Yeah, that's a big implication of #25 in the first list. Does R2 recognized Obi-Wan? Yoda?

Yoda's insane behavior is his own. He doesn't act that way after he "reveals" himself to Luke, or in ROTJ. So I don't consider that a contradiction (he does act a little goofy in AOTC, but nowhere near the hilarity of ESB). He takes a different approach than Obi-Wan, no big deal.


From what I've heard TFN guys are a rioutous bunch. On the one hand they adore the EU (again so I've heard) so they would be stumbling over each other to explain away every one of the items in the list based on the EU and probably getting conflicting reports. Some of the smarter ones might cite Leeland Chee, Pablo Hidalgo, etc. to come up with "official" explanations. Others might cite Lucas interviews. A few would probably flame and ask me why I hated Star Wars and say I'm hating on the prequels. They might call me a purist.

Supposedly there is a lot of hatred on the boards (or maybe I'm getting this confused with StarWars.com) for Curtis Saxton, even though he writes for TFN, and he got a few books published (incredible cross sections for AOTC and ROTS) with his material, because he rejects the "official" size figures for the Death Stars and Executor (he says they're much larger than sources before him stated) and maybe because of his "endor holocaust" scenario (which Hidalgo who writes for the databank rejects).

Anyway, yeah, what would be the point? I might even get banned for "trolling" after posting such a list. Still, I admit it would be funny to post it.

I guess that's the thing... what's the point of such a list if you can only post it in a "safe" forum where you know you won't be banned for it?

Still, posting it on a website and then just linking to it casually would be even better. That way people can't accuse you of making the list yourself.

Doubtful. I mean, does "All your Base Are Belong to Us" show up in Websters? No, because they don't give a crap about internet memes. Wikipedia on the other hand, is a different story, since arguably it's run by 'net nerds' (and I'm a net nerd by being here and participating, just to let you know!).

- Kenoby calls Vader "Darth" in the Death Star lightsaber battle in EP.4. However we learned all Sith Lords start with Darth, it does not make sense.

-Ben says he thought he was as good Jedi master as Yoda in the OT, however we never see that Anakin's fall was Kenoby fault in the PT, it seemed more like Anakin was reckless (and a bit stupid) and was masterminded by Palpatine.

I didn't write the Jar Jar entry, thats for sure. Its funny how the "neutrality" of the Lucas Bashing post is disputed, but the JJ one isn't, which is smeared with personal reactionary distaste.
