Re: Leia
The infant baby girl has a super-photographic memory at the time of birth to remember her mum is pretty but sad before she dead ... heheplatium wrote:I remember a scene when luke ask leia abt their mum... leia said she was a lonely woman n die a sad death... but we all know padme die during childbirth.... conspiracy??

May the Force Live Long & Prosper ...
Re: Leia
The only one in the Star Wars universe whom I can recall with photographic memory is Winters. She was required to carry mission where only she can carry out because of her photographic memory.Dr EMH wrote:The infant baby girl has a super-photographic memory at the time of birth to remember her mum is pretty but sad before she dead ... heheplatium wrote:I remember a scene when luke ask leia abt their mum... leia said she was a lonely woman n die a sad death... but we all know padme die during childbirth.... conspiracy??

relationship
One other consideration is that because Luke is strong with the force, probably has a high level of mediclorins (not sure abt spelling), it can be assumed that Leia would have a certain about of the force in her as well. The force may be latent in her as she was never trained in the jedi ways so she may be able, if she puts her mind at it, to feel certain things and that's why she was not overly shocked when Luke told her that he was her brother. In that scene, Luke asks her to search her feelings, a jedi trait.

That would be midi-chlorians , but you are absolutely right .... Leia did search her feelings, and although the force was not as strong in her as in Luke , she was still able to sense the truth .
Talking aboout midi-chlorians .... I really hate that concept . When QuiGon Jin first spoke about it in EPI , I went " What ? " in the theatre and sat there in the darkened theatre , totally shellshocked by it.
The Force should have been left as something mystical instead of trying to explain it in "scientific" terms .....
The science of the force
I think that when GL did EP1, the Force after the original triology, had been left largely unexplained and was seen as some quasi instinct cum sect. Perhaps GL was jealous that an earlier sci-fi creator named Gene Roddenberry had created Star Trek which when it premiered, it was far fetched but a lot of what Gene had in ST was founded on some form of science. I've read some of the research papers from the University of Berkely and they do back up Gene's theory of warp speed for example. Hence, his creations have some science to it. So GL got envious.

I don't think the Midi-Chlorian concept was well-liked by most fans . Unless I am very wrong, they were never mentioned again in EPII or III , correct ?
GL should go back and erase that from EPI when he does a special edition of that film !
