Stormtroopers

Started by Lan©eWindu™3 pages

I don't think they are ALL clones, no matter what George says, because he is just contradicting a crucial fact stated in A New Hope.

In said movie, Luke was wanting to go to the Imperial Academy, probably to become a trooper of some sort.

Maybe some are clones and some are regular Joe's that passed a test to shoot a blaster rifle and keep missing.

i did say crap about the EU how it can be inaccurate since only GL would know the full story

Dude, we're in the EU thread, I just gave an EU answer. I'm not correcting you or anything. I'm just saying how Lucas' answer applies to the EU too and doesn't actually contradict it as some have pointed out. But thanks for the spirited response! I love those! 😉

i said before tho

and this involves the clones of ep 2 and the troopers of the OT
dont be a dumbass, read the posts

Don't bash people for their opinions UG.

Lucas is just trying to cover up his continuity errors.

Uber God you can go suck a *&^. You post in the EU thread, you want to know if the clones become the stormtroopers. You get a yes. You want evidence: watch the ROTS full trailer. People gave you evidence. Then the debate starts that is old as hell, "so what's up with EU, do the film explanations work, or did the authors mess it up?". We discussed this freely, since it is a public forum after all. You got your answer and then you start insulting people who have been here for a long time because you don't get what's going on? WTF? god *&^% noobs, always screwing up the forums. March 2005, gee you didn't sign up to maybe download and discuss the trailer did you? F%^&ing noobs!

Come on meph...don't stoop to his level of immaturity.

And Lance...I heard they were toying around with the idea (for the DVD's) to make all the troopers CGI so they're all the same size. Obviously they didn't, but did you hear that one? Sounds like a good idea in retrospect. Because he obviously is just covering up a big continuity error. Or maybe he did know they should be clones back then, but simply never thought he'd make 1-3 and thus didn't worry about it. Plus they probably didn't have the money to actually spend time and get a bunch of people all the same height and body type. Or, he just thought this whole clone thing was cool and decided they'd be stormtroopers someday...either way, I think he should just go in and fix it. Better use of time than new musical sequences anyhow! 😆

Yeah, I heard that somewhere.

I like how they are diverse though, and not the same person over and over again. Like I said, some should be clones, others should just be from the Academy.

I was always under the impression that the academy was for pilots. Luke wanted to be a pilot, Biggs defected and he's a pilot. Han defected and he's known for his piloting skills. So I just sorta always thought they were for pilots only... Apparently, with the PT around, this must be the case now. But, there was that guy I mentioned earlier who suits up to look for the escape pod on Tatooine. So maybe there were others occasionally. And don't clones take a while? I mean, sure they're not in that big a fight with the rebellion as with the separatists, so maybe clones last longer...
Honestly, I kinda like Lucas' explanation. I laughed the first time I heard it for the obvious grasping for straws that it was, but it does kinda work. And honestly, probably how it would end up working, when you look at all the nepitism in our own governments. Which would then mean that the Academy is for pilots and officers as others have mentioned. Cuz the officers sure aren't clones....they're all Brits....but they aren't clones. 😄

wonder why they gave up on attack droids

many clones = many people
many people = need food
many food = shitload money

Has anyone noticed all the clones are Kiwi's? 😱

i thought they were all african, seeing that they had a kiwi to clone off 😛

Seriously! But not in the OT, because they're new hosts 😉 😆

You only read two lines? Really? because I don't call you a noob until line 7, which is, consequently, the LAST two lines.

Owned.

Too true...but then again, buying the parts for the droids and repairing them costs money, especially when you think you can always grow another clone.

Maybe the OT clones don't need food, we never see 'em eat.

Sorry Lance, couldn't resist....

plus those droids go down easy as all hell! That's a LOT of repairing. Could you imagine if Microsoft was making them? whole batallions would go AWOL!!!

The droids went down fast but atleast they could kill something.

Plus new material for droids wouldnt be needed, salvage the destroyed droids
