Across the Stars is a great song that the movie uses poorly. Meanwhile Battlefront 2 good version picks the best part of the song to use for the Galactic Conquest mode.

The AOTC love theme is incredible, and I also really like Rey's theme from TFA which is the only really memorable tune from the sequels but it's grand.

Yeah that one is my favorite! TFA sorta ignited my love of Star Wars Lego and I went down a deep hole for a bit. But poo poo's so expensive - last set I got was the UCS Y-Wing and kinda called it quits after that.

I can see Anakin and Obi-Wan in that shot, but why does it look like there's someone tobogganing down a lava flow in the background? Robot Style posted:Definitely designed as a fast "let's get the gently caress outta here" ship, since it was originally supposed to be Han's vehicle, until someone pointed out how similar it was to the ship from Space: 1999. This his always slightly amused me, because the Tantive IV really doesn't look that much like the Eagle. It has a narrow profile for part of the body, and that's kind of it; even then, the Eagle is all narrow, while it only makes up part of the Tantive IV. The really odd part is that after Lucas decided to change it, he got someone else to design the Millenium Falcon with a broad directive ("make it look like a burger" or something, if I recall) and then people accused him of plagiarism for that design, because it looks like something from the Valérian and Laureline comics.  The XB982 debuted in the comics in 1969 apparently, and while it's certainly closer in looks than the Tantive IV is to the Eagle, I still wouldn't say they're all that close. There's a few things that people think Lucas and/or Star Wars borrows from Valerian though; Laureline wears a similar slave outfit, one of the villains wears a helmet to cover a scarred face, the comic has a simliar aesthetic of a "lived in" future, and so on. One of the original creators says that he wrote to Lucas asking about some of the similarities without ever getting a response. I get the feeling that someone (or someones) on the film's production staff was probably a fan of the comics, rather than Lucas himself, since Lucas is generally pretty open about his influences, and that at least some of it is just convergent design choices (the Slave Leia outfit was based on Frank Franzetta paintings rather than Valerian according to the designer). That DICK! posted:i dont remember that, 2 fly. i think the plinkett reviews say the clones should have been the bad guy enemy force, which i think is a fair point. but even if they say that foreign invaders happen all the time in space adventure stuff. star trek does it from time to time. yuuzhan vong........ A lot of people imagined the clones were the bad guys in the clone wars after that name drop in the original film, including Timothy Zahn, who wrote the first books of the new Star Wars EU (though not the first Star Wars books), and had a pretty different vision of the clone wars in them, since it hadn't yet been codified by Lucas at the time.

Uh, NO! The Battle of Endor has three action storylines interwoven together: Lando & Co. fighting in space, Luke versus Vader, and the Gang fighting on the planet surface. Each part is perfectly scored by Williams, and keeps you on the edge of your seat. It's the last act, which means that any of the heroes might sacrifice themselves for victory.

Correct, the only storyline from Endor worth talking about is the one where IG-88 uploads his brain into the Death Star 2 and starts pranking the Emperor by randomly closing doors in his face and blaming it on teething malfunctions.

Yeah, according to Lucas: Making of Star Wars posted:“The flying hamburger was my favorite design,” Lucas says. “I thought that the other design was too close to Space: 1999 and too conventional looking. I wanted something really off the wall, since it was the key ship in the movie; I wanted something with a lot more personality. I thought of the design on the airplane, flying back from London: a hamburger. I didn’t want it to be a flying saucer, but I wanted to have something with a radial shape that would be completely different from anything else.” The concept art book for Solo actually had an image of a previously unseen "missing link" Falcon that's incorporating the new shape while also keeping some of the Tantive-style design elements.  Lucas' notes from around the time of the redesign refer to the Han's (then nameless) ship as a "pirate manta-ship", so there might also have been some animal influence. The ship's mandibles and wide flat shape definitely have some manta ray to them, even if it's something that was realized after the fact. I think at one point, Lucas was leaning into the aquatic nature of the ship - in the backstory he provided for the ship to licensees he said: Making of Star Wars posted:“It’s of Corellian design, from Crell, and is used primarily by the Corellian spice shippers. They transport their goods to the center of the Empire. The Corellian ship is a very easy ship to know. It’s a very simple ship, very economical ship, although the modifications he made to it are rather extensive—mostly to the navigation system to get through hyperspace in the shortest possible distance (par-sects). So Corellians were originally flying porpoises who built starships shaped like manta rays.
