He tried to take on too much too fast to prove he was everything the Jedi thought he was...as Yoda feared before Anakin began his training.

Exactly, all because of what Padmé said! LOL

Yes let's blame the woman who married him and birthed his children and give no blame whatsoever to the man himself, the Jedi Knight who trained him or the Sith Lord who corrupted him.

I can't find one source that disputes this. Are you just trying to be difficult?

[bpmford]

I'm just kidding, he went nuts on his own accord (the sith didn't help his cause either!)

Luke doesn't look like 19 to me, neither does Leia, nor does Ben look like he's only aged 19 years, more like 29.

17 years difference. And Tatooine's climate is a lot harsher than Afghanistan's.

PS: Although Hamill was 25 at the time of filming SW EP IV, Carrie was only 20...and they're twins, remember? Guinness was 62 so that would make him 41-42 in ROTS, and they made up MacGregor to look that age.

I especially liked the uncut version of that movie, I think I've seen it about 300 times now. Leon is probably the reason critics used to compare her to the late Audrey Hepburn. That said, Portman is so much hotter than Fisher it's not even a little funny.

[Dwight Schrute]

She's also great in Garden State:



Sorry for the off topic

[bpmford]

Yea, love the movie, but it took me forever to watch for the first time!

I actually din't end up watching it until I needed to do a Custom Cover for it for a comp! SO GLAD I DID!! One of my all time faves!

And yes she is!!!

People don't watch SNL anymore and they are missing some of the funniest, original and sometimes shocking comedy STILL on TV. I have been watching since day one.

I agree, unless you're talking Episode I ...can I ask (knowing I might get jumped) that Uncle George and his magic men cover Yoda from Episode I with a CG version? That way he can match in Eps I, II & III.

I voted for the Ultimate Edition....I'd be amazed if they even sell all 6 together....haven't tried that yet (have they? I may be outta the loop )

Yea, right now she is. But going by the movies only, Fisher was a lot more hotter.

It's well known that TPM will have a CG Yoda in the BD edition.

No, they have never released the whole Saga in a set, and I am sure it's going to be an event of colossal proportions!

[phatrat1982]

I never had any problems with Natalie Portman but I sure like the other famous girl who played as her handmaiden a whole lot more.


The only actor I had any problems with was hayden horrible actor I can't stand him.
