INTERIOR: REBEL BASE -- CORRIDOR

Pilots and gunners race to their waiting snowspeeders. Ice
and snow begin falling from the walls of the corridor, shaken
by the pounding Imperial snow walker as they draw ever nearer.

TRENCH OFFICER: (over comlink) We have spotted Imperial walkers!

I kept waiting for it to cock it's leg up against one of the tree's!

On a serious note, that is amazing technology, especially over such rough terrain.

Notice how closely it mimics the action of two skinny humans facing each other.

Just stick the heat seeking anti-personel weapons on the back, and you're set!

The first movie IS authentic. The "Beta 1.2" is a spoof of the original. It is two people mimicing the original poster's video. Absolutely hilarious! If you look closely, in the slow-motion of the side kick (at about 39 seconds) -- just before they fall over, the guy on the right reaches out with his right arm to break their fall.

Love a good parody!!:D:):D:):D
