[Guest Kether]

Revenge of the Sith.

interesting because return of the jedi was originally going to be revenge of the jedi, but they decided to make it a bit less nasty

 

 

o well.

 

maybe it wont be as bad as episode 1 and 2.

[Guest Kether]

Episode II was badass.

[Alex]

Revenge of the Smiths.

[Guest Kether]

That's what they were going to call the Matrix II.

Artoo does NOT have rockets in his legs.

 

Ep 1 and 2 were nothing like as quality as 4, 5 and 6.

 

which is a bit of a pity.

It made for a good spectacle. We could easily say that his rocket pack legs were removed between episode II and IV because it made him too at risk from explosions when he got shot but who gives a damn?   Episode VI is pretty gash, muppets in space anyone? The dialogue in movies IV - VI is just as naff as it was in episodes I and II but the effects are shit due to the films being made so long ago.   The main difference now is that you watched the original films as a starry eyed kid and loved them and now you're a hypercritical geek that has to over analyse everything to death until there's no actual enjoyment left to be found.

How are they not?

 

Shit dialogue, massive special effects, fun storyline and general space opera.

 

Seem pretty similar to me.

[Alex]

To me the newest editions, though great fun, are a little too clinical in delivery. They lack the wobbly set pieces and rubberised aliens. In contratst to the slick, but empty feeling "prequals". The actors seem to be a little too removed from their surroundings, maybe a result of having shot many scenes on a green sound stage.

 

Though thoroughly enjoyable, they do lack a certain charm I had grown accustomed to with the originals.

[Phil rr]

4 5 and 6 - stronger dialogue/characters, "real" special effects (not CG)

 

1 and 2 - amazing special effects which almost overtook the (less classy) dialogue.

 

 

1 and 2 had more of a "we have to make a few things happen to rpepare for 4 5 and 6" feel about it,

 

4 5 and 6 felt more "this is what's hapening".

[Phil rr]

what makes this "argument" even more pointless is that if someone said to me "episode 1 and 2" were crap, i'd say that they weren't as good as the others, but they were still pretty good, and not crap.

 

lets argue about politics or religion instead.

star wars the original movie was tops but the rest aint my cuppa tea
