| (...) There again we see Lucas' poor skills of character direction. Granted, Vader presents some pretty big shoes to fill, especially for such a young, untested actor, but this is all the more reason that George should have been more conscious of (...)

| (...) At least Harrison Ford could pull off 'push the buttons and flip the levers' convincingly. Unlike a certain young actor, portraying a podracer pilot. I swear Lucas reran the same footage every time Anakin flipped the toggles on his podracer's (...) (24 years ago, 27-Sep-00, to lugnet.starwars)

| Even if you dont have a scanner, or a digital camera or web knowledge or even a normal camera, you can always buy a disposable camera and then send the shots off to someone here who knows how to get them online. (24 years ago, 27-Sep-00, to lugnet.pirates, lugnet.starwars, lugnet.build)

| No rigging pieces for now, although I wanted to work them in. I still might. The palm leaves are the steering vanes. The steering wheel is a brown technic pulley (wheel from Twisted Time Train) because I don't have a real pirate wheel (I just (...)

| | | | | Re: My E-Wing MOC
|
| That's a very good rendition of the E-Wing, Adam. It looks like it would fit in well with the rest of the SW line. I prefer models that fit in with the models put out by Lego to the large elaborate ones people create. Though the elaborate ones are (...) (24 years ago, 27-Sep-00, to lugnet.starwars)
| | | | | My E-Wing MOC
|
| Hi all, I recently got a scanner, and decided to take some pictures of my MOC E-wing, although they didn't turn out very well. Anyway, I thought I'd share them here: (URL) pictures are fairly large, sorry. Please feel free to take a look, and let me (...) (24 years ago, 27-Sep-00, to lugnet.starwars)

| (...) Yes, the model kit designed worked well enough (I may try that setup for a minifig version) but I think TLG wanted to incorporate some sort of geared mechanism as opposed to just wings that you pull apart and snap together, thus lending it (...) (24 years ago, 26-Sep-00, to lugnet.starwars)
| | | | | Re: Padme Naberrie
|
| (...) Heh heh. No. Funny true story: Harrison Ford sat down in the cockpit of the Millenuim Falcon for the first time and said "Hey! This is great! Now, uh, how do I fly this?" and all Lucas basically said "uh, you push the buttons and flip the (...) (24 years ago, 26-Sep-00, to lugnet.starwars)

| | | | | Re: Padme Naberrie
|
| (...) If viewers do, then what? Just curious. To me, it seems to be the same kind of situation as you mention in RotJ. But, as I said, it's a little clearer in RotJ that Vader *is* using the Force and *isn't* just saying something that is true, not (...) (24 years ago, 26-Sep-00, to lugnet.starwars)

| (...) Actually, the Force is fundamental to the plot of the original trilogy and also (likely) to the prequels. However, it wasn't used simply to explain away shortcomings in the plot, characterization, or dialogue (which have, by the way, been my (...) (24 years ago, 26-Sep-00, to lugnet.starwars)

To be clear, I was not suggesting that Star Wars is an "enduring work of literature" per se, but the one quality that all great works of literature, from Moby Dick to the Bible, have in common is the ability to be interpreted in different (...)
