I'm extremely biased, but the Imperial Walkers from Empire Strikes Back a dumb moment? That's insanity.

10 Dumb Moments in Sci-Fi Cinema
i completely agree with #1, though
I didn't mind the AT-AT's, I thought they were pretty bitchen actually. But it did always bother me that you couldn't shoot them with blasters from a Snowspeeder or cannon turret, but that they would get tripped up by a simple pulley cable. No way.
at-ats were the best toys
…………..and this one time, at band camp!
Those imperial walkers kicked @ss. And the writer is right, Once you saw them in the binoculars, you knew something exciting was gonna happen.
Um, their armor is too strong for blasters.

i could be completely wrong about this star wars item, but it has sat in my head long time, wondering if "that" could be correct. in star wars iv: a new hope, ben kenobi and young luke skywalker are sitting in kenobi's cave lounge (styling, for rocks and desert). this is right after they first meet, and obi-wan pulls out the lightsaber while calmly saying, "your father wanted you to have this . . . when you were old enough. your uncle wouldn't hear of it." that cannot be true, because anakin was already darthy before padme has luke and leia, so he could not have relayed such an instruction to anyone. unless of cource, darth secretly did it later, tricking obi-wan with his voodoo powers, and knowing that one day such a chain of events would transpire to that of him being set free.
Originally posted by walkonby:That was in the same breath as "Vader betrayed and murdered your father" so it's quite possible that Obi-Wan wasn't making an effort to tell Luke the truth, instead opting to motivate by appealing to his eomtions through a bit of trickery to learn the ways of The Force and destroy Vader and the Empire.
"your father wanted you to have this . . . when you were old enough. your uncle wouldn't hear of it."
it is possible. but he revealed the deception of the other line to luke in the swamp. i love yoda so much in the swamps of "empire." him crawling around with the little light: "mine, mine . . . or i will help you not." there is no mention of the lightsaber dialogue. sorry luke, obi-wan screws with your head when it comes to your father.
have you ever read any of the uncountable number of star wars books out there? some of them are not all that bad, while others are clearly for the "die hard, must have everything" lot. there was one about the original leader of the sith, who is embedded in stone of this temple, and fights luke, of cource, and yadayadayada. that one was good.
