I'm a fan of the books, and the only problem I had with the movie was, as YIYF said, pushing this CHRONICLES OF NARNIA EPISODE I crap. Everytime someone asks me, "Have you seen Narnia, yet?" I respond, "Yeah, I've seen The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe."

Just like the problem I have when someone calls ANH "Star Wars."



Yeah, that's the correct name of Star Wars. The real and true title not "episode blah blah.."

When did you give up with the Prequels, TPM, AOTC, or ROTS?

I gave up at the beginning of Revenge of the Sith. As soon as the word "War!" came across the screen I knew it was over. I'm usually very quiet during movies but the whole time while watching ROTS I kept shouting out at the screen like I was a cast member of Mystery Science Theater 3000.

The one part that made me panic that Lucas had lost his mind was when Obi-Wan said, "Wait a minute. Were smarter than this. How did this happen?" I thought for sure he had broken the 4th wall and was going to comment that this was totally out of character for him as Obi-Wan Kenobi, and that they needed to start over. I thought that they were in some training program, like Holodeck or something, running through the motions to try and get Palpatine back. I. Shit. You. Not. I remember thinking, "Oh my god...whoa, whoa, whoa. What the hell is going on here?! Is Obi-Wan going to look at the camera and go "Sorry folks, we're starting the movie over."
Most of the time I just kept shouting, "Who wrote this crap!?" knowing full well who did.

I covered my eyes and went "Oh my goddddd...." during the balcony scene.

I was DIEING of laughter when the Emperor was all frog like and going "No! No! Unlimited Power!"

And the prize for worse scene ever was Vaders infamous Frankenstein, "NOOOOOOOOO!!" scene. Some guy next to me started saying (in a Frankenstein voice), "Rrrr! Vader Smash! Rwar!"

Of course I counter acted that with my earlier line when Palpatine turns to Anakin and says, "Oh Anakin, I have good news." I shouted out "I just saved a bunch of money on my car insurance!" The whole row cracked up.

When Obi-Wan says "The Sith are evil!" and Anakin retorts with "From my point of view the Jedi are evil!" I just had to sarcastically shout out "Oooo! Obi-Wan got buuurned!"

When Palpatine says that he's giving Anakin a new title of head-whatever-of the Jedi councel Anakin woodenly says, "I'm overwhelmed." I just said to myself, "Yeah, I can tell..."

And of course Grevous sounds just like Triumph the Insult Comic Dog. I can't STAND it. Everything he said I swore he was going to end with "For me to poop on!"

God ROTS sucked ass. It is the ONLY Star Wars movie that I actually fast forward though. Even TPM I can sit through the whole thing... But ROTS.... nope. When I walked out of the theater I thought it was the best of the 3 (which isn't say much) but now that I've seen it 3 times. I hate it more than I hate the other two movies. And that is painfuly sad.


No.


It's her opinion you ratbastard

I must differ. Ian is always great, and Ewan, IMO, gave a MUCH better proformance than he ever has (see The Island for an example of bad)


Maybe you should do some research first. Probably the first Ewan film you ever saw the shitty Phantom Menace along with the other prequels. Trainspotting was a great example of Ewan award worthy and the first Ewan film I ever saw, along with the Pillow Book and Shallow Grave. That's the real awards for films that Ewan should get, none the dire and awful Star Wars movies
