The sun crusher destroys every star in the halo galaxy, and the amount of super novas blows the dust away from the galaxy and before you say the convenant destroys the sun crusher, nothing other than a fl hole can so much as scratch the stuff the sun crusher is made of.
Star wars fleets can pound a planet to space dust in a matter of hours general grievous and his fleet pounded the core world of humbarine to pieces in space the halo galaxy is screwed.
People in star wars can obliterate entire fleets with the force alone *palpatine*, some people cannot die of any cause short of falling into a star *durge*, entire planets can be stripped down into spare parts by massive super weapons in a matter of weeks *world devastator*.

  IGN: Reader Review of: Star Wars Battlefront II
Star Wars Battlefront II The Force Is Kinda Strong With This One
In the end, Star Wars Battlefront 2 is a bit more flawed than the first, which is weird because there is so much more in this game.
If you are a Star Wars fan or just want a great third-person shooter, this is your game...especially at the price you can get it for now.

Star Law Marshals cannot have their cases closed, but can be reassigned, but only by the Star Law Captain-General, and then another Star Lawmen of equal or higher rank must take over their cases.

 Star Wars: Blogs | Lost, down, deep in the spice mines of Kessel... | Grand Moff Tarkin   (Site not responding. Last check: )
The mastermind behind the death star's construction is grand moff willhuff tarkin, the former lieutenant governor of Eriadu, and the first imperial leader to achieve the rank of Grand Moff.
It also says that the death stars chief engineer is Bevel Lemelisk, and he wrote the plans for the death star in ink that would fade away after a short period of time.
Another minor gripe I have is that casual fans of STAR WARS usually credit Darth Vader with the destruction of Alderaan, when it was Tarkin who came up with the idea, and gave the order.

 Star Palace: The Great Adventure - Star Wars Epics
The Star Palace would be used in the upcoming remake of The Scarlet Pirate and filming would resume once the ship neared Ord Mantell, the perfect location for a film about a ruthless space pirate.
I have had it with your advances, I have had it with your threats and unkept promises!" She was so angered by the grotesque "joke" the producer pulled, she slammed her heeled foot down as hard as she could in the middle of his groin, then stalked out of the high rollers lounge.
No reason to leave them, after all, he was talking with 2 civilians, a veteran of the Galactic Civil war now on vacation, and a Man who had wanted to join the NR military, but a rare health condition kept him out of it.

 The Star Trek Legacy
In the opening months of the war, the Federation suffered an almost unbroken series of defeats at the hands of the Jem'Hadar, and showed little capability of stopping and turning back the Dominion's all-out offensive.
The Cardassians were certainly not idle on Terok Nor during this period; Glinn Damar, adjutant to Gul Dukat, was in charge of the operation to deactivate and destroy the minefield.
Deep Space 9 had played only a minor role in the war thus far, and though it remained a crucial target, holding the station was not sufficient for victory on either side.

 BlueSmoke - Review : Star Wars : Galactic Battlegrounds
It contains a wealth of information for the die-hard Star Wars fan on the history of several key planets, the heroes and villains including Qui-Gon Jinn and Darth Vader, as well as the development of unit types over the centuries and the six civilizations.
There are the spice mines of Kessel, the icy snow world of Hoth, the forests of the Wookie homeworld Kashyyk, the sands of Tattooine, the cloud city of Bespin, the Naboo capital of Theed, the forest moon of Endor and even an imperial held asteroid known as Hanoon.
Also, the entire collection of music from the Star Wars saga is included and adds tremendously to the game's overall aesthetic value.

 Editorial: Star Trek Lives! | TrekMovie.com
Star Trek was never about that and to me, even the reviled Starfleet Academy concept, always had the tremendous potential to tap into the importance of mentors in the formative lives of a man or a woman.
STAR TREK had real social issues wrapped up in a fun, action adventure romance drama with a real sense of preil of the terrible dangers of space, real villians, real tension between these friends and crewmates, Next Gen and Voyages had only made up self indulgent social issues of the early 90’s.
Star Trek fans are a small interest group compared with the main audience: useful to keep on-side, but not the core focus of who the producers need to please.

 R.A. Salvatore
Salvatore not only had to work within the confines of the Star Wars technology, which was a little more restrictive than in worlds he invented himself, but also had to use characters that someone else had already created.
When I watched Star Wars for the first time, I empathized with Luke because I was the same age and had the same idealism, and now I am closer to Han by far.
Although the Star Wars universe is a "hugely different" genre for Salvatore to write in, it is not, he says, what he would consider hard science fiction.

 DVD Review: Star Trek II: Wrath of Khan (director's edition)
Long considered by Trek fans to be one of the best entries in the (very) long running series, "The Wrath Of Khan" offers one of the more action-packed "Trek" adventures, and the film still holds up very nicely even 18 years after its original release.
With one of the best villians of the series in Khan (Riccardo Montalban), this film sets up a revenge plot and battle between Khan and Captain Kirk.
After many grumbled that the original picture was slow-paced (I still don't understand that complaint,as I think the original - while certainly not the best in the "Trek" series - is still entertaining), the filmmakers obviously wanted to create a more epic adventure this time out and pick up the pace from the get-go.

The map details a par and the space battle are ok. I love Star Wars but I won't be rushing to buy first day releases after 3 title purchases that although great didn't push the enveloped and could have used more time in quality control to eliminate the bugs.

Star Wars was never meant to be such a serious film with such a GIANT affect on POP Culture.
As a true Star Wars fan, from the old school, I thought the movie provided a good platform for the last,but first three movies of the saga, it was as good, but i can't say better than episodes 4,5,6,.
I think that the movie star wars episode 1 was relly good.But it was not like the uthers star wars films.but it had great action.I think the next movie neds a sith a real good dark jedi and more action thanks that all.

``Star Trek: Nemesis,'' the 10th big-screen adventure for the crew of the starship Enterprise, opens Friday and has one of the series' most intriguing premises for an archenemy: a young Picard clone whose harsh upbringing has made him a hateful, murderous monster.
``Star Trek: Nemesis'' screenwriter John Logan said the aim for the new movie was to create that sort of antagonism between Picard and Shinzon.

It details the Lady Rhian, daughter of a minor nobel who has been sold to an evil sorceror for her mother's life well before she was actually born.
It was a little slow and long winded I bet the whole thing could've been condensed into one novel but has been drawn out into two for some unknown reason, the story is a little bland though these two excellent authors do their best with such well dry characters.
It details a medical outpost where things aren't as they seem, the expensive drug 'bota' is being stolen and smuggled in some way and Padawan Barriss Offee must discover who as well as lending her healing powers to the surgeons whilst she's at it.

She slightly prefers the Prequel Trilogy over the Original Trilogy (for a number of reasons, not because it is newer), but really enjoys both.
Her purpose on Wookieepedia is mostly to find information on the Star Wars Galaxy, as she still has much to learn and enjoys reading about it, but she performs minor edits and menial tasks when she can.
Favorite characters, villians, and creatures are listed in order of preference (favorite of the favorites to least favorite of the favorites); the rest are listed chronologically or alphabetically.

But chances are good that they already picked up the trilogy edition of all three films, so their decision to buy the 2006 two-disc edition depends on how much they want the original film.
Also, introduce the whole Star Wars saga to children who may have been too young to see it originally, or the rereleases in 1997.
I've watched all the Star Wars movies scores of times, and they are all spectacular with a great story, great action, and great characters (all with the beautiful music of John Williams).

 John Logan On New ‘Star Trek’ | TrekMovie.com
Nemesis was the Star Trek V of the Next Generation movie era… a pretty interesting idea that failed due to horrible execution.
Star Trek relies on elements such as warp drive, transporters and non-human species; it is most certainly sci-fi, and you cannot change this by exploiting the English language.
It was more an observation that the star, or one of the two stars is evolved with the writer and together they have more power going to the producer and getting what they want out of the story.

While Star Wars hasn't been overly political, politics play a minor part in the developments and brings more depth to an otherwise action oriented plot.
Of note is Mara Jade, one of the most complex and entertaining in the SW universe, and a cahracter that has a conclusion that sets up events years in the future.
If you are a Star Wars fan and haven't read the Thrawn Trilogy, you owe it to yourself to check it out.

 myLot - Should the Star Trek Universe still go on, and if so in what direction should it
I think that Enterprise just veered to much from what star trek should have been, into as you said to much tech, and to much hype, since the star trek of the timeline they did shouldn't have had so much tech in it.
Just use the Star Trek universe and explore what life might be like for non-Star Fleet types who are just living their lives.
As for the age of the characters (actors as well), because of the "open" timeline available in Star Trek and the fact that humanoids live quite long, old characters could make appearances to intertwine the storylines while new characters could be introduced and developed.

To a Star Wars fan in the early '80s, however (like myself), this was a dream come true - at the time, it felt like you were actually participating in the Battle of Hoth!
The third game in the fantastic Super Star Wars trilogy for the SNES was a bit better than Super Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back in terms of graphics, character design and sticking to the story of the film; however, it fell a bit short in the challenge and level design departments.
As far as the Super Star Wars games are concerned, Empire would probably have been the most challenging, if it wasn't for the password system.

We saw them with large photon torpedo launchers in the Klingon Civil War, we one capable of massive destruction against Cardassians single handedly in the form of the USS Phoenix, and that design even lacked the photon launchers seen in the Klingon Civil War model.
The Star Trek: The Next Generation episode ""The Neutral Zone"" established that the Zone is so far from Earth that it took hours just to send and receive messages from Starfleet Headquarters.
Unless there is documented proof that the Producers of Star Trek First Contact meant to insert the actual Mellenium Falcon from Star Wars into the movie I suggest that the part of the article showing the supposed falcon be removed.

 Minor League Ball :: Minor Leagues blog featuring John Sickels
If they hadn't been titled Star Wars the second two would never have made it to the theatre, but the brand is a money making machine, so they did.
The entire series is rife with lousy writing, which is odd considering what a great overall story it is. Star Wars touches a broad audience because there are so many themes (dark vs. light force, romance, action, scifi, tragedy, drama, comedy, etc), and it's ironic that such a good story has such bad writing.
I think the big thing that Lucas tried to do with Episodes 1 to 3 was to finally bring his vision of the Star Wars Universe to screen so that everyone could see what was going on inside his head.
