if lucas was a little more truthful it would make a world of difference in his character from my viewpoint. i dont think he has to say the critics hated the first ones, or that he never intended 9 films. i mean who is he hurting by not being a little more honest about things. everyone obviously see through his lies anyways, whats the big deal?

well he wanted the ewoks to be primitive to contrast with the empire. he already had chewie being sophisticated so that wouldnt work in the new context. even in rots they arent low tech like the ewoks ended up being. although im sure he made them cute for marketing reasons

i was just watching the old cbs fox tape and that luke and leia scene kinda does work in conjunction with the pt. for instance why does luke look shocked that he never knew his mother? could be hes bothered he cant feel her through the force like leia can

the pod race is okay if you like nascar, which i find boring. wish it had been more like a stree race rather than laps

if you watch jed in the context of the ot where you dont know the saga is supposed to be the redemption of vader it works. but youre right about the pod race holy god that went on forever, main reason i cant watch tpm

Yes. And I've seen ROTJ recently too. The problem with Jedi, IMHO, is the Jabba's palace scenes. I've always felt that they go on WAY too long.

i always thought it was long simply because han was such an interegal character and the cliffhanger to empire was based on what happened to him. so it just seems natural they would take that long to get him out in jedi since people had waited 3 years to see what happened to him

So, there are three excellent films (ROTS, ANH, ESB), and three OK films (TPM, AOTC, and ROTJ).

have you seen rots lately? i got through the first 3 minutes but by the time i got to the buzz droids i quickly lost interest

do modern kids even give a shit about he man now? i hope not since all those cartoon shows from the 80's were money making schemes to get parents to buy crap action figures because their kids were marketed to by half hour commercials disguised as tv shows

i just meant the whole pathetic vader part sticks out more in rotj, because you see how pathetic he is at the end of rots, which unfortunately reminds me too much of the prequels. and if you dont like the prequels, which i dont, then it reminds you of them more than you would care for it too

hey i agree with you adamwan. like i said i lost interest because of how many books have come out and how bored i am with the prequels in general. but i too feel they are canon, if not then whats the point?

well for people who hate the prequels, the exposition in rotj seems redundant much like in anh not to mention inconsistent, the lame redemption angle of rotj is more pronounced, and i keep thinking of ian mcdiarmids truly horrible performance as the emperor in rots when i watch rotj now

then why do you like the idea that obi wan lied about everything? the only lying i accept from obi wan is the part about ader everything else he says is what actually happened
