...Elsewhere, Lucas uses the old movies with less trite but equally lame intent. Qui-Gon needs to appear wise; thus, Lucas puts him in the back of a sea-pod cockpit, murmuring confident wisdom ("There's always a bigger fish.") just as Kenobi once presided behind Han Solo's pilot seat. Jabba's dancing girls return as masseuse-extras in a Tatooine hanger, once again serving to sprinkle Lucas' archetypal myth with just enough sexiness to be annoying...

The fish range in size from one to two feet long, and although they are fed daily, they appreciate dining hall treats---not to mention the occasional suck on a meaty finger or toe. But have no fear, unlike the students at the business school, these toothless fish are not of the piranha persuasion...
