... This is very sad and tragic |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I watched parts of episode 1 the other night |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
tragic my arse. the sooner someone blows lucas's badgerface over his ranch with an over the counter firearm the better. he's the ronald macdonald of cinema. utter shite. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you're obviously not so much into the movie world |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It's not sad or tragic. It's a fucking relief that he won't be blighting the original trilogy anymore. Unless in 20 years he decides to super special edition the lot... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
his organic scripting will be sorely missed. Words truly flowed from him like kidney stones from a narrow urethra |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
i am quite into films actually...thats why i said what i did=] |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
thank fuck for that |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
done and done |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
he's thinking about doing a Star Wars TV show. yeah, that'll really work. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it worked for the munsters. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no it didn't. the munsters was SHIT! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it was funny until.... no wait, you're right |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
don't forget the 3D version of the series too! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the munsters in 3D? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I read that, when's that supposed to happen? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I didn't read that, god that doesn't like it should happen at all.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'm not sure, I haven't seen a formal release date for it. Kinda odd though. Has there been a series of anything that's been tweaked as much as the Star Wars epic? There's got to've been 20 different versions over the years. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
and now the bastard won't even do episodes 7 to 9, which would be about a million times more interesting than 1 to 3. George Lucas tests my patience.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
cummon, think about it... Jabba's lair...Leia's slave boobies in 3D! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I hope someone else picks up the story now, and Lucas moves on to something else. He's laid a pretty interesting foundation for this imaginary universe. If someone with some talent decides to develop it further it could be good. I thought the clone wars animated series was quite nice. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
her boobies are 2D anyway. :( |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

I didn't see that (except a few episodes in the beginning), so I didn't get the idea that general Grievous is partly robot - I thought he was completely robot, before the whole thing with the exposed heart. which made me go "..why the hell would a robot be coughing..? I mean, I like a grimey future like the next man, but still.." |
||||||||

Mace crushed grievous' chest with the force at the end of the animated series. That's why he was wheezy. Something that would never be explained if you hadn't seen the cartoons. Also, the scar on Anakin's face is someone touched upon in the series. One of the main problem with the films is that lucas didn't really introduce any characters that you actually care about in the prequels. The main cause for Anakin's fall is his overriding love for Padme, but their relationship is hollow because Lucas isn't capable of directing believable drama. That makes for some serious holes in the plot. I mean, why the fuck would Padme fall for Ani? He didn't really seem like a likable guy... I mean, sure he was a powerfull Jedi, but his personality was pretty snotty and their whole relationship didn't progress naturally. Someone else could develop that relationship in a side project and I think it'd lend some believability to the films that alread do exist. |

"Someone else could develop that relationship in a side project and I think it'd lend some believability to the films that alread do exist." Windows Update in other words: please no. |

that is one of the big problems with this trilogy - while watching Episode III I constantly was thinking things like "wait.. who is fighting what..? they're fighting droids..? and why are they fighting an army of droids again? and where did this general Grievous droid come from?" you didn't have any of that crap when watching the Real Trilogy. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Also, unless I missed something, the whole battle between the Sith and the Jedi is never explained satisfactorilly. Darth Maul said in the first that, "at last the Sith would have their revenge".. and this latest flick was titled Revenge of the Sith.. but, what exactly were they getting revenge for? Lucas could've spent five minutes explaining this crucial undrriding grudge in any of the six films, but to my knowledge he never even touched on it. There could be an entire film, or animated series, or whatever dedicated just to that, and if it were done properly it could be awesome. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

You're right. There was something definately different about Lucas' storytelling ability in the original trilogy. I mean, he was able to introduce characters like Lando.. a somewhat minor, but important character who did really shitty things, but eventually redeemed themselves, and so you ened up caring about them. I never cared about Padme, Qui Gon, Jar Jar, Mace, or any of the new characters who supposedly played very important roles in the prequels. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
very good example! you also knew who they were fighting and, basically, there was something to fight for. on a sidenote - didn't you just love that line at the ending when Yoda says to Obi-Wan "oh yeah, forgot about this, but Qui Gon isn't really dead-dead, I'll teach you how to contact him..". |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah, that whole "immortality" footnote was fucking lame. |
||||||||

Fox news just had a quick blurp on Episode 3 being pirated. They were saying "Watch out for the Episode 3 bootleg on the internet because they're all in Chinese and the subtitles are from the wrong movie. Must be a blow to all those bootleggers. Up next, can low fat food still make you fat? That and more after a the break." |

"shit! almost forgot about that!" |

from IMdb: "Revenge of the Sith' Leaked Online Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge Of The Sith has been leaked online on the same day as the blockbuster movie opened at cinemas around the world. A "work print" of the sci-fi film was circulated yesterday on an internet file-sharing network where more than 16,000 people began downloading it. An early version of Revenge Of The Sith, before final post-production work had taken place, the pirated copy contains a time code. Director George Lucas' company Lucasfilm declined to comment on the security breach. Following yesterday's international release, Revenge Of The Sith now holds the record for the widest simultaneous film release of all time." |

George Lucas: Hmm, accidently, despite the fact I can't direct I have employed great actors, special effects guys, editors, designers... wow, out of the codswallop I wrote they have manged to make it really good... hmm, what if I wait untiul it's all computers, get some nerds in that have even less of a clue than me and then let them fuck it up... oh yes.... "Yes, the Sith need their revenge because of... oh, fan fiction, probably". |
||||||||

I hated ep 1 and 2 so i just wanted 3 to have lots of fighting and it did. I got what I wanted. |

Its like if you try to make a sculpture and fail repeatedly, you lose patience and make a penis sculpture for fun. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that's the thing.. he can actually direct.. I think his direction in "THX 1138" is pretty good. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah so why dont you close this thread |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
How is that movie? I like the new dvd packaging. Apparently there are lots of white sets. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
go and figure it out, smartiepants. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
anyone else but me not bothered to watch ANY of the new star wars films? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i haven't... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
this weekend i watched the last 3 episodes again, with focus on Vader. a totally different experience from the first 3 episodes. he's more of a lost human being for me now. IV,V,VI >>>> I,II,III with no doubt. Lucas lost the spirit. the force left him obviously. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i wonder if films I, II and III will be known as 'the star wars other trilogy' |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i guess the second one stupid prequels eh? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I refer to it as the second trilogy, or The Bastard. and on the other side we have the Real Trilogy. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
who cares about star wars anyway |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
of course its over, it was released 20 years ago. |
