Ep. 3 spoilers (pics) from the magazine thingy that Hyperspace members get.

http://fastanddanger.com/goods/

The new starfighter looks all kinds of ungainly, stupid, poorly designed, and mostly gay. The wookiees look like a cross between Klingons and bikers. Can this movie get any worse?

Yeah, I like the shots..

The new fighter is obviously a design to merge it with Tie fighters... which needs to be done...

Hayden looks pretty damn cool in the Black Jedi Robes...

The wooks looked a bit thick to me, not very Chewie like... but no biggie in my book...

Hayden I like. The wookiees I don't like, but I'm sure will grow on me. The fighter looks like the worst type of sci-fi tripe.

I like everything but the fighter. I dunno, maybe it'll grow on me but it just looks too wierd. But I guess that's what happens when one crosses a jedi fighter and a TIE.

Come to think of it, that's what the "uglies" per the X-Wing series of books must be akin too.

Now I know why they pick Ewan McGregor for Obi-wan, he's looking more and more like Sir Alec by the day (well by the movie anyway!)!

p.s. I think the wookiees look great, klingons? I can see the resemblance for possible the bikers, but klingons? eh maybe, hehe.

I don't care what anybody else says...the emperors royal guard are in episode 3 and that's good enough for me to see the movie even if they only make a 5 minute appearence!!

Keep in mind, a wookiee's personality mainly comes from his actions and sound. A still picture such as this doesn't really show them as they'll present in the movie itself.

Hey now! No more spoilers!

But I guess I'm just asking for it considering the title of this thread, aren't I?

Oh come on Rom, that was all common knowledge! How else do you expect him to turn into Darth Vader? I thought we all knew that from the orginal triology!? Oh well, I gues not, sorry now! 8)

I knew of that fact about a decade ago, not sure where I heard it from, it's certainly not in the original trilogy.

They never mentioned in the Original Trilogy how he got all messed up.

It was in the novels not the films. Novels of the films that is, not EU.
