Episode I: (ET makes cameo appearance)

OK, I know I promisd no more Star Wars threads, but this was significant- and I know if I, the avid Star Wars enthusiast missed this, many of you did too.

My brother in law asked me if Steven Speilberg directed Episode One. I told him no, SS assisted GL in some of the scenes in Episode III, but he did not solely direct Episode I. Then he asked- Well, why are there two or three "ET's" in Episode I? I said "There are no ET's in Episode I." He said "Uh-Huh", I said , "Uh-Uh".

Well, I let him borrow the DVD, and he qued it up. And, as surely as I'd call in sick to spend the day with Vida Guerra, there are not one, but 3 ET's in a certain scene on Episode I....

PSS, Vader, and other Star Wars fans- had you noticed this?

I'll confirm the scene if you can state where you saw them... Trust me, they're there...

They're in the senate scene and it was done as a joke . . .

there are other Sci-Fi characters in that senate scene too . . . if you wanted to waste your time looking.

Really, I didn't see them... Then again, I didn't see ET the first 3-4 times I wached Episode I either... But, admitedly, after the first time watching the DVD end-to-end, all the rest of the times I watch it, I start where Qui Gon and Darth Maul begin their duel...

No sense in watching the rest of it... That's almost as boring as the first 90 minutes of Episode IV.

Yep, I've seen them - in the Senate Scene. I saw them when it was still running on the big screen.

Are you one of these Star Wars fans that has never seen the Storm Trooper hit his helmet on the bulkhead in the original Star Wars?

Have you scene the Millenium Falcon in Episode III, yet? I have. I'll confirm the scene if you can state where you saw it ... Trust me, it's there...
