Being an opener they don't bother me in the slightest.
I didn't opt to re-buy for freeze frames and wont for a "base".

I voted Odle.
I would rather have all the others than Yarna. She was ugly in the film and she will be ugly as a toy.
Following that train of thought if Yarnas ugly what is Odle :o

Saga '02-'04 / Re:The Official Ewok Village Thread

I don't collect vehicles and playsets so I am not really bothered if they make one or not.
That said if they do make one, they will have to bump up the number of ewoks to be made otherwise it will look like a ghost village.
IMO, more Ewoks=The Dark Side.
Don't you all remember the classic line from TPM?
Yoda; "Ewoks are the path to the dark side. Ewoks lead to anger, anger leads to hate, hate leads to suffferrrrrinnngg!"

I've never seen one in the flesh :(
I seriously doubt that I will pay £80 for one either.

I finally saw it over the weekend. Excellent.
The one thing I will mention is.............. Gollum 8)
It just goes to show that if a character is developed enough and truly is done well then you can love him even if he is skirting on the edge of sanity.
I really felt for Gollum and the fact that he was CGI never caused me to look for the "fake" look, or the bits that just look unreal and cartoony. This is the first case for me when a major CGI character has been so damn convincing unlike his comparison.......Jar Jar Binks.
It makes me think that maybe if Jar Jar was a better character to begin with he could have been as convincing as Gollum was, maybe even better. But when you start hating something, you look for more reason to hate it until you can't stand it.

Sorry all you Jar Jar fans but seeing Gollum made me realise just how much better he could have been.

Did anyone notice the background behind Merry, Pippin and Treebeard?
Treebeard was done absolutely brilliantly but the background was so lame it kind of ruined all the shots where you could see it. There was no problem when you saw all of Treebeard, it was just the close ups >:(

I have one cat called Greebo.
He is named after the Greebo in the discworld books (anyone read these?),because he is grey/silver, although he has no scars, still has  both eyes, and is really quite friendly.

Falumpaset? I think that may be a specific name for one creature and maybe not the general name of the species. That's my guess though, falumpaset.


I don't mean to butt in but it was actually the Fambaa that carried the shield generators.
The Falumpaset carried the large boomer ball things for the Gungan catapults. The toy had an added cannon type of feature on the top.
