For all you Star Wars fans...
I have heard from reliable sources that in the third Star Wars movie, Revenge of the Sith, that Mr. Lucas will have the younger, more soldier like Imperials. I have also heard, that among these 'soldier like Imperials' will be the younger General Veers, Captin Needa, and Admiral Ozzel, and many of the others featured in the three classic films. Who do you think should be cast as these men? For General Veers, I think that it should be Jude Law. It's just me, but hey, in the Empire Strikes Back, the guy who played Veers was a mighty handsom...

1. General Veers?
That would be Julian Glover, also seen as the baddie in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade.

2. What about 'General Veers'?
Edited on Sun Oct-24-04 03:42 PM by luvamericahatebush
I LIKE him. He's awesome. I thought he was the coolest baddie in Star Wars... except Darth Vader, of course. Oh, but thanks for the actors name.

4. How about Captain Piett?
Apart from Veers, he's the only Imperial not choked out by Vader. I guess Vader favored him.

5. Who knows?
Maybe the thing a friend of mine said about Vader slash isn't so false....

I need to pull my mind outta the gutter, now. Bad mental image.

6. Veers... played by Julian Glover. Awesome actor...
Late 40s at the time as I recall... Not the best looker, but a very versatile and competent actor; misused in that movie. Best seen in For Your Eyes Only (1981), Blake's 7: "Breakdown" (1978), Doctor Who: The Crusade (1965) and "City of Death" (1979). Also in "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade" (1989), but the movie was too campy for me to sit through it and it deserved to have a more serious feel, especially with an actor of his caliber in it.

7. Well, I thought he was cute.
But maybe I just have a thing for good looking fellows in those green suits and little hats :9
