I strongly disagree with you. David Prowse had to learn how to fence and
sword fight, had to wear 100's of pounds of armor and props, and while all of
that was happening, he had to synchronize his head movements with JEJ's
talking! He definitely deserves credit.

Whoa! Want this book... (I lost the ISBN, could you send it again? If it's in
English or French doesn't matter much, although I'd prefer English...)
25000 before ANH? Or the destruction of DS2?
Like an essential guide to vehicles and characters...?
Good! I bought it a few weeks ago and it has really browded my mind... I've

I've missed them (Is it there where the Emperor's Clone appears?)
