I was also thinking since Luke is the one that pulled the trigger, what is his body count. Does this make him the second largest murderer in the galaxy after The Grand Admiral blowing Alderaan out of space? I got a cutaway of the Death Star but no actual census of crew. Way to go Luke! How many Imperial citizens did you kill? How many Imperial troopers died that might have been sympathetic to the rebellion? Guess we'll have to ask the Rebel Flyboy with the hots for his sister.
I forget which novel it was, but it was pre-Yuzon Vong, and Luke's companion at the time asked him if he knew how many people were on the Death Star at the time of its destruction. I don't recall the exact number, but Luke said it was over 1 million.

NOTE: I sincerely hope that James Cameron does the movie and not the people who made Alien 3 and 4. oh those were such bad bad movies it was ciminal to even think of making them.

In a battle between Babylon 5 ships and Star Trek ships, the Babylon 5 ships would win because they have W.C. and Star Trek ships don’t. I base my theory on the fact that in all the Star Trek episodes I have see, they never use, refer or show a W.C. not even on the official blueprints.

Watch Alien 4 and take a shot everytime a Jesus reference pops up.

I sense much allusion in this one.
