I don't know. He knows the Jedi fighting style- Whirling Blender.

Yeah, but Porkins could've taken him out.

Exactly. Porkins picks a target, then stays on it, delivering a deadly rain of flaming X-Wing parts to it.

Yeah but c'mon Whirling Blender style is more versatile, and reusable.

EDIT: For example say you have a loose string on your shirt how are you going to remove it? If you use Porkins method you destroy the whole shirt, but if you use Greivious' method you simply singe away the string!

I think that Grievous just copied it - he was trying to emulate the "Death Blossom" weapon from The Last Starfighter.

Edit because of your edit - Yes, but with the Porkins method, you no longer require said shirt. Saves time and effort.

Well yeah but the ultimate power in the galaxy rests (or did) in the hands of Tarkin. It combines the destructiveness of Porkins Exploding Fighter Style, with the reusable quality of Grievous' Whirling Blender Technique.

I don't know, but it sure sounds deadly. I suppose if a movie was made about it and the effects were good, it would definitely be one of the stars of the show.

I would just like to point out that it is logically impossible that I wrote that post. While I do like Wicket (you're wrong, Biggsie!), I wouldn't have so blatantly mispelled his name. Clearly my cat sneaked onto my computer and mistyped this. Unfortunately, by the time I noticed this post- or mispost, rather- it was too late to edit it! So please, forgive this transgression that has been made under my name!

Bobba, Tarkin and.... The lil' jedi kid in III who takes on the bad guys at the academy.


Coolest star wars scene: Anakin powering up his lightsabre, looking like he's got inner demons arguing inside him as the little kid at the jedi academy says "what do we do?"

*Anakin slaughters kids*

Just good symbolism in that scene.

Okay.

But the ewoks were still the predecessors of Jar Jar Binks. (Yeah, I went there.)

Wedge Antilles.

or, perhaps, Mon Mothma.

that is, from the MOVIES.

if we includ the books.... grand admiral thrawn, tenel ka, tenenial djo, and others creep in. (PS, i don't have any of my SW books with me, so the dathomir witches' names might be spelled wrong...)

Thrawn Roxxored. As did the guy from I, Jedi, what's his name...something Horn, I think...it started with a C...

And Kip Duron was awesome, but I remember that he pussied out and went over to the dark side for awhile.

That's about it, I think.

Umm Corran Horn?

His name was actually listed previously! Because yes he does rock the force hard.

Shut up all of you! Corran Horn, Salacius Crumb and especially Wicket would be all fried if it came to a fight by my character. Moff Tarkin had wet dreams about the Death Star ever since he hit puberty back in the days of the Old Republic. He's such an important minor character that they throw a small shot of him in at the end of episode III, and no his hair wasn't always gray.

Jedi? Furry bear? Lizard-rat? Fire at will! BOOM. Dead.
