My Pleasure!

Anakin: Master, sir, I Heard Yoda talking about Midicholorians I've been wandering what are Midicholorians?
Qui gon: Midichlorians are a Microscophic life form that resides in all living cells.
Anakin: They live inside me?
Quigon: Inside your cells, yes. and we are symbionts with them.
Anakin: Symbionts?
Qui gon: Life-forms living together for mutual advantages.Without the midicholorians life could not exist, and we would have no knowledge of the force...

ALLRIGHT THAT'S IT I GIVE UP! DAMN MIDICHOLORIANS!

No KNOWLEDGE! He didn't say the Force itself wouldn't exist, just that LIFE wouldn't exist. And without life we can't know anything can we?

Well, you proved your arguement wrong. Qui-gon says that life can't exist without midichlorians, and that without them there'd be no knowledge of the Force. NOT that without them there'd be no Force.

Darth JLRTENJAC, that was particularly feeble. You didn't even read your own quote correctly. You have wasted far too much time now on an issue that everyone has seen was settled a long while back. When you are wrong, do try and accept it with some grace rather than dragging it out through theis pointless charade.

I'd like to see this back on topic now please. People trying to extend this distraction on purpose will be warned.

I just Remembered it incorectally.

Simar down, this still doesnt change that kotor is a gift from the gods.

Nac, Kotor was a good game, but it wasn't THAT good.

You know why I have so much respect for EU and actually put it over the movies?

1. The storys are beter.
2. It answers questions that were never answered in the movies. (aka, How will the new republic get on there feet? What happened during the clone wars? What enemies will there be AFTER the Galatic Empire? What about Anakin's training as a Jedi? Who trained Yoda (If that hasn't been answered it should)?)
3. It expands the Star Wars universe (Hins the name)
4. It gives you Star Wars even after George lucas is sick of it, It's all we have left.

I think it is point 1 I have trouble with.

Some EU stories are definitly better then some of the movies. And some of the movies make others look stupid in comparisson, its stilll a matter of taste.

I agree.....I've read a lot of EU and a lot of the stories are mediocre at best 😬 certainly not at the level of the movies. Maybe TPM level, but for the most part, not even close.

Some of the Clone Wars novels are very good. But that's about it. And some PT era novels.

Hey It still EXPANDS the Star Wars universe.

That is not in of itself a good thing.

Takes away some of the mystery of the Galaxy.

It expands the Star Wars Experiance.

Stop saying that, your not helping out your argument.

....it's a freaking video game. It's not that big a deal. Not everyone's required to like it. Here's something that'll make your head spin -- I haven't even played KOTOR!

15 year old KOTOR boys tend to get carried away with their video games, they worship them as gods.

Says alot about our society doesn't it?
