The opening crawl of Episode 1.

What a pile of nonsense.

See Also: Anakin's Space Jesus Virgin Birth.

 

LOL, right after ROTS was released I sat down and wrote a mini screenplay that spoofed on Terminator. In my screenplay, sometime in the years between ROTS and ANH, an IG-88 assassin droid was sent back in time to kill Shmi Skywalker, and a young Han Solo was sent back to protect her. Following the major plot twist from Terminator, during Han's time with Shmi Anakin is conceived. Once the droid is destroyed and Shmi is safe, like a jerk Han leaves her and goes back to his own time. Shmi finds she is pregnant, angry and ashamed she tells everyone that there is no father and she has no idea how she got pregnant, she really can't explain it.

Of course, nobody believes her, but she persists in her story even into her old age.

Makes the whole OT love triangle even more warped and incestuous than George managed to make it. :p

 you've just warped my mind! ;)

holy god! lets not go back into that again! lol. on the luke leia deal, i say to keep the bro sister storyline.

however, there's gotta be a way to get rid of that kissing scene. i'm sure luke was freaking out in his head

when he realized he frenched his sister. reading the novelizations of the three, there is no hint of romance

between luke and leia.

I'll watch a few scenes from TPM or ROTS once in a blue moon.. Mainly Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan VS Darth Maul, and Vader's injuries and cybernetic recreation from ROTS. I just realized I haven't watched AOTC in a very, very long time. To me it's just a terrible, unsalvagable mess of a film.

Overall... I wouldn't call myself a PT hater so much as someone who is mature enough to see that the OT is far superior in every aspect.

 same here

point being?

love it!

btw, i noticed when i rewatched a color comparrison again, that after lukes rescue and u see the speeder entering the base, u see a second one coming in behind it.

only character i didn't enjoy was boss nass. otherwise, the battles, podrace, and lightsaber duels made it fun to watch.

really? i couldn't fall asleep! i was shaking in my seat the entire movie! and it was a four AM showing!

Adding the shaky ears to Yoda for AotC was one of the best additions in that movie. I know I was happy to see it. Looked so much more like the "real" Yoda, not that ugly thing from TPM! :p

TPM yoda looked nothing like the real yoda. but yea, yoda's ears were the best additions. especially at the end of AOTC when yoda's ears perk up and then down when he tells obi-wan the clone wars has begun.

no kiddin'

that is so much cooler. i've never had  problem originally, but man, he actually looks like he's saying wat he's saying. i want more!!!!

family guy is doing empire? HECK YES!

 ohh yea!!! btw, the ships landed outside the energy feild and entered through. it also said that the energy sheild was strong enough to protect against any bombardment. hey? after the sheilds down should there be a bombardment since its mentioned.

adywan said:

Getting back to ESB, i have been looking at the new Hoth battle footage and i'm really not too sure if adding more AT-AT's is the way to go. I've been thinking and i think that the original amount is perfect. Having just a few AT-At's kick the rebels ass really shows the might of the empire. Adding more in was really just a bit of fanwank really if you think about it. Its something that goes under the category "adding it because we can". It really adds nothing. I will be making the battle more intense but not with extra AT-ATs.

 so will you still be adding in AT-STs or will u take that one single AT-ST that shows up out of the film?

i'm sorry, but the original trilogy is not enough for me, i care

way too much about star wars, and i want MORE, more of the prequels,

more of the 'clone war's', more of everything related to star wars..

it gives me something to look forward too, instead of being stuck in

the past..

 

later

-1

 

 The thing is we wanted more too--but not if they are going to SUCK. We all wanted the prequels, and what we got was not up to par. We care too much about Star Wars to lower our standards and accept crap (I mean, it was bad enough with ROTJ but every family has the red-headed step-child right?). Everyone likes more Star Wars, but some only want more Star Wars if its good, not if its bad, and not if its "eh, its alright I guess."

 

 wat the hell do you mean by "every family has the red-headed step-child?

JediMasterFisher said:

Boba has to come from somewhere big thats how be became the strongest bounty hunter in the galaxy.

he would come from mandalore since that is the type of armor he is wearing is mandalorian.

and taking him out of the movie altogether is stupid.

jengo fett was just as kickass as bobba, only he didn't get killed, well sorta, by a blind man.

plus is name is said twice in ROTJ by han right before he  turns and accidently the pole hits bobba fetts jet pack.

Holy shit man, we are not that PC around here! How unbelievably worthless is the world we are living in becoming!!! If you offend someone by explaining the symbolism in ROTS on a public forum, then quite honestly, the offended party needs to get a life.

 

 good point!

well, the mustafar battle was sybolizing anakins soul falling into hell and how all that remained in his life, to him anyway, was pain and suffering. in other words, the planet is supposed to represent hell.

that's why it was chosen so it would show how anakin's soul fell into hell.

You must've seen this before:

A and B are the exact same color. Test it in Gimp, Photoshop,  Paint, ... if you don't believe me.

 

Oh man, I'm tripping balls!

 

 How the hell does that work? :O

the model's drawn poorly. try taking a black and white checker board and a paper or styrofoam cup and do this. it makes a lot more sense.

merry christmas! wonder if we can reached 300 pages by the end of this next year.

i really want to see it. guess i'll have to wait until it comes to the states. sigh...

if mcdiarmand narated, that would be awsome. its nice to hear a familiar voice. i wouldn't count on it. john williams however, that's a possibility.

AMEN! the symbolism is religious and i don't want to offend someone.

however, she said she just remembered images and feelings. and obviously was told by her adoptive parents, her mother died when she was young.

 

It was clear from what she said that she remembered her mother. And she said her mother died when she was young but she didn't say "My mother died when I was newborn." She clearly meant later.

 

well, u can just take the line, "she died when i was very young" that would work.

 

 

What do you mean take the line? Take out the line? Why should a classic's story be changed to suit later inferior spinoff films? Why don't we just take out Padme's death scene? That's the thing that obviously shouldn't have been put in.

 i meant take that line out.

and no, padme should die, otherwise u'd have even more gaps. questions would pop up saying, "did she marry bail?" "how did she die?" and so on. whether u like it or not, it stays.

 

It's much more appropriate to delay Padme's death to years later, in keeping with the established story. They can end the film some years after the main events if they like, to include her death.

Taking out a line from a classic film to fit in with a crap spinoff film is an obscene idea.

yes there are flaws. but still they blew me away. the music, action, and storytelling, aside from the romance, really delivered.

The action was tedious, the music was overdone, the storytelling was crap. In two of those films there was very little apart from flaws.

no, not denial. I love the prequels, sorry they didnt fullfill your expectations but I love them.

I find it little hard to believe that anybody could love AOTC and ROTS. What is there to love? There's no heart or soul in those films.

on the music, ur saying that john williams sucked then right?

 

I'm saying the choice of music for various scenes had them giving scenes music that was overdone for the scenes. Like the way overdone music for the lava fight. Stuff like that was really annoying.

 

how was it annoying? it fit the scene well. where would u have had them fight?

 

do u pay any attention to the symbolism in the movie? there was a reason mustafar was chosen for the final battle. read a book for god's sake!

what torrent did u search to get this? i can't find them.
