Broode Posted January 28, 2002 Share Posted January 28, 2002 In a second. I hate this stinking hole we call a planet and would do anything to leave it. Kinda. And besides, the star wars universe is much more interesting than here, if you've ever watched any of the movies, you'll know that there is never a dull moment, convenient plot twists will always bring a character around at exactly the right time, and the key to victory against overwhelming odds will always fall right in your lap.

gamebooger Posted January 28, 2002 Share Posted January 28, 2002 Ups and downs to both sides of it. I'd probably go then try to get some missions to come back here. Although how many lightyears would it be? Probably too much to come back or even go to the star wars galaxy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matt-- Posted February 3, 2002 Share Posted February 3, 2002 I actually came up with the same exact story to convince myself that Jedi Knights were real. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deadswitch Posted February 3, 2002 Share Posted February 3, 2002 Laff. I'd go. I don't know who on earth wouldn't. Except maybe Trekkies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xwing guy Posted February 6, 2002 Share Posted February 6, 2002 I'm not sure if I'd go, if like a bunch of my friends and several people of my family were signing up then I would sign up too, but if they weren't I don't know if I could leave them all or not.

Jimi-Wan Posted February 6, 2002 Share Posted February 6, 2002 Nyghtfall and Matt-Windu, I was actually thinking about writing a fan film with that same concept for the past 3 years. I started writing 3 different scripts in the past 3 years but never finished them. Although I did write one of them into a short story for my english comp class last semester, where some young scientists developed blaster and lightsaber technology(which was the cause for the visit from the Jedi) and were taken in by the Jedi. Im actually now in the process of thinking of another one now, and started this process like a month ago. Since I have been thinking about a storyline very similar to the one in the original post, I have been thinking about the question "Would I go?" a lot lately. The answer: yes I would. I would look out to the twin suns as Luke did in ANH. I would miss my family and the few friends I have, but they are "insignificant next to the power of the force" (Vader, ANH). Besides, "Its what I've always dreamed of doing" (Anakin, TPM). And for the possibilty, however large or small, of this occuring I must fulfill my destiny.

Kurgan Posted February 13, 2002 Share Posted February 13, 2002 I guess it depends on : 1) What kind of evidence they offered to support their claims, and 2) how benevolent they were. After all, anybody as powerful as that, would have no trouble crushing us under the yoke of tyranny. It's a big enough show of power that they came from another galaxy, and with a purpose too, but then such a feat requires some extraordinary proof. I might want to believe them, but it would be an issue of faith, without proof... Although one thing that would tip me off right away that they were bogus was this part: They tell us they will teach us how to access the 90% of our brains that we do not presently know or understand, and how to use our own potential to harness the powers of the Force. Considering humans use all of their brains (unless we're talking about lobotomy or something here)... Besides, there's nothing in Star Wars that talks about that "force potential" being hidden in the <b>brain</b>, is there? But, let's say it all was real, and they really did have hyperdrive like in the movies. In theory, they could bring you home in a decent time-frame. Their ships are capable of traversing the SW Galaxy in about a month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acdcfanbill Posted February 15, 2002 Share Posted February 15, 2002 i dont even need to be a Jedi... i would gladly give up my dirt shoes for a seat in a fighter... in fact, if the Tigers Claw (Wing Commader) or the guys from Freespace showed up i would go in an instant... you remimber friends forever, but no space sim/movie can hold a candle to actually flying a fighter... [thinks] man i gotta get a job at Boeing and make them build X-Wings...[/thinks] well, too bad these are all dreams anyway... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben_Walker Posted February 16, 2002 Share Posted February 16, 2002 1/ I should be able to say good by t all my friends and famliy. 2/ Play a good deal of JK2 before I leave. 3/ See Star Wars: Episode 2: Attack of the Clones and maybe episode 3. If I got to do all that, I'd go. I propery see it as a destiny thing so I would go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eternity Posted February 19, 2002 Share Posted February 19, 2002 Yikes. It's threads like these that make the hardcore Star Wars addicts even more..hardcore. I'm convinced some of those dudes really believe that universe far away really exists. I mean, you kinda have to if you are devoted to taking a large chunk of your life and sacrificing it to the imagination of some director called George Lucas. Oh, to the 'Super Computer' guy, I already forgot your name: thanks. For some reason, I found that funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurgan Posted February 19, 2002 Share Posted February 19, 2002 Wait, so you're saying that none of this is real? I guess that explains why Chewbacca hasn't paid me back yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cyclone Posted February 20, 2002 Share Posted February 20, 2002 Don't forget that these are aliens. It would be our Earth Bound obligation to nuke them and use their technologies to make secret weapons for ourselves. jeeze, you guys need to watch "ALL" the movies and know the rules before you start your fantasies. If we find them first, we can be friends. If they show up here, then that means they are here to invade because their home world is facing extintion and they intend for us to be their slaves. So we must kill them. Cyclone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
