HOW THE HELL CAN I ERASE THIS PIECE OF SHIT FROM MY MEMORY????
I've been a fan of Star Wars since 1977. The PT, though not of the same calibre as the OT, i still enjoyed seeing for the first time. But this... How the hell anyone can say this is good is beyond me.
This should have remained what it was meant to be and that is a TV cartoon series. Releasing 3 episodes strung together is an insult to Star Wars fans. So its supposed to be aimed at kids. So why not just keep it for the TV where the kids can watch it for free? Money, that's the only reason. Lets see.... kids tickets are usually half the price of adult ones so the parents then have to take their kids to the cinema and pay full price. Great, now more money is coming in. Well not from me. I'm just glad i didn't pay to have to sit through this abomination. The fanboy excuse of "see it through a child's eyes" is complete crap.Most kids that were at the showing were restless and bored, some even leaving half way through. i have never seen this at any other Star Wars movie i have ever watched at the cinema.
What happened to the promise that the animation would "not be like anything we've seen before"? well i, for one, am glad we have never seen anything like it before because the animation was truly outdated. there was just no suspense in any part of the movie. All the battles, we knew who lives, so they became pointless and boring. Why keep flogging the clone wars to death? They could have done so much with an animated series without having to go over old ground.
Lucas screwed up with AOTC when we never got to see the clone wars, as he had promised, so we now get lumbered with this.
Call me a hater as much as you want, but know this before you generalise me.... i wasn't, until now.
Since your little "fanboy jab was directed at me I'll just say this:
Your "Star Wars Revisited" is merely "Star Wars: The Extra Special Edition." So by OT.com standards your opinion on this matter is invalid. You are as bad as Lucas if not worse. You know what would make Star Wars even better? More Tie Fighters! (lol)
We need less childish drama over this kids movie. Didn't like it? Too bad. Stop acting like Lucas has slighted you personally. Some of you just need to let it go.
This isn't like Greedo shooting first. This isn't the Prequel Trilogy. Its a kids movie. Its fun and incredibly stupid. Some of you have forgotten how to experience joy. Others are just too old for this shit. Most people who saw the original SW in the theaters are at or over 40 years old. That's your problem right there. Well that and a complete lack of youthful imagination.
