Well i have to say that the movie was definitely more like a pilot episode and a really bad one at that. I hated that thing and will never be able to bring myself to watch it ever again (the first ever star wars related thing that i will ever only see once. Even the holiday special i've been able to watch more than once....just.) . I thought that this was what we had in store for the TV series the same as you vaderisnothayden. But i was wrong. They almost seem two separate entities. I'm almost ashamed to say it but i'm really enjoying the TV series. yeh there have been a couple of duff episodes and the recent jar jar one wanted me to reach for the sick bag, but there are some great stories coming out of it. It seems to be acknowledging the OT hell of a lot more than the PT ever did. I never usually judge a TV series on its pilot but this time i did and i admit i was wrong to do so. Hell just look at the original pilot for Star Trek, "the cage". that was a total piece of shit and a completely different tone than the series would become. And now that Tv series is considered a classic.

It does make me laugh me how people can say something is shit before they have even seen it
