OT-Osama? Starwars? George Bush = Palpatine

WTF does this have to do w/ comp.games.development.design?

Could you point me to the original newsgroup and subject title or this post? I wan't to read the whole thread.

Also, is your name trying to say that Osama Bin Laden and Obi Wan Kenobi are similar people?

That's still some nice metaphor, it took me a little time to figure out. Luke dresses in black b/c he after completing his Jedi training he is prepared to take on Darth Vader and the empire which will involve some exploration of his darker side (e.g. anger, fighting, maybe killing), it also makes him look a bit more hardcore. Han Solo is obvious, it's b/c he was a self-centred rogue that turned over to his good-natured core to help the rebellion. The stormtroopers are white b/c they're kind of mindless they just unknowingly follow orders, like in Nazi Germany where many soldiers were hidden from the truth of the massacres and the slaughters. The stormers do have black lines on them though indicating some immorality in their ambivalence. On the other hand you'll notice that Vader's imperial soldiers were total black b/c they are aware of what's going on but continue to follow orders. The imperial guards have black with red markings which is even worse, it's like they've got blood stains on them from recent work. And then there's the engineers in grey and brown who just go about their daily business, operating and following orders mainly out of fear (don't do your job and Vader brings out the death grip on you). I don't know about Chewy, he's just a big brown, fuzzy, friendly beast.

george lucas tried to tell us that hate, anger, corruption are the ways of the dark side.. i don t think that he is so wrong with his oppinion.... plz guys don t try to interpret star wars when u don t know facts about it...

???

hehe right

george lucas constructed the look of the imperial offizers after nazi clothes....

sorry but the are clothed totally red

Nazis didn't wear white plastic space suits.

REVISIONIST!

did i say troops???? i said imperial offizers ... learn to read..

He's not referring to Storm Troopers, he's refering to the Imperial Officers. And they WERE modeled after the Germans.

Yeah well, whatever, mine is still a valid interpretation that works for me, even if it isn't Lucas's intention or canon or whatever you want to call it.

Cannon is very important, especially when your standing in front of it and someone lights it.
