Poor Kit Fisto. I think this is the first shot we've seen of a Jedi getting killed in BTH ...

Well in defense of Kit Fisto I have to say that at least he tried to fight his killer (something you can't say about his "girlfriend" (got shot in the back by her own troopers))

Oh right, it's Aalya's fault because the supposed-loyal Clonetroopers who served under her with dedication turned out to be arseholish backstabbing cunts. Yes, that makes sense. What the fuck is she supposed to do when a dozen guys or more shoot her with little to no warning? That's right: FUCK ALL.

It not her fault, but it still doesn't make it good way to die(actually it makes it worse).

Oh, so that's what you meant. Sorry I misinterpreted. Yes, I think it SUCKS the way she gets offed. Fuckin' clones. :x :cry:

But, unfortunately... there is not *good* way to die. Or to be murdered.

Yeah. You could say that apart of those who went to confront Sidious, all the Jedi who die in ROTS are Murdered.

Like you said there's no good way to die, but at least give chance to fight back is better way to go then being shot in back by those you thinked were on your side :evil:.

Yeah, but Clones killing the Jedi was not a battle it was mass murder of galactic scale.

Still, the clones DO NOT want a battle. Their orders were to take out their Generals at all cost, with little warning. And if the spoilers are true, they even sacrifice some of their own to get kill one of them. Telling them "Yo, General. We're all about to kill you, so EN GARDE!!" would more than likely lessen their chances of killing them.

I've given it some thought and the whole explanation for Palpatine's OT apperance isn't actually contradicted -- from a certain point of view, of course. The use of the Dark Side was responsible for it, albeit through the rebound of Force Lightning... 8)

Well on other hand the Clones have little not no choice in matter (so even if the clones do the actual killing the guilt is Palpatine's (in this case "I was only follwing orders" is a proper defence as clone are uncapable of disobeying orders)

We all know what Order Sixty-Six is and what it means, but has it been revealed yet what the exact wording of the order is? What I mean is, do we know exactly what Order Sixty-Six itself says like we know exactly what Order Base Delta Zero says?

I'm not gonna push it anyway. I thought he force pushed those two Gammoreans as well as choked them, but no matter. I didn't think those two died though.

I too think he pushed them (or Force-Nudged :P) since everyone else who gets chocked in the series don´t move, other than grabbing their throats. Basically they blocked his path and he moved them out of the way while also incapacitating them. (Why is this hard to believe when there´s already evidence of Force Pushing in two films already? Don´t you want Luke to be a bad-ass Force-h4XX0r? :P)

A thought I just had about the new soundtrack. With the theme we hear all through "Battle of the Heroes" and "Anakin vs Obi-Wan", it seems similar to the Imperial March at places. Is it something like the Naboo Victory Parade where they played the Emperor's Theme in minor?

Does the RotS ITW say anything about how the Juggernauts are deployed, and from what platform? All I have is the ICS, and it says nothing about deploying the beasts from Venators or any other ships. I wonder if they're using the Acclamator or something similar, but would it be too large for the boarding ramps?

They probably use something along the line of the AT-AT barges seen in Force Commander.

The Venator can land as well, they should be able to just roll them of the ramp, or something, otherwise its quite possible that it comes in parts and just gets assembled on site, though that would make it a bit useless if you wan’t fast deployment.
