Why would I watch UPN? There's nothing good there anymore.
I can't wait to see what will replace UPN next year!

An ISD exploding outside the window while he's saying the line proves absolutely nothing, beyond that an ISD exploded.Well I'm pretty sure it was the Rebels who blew it up. Unless an inept Imperial officer accidentally pressed the "DESTROY SHIP" button.
That's beside the point. According to you, it happened while the order to attack the SSD was given, not after.
Also, it still took the majority of the fleet, including most of the heavy cruisers, to take out the SSD's shields, which made it possible for an out-of-control A-wing to be able to smash into the bridge in the first place. If the SSD hadn't already lost shields and taken a lot of damage, the A-wing would've been nothing.Yes and Starfleet and the other major powers in Star Trek have large fleets too. I'm sure they could take out an ISD or a SSD. Moreso if the Borg were involved too, and Species 8472. On the same side of course.
The opening post in the thread speaks of the Federation versus the Empire. Not everyone else versus the Empire. Also, the Federation doesn't have a fleet anywhere near the size of the Imperial starfleet. The Federation is 8,000 or 10,000 light-years across at the widest spot. The Empire spans and entire galaxy (which is 20,000 light-years wider than our own).
Consider this... The Death Star can destroy an entire planet with a single shot. The Death Star was stated as having half the power of the combine Imperial starfleet.Yes but the Death Star has the most ludicrous weakness. One of the Star Trek races would figure it out and waste the Death Star.
The Rebels found out because they stol the DS plans. There's not gaurantee that anyone from Trek can do the same.
That means the the Imperial starfleet has the combined power to destroy two planet simutaneously. A couple ISDs could completely frag the crust of a planet in just an hour or two. But it would've taken a fleet of several dozen Cardassian and Romulan warships about eight hours to completely devestate the crust of a planet. Which means that two ISDs can do what several dozen Trek warships can do, and faster.Yeah but it only took eight little 8472 bioships and an amplifier vessel to wipe out a Borg planet. They could wipe the floor with the Death Star, the ISD's and the SSD.
Again, Feds versus Imps, not Imps versus everyone else. Otherwise, I'd agree.
Sorry about the format errors, I couldn't seem to get everything right...

More like the majority of the Rebel fleet attacking the Super Star Destroyer (I'm guessing that's the one you're talking about?).Remember, Admiral Ackbar ordered the fleet to concentrate all fire on the SSD. Seriously, how would you expect a few small fighter to take out a 14 kilometer long ship? Even the smaller ISDs are almost 2 kilometers long!
Not quite.
When he says that line, in the window you can see a StarDestroyer explode.
Later, once a small A-Wing crashes into the bridge of the SSD, they lose control of it and it crashes into the Death Star.
I'm pretty certain that a squad of Defiants could take out a SD and the Federation Fleet firing all their weapons at the SSD bridge would be enough.

I don't smoke in enclosed areas because I can't stand the smell of my own smoke around me. Plus, it'll leave a smell where ever I am. I always smoke outside, no matter the weather, and I never smoke around anyone.
But as for this article, shouldn't they be trying to do something about talking on cell phones while driving before even thinking of smoking and driving?

A few Defiant-class ships versus a single ship that has individual weapon emplacements numbering in the hundreds, if not thousands... Sorry, but no.A few Y-Wings, X-Wings and B-Wings were able to take out a Star Destroyer in Return Of The Jedi.
A Defiant Class starship has far more weaponary and armour than those little fighters.

You know, that link brings us to the community boards for that site, not the games. Or, at least, I can't find links tot he games there.
This link will bring you to a p[age where you can access the games. (Games at top, along with links to a FAQ, forums, and others.)

I heard the last few fragments of this story on the news early this morning.I knew GTA:San Andreas was a mature game,but I had no idea about the sex scenes....
My nephew plays a lot of games on his PS2 and XBOX,but he's not interested in games like GTA.If he was I'd let him play it.I let him watch violent horror films (which sometimes have nudity) and he handles it pretty well.
I think it depends on the kid.Some are more impressionable (and unstable
) than others...Agreed. I also think it has more to do than just the games. I think it also has to do with how the parents/siblings/adult figures react to it. I think that will make more of an impression on the kid than the game itself. For the most part, that is.

It's interresting to see a person with a post that has a post count of 0.
And shouldn't this be in the arcade section?

Star Trek & Star Wars in a single movie?

Maybe it seemed to sink from the camera angle's perspective? Also the second Death Star was 160 km in diamter, it's possible that it actually exerted a gravitational pull on it.
As for shields, yes, ISDs and SSDs both have shields. However, if you read the novelisation to Return of the Jedi (novelisations of the movies, along with the scripts to the movies and the movies themselves, make up the highest form of canon according to Star Wars canon policy), by the time the attack on the SSD was ordered it had already taken a beating and had lost its shields, and the attack was to finally remove it as a threat.
