows force sensitivity. It's not the absoluet amount that counts.


OMG... I sound like a midi expert now... *screams and runs*

thumb up

queeq
Oh... no I get kudo's for that answer.... the disgrace.

General G
Midichlorians still suck...

queeq
They do indeed.

General G
And yet you know so much about them?

queeq
Unfortunately...

General G
If you don't like them so much, you shouldn't go around telling people about them

queeq
I keep them informed about things SW... that is what SW mods do too... A dirty job but somebody has to do it.

General G
Other mods can't do it?

queeq
I seem to be the only mod frequently around in the SW forum. Ush shows up once in a while to shed some light on things.

General G
I noticed that...Ush does show up right when he is needed. But what about mechmoggy? He hasn't been here in a long time

queeq
He's around... once in a while. But he's my mate.

General G
Damn...and gundark?

queeq
She's my lover.

General G
I am doomed...

queeq
You are. You beter give in and enjoy your stay.

General G
*sigh* alright...my rebellious stage is over


p.s. you posted in a closed thread!!! eek!

queeq
I did.

and now that you turned... will you pledge to my teachings? evil face

General G
I pledge myself...to your teachings *kneels*

Count Makashi
General G how could you, you traitor, how about our rebellion, don't turn to the Ewok side, i was once under his influence, but i broke free, you can to.

General G
I tried to fight it...I really did! But he is just too powerful...he can post in closed threads! We can't do anything against him! He has the mods and even the Admin on his side!

What is thy bidding my master?

queeq
Rise, Lord Gewok. Now, you will bring your friend Makashi to me.

Alliance
Can we talk about clones again?

General G

*rises*

I will do my best, my lord.

queeq
Now tell Alliance how great the Clones are. You don't have to mean it.

Count Makashi
The Clones are great, but i will never join you queeq, i will forever fight against you, i will be that handsome rebel that all chicks want, when there will be injustice i will be there and bla bla bla...

queeq
YEah yeah...

In the meantime you just obeyed me.

Count Makashi
No, because i always liked Clones, they are my 2 favorite organization, culture... only behind Jedi.

queeq
But you did obey me.

General G

Hey Alliance...Clones are soooo cool, especially how they are all made from Jango Fett, he was awesome but had a really crappy death erm And the armor! Don't even get me started about how awesome they are!





















































*eye twitches*

Alliance
Oh my god queeq really has posessed you.

I'm glad I started on the right side. Damn droids. sly

General G
I especially like how the clones were shot! Their brutal awesome deaths by the droids were very memorable

*stares in awe*

Alliance

General G

Count Makashi
Never, what does it mean?

General G

Count Makashi

General G
Just for a second

*regains posture*

Alliance
vode means brother in Mando. Come on...its not like I'm using dadita, di'kut.

queeq
Rise, Lord Gewok. You understand well the power of Chaos.... you have created mayhem in this thread. You make me feel proud.

Count Makashi
What mayhem are you talking about?

queeq
Never mind. Soon you will understand, my young apprentice.

Alliance
Can I shoot him yet?

queeq
Always.

Alliance

Excellent...all because of your teaching, so Makashi will give in and there will none left to oppose evillaugh

queeq
There will be no one to stop us this time.

General G
We just have to make sure this does not happen again.

Count Makashi
Originally posted by General G

I will never give in to the Dark Side, i will never join queeq.

General G
You say that now soon-to-be apprentice, but he will show you the true power of the Dark Side!

Count Makashi
I will never be his apprentice, i would rather die, then to join him.

General G
If that is your decision...So be it

Count Makashi
I can feel the struggle in you, come back with me and we will kill Ewoks again, when the life was so much more simpler.

queeq
Once he breaks down sobbing realising Dooku is really dead, he will need a new idol to look up to. Then, G, you will bring him to me.

Count Makashi
I will not come.

queeq
OF course you won't.

Count Makashi
Then why did you say, to General G - you will bring him to me.

queeq
I'm just lulling you to sleep. In time... my young apprentice, in time.

General G

General G

Count Makashi
Originally posted by General G

Never, i said i would rather die, i wouldn't come even if Alliance, pressed a deecee into the back of my neck.

General G
You will change your mind once he actually he does it.

Count Makashi
No i wont, i am fearless, a Jedi isn't afraid to die for a good cause.

queeq
But you're no Jedi... you're a Makashi, known throughout the universe to be weakminded.

Count Makashi
No, i am known for my honesty, courage and decency.

queeq
By whom?

Count Makashi
I dont know, by people.

queeq
What people?

Count Makashi
You know, those people.

Alliance

queeq
I better stick to my defintion of Makashi. at least that's in Wikipedia.

General G
I think that definition works.

Count Makashi
Oh, yeah i am also elegant.

queeq
Says who?

Count Makashi
Again, the people.

General G
What people?

Alliance
THE people

Count Makashi
The people of the Universe, they all think good of me.

General G
How do you know?

Count Makashi
They are all screaming incompetent, when i go by. Thats very good.

You don't know what they are actually saying. wink

And you never asked me either...

queeq
Makashi is full of it.

General G
He's full of lots of things.

queeq
Especially Dook.... err..... that SW character.

General G
Yeah, be careful, he might be lurking around waiting to spot off some great thing "it" did.

Count Makashi

JK.

queeq

Count Makashi
Thx you, i try.

General G
Does that mean I'm not because I'm not a mod?

Count Makashi
Your not what.

General G
Scum of the universe.

Count Makashi
You are, since the day you sworn allegiance to queeq.

General G
Better than being on borrowed time.

Count Makashi
Is that some kind of a threat.

General G
No, it just means eventually you will be on our side.

Count Makashi
Only in your dreams.

General G
My dreams always become reality.

Count Makashi
Since when, because they didn't before.

General G
I don't dream often, so when I do, they come true.

Count Makashi
HAhahahahahaha.

queeq
THe laugh of insanity.

General G
I dunno...rabies produces that kind of laugh too...

Count Makashi
It was a normal laugh, what are you talking about.

General G
I am pretty sure there was a bit of rabies or craziness in there too...

Count Makashi
No, it wasn't.

General G
I think so.

Count Makashi
You think wrong. My laugh is normal.

General G
Normal for a guy with rabies.

Count Makashi
Or, you making stuff up.

General G
Never!
