Since you have to borrow the stock, someone has to loan it to you. Typically, your broker would loan you the stock. SCOX is not widely held and there aren't many shares outstanding, so it is known as a hard to borrow stock, making it very hard to short. I write software for a stock trading company and SCOX is on our list of stocks we can't short.
To add to what you are saying, the movies were terrible because there was no character development at all and it was impossible to understand the (poorly written) dialog. Episode I is a case in point, there is tons of dialog about trade guilds etc, none of which you can hear, because of music, accents, or effects noise. I find that hearing the dialog in a movie helps me enjoy it more. Lucas sent the message that the dialog was un-important by making it impossible to hear.
