One of the scenes George and his marry men wanted to do for the Battle of Hoth sequence was have a damaged T-47 hurdle through the sky and slam right in the face of one of the AT-STs. OUCH! big_smile

That is correct!!!

Re: AT-ST types

Why can't they just redo all the battle scenes where there aren't any people? Hoth, Endor and Yavin could all be made much better.

Re: AT-ST types

i do agree with you, i noticed that when i saw the movies. mabye they were supposed to be different. the AT-ST's on Hoth were ment for Hoth they needed to move faster to get the enemy, and it was a flat terrain. now the Endor AT-ST's were smaller b/c they were ment for tighter spaces. stuff like that
