    Actually, it IS the wrong movie, because that saying was in the original star wars movies, which came far before episode 1, when it was reitterated.
    Incorrect.

    The only time Yoda says that 'fear leads to anger' speech is to young Anakin in Episode I, (which was filmed fourth, but set before the others). To be sure, he lectures Luke about the pitfalls of the dark side in Episodes V and VI.

    BTW, I always thought the FFVI Atma Weapon sword looked like a blue lightsaber, minus the buzzing sound effects of course. But then again, lightsaber references are a dime a dozen.

    Also the way Kefka (SPOILER) boots Emperor Gesthal off the Floating Continent reminded me of the way Darth Vader threw Emperor Palpatine down the shaft of Death Star II. Emperors just can't get help these days.

    LOL - very true. I believe many of the entries I quoted are considered by the FFCompendium as "theories."

    The Red Wings were a reference to Star Wars? I need to see the old movies again. I don't know too much about them. I thought the Red Wings were a reference to the Detroit hockey team!

    It's a reference to them, regardless.
