I wished that I could have taken screen captures of that... stripping Threepio would make such a good avatar... :wink:

Thanks Swede.

You're welcome. I think it was good that Mr. Chee addressed the continuity issues.

Did anyone else notice the Venator's dorsal keel opening up in Chapter 23, when Saesee Tiin arrives to coordinate the "transfer" to the Separatist ship? It looks like a hangar bay running from the prow to the bridge structure.

Yes, I mentioned that earlier in this thread as well. I wrote that this is indicative of the carrier role of the Venator-class Star Destroyers.

Shaak Ti implies that Ithorians can do it because of their "powerful throat"? Therefore are only Ithorian Jedi (or other species with similar throat types) able to utilize this Force power??
That was a real "holy shit, that's AWESOME" moment...I've loved Ithorians since I first played with my cousin's Momaw Nadon "Hammerhead" figure.

When he started just shouting with all four throats, I thought, "So THAT's why they're pacifists...they can afford to be, with a self-defense mechanism like that."

And while it does incredibly suck that he and the Muftak look-alike (the Talz) presumably died, it was such a relief to see Shaak Ti in (mostly) one piece at the end...

Was there any reason why Grievous let her live? When I saw him taking out those tendrils, I was expecting him to do some really sick stuff that they would leave to our imaginations.

George properly kills her off in the movie, but I don’t see a good reason why Griev did not kill her.

Does Shaak-Ti die in ROTS? I haven´t heard about her particular fate. Would be nice if she turned out to be one of the rare few who survived the Purge.

maybe he left her alive so that Mace wouldn't destroy the gunship, and it worked– Windu looked determined and began to clench his fist, but then ran to go help her. Grievous left her alive to make Windu worried about her and go to her instead of killing him.
Why wonder why? The answer is simple: obviously, someone somewhere decided that he or she needed Baby Jesus up the ass.

Isn't she one of the victims in the Temple Purge?

Or he was following Dooku's advice, that striking fear into the Jedi was the quickest way to defeat them. What better way than to humiliate a Jedi Master on the council and leave her as the sole survivor?

Chapter 25 was on Tooami on Friday, there was a big thing from Chapter 21-25 that started at 5.30pm, and it was on again on saturday and sunday. Looks like you'll have to wait till friday to see 25.

You can watch it on Starwars.com...or Cartoon Network. Not sure which is better quality, though I think it's the cartoon network one, but it keeps bugging out on me.

I've heard something along the lines that she is one of the few Jedis that are guarding the Jedi temple.

Anyone notice the beginning of Chapter 25?

You know how Trekkies think that Jedi couldn't block phaser beams? Well guess what- this disproves them! :lol:

He blocks a long beam shot and redirects it to take out a dozen other droids...

Nope, 25 was after that, there was just a ton of adverts, like a really stupid and long Teen Titans one, I taped it. The Cartoon Netowrk link won't work, it's only avabile to people who live in the US for some stupid reason.
