Top 5 Moments in the Original Trilogy
Time
Well to choose a few...and not in any order!!


1) Luke's rescue from Cloud city's underdome and the chase after in 'Empire' (Just brilliant)
2) Luke and Leia's scene in the Ewok village from 'Jedi - The Brother s revelation
3) "Where did you dig up that old fossil?" - I love that whole conversation...And one I'm always repeating for some reason
4) "The force is with you young Skywalker, but you are not a Jedi yet! - Love it
5 The very last scene in 'Empire'. From the shot of the Falcon connected to the medical frigate, to Luke and Leia looking out to the stars. Their lives changed forever. The music, the lack of dialog, the colours.....but it's the music that makes that scene. All my faveourite themes played out in such a moving way. So sad

Man I love that film!!

The objections I have always had have been to the plot changes - i.e. Greedo shooting first, Jabba's scene in ANH, Sy Snootles' new musical number (which interferes with the flow of the movie), etc. It has also been to changes that have made the movie inferior - i.e. overdubs of that dodgy New Zealand voice for Boba Fett, Hayden Christensen as the ghost of Anakin, etc.



All the edits on this site (Adigitalman's Empire & Jedi...Darth Editous' ANH) do what you pretty much say man...It's like watching the O-OT but all cleaned up an' shit

Well I've just seen all 24 episodes....Yes I know you guys over the pond have already seen it, but in the Uk we're officially only on episode 8 or 9, so to have seen them all has made all my girlfriends friends very jealous, and me a very happy guy!


Oh, and I thought it was very good indeed.



Just can't believe I have to wait another year to find out what exactly happens next..

Unless.....

Any of you kind souls are taping season 2 and have available for a torrent?!??!

Bingo.


Lucas has made no secret that he never had the PT written way back then, so I don't see your point?!?!

He had a very rough outline to the story...VERY ROUGH!!!!!!

Not that you covers are bad..just the picture you've decided to use


What? You have a problem with Charles Grodin being used as a stand-in for ol' Harry Ford?


Ha..yeah, never noticed that.
It's the cheesy grin Yoda has that really puts me off!!

Success - yes

Good films - no

Thing with the Mummy films, is apart from Brendon 'I'm an idiot' Fraser..is that, especially Mummy returns, is that it relied to much on CGI...and the CGI looked so fake..(please no SW jokes here)

And 'Van Helsing' was just a pile of shit...I mean the guy had more bloody gadgets than Batman..and when was is set 18th, 19th Century...what a load of tosh!

Anyway Van Helsing was considered a box office flop.....So God knows what Flash Gordon will be like?!?
