Well Hater, I enjoyed reading what you have posted regardless of whether it's true or not, niiiiice
thanx a lot lyn
that's the reason why i posted it.to give people somethin good to read and somethin to think about.i had lots of fun readin it and letting my imagination go to work.
we have no idea whether it's true or false,so why not enjoy it.it's neither wrong,nor right.
the reason why it has EU stuff in it was because the guy did a lot of research.he has a lot of great stuff in there.he never says that its gonna be in the movie,but he was tryin to prove that its most likely that vader's injuries happen because of his fight with obie wan in a volcano environment

Evidence regarding the state of Lord Vader's legs is very scarce. Some men of his age have poor knees, yet Vader has great agility, a powerfully confident stride, and at least the capacity to kneel and stand easily. The good functioning of Vader's legs suggests two opposite explanations: that they are largely cybernetic replacements, or, at the opposite extreme, his legs may be intact and exceptionally fit for a man of his age. This possibility can't be dismissed out of hand, considering Lord Vader's general brawn and demonstrated athleticism.
However, in an interview with Bill Moyers in the 25 April 1999 issue of TIME, George Lucas gave an explicit and decisive statement of Lord Vader's general condition. Thus it appears that his legs and arms are indeed entirely artificial.
"Darth Vader was half machine, half man, and that's where he lost a lot of his humanity. He has mechanical legs. He has mechanical arms. He's hooked up to a breathing machine."

george said and I quote "he is hooked up to a breathing machine he has mechanical arms and I think he has mechanichal legs too..." (in a filmed interview Man behinfd the myth that is)
meaning he havent made up his mind yet. Guessing that Vader do have at least one mechanichal leg.
What is this bullocks of men vader age have weak, or how did you put it poor knees????????? Vader is around 47 about the time he dies. So what you saying is men that age that are able to kneel have mechanical or is exceptionally fit? Most of the people I know are between 30 and 50 and none of them have problems kneeling at all so where does it leave them then?

dont get carried away now guys
he just says "some"
not all
hey lance and finti,do the guys you know between 30-50 wear really heavy armor as vader does?
didnt think so
he's saying that even tho vader wore that heavy ass armor and was 47(men by that age start having problems with their joints.just part of old age), he was very agile and didnt seem to suffer problems other 40 year old men would that wore 100 pound armor.

Which is a fusion of lightweight steel and plastics, so they are lightweight and durable, yet the same stuff is used for Stormtroopers and they are easily taken out with one shot.
