There are a bunch of little references to other Scifi shows and films in Episode 1.

If it's not intentional, then it's not an homage.
What the only "non-Star Wars universe" alien to appear in Ep. 1 ????
Free aardvark to whoever knows the answer.
BTW: Those that did not catch it, go back and watch the senate scene again.
numerous ET sightings in there. [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/smile.gif[/img]

i saw it yesterday.
great land battles, really awesome effects.
one of the main problems in this trilogy (episode 1,2 and 3), is the political area, bigger than in most films i ever saw,....the "create the problem and gave the solution" (a fake one of course) is really few times show in films....one film with this political incorrect things and...quite complicated...is not well seen by public.
****************
and **********....amazing!!!!.
b5 needs a movie ......a good one movie....to boost everything....
*Spoilers removed by Drazi Guy. Carefull, Asturcon. Not everyone has seen it yet.

BTW watch out for an animation of B4 by me sometime soonish. I just about got the still timeshifty thingy done. It took a whole day to fiddle B4 to spec for that. eek!
I noticed the Frazi-like ship in a Quicktime Ep II trailer.
Bummer!
A very good movie in my opinion. I particularly enjoyed the part where.........eaten by............... and jumps on ................turkey baster ......................womp rats ........................lightly grilled weasel ......................And your little dog too!
Hmm. Seems to be some interference from the anti spoiler jamming. [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/wink.gif[/img]

that speeder doesn't look like a frazi unless seen at an angle like it is in this shot, unless it isn't the one Obi and Ani were chasing.

I won't say anymore so it won't spoil the movie for other ppl.

[b]Certainly looks like it "borrowed" a lot from the Frazi. Just like those Federation starships "borrowed" their entire design from Battletech's dropships!

Those Federation starships look a lot like the center parts of the battleships in ep 1.
BattleTech did not come up with that ship design first. It's actually quite old.

No, but it's been one of the most popular sci-fi events of recent years - the last [i]20[/i] years - to promote such a design.

And I thought the two in one Federation ships were really neat. It would've been horrible, though, if they got Johnathen Frakes to report that the ships were rejoining with their saucer sections.
