Primary Fan Interest(s): Reading EU novels, all eras.
What do you like most about being an SVRF member? Fulfilling my Star Wars destiny as I approach the magical age of 40, with my new friends (all Rogues by the look of them!). Oh, and including my kids in the group.
FAVORITES
Favorite Episode: Return of the Jedi
Favorite Star Wars Scene: ROTJ - Lando & Wedge blowing Death Star 2 - that entire space battle.
Favorite Hero: Luke Skywalker . That farmboy is the first major film character I related to at age 13; he embodied how I felt at that time (and still feel now on occasion- thanks to my fellow Rogues).
Favorite Villain: Darth Vader . He could be you or me, based on our choices. In fact, I wear all black at work. Hmm
Favorite Bounty Hunter: Jango, because he was the template/father of the clone soldiers, and very talented
Favorite Droid: I gotta go with Expanded Universe "I-5". He is from the Clone War era novels, and similiar too (and even inferior without I-5's special modifications) C3P0. Protocol is I-5's bonus function - he can do much more.
Favorite Aliens: Wookies
FANBOYisms
What's your stance on the Extended Universe? EU is what hooked me into SVRF and becoming a Rogue. Reading EU novels renewed and invigorated my passion for George's work, and enabled me to pass this love on to my younglings. Read my bio on Fan Force forum for further.
Is Jar Jar Binks really that bad? Jar Jar is comic relief. George probably thought to round out the prequels, he needed a character to fill the comic role while C3P0 and R2D2 were working (being developed). I tolerate him more each time I saw him, and am no longer offended by Jar Jar. I hated him at first though.
How many times have you bought the original trilogy on video? Crikey! Purchased in all media forms but laser disc. Last year I discovered scenes I had not previously seen in Phantom Menace!
OTHER
Favorite Non Star Wars movie: Raiders of the Lost Ark
