why do you like it jimbo?


It makes him look more decayed. This in my opinion adds to the effect of the suffering of Anakin Skywalker. It is also slight and probably will only be noticed by the most hardcore fans. Also I am very happy there ain't any Hayden there.

Hey guys today is my birthday. I turn 17 today. Also if you look at the lightsabers it is clear they were tampered with more then just remastering. These changes do kind of spoil Revenge of the Sith. I also assumed Naboo and the Jedi temple would have been destroyed. Seeing them still standing in Return of the Jedi is surprising.

Is there anyone who believes Hayden in Jedi is better. Also yes I say some of the effects in the 1997 Special Edition could have been better but were alot better then anything they could do in the 70s. Best explaination for Hayden is the idea that a Jedi spirit can look like any point in its life. Anakin when he died was a bald limbless corpse. He would much rather look like his pretty boy younger self. Obi-Wan wanted Luke to recognize him more which is why he still looks old. It still sucks but it can make some sense. Its livable. Still how can anyone complain about the fixing of lightsabers or deleting of Racor matt lines. Both are changes that should have been made in 1997. I am so happy about those.

Whats there to be skeptical. Attack of the Clones rocked. Revenge of the Sith just appears to be taking all the better parts of Attack of the Clones. There won't be any love dialog everyones been complaining about. It will be filled with plenty of action. It has a kick ass villian. Natalie Portman will still be there and still be sexy, we finally get to see the rise of vader. That is a moment that I have wanted to see since I was three years old. I would be extremly surprised if it doesn't surpase Attack of the Clones and all the original trilogy.

Im getting them for only $35. Anyone who can deny them the Star Wars trilogy on DVD because of Haydens head is nuts. These DVDs will look and sound excellent. Have the best effects. In my opinion I pitty those who are boycotting this great set. This is the Star Wars trilogy on DVD. Its something Ive wanted since having heard of the DVD format.

And, yes, I agree with you. The Goblin's costume was my #1 sticking point with the first movie. Another reason why I like the second so much better, the villain looks like the villain I remember. Alfred Molina was great in that movie.


Doc Ocks costume was changed in Spider-Man 2 as well. So were all the X-men.

I love it when I am right. I have been saying from the beginning all of these changes. People have said shit like "nothing is official" "These will be the 1997 Special Editions" Now I don't think anyone can deny these changes. I am glad to see the fix in the Racor sequence. So far I love all of these changes except for Haydens heads. At least Shaw is still there when Anakins helmet is removed. Still with awsome improvements like fixed lightsabers, no racor matt lines, better Jabba animation, extended hallway, correct emperor, and Naboo celebration I can very easily forgive one little abomination. I can't wait to own these DVDs.

That I didn't know. I know he does the voice of Fry, Hubert, Zoidberg, Zapp, and many minor characters. He also does the voice of Invader Zim another show cancelled before its time. I am amazed at how that guy is able to change his voice in so many ways. John Damasio voice of Bender is the voice of General Grevious in Clone Wars I believe. He will not be in Episode 3. True it would be a bumer to have Katey Sagel replaced. She was great as Leela and Peggy Bundy. Who can forget how she says "AAALLLLL". Still I think the show could work without her.

Thats not what I heard. Matt Groenings seems to love his show and I think if a studio were to give him the ability to continue it he would for sure. I think the fact that the show has great Cartoon Network ratings and high DVD sales is convincing the industry that the show has enough of a fan base to continue. It was only cancelled because football kept pre empting it. In my opinion The Simpsons is over. It had a great long run but they basically have done everything and are running out of ideas. I never got this feeling in Futurama. One of my favorite fan posters was Bender with a fox logo on his butt stateing "Bite my shiny metal ass"

Buy the Season sets of Futurama. The more sales of the show on DVD the more likely the show will come back. I want that show to come back bad. Its such a funny show. In my opinion Futurama is the funniest cartoon ever. Funnier then the Flinstones, Simpsons, Family Guy, none can compare with the geneous of Futurama. The DVDs also have great picture quality and a good set of extras.

Fry - Wouldn't want to sniff Uranus get it
Hubert - the Planet of Uranus was renamed in the 2600s to put an end to that stupid joke once and forall
Fry - Whats it called now
Hubert - Urectum

Pffft, yeah, sure you have, we have been too Padme.


Then watch it was the sound off.

True its a bit cheesy. But then again Han and Leia had there cheesy moments. All love has it. Its how love is. Also Padmes outfit in the fireplace sequence is my personal favorite. Its tight. I like tight. George stated he invented that outfit himself. You wonder why I think hes a geneous.
