[QUOTE="Welverin, post: 1306566, member: 433"] Yeah, it's rather funny. There are a bunch of things we disagree on, but the ones we most agree on, are the ones most popular to hate on around here (SW prequels and RAS). I actually find him rather annoying, with his "shoot him dad!" and the laughing. Why not? What do you have to gain from assuming he's an incompetent boob? If viewing one way makes it a good movie and the other makes it bad, why not go with the good? After all wouldn’t you rather have a good movie to watch than a bad one? It’s no different from reading something online that can be interpreted as a joke or an insult, you can take it as a joke and laugh or take it as an insult and get mad, which would you rather be? The number of troops is just a fault of Lucas’, this isn’t sci-fi and it’s obvious by George’s lack, Obi-wan mentions millions of people dying on Alderaan (admittedly they may not have been literal), the Falcon limps from Hoth to Bespin with out a working Hyperdrive (everyone would die of old age traveling between the two systems at sublight speeds, well maybe not Chewie). So the size of the clone army is just a case of George going ‘Gee, a million is a lot’ and not considering the size of the army relative to the galactic population. Of course it’s really rather irrelevant, the accuracy of such things doesn’t make a difference to the story. Great line, right up there with “Parts of episode one were good, and other parts had Jar-jar in them.” [/QUOTE]
