So, ya want to known about me, eh?

Postby Link Antilles » Mon Aug 11, 2003 11:22 pm

Welcome to my bio!
I'm not sure what to write, so I'm just goin' write!
First of all, my real name is.... nah, I'll keep it secret. I was born in Greenville, SC which is my current locale. I'm sixteen and about six feet tall. I've had a fairly normal life. Dominations, mean nothing to me. I'm a Christian. I accepted Jesus into my life at the age of 12. Sadly, for the past four years me and my family have been searching for a church home and still haven't found one. My favorite book of the Bible is Revelations. It's very interesting book to read, for me.

Personality:
I'm slightly impulsive, stubborn, and hard to annoy. I'm not very quick to trust people for my own reasons. I enjoy listening or reading what people have to say.

Interests Updated:

Where to begin? Well, as you already know, I'm a die-hard Starwars fan. I also love playing Video games on my GCN, Xbox, GBA, SNES, and PC. Sadly, my NES died. My three all-time favorite games are: 1. Zelda III 2. Final Fantasy VI 3. Metroid III. Chrono Trigger's up there too. I enjoy soccer. I'm usaully on defense. In my free time when not playing Video games or hanging out with friends I like to: go shooting, not hunting, surf around online, listen to music, and DRIVING!!!

Future Occupation:

I want to get involved in the Gaming Industry, either in testing, programming, story, or level design. Right now, I've signed up for a C++ programming class, been working on a War Carft III campaign, and looking for a job.



That's all, for now. I'm very slow at typing or my grammar's pretty bad!

I'll answer any questions.

Fav? That's a hard one... ESB and ROTJ are closely tied, for me.
ANH is not far behind. ACK! I can't decide! lol
What's yours? Also, who's your favorite character?

I think ESB is my fave flick, with ANH veeery close behind. Hehe.

Fave character? That's easy: Obi-Wan :D He's just awesome. Also Han and Leia and even Vader (NOT Anakin, lol) are pretty cool.

Empire Strikes Back for me too! I used to have a bunch of the original Hoth playsets as a kid. I'd actually take them out in the snow and play with them...

ROTJ for me. Especially the remastered edition...the Ewok song is too awesome! And my favorite character is Han Solo. Could be because my favorite actor is Harrison too, but go fig. ^^

Awesome. Blizzard is 1337. Which ones do you like? My faves are Starcraft/Exp and Diablo II/Exp.

And as for Star Wars...That's a hard one. Prolly RotJ, but ANH was cool too.

Yeah, that's my favorite part of the SE ROTJ, it's a great way to end the SW Trilogy. Before that, it was the scene when the A-wing crashes into the bridge of the SSD.



Spencer wrote:Awesome. Blizzard is 1337. Which ones do you like? My faves are Starcraft/Exp and Diablo II/Exp.


Starcraft w/ x-pack and Warcraft III w/ x-pack.
I'm not very good at either game, online. I bought 'em for the story and mainly the map editor.


BTW, my favorite Starwars characters are Han, Wedge, Vader, and THE JAWAS!!!! UTINNI!!!! :rock:

Glad to meet you. I'm a fan of a good number of those things myself.

I think I'd have to say ROTJ, though unlike most people here, I didn't really like the ending. Perhaps that's because the cuteness factor doesn't do anything for me. The whole series ends with the Ewoks? I want a movie 7.

I used to like ROTJ a lot, but...hmmm. Something about it keeps it from being one of my faves. I think it's the Ewok factor...

ESB was cool because it was so dark...I dunno why I like that but I did. It was so...dramatic and I liked it even though all that sucky stuff happened. And Yoda! Yoda rules. :rock:

Although I really like ANH too because it's just so...triumphant is a good word, I think. And the second half of the movie flows well. And I LOVE the Battle of Yavin. So cool...! Not to mention the killer soundtrack. Woot!

For SW, I'd have to say ESB is the best, but ANH has the best theme-character experience.

I cann't agree with you, I'm afraid. After hearing what Lucas wanted to do with 1-3, I know why he couldn't do them in the beginning. The technology is supposed to be WAY better in the prequils, and the full series is designed to show one thing only. George Lucas' belief that our salvation comes through our children. Whether you believe it or not, the full set of books, er, movies DO support this theme. That said, I still like the first ones better. At least I did until Luke Skywalker started doing the voice acting for anime...

Well, I agree in some ways, but in other parts I'm not so sure. I mean, the fighting in the original trilogy was closer to real swordfighting, but that doesn't make for incredibly interesting viewing. The fight scenes in later ones were well done, though there certainly are the elements of bad acting, bad scripts, Jar Jar, etc.

But the Yoda scene in 2, that has to have some redeeming value, right?

Don't get me started on the bad acting!

Yes, I do have to admit that my favorite lightsaber fight sence is in Episode I.

Yeah, YODA ROCKS! :thumb:

RotJ. Jedi Luke taught Jabba a lesson. Love the start of that movie. "Impressive"
I also like how calm and controlled Qui-gon Jin (sp?) was. Its cool to just meditate in the middle of a duel.

Whole lot of winking going on here. ;) Oh, uh, I like all the star wars. Yoda especially.
"So David said to Michal, "It was before the LORD, who chose me instead of your father and all his house, to appoint me ruler over the people of the LORD, over Israel. Therefore I will play music before the LORD. And I will be even more undignified than this, and will be humble in my own sight. But as for the maidservants of whom you have spoken, by them I will be held in honor."

2 Samuel 6: 21&22



"I am going to take this bucket of water and pour it on the flames of hell, and then I am going to use this torch to burn down the gates of paradise so that people will not love God for want of heaven or fear of hell, but because He is God."

Maybe there's hope for No. 3, but after No. 2, I lost faith in George's directing abilities.


Oh yeah, You and Rashiir just reminded me of a thread I saw on Ep. III. I'll post it later.
