which? i only remember the independent contractors on the death star thing.
Er...I meant the animated series, ya know, where he calls George to the witness stand and brings up things like the droids not remembering Obi Wan, or how he was trained by Qui Gon, but he tells Luke that he was trained by Yoda. In about the last scene of the movie, they just tack it on with Yoda saying something like "I've got training for you" and then they send the droids away to get their memories erased. I don't know, it just seemed like George finished the movie, and then though "Oh crap, I forgot to fix that!"

Hey, there's that kid in the helmet! heh.

Cant quite recall wether she made it herself or if Luke gave it to her though, making a saber is important in a jedi's training but did they take a shortcut? its been ages since I read those ones & most of the ones on my shelf are vong war ones due to the crappy library near me

Splinter of the Mind's Eye is before she receives any training. There is a scene where luke is knocked out and she picks up his lightsaber and blocks a few blows from vader.

Later on (much) she builds her own lightsaber. I think its mentioned in the hand of thrawn set but i cant recall (maybe she doesnt and i'm just imagining it).

in Dark Empire, an old ex-jedi gives her a saber.

When does the next one (Episode IV, I'm guessing?) come out and what do you think it's going to be called?

'Super Lucas pissing all over childhood memories in 3d with splash technology edition' probably

(the cinema's will need hoses added for the splash tech to work, I forsee it being very popular in Germany

The series surely couldn't have ended this way... could it?

from Slashdot

"George Lucas said he was finished with the Star Wars movies, but it seems George Lucas has an idea for another add-on to the Star Wars movie series: a prequel to The Phantom Menace. The story would follow the Jedi regaining control of the universe from the many Dark Lords some 88 years before Anakin Skywalker ever graced the universe. Yoda, who, according to Lucas, was instrumental in the effort, would apparently have a headlining role. However, Lucas, now age 60, says he won't be captaining such a ship if it ever happens."

BS? maybe but it could be good, though the big sith wars were more than 88 years before phantom menace

I doubt it... episode III seemed waaay too open ended. Besides, there is no way Lucas isn't gonna try and earn some capital off of an episode IV

Actually that'd be pretty cool. I always wondered where Yoda came from... or, for that matter, what Yoda is.

A jedi master, he is. Tell you more, Wikipedia can.

I've finally managed to get out and see Episode 3.
Impressive. Most impressive.
