Anyone actually believe he'll go and do his esoteric pieces one day?

Whoops.

And - General Grievous should've just been Count Dooku. I was not impressed by yet another overblown CG character. Why have someone with a voice like Christopher Lee and kill him in the first ten minutes? Fucking stupid - and what do you know, Peter Jackson did the same thing.

I've always hated that scene in ROTK. It's like Open Mic night in Middle Earth...... every noble king and wizard gets a chance to mouth off at Christopher Lee. YAWN.

Where was I.... yeah, the idea of him being a reconstructed Maul is basically silly. I just think he shouldn't have been in the movie at all.

Head over to your local Gamestop and buy a crappy used Game Cube, they are only $39.99 and it will give you something to do. If you are hard up for cash, find out the location of your local library. They have books you can rent for free! Free entertainment! You could even volinteer there and teach kids how to read. There is no need to waste your life like this. You only get one go around at this, everyday you are a little older and closer to death. Make the best of the time you have. It is really sad to go on for month about being called a "fuckwit" by some dude on the internet you don't even know.

And yet you took the time to call him on it. Hehe.

I've always loved how "BRING MY SHUTTLE" went to "Contact the Star Destroyer and arrange to have Shuttle 3 sent to my landing pad because I don't really like Shuttle 2 and Shuttle 1 is under repair and ensure they park at landing pad 6B because I plan to buy some salted peanuts and an icy beverage before my ascent to the mothership".

I dunno, I kind of preferred his business-like, "I'm pissed off" approach in the OOT.

Well I’d long planned on making my own edit of Wing Commander 4, but I began to realise that the source material wasn’t compelling enough on it’s own…
SO - we’ve spruced up the audio somewhat. Here, cop this : http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=Y0yBtLj--MU

Just a sample, but I think it improves the original movie massively!

I don’t … I mean really don’t… want to waste my money on a copy of ROTS.
Can anyone answer me this : how is “Nooo” spelt in the subtitles? Is it just a “No!” or do they take the ball and run with it by trying to spell it phonetically? “Nyyuuuooooaaawooaahhh”.

"Anyway, I think it's safe to say that Leia didn't have slaves."

But she did call an intelligent biped a 'walking carpet'. So the only reason she didn't have slaves was probably because she'd get arrested, and not through some respect for her fellow life-forms!!

" it could be like in Return of the King, just as the orcs are about to win the battle of Minas Tirith the army of the dead shows up and kick the orcs butts."

That sucked in Lord of the Rings, and it'd suck in Star Wars.

Now now, it's not his fault that he was sold cameras that seemed to be stuck capturing film at 200fps...

Was it just me, or was that entire trilogy in fucking slow motion!??

Not just you. The trilogy could have been edited down to one great movie.

"Could" have been

When the Extended Edition came along, they upsized it to a freakin' sextology. (Or whatever the correct designation is).

Barf.
I know they're just being stylistic or whatever, but it's not right that Anakin's shin is about as long as his head and torso stuck together. This just looks silly.

Still - the cartoon was a hoot. If they can at least manage to be entertaining with this, then the dodgy design won't hurt... as much.

"Say what you want about the Prequels but they are no where near the mess that Spider-Man 3 is, at the script level."

Hmmm....
Yes. I'm sure Raimi 'wishes he could wish away' the messiness. Ha-ha.

Hah, there wasn't even a story to find in the prequel trilogy. It was merely one big long series of events. I suppose you could say Menace had a story, but the other two movies and the prequel trilogy as a whole entity did not.

Oh there was a story there, just not a great one. And not handled too well. Things that were supposed to be surprises just *weren't*. Was ANYONE surprised when Palpatine and Sidious were 'revealed' to be the same guy??? Talk about a shambles!

"Jumpman, putting aside what you and I think of the PT movies, can you honestly say to me that Lucas reputation as a filmaker is better or worse then it was before 1999? Please answer Yes or No."

Dude, turn your Bill O'Reilly off!!

And an unfortunate reality is (and I'm not happy about it) that it doesn't really matter what his reputation is. He doesn't really need one anymore, he's got a bank balance so big it'd give the Hindenberg penis envy.

Gaw... there are days I'd love to be George Lucas. I'd get away with just about anything!

"Some people just think his "my vision" line is bullshit."

I didn't at first. I started to question it when it changed more often than his shirt did.

I do have fond memories of when TPM was coming out. Exciting days, and I was only 13....

By the time the other two had come out, my tastes had shifted a bit.
While conceding that the prequels weren't good at all, I finished my venting a long time ago. When a movie is 'bad' in my view, I turn it into a source of joy by MSTing it. So everyone wins!
