I won't spend a single dime on this movie. I remember a time when seeing something SW-related would get me excited and I would get that fun, butterfly feeling in my gut. Not anymore...

That makes sense.
This way they can make people buy the show twice! Wait, plus the thater ticket. Its a cash cow that Walt Disney could have never imagined.

i think their are three writers because they are combining several of the tv episodes together to make this movie. Though some material will be exclusive to the movie and an eventual dvd release.

Walt combined Davy Crockett episodes and put a movie on the big screen in the 50's. And cleaned up to boot! I think there might have been a Zorro movie done that way too. ;)

Coincidentally, my Hyperspace subscription is running out this week. I'm in no hurry to renew.

The pilot episodes of the 70s Buck Rogers and Battlestar Galactica were also shown as "movies" in theaters. It was considered kind of tacky. Never thought Star Wars would end up doing what it's cheap imitators did.
Actually, the Buck Rogers character dates back to the 1930's. If you're talking about the series from that time, eh, it was cheesy.The pilot episodes of the 70s Buck Rogers and Battlestar Galactica were also shown as "movies" in theaters.

You wanna know what? I actually and truly enjoyed RotS. Shocking, isn't it?
I'm only going to rent this via NetFlix. Whoopty-fucking-doo. Or something.

Sadly, the tamer, two part recut tv version with extra scenes isn't on the DVD set.
The Galactica pilot film was intended to be shown theatrically. (In Sensurround!) That's why there are two versions. Baltar is executed by the Cylons in the movie, yet he's spared in the tv series.

Err... okay, so exactly which fear was confirmed, again? Looked acceptable to me. A bit flashy, but flashy never bothered me that much.

That its going to be filled with terrible so called humour and using flashy action scenes to try and compensate for the weak story and dialogue. I mean, come on, the way those bloody droids campily screaming "woooh" when a blast hits near them and that stupid "losing its balance and falling" crap was unbelievably cringe worthy. If this clip was supposed to be a bit of a showcase for the new movie then just how bad is the rest of it?

Just remember: this is basically a really well-done saturday morning cartoon for 10 year olds. Putting it in theaters is decieving because it makes you expect something at least on the quality of a straight-to-video feature. But its just a kids cartoon show arbitrarily put on the big screen in a massive milk at the cash cow. If this thing didn't have Star Wars in the title no one would want to see it beyond its weekly episode on TV as viewed by twelve year olds.

Well its looks like i was pretty correct on my worries after seeing the trailer. This movie (and series) is going to suck. A new 2 minute clip has just come online and it made me cringe (you'll see what i mean right from the start). Doubt this will be online for long though.

So, this is basically another prequel movie only without live actors this time? George Lucas has finally gone and done away with those pesky actors- he's been wanting to do that for years! :-P

Not that that is going to stop you from dreaming… Only in this case, Gaffer is actually a guy.

Now all he needs to do is invent a way to do V.O. using computers, then he can cut human beings out of the process completely. Synthetic voice stuff has actually gone a long way since those monotone Stephen Hawking things, its probably not long off if someone invested a few million dollars of research into it. And you could program the inflection to whatever you wanted since it wouldn't be translating live, it would be just like animating images--crap, no one tell Lucas, he'll actually start to do it. Haven't you seen him directing? His rare conversations with actors are obvious and simplistic observations about motivation, only explained with horrendous and stuttered communication, or else acting out how to say the line for the actor. So this has basically been his goal all along.

Say what you will, but I'd pay to see any movie made like that, Star Wars or not.

Me too because I would be curious to how the experiment came out but I don't think anyone with a head on their shoulders would actually endorse it as a legitimate alternative to using actors.

Personally, I think this trailer is a lot better than the first. Makes me even more so enticed to see the film that I was.

Proof enough that George Lucas wants to create something that will always be worse than the last installment. Did we seriously need another thing about the clone wars?? I mean, why didn't Lucas just integrate all this stuff into the PT?(wait a minute-I just answered my own question). I can never believe now that Lucas has done anything good for society. I can now only conclude that SW was a sadistic experiment to throw millions of people into a pit of despair that is caused by his perpetual disregard for the preservation of film. Think about it, SW itself is just a third-rate knockoff of books and films made by Kurosawa, Herbert, and Asimov. Now he has KOTCS, which really was the fourth-worst film ever, as I sadly predicted over a year ago.
