Can anyone get me the extract that occurs roughly in this segment in the movie?
===========
LEIA: No! Alderaan is peaceful. We have no weapons. You can't
possibly...

TARKIN: You would prefer another target? A military target? Then name
the system!

Scans from page 103 and 104 of the 1999 reprint of Orbit's Star Wars Omnibus.

LMFAO...

I have the SW Trilogy, condensed versions of all three books bound together... they didn't change any names AFAIK, but they changed about as much dialog as they could without messing up the story too bad..

R2D2: D2R2

That explains a lot.... the French are all just dyslexic!

I rather liked the ANH novel. It gave good detail on the SW universe,
and Wedge was a bigger part of the story, I thought that was good.

Wedge? You mean Biggs, don't you? Otherwise I agree.

Coming to think of it, it may have been Biggs. I was thinking of the guy
who was telling Luke that, the rebeillion was more than what the official
information channels were saying. He was going to join the Imperial
fleet for the purpose of jumping ship and joining the rebellion.
Wedge? Biggs? Been to long since I read the novel for me to recall....

Biggs Darklighter.

My favourite part of ANH was how Red One knew Luke daddy.

Biggs. He was the first officer of a freighter, the Rand Ecliptic. Most likely a civil freighter, because he was to avoid to serve the Imperium.
