Right, I'm getting the sniper out...

Just kidding. The original trilogy was the best. By a long way.

I won't code any prequel material either

Oh, Imperial... you broke my heart... *sobs*

I actually really enjoy the prequels and I salivate at the thought of playing a prequel era version of First Strike. It's such a rediculously fertile era with humongous potential, and I'm only referring to the in-film material.

So we are in agreement, until the dev team is replaced, Ep 1-3 will not be made! yay!

Hmm. I didn't really like TPM that much, AOTC was a bit better, and ROTS was pretty good. I think some clone wars maps in FS would be good, just because some people didn't like the PT doesn't mean it wouldn't be cool fighting some of the battles.

Yeah I remember hearing that. When they were doing the preliminary planning for the Battle of Yavin sequences, they actually spliced together footage of old WWII fighter plane movies to plan out how they would have ship movements and certain shots pan out.

Well when MF escapes the DS, the scene where TIEs chasing the MF is literary taken, scene by scene, by a war film, don't remember which one

but they showed it once in a documentary and they are exact copies, they just changed background, weaponary and of course the vehicles

If you want a western set in space, watch Firefly.

Star Wars is more of a romantic battle set in the depths of the galaxy as two clearly defined sides of Good and Evil fight it out for supremacy. The rebels always containing 1/3 the size of the enemy at any battle fight against all odds to try and overthrow an Emperor with the ability to corrupt and destroy planets.

That's why I love Star Wars, it's just got two clearly defined ideas, and a WHOLE ton of fluff.
