    Sorry if I sound like a noob, but how are the Stormtroopers in Episode IV different than the clones used in Episode II? Are the IV troopers just regulars guys that were forced into the imperial force? The troopers in II seemed to be a bit more individualistic, even though they were all based on Jango.

    For what I have understood the stormtroopers in episode IV are not clones, but common soldiers who has been enlisted to the empire, and the armor is designed differently.

    Storm Troopers

    Storm Troopers are the biggest wusses in history. They outnumber anyone, have guns, and big AT-ST's, but they get the crap kicked out of them by a bunch of furry midgets!

    With the Jedi exposing their back and stuff - isn't that cos they're usually outnumbered? :bugeye:

    Dave, I'm pissing in my pants. That is so true. I wouldn't take any of that crap from a teddy bear with a sling shot. I'd just raise my laser rifle and say to it 'Come on, it'll be fun' and squeeze the trigger and Bam Right Between the eyes.
    How could the AT-ST's get blown up by two peices of wood. The can withstand blaster fire and rockets, but not a peice of wood. That one was definatly a kiddy movie.
    Anywho, most over rated is definatly Darth Vader. Cool as he was, just people love him for the wrong reasons.
    Under rated, the Scout Troopers.
    A - They have cool armour
    B - One of them actually killed an Ewok (YAY

    )
    C - They get those speeder bikes
    D - They actually put up a fight.

    Lesion, that trooper who bangs his head. Kudos to him. Kudos.

    The Clones are super cool. They could lose the Aussie accent though.

    TIE Fighter pilots are pretty wussy too. Have you ever noticed how short they really are?

    They have cool helmets but that makes them look really thin and weird. A bit like jockeys aren't they

    Underrated: Darth Mauhl, I mean he got it bad because he was in a crap movie but dude was GANGSTER! Cool make-up, he actually looked scary, he's more mobile then Vader (not saying he can even be compared but...) I mean compare lightabre battles from now to then, way more action-packed now. I understand what Cactus and Lesion are saying when it comes to the sword fights being a little uhhhhh, dramatic but I agree with Cactus, I mean c'mon! They're LIGHTSABRES! And I thought the Phantom Menace dual was breath-taking. Plus he killed Qui-Gon. So basically I think Darth Mauhl got the shit end of the stick cuz he was in The Phantom Menace but I think he made the movie watchable.

    Over rated? Maybe Count Dooku? What did ya'll think of him?

    Dukoo is a great character. He fights Yoda who was his master and that's why he turned to the Dark Side. He couldn't surpass his master in skill so he took the easy way out.

    Plo Koon is awesome

    Plo Koon is the greatest but no one seems to notice. If he were in a scene by himself or with another jedi with some action he would be noticed more.

    I should know this, but which one is Plo Kloon (I'm pretty sure he's a jedi). Is he the guy with the coneheadish head who loses his saber at the massive arena battle in ep 2?

    There was also that blue guy, he was in the background when Anakin and Obi were talking to the council in the beginning of Ep 2, and then at the end he's there and he jumps down to kill Dooku but he gets shot, like, immediately by Jango. When I saw that happen I was like "you stupid fuck, you're a jedi, you only get killed by other jedi, you stupid...fuck."

    Plus he was on the council, they're better than that, damnit! Those droids didn't have a frigging chance and they were kicking ass until the clones arrived!! I mean, come on!

    No Pollux, he has an orange face. here is some info from starwars.com:

    The Force runs strongly in Plo Koon's family; he was a descendent of a long line of Jedi. He shared a long history with fellow Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn, and the two have fought beside each other in battle. Koon had hoped to see his friend join the Jedi Council, but Jinn's maverick views kept him from ascending to that position.

    Plo Koon was a Kel Dor from the planet Dorin. His physiology was such that he wore protective goggles and his face-concealing antiox mask whenever in oxygen-rich environments. As a Dorin, Koon naturally possessed highly developed extrasensory organs that supplement his already formidable Jedi attributes.

    Koon was more martial a Jedi than most. Kel Dor natives have a reputation for seeing moral issues in black and white, with clear distinctions between right and wrong. As such, Koon often took decisive action with little contemplation. This initiative served him well during the Stark Hyperspace Wars, when he took up the Republic banner after a great Jedi Master was killed. Koon rallied the disheartened troops to an unlikely and miraculous victory.
