User:LtCol. JuiceStain

Okay first off, my rank really means absolutely nothing. Its just part of the name and sounded cool at the time. Now that we've gotten that out of the way, the user info box to the right pretty much explains everything you need to know about me. The rest of this page is just extras. Anyway, there's not much, but hey, someone out there might find this interesting, right?

My Favorite Star Wars Books
And last, but not least:
 * All the X-wing novels | Reason(s): They're just awesome! Michael A. Stackpole and Aaron Allston are incredible writers. The characters kick-butt, and the stories and conflicts are awesome!
 * All the Republic Commando novels | Reason(s): They're exciting, very nitty-gritty. There was a little too much extra terminology that didn't need to be in Triple Zero (it was still good), and sometimes the Mando stuff gets to be overbearing (again, still not bad), but Karen Traviss is an awesome writer! A great addition to have to the Star Wars titles!
 * Labyrinth of Evil and Rise of Darth Vader | Reason(s): Immediate before and after views of Anakin becoming Darth Vader. That's pretty cool (the action isn't that bad either). Plus, James Luceno is also an awesome writer! The Unifying Force isn't among my favorites, but it was a good way to wrap up the NJO series.
 * Shadows of the Empire | Reason(s): What happened between Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi? Read this to find out! Only negative view: needed more Dash Rendar action!
 * Pretty much all of Timothy Zahn's novels | Reason(s): Pretty much the same reasons I like the X-wing novels: AWESOMENESS!! I particularly liked Allegiance myself.

My Favorite Star Wars Games
And I am REALLY looking forward for (imaginary drumroll):
 * Star Wars: Rogue Squadron
 * Shadows of the Empire (game)
 * Star Wars: Empire at War and the expansion Forces of Corruption
 * Battlefront 2
 * Both Star Wars: Starfighter and Star Wars: Jedi Starfighter
 * Star Wars: The Force Unleashed!!! It's gonna be SICK!!

"Your ability to talk people into wanting to kill you borders on some kind of Jedi thing, you know that?"

"I wouldn't get too overconfident if I was you."

- Janson discussing the state of the Empire.

"Everything is proceeding as I have foreseen."

 * I'm not a negative person, but like I've said before: if you don't expect anything, you'll never be dissapointed.

Opinions
'''I only have 2 complaints regarding the movies, and these are jsut my opinions and what's done is done, so it doesn't really matter. I don't have a say, so I shouldn't complain. Yet, here they are:'''
 * Triple Zero had too many acronyms and all around gibberish that I felt didn't need to be in there. It was an awesome book all around, but seriously: RPC, MRU? Was that really necassary? It seemed to me that it was just in there to add more pages. I don't know, that's just my opinion. A good book, though, all of them, really.


 * HAN SHOOTS FIRST!!!!


 * JarJar SUCKS!! I don't like him. Episode 1 was great, but JarJar killed it. He should've been killed off. Maybe he'll be killed off in the show? One can only hope. (Look to the right for a graphic representation of what I wish to do to JarJar.)

...Now back to happiness...


 * Ewoks are awesome and cuddly, and I like them a lot. Wicket is cool.


 * George Lucas is a genius. Despite JarJar, we can't be bash him. Without him, this website wouldn't even exist. Show some respect, ye nay-sayers!


 * So what if George Lucas puts his family, friends, and crew in the movie. GET OVER IT!! Jeez, the things you people come up with to point fingers at is RIDICULOUS!


 * Furthermore, George Lucas created the blasted universe, so why the heck shouldn't he have a say in what happens in his universe. HE CREATED IT, HE OWNS IT!! Oh, boo-frickin' who...get over it.

As a Part of My Crusade...
Do you agree that the picture to the right is of an Omega Squad Clone Commando? Yes!! No, it's Boss...isn't it? (It's not, btw.) I...don't...know. Does it matter? (Yes, of course it does!!)

My Vision of Possible Super Extended Releases of the Movies??
If I knew George Lucas personally, I would totally suggest this to him. Here it goes:

Episode 1
Okay, we all know the Trade Federation invaded Naboo and caused all sorts of problems...but the movies hardly (if at all) show it. Oh, sure they show teh ships blockading the planet. Yeah, that's bad. But the movie should've shown the Trade Federation to be more diabolical, you know, battle droids pulling people from homes, herding them like cattle, executing people. That would've REALLY made the Trade Federation seem an evil that had to be destroyed.

Episode 2
Put in the scenes of the army of moisture farmers fighting against the Tusken Raiders that took Shmi! That would be wicked awesome!

Episode 3

 * 1) The duel with Cin Drallig and Vader. That would've been insane!
 * 2) More clone trooper action!
 * 3) Quinlan...Vos. Need I say more?

Episode 4
Biggs Darklighter's scenes should be added in somewhere. That's about it.

Episode 5
Hmm...definitely the famous deleted scene in which C3PO pulls the sticker off the doors holding the wampas and the snowtroopers go in and get killed!

Episode 6
Extended Battle of Endor scene. For the ground: focus a little more on the Rebel soldiers. Ewoks are cool, but what about the beings we as humans can actually somewhat relate to? For the space battle: just show some scenes of Mon Cal cruisers and Star Destroyers decking it out, kinda like Episode 3's opening battle. THAT would be cool.
