    I don't think this was mentioned before. Sucked out after the Vengeance fires on the Enterprise while at warp.

    Why does Abrams insist on continuing to rape my childhood? Wasn't once enough? :rofl:

    Considering this is the second time the little guy has been blasted off a starship in these films, no.

    It'll be interesting to see if he survives to get blown up a third time in the next film. :lol:

    They should work that into Star Wars 7

    Yes. Easy to verify if you have the dvd/blu-ray.

    VFX-artist can be just as nerdy as us fans here; hence the Enterprise in BSG's rag-tag fleet or the Millennium Falcon on the Rodger Young in Starship Troopers

    I'd love to see pics of these! :p

    Also, now we're in a HD world has anyone got a screencap of the Millenium falcon in the big fleet battle against the Borg at the beginning of first contact?
    I remember reading ages ago exactly where it is supposed to be and how to spot it, but I could never see it with my non HD-eyes :p

    Thank you very much!

    For some reason I was looking at the final Borg Cube explosion, so I never had a chance! :p

    There ya' go: Khan designed the Vengance based on the fact he was a Star Wars fan.

    Artoo's last recorded words: "beep squeal rass!"
    Translation: Fuck off!

    Artoo extended his scomplink as Khan slowly undressed...

    R2-D2 appears in one form or another in every JJ Abrams movie. Like Slusho or the name Kelvin, it's just one of his in jokes.
