  1. Thanks for the kind words Apo !!!!! Those yellow pieces are great for weapons and bases - really hope to find some at billund !!!!! I tried to redesign it in order to fit a minifig but it looked like crap, so I reassembled it without minifig hehe !!!!!!!!
  2. As forcasted, ROTS made history in term of box office!!!! "Revenge of the Sith" sold an estimated $108.5 million worth of tickets for the Friday-to-Sunday period, taking its total to $158.5 million since it opened after midnight on Thursday" G that is REALLY impressive as always check it here: http://edition.cnn.com/2005/SHOWBIZ/Movies...reut/index.html
  3. It was good to brake the whole story in different parts!!! I admit I was kind of lost at the end and was stupidly lazy to re-re-re-read everything. You really did an excellent job!!!!!! What is the next mystery going to be ???
  4. and we have the two actors playing two villains...
  5. I've just cheked US S@H and no new online catalogue as of now.
  6. Phes, Let me ad another objection: why is Obi a sissy in the movie ????? First the jsf incident, then he get smashed by dooku in 2 secs, then he leaves to let anie in the spotlights - OK he's cool after ;) As for the good points: * i liked the humour, but i think it was misused * i really like the opening scene - great action * i like GG * the ending is nice (apart from the crappy vader "nooooooooooooo") * ... the problem is that the good points are kinda left off due to all my previous objections ;)
  7. Guys, I'm watching the Monaco Grand Prix and I love the paint job on the Red Bull Racing cars - ROTS paint !!!!!!!! The better is whats 's written inside the cokpit "powered by the dark side" :-D Funny when you know they will not make a podium hehe. Maybe the dark side is not that powerfull afterall :D ;) EDIT: Coulthard out, yeahhhhhh for the dark side :-D
  8. Guys, Here is the new actor playing the second villain: Topher Grace (that 70's show) ;) Spider-Man 3 directed by Sam Raimi, is scheduled for release May 4, 2007, so we'll have time to know the evil characters ;) as always, the cnn link: http://edition.cnn.com/2005/SHOWBIZ/Movies...reut/index.html Enjoy!!!
  9. Hobbes, I think the easiest way would be for you to PM DoubleT ;) Hope this helped.

  17. Guys, Browsing through Brickshelf, I just saw the first really great ROTS Moc - a really impressive V-Wing. Its a 1/24 scale, hence its details!!!! Check this baby out: http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=129925 Enjoy!!
  18. Guys, Here is my latest ship: the Class 1 "Blade". Its a really fast reckon ship: has only front blasters. The idea originates from the SR-71 Blackbird: really thin ship, small wings with big engines. I actually like the combination of black/chrome. Also the back engines is a combination of black, chrome and transparent light blue. I know its a real simple ship with not that many details. This time I hope you will like it ;) BTW, this time it fits a minifig :P I will upload my Shelf gallery, but just for an idea, here is a preview pic!!!
  19. TheBrickster, Thanks for this little mystery story, it was really nice and fun!!!!!!! Cannot wait for your next EB bestseller ;) This time I'll make notes along the way hehe ;)
  20. * ___ -- ___ -- ___ -- ___ -- ___ * Rogue Commander to Lord Vader, My Lord, since those fat slobs are not easily movable, may I suggest a kind of delivery system for very rich clients - Yub Yub 30 min!!!! Also we could add a nice welcoming present - a keyring lucky charm made of ewok furr!!! (its a fake present my Lord because those charms will have mini tracking devices!!!). Rogue Commander out * ___ -- ___ -- ___ -- ___ -- ___ *
  21. * ___ -- ___ -- ___ -- ___ -- ___ * Rogue Commander to Lord Vader, We have still no news on the Rebel Sarg's position as of now. We dispatched thousands of droids and bounty hunters to find him. You will be pleased my Lord to know that our restaurant is well under way, and that I will bring you shortly a couple of younglings for a fantastic culinary experience. Rogue Commander out. * ___ -- ___ -- ___ -- ___ -- ___ *
  22. * gyzgfyugafygyufgygfyuzgfyuzgfyuzgfyzegfuyzegfyuzegf * Rogue Commander to yoda601 Good, Good, I am pleased with your progress. Prepare the arrival of my ship, I will personnaly take a couple of youglings aboard and bring them to Lord Vader - so we can have the first Yub Yub feast!!! Do not forget that Endor is the meat planet, those creatures need to be well taken care of - a stressed meat is not as tasty!!! Rogue Commander out. * gyzgfyugafygyufgygfyuzgfyuzgfyuzgfyzegfuyzegfyuzegf *
  23. Luigi, I am right, this is total BS: Lucas just put this crap story because he F*d up the OT, especially at the end of ROTJ >:( Its like he is justifying his 2005 BS version of the OT, that is really pathetic for real fans of the OT (pre 1997!!!!!!).
  24. Thanks for the link Cpt. Blackbeard ;) I'll move this topic in the video game section where it belongs ;)
  25. Oh well.... Everyone here will throw stones at me but I was actually really disapointed with ROTS for several reasons (I' not kidding and I'm not playing Devil's advocate either): * it was supposed to be the darkest movie BUT I didn't know it was supposed to be a comedy during the first part (and the new clown is...R2 yeahhhhhhhhh!!!!!!). Also among other things, Yoda's battles and his lines when fleeing from Kashyyyk to his wookie friends!!!! * all the greatest parts I really wanted to see were stupidly short!!!! Was there actually a battle of Kashyyyk or the parts we see in the TV spots and trailer is the whole battle, I wonder, resolution 66 in 4 min yeahhhh brilliant!!! Massacre??? * all the villains (who were supposed to be by far the most dangerous and brilliant swordsmen) died really really easilly - 30 secs to cut both of GG arms (well done!!!) and dooku is killed like a stupid youngling!!!! Anakin is defeated like a stupid novice too (I'v got higher grounds and you're going to fry!!!!!!) * you see hardly any violence: dooku's death, jedi temple massacre, resolution 66... * I thought that this stupid Padme would be more of a secondary character but she is just ruining the hole thing - why do we want a long ground assault on Kashyyyk when we can have miss one hair style/dress/cheesy line by scene?????? Whio just wanted to shut her up during the whole movie!!!!! * sometime putting too much CGIs just kills the whole thing - Obi/Ani duel is the perfect example - you see more the lava and lightsabers than their facial expression - much too colorfull. * like in ep 2: total lack of background on main characters - who is GG, who was he, why is he sick... * what is that crap about eternal life at the end when it is said that Qui Gon still "lives"???? thats really BS!!! * last point: what is the thing between Lucas and beasts!!!! This green lizard is as horrible as annoying!!!! (horrible sounds, really horrible). OK, I think that is a short resume of all bad points. However its by far the best of the prequel trilogy (not that hard though) and its really entertaining. I really like the ending!!!!! It just leaves an impression that Lucas did the strict minimum!!!!! Also great potential of future sets I sense!!!!!!!!!!! * GG's starfighter: Belbullab-22 * Yoda's escape pod * 2 cool speeders: Bail Organa's one (when he escapes from the Temple) and the triangular one (Ani's one going to the temple) * Big walker * blue version of ep2 JSF * 2 versions of Obi's JSF * V-wing (how cool when the wings turn when it lands) * Imperial Shuttle * Padme's ship * Minifigs: all jedi masters & some younglings!!!!!! Most importnt Kashyyyk clones (not the scout but the "regular" clone in camouflage), Palpatine and friends (when he proclaims the Empire)
