Reading is fundamental, my son. You said all he did was whine and rebel" I never used the word "all", what I said was, "Instead of the hero Anakin Skywalker was suppose to be, we only see him as a..."
Maybe "only" was true strong of a word, but I still stand by what I said. We should have seen him as a hero, not a rebellious teen. Also what's with the "my son" what makes you so convinced you are so much older than me?
"That's not what I'm saying at all. I don't know where you're getting this from. Correct me if I'm wrong, but to me it seems that you think that Anakin is a flat character in AOTC. He's not."
Okay, I didn't realize your attack was against my use of the world "only" I thought you were saying it was not true that he was a rebellious teen, with the fact that he saved Obi-Wan as proof that he wasn't.
"Those were sentence fragments used deliberately to make a point. I know how to write, thanks. And BTW, you meant to say " your English", not " you English"."
Hmm, don't see how talking like Yoda makes any points, but alright. Yeah, I have a tendacy to leave the "r"s off of my "your"s when I am typing in a hurry and not proof reading. Very clever on turning that around to prove I can't write and you can. I can see you are very experienced in arguing over the internet.
"That's good and fair. However, if AOTC and especially ROTS had been better movies, I don't think people would object to the CG as much."
Of course! No doubt about it. It could have been a full out CG film without a spec of live footage to be found anywhere, and I would have had nothing but praise for it had it been a good movie.
"Zing!"
Yeah, I figured you would answer with something like that.
"Your previous post was vaguely worded to the point where I had to guess at your meaning. You explained yourself much better this time."
I never even mentioned the artistry of it, odd you would assume that. You told me it was incorrect to compare it to the OT battles because of they were not as artistic. Not even sure how something like that has the ability to be incorrect. I said, "it by far has the greatest OTish moments of the whole PT in it. That saber battle at the end set the standard for saber battles so high, and unfortunately neither of the other two even tried." Not sure how that is vague, I simply meant that it set the standard for saber battles pretty high and the other two didn't even come close. I consider it an OTish moment because it was a moment in the film where I felt like I was watching a new Star Wars movie.
"It deserves that flak because it is a bad, bad, terrible movie" = plenty of answers? Forgive me if I'm still not convinced."
I never said that that one sentence was the plenty of good answers. I wrote more than just that.
"This is your second jab at my circular reasoning post. I'm wondering if you even know what that means."
Yes, I made it this far in life without knowing what circular reasoning was, you caught me. You are by far my intellectual superior.
"This answers an argument I didn't make."
I didn't intend to answer an arguement made by you with that last section of my last post. It was in response to your feeling that AOTC gets too much undeserved flak. I was just offering that I didn't feel they got undeserved flak, but rather quite the opposite.
