The Sort-of Tragic Anakin Skywalker

drhenryjones12 — Dec 07, 2005 02:52 PM

We all know that Anakin Skywalker is supposed to be a tragic figure. He was drawn to the Dark Side by Palpatine. However, when I first saw Revenge of The Sith, Anakin didn't strike me as completely tragic. I only felt sorry for him for a little bit,

The Jedi: Kings And Queens of Denial

drhenryjones12 — Dec 05, 2005 02:50 PM

We all have heard that the reason the Jedi could not detect Palpatine or Anakin's Dark Side tendencies for so long was because the Dark Side clouded their sight. But is this the only reason? I believe another factor was at play. No one, not even the

Star Wars And Religion

drhenryjones12 — Dec 04, 2005 12:57 PM

We all know about the Jedi, the Sith and the Force, but what about god? After the Jedi purge, the public is taught that Jedi and their teachings were evil, so what religion do they assume? Does Palpatine try and say he is a divine figure, making

Lightsaber Style Analysis: A Reflection of Inner Emotion

drhenryjones12 — Dec 03, 2005 09:32 PM

While pondering Lightsabers, I realized something. A Jedi or Sith's lightsaber styles reflect their inner emotions. So, I thought I'd analyze some character's lightsaber styles.

Religion: Jedi

drhenryjones12 — Dec 03, 2005 11:02 AM

A few days ago, while clicking on random things on the internet, I found a curious thing. In 2001, a swath of people decided to coordinate a massive effort. Were they going to stop world hunger? No. Were they going to clothe the homeless? No. Were

"Fufilling Your Destiny, Anakin." Returns With a Vengance

drhenryjones12 — Nov 13, 2005 05:36 PM

Some of you may have read my blog entry "Fufilling Your Destiny, Anakin." In that blog, I stated that it was confirmed Anakin was created by Darth Plageus. However, I was wrong and soon published an apology. However, tonight, after buying The New

You Are Not "GL" So Why Try And Think Like Him?

drhenryjones12 — Nov 13, 2005 01:25 PM

I am relatively new to the Star Wars online community, but already one of the phrases I've heard the most goes like this: "You have to do that like this, because that's the way GL wanted it to be." Me thinks this is starting to become too common, and

The Best Saber Duels This Side of The Galaxy

drhenryjones12 — Nov 12, 2005 07:59 PM

A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away, there was a series of games under the "Jedi Knight" title. These games offered some of the best saber combat ever seen in a Star Wars video game and had some pretty cool projectile to boot. Unfortunately,

The Sepratists: Traitors or Misguided Freedom Fighters?

drhenryjones12 — Nov 12, 2005 04:29 PM

When looking at Attack of the Clones, we are given the impression that the Sepratists are evil, while the Republic good. However, were the Sepratists simply planets breaking off from a corrupt government? They could have been. There must have been at

Stormtrooper Halloween

drhenryjones12 — Oct 30, 2005 01:45 AM

Halloween is tommorow, and that means there is going to be thousands of Han's, Luke's and Leia's. But what about the characters that people sometimes don't think about? What about the characters that came wave after wave to shoot at Han, Luke and Leia?

The Future of Virtual Star Wars Battles

drhenryjones12 — Oct 29, 2005 09:06 PM

With only a few days until Battlefront 2 hits the shelves, very soon, thousands of people will be battling for control of the vast new space maps. Although these space battles do look amazing, I have always wondered what kind of maps we will be looking

Okay I Know What You Want: Ewoks vs. Gungans

drhenryjones12 — Oct 29, 2005 09:04 AM

This is a question that I have spent many a sleepless night on... Ewoks vs. Gungans. Take note that this is not a popularity contest, but who would win in an actual battle. It will consist of two matches, each on the native species homeworlds, and the
