# Doesn't the whole Stormtrooper thing
get explained in the new film? They're very necessary as anyone who intends to be even slightly evil (and Darth and the Emp are pretty high on the evil scale) needs an army of willing idiots to send charging to their death in pursuit of the hero.
Any American army soldiers here? I imagine that to be quite similar...

# Hmm, think so.
I don't understand why they bothered to replace an army of droids (never get sick, no morals, totaly subservient etc) with a bunch of incompetent, vat grown men in plastic suits. Good job they did though, I couldn't see Luke passing himself of as a droid very convincingly.

# It would
take too many of those control ships, which are easily disabled by small children accidently crashing in to them. The risks are too high.
