Plain and simple: No. It would not work for me.

As I have said before, I am avoiding this stupid crap. The trailers to me show how impressive, NOT, it is. The cgi looks stupider than any full cgi movie I have ever seen, the ideas behind it sound pathetic, and just about everything else about it sucks too. This filth should be given no view entirely.

I am not looking forward to this at all. The series ended for me after T2 with no need for further sequels and as far as I am conerned the first two are all that matter. T3 was uneccessary rubbish and the new tv series is in the same category for me. I'm avoiding this and any future Terminator films entirely. This is just my opinion and I respect everyone else's entirely.

Just came back from the movie more than half an hour ago, and I say it absolutely was the best film of 2008. The story was as good as Batman Begins, and better then it in some respects. The film rocked from start to finish. The acting in the film shines greatly: Especially with Christian Bale being the best Batman ever and Heath Ledger (R.I.P.) completely nailing the role of the Joker. The effects were on right on spot and the directing was first rate, just like the previous one. I am very much looking forward to the next one.

I absolutely agree with everyone on how stupid, disrespectful, insulting, offensive, degrading, and abominal the Hayden force spirit change is. It is the worst change done to a film in the history of the whole planet. As I have said before, just looking at it or even thinking about it is enough to miff me off big time! Blackjack is correct: Sebastian Shaw's Anikan force spirit represents his redeming and release from the dark side, whereas Hayden's does not represent anything of the sort, it is just an absolute crap change, plain and simple.

Oh, I am so looking forward to this film. The orignal Batman Begins was one of the best films of 2005. This film could possibly be better than the first and there is that likely chance that it will be the best film of the year. And right now I'd love to see Christopher Nolan do another one too.

I saw the film in the theater yesterday, and I found it to be very good. Is it as great as the first three to me? No, it isn't and to me it won't ever be. But I did enjoy it. IMO it was much better than most of the theatrical garbage released these days and it was nice to see Indiana Jones return too. As for sequels to it, I believe I'll pass. Well, this is just my opinion, I know you all have yours too and I respect them.

I saw the trailer and I must say, I am not looking forward to this. The cgi looks crappy and the design does not look so hot to me. I'll just skip this cheesiness.

When I do get kids, I'll show them the originals first (the OOT) then the Prequels. It was the way I saw the movies, and I feel it is the best order as well. I do not intend to show them the SE unless they really want to see it. I say this especially for the ANH SE with Greedo firing at all, added droid + jawa slapstick in Mos Eisley, and Jabba scene and ROTJ's Jedi Rocks and that stupid crappy Hayden force spirit image. ESB SE was more tolerable than the other two. In my opinion the original prints of the OT and the PT are really the only absolutely necessary Star Wars films necessary to see. It is just my opinion and I do not mind if you disagree at all.

What a loss his death is to the acting community. I really liked him. Sad isn't it, to see him go. He was a great actor and we'll miss him. R.I.P. Charlton Heston, you were a great actor.

I noticed in the film that whenever Vader fired at someone, it took a couple to a few seconds before one of his bolts actually hit his target. When he fired at Luke Han got him before he could fire a shot that could hit him.

I agree with what Mielr said. These will probably be the same transfers. The information were given implies it is so. I have the first set at home and I don't need these new ones. They are a ripoff.

EDIT: I also say what Darth Evil said is true as well.

I too would like to just see the film done right. As for me, I liked Peter Jackson's films of the LOTR books. I agree with DAYV, Peter is the best man for the job.
