I don't wan to vote until i see RotS, but currently i like #1 the best. it was done very well, and i can actually stand looking at the actors (rewatching the old SW, i was clinching on how bad the acting was.) also, the whole thing didn't seem stupid or disjointed as it did in #2. However I'm told that the whole story will make sence when I see #3, so maybe the other movies won't be so bad...

what did you like about ESB?

Number of reasons: It's the most exciting. The fight between Luke and Vader is one of the best. The Battle of Hoth is really neat too. Oh, and of course, Yoda's great in it. The special effects are still impressive today even with all that computer technology. And the acting may not be great, but it is believable overall unlike the I and II(and only parts of III).

Wow! Dude you've got to be kidding. Liam and Ewan were both good actors, but I don't consider them on the same tier as Alac Guiness, James Earl Jones or even Harrison Ford (Well actually Liam's past Ford, but certainly not Ewan). I mean, who believed the Padme'/Anikan romance? But we all felt the sincerity behind 'I love you'....'I know...' exchange lol...I love that line.

'A New Hope' is my favorite, I think it had the most epic feel of all of them - my second is 'ESB' and then 'ROTS'. Sith was good, but I still prefer the first two movies over it, and ROTJ lost points ‘cus I can't stand Ewoks.

05-22-2005, 11:53 PM
Nah, fight scenes i liked, but i hated the romance scenes. It was "I love you" "I don't know what i will do without you" "Lets kiss now" "ok"

alright, that was mostly the script's fault, but they could @ least put some ethusiasm in it!

and as a note, Anikin in SW #1 was voted worse actor mean 2 pick on the little guy

i have to stick with epmire strikes back, because its the best one for character development. Han and Leia and the kiss and their love starting is just greatness, then Luke learning about himself and the force with yoda, and yes the hoth battle was cool, and we get lando, and boba fett, the I am your father line, you can't beat that.

I have to disagree with you guys. Revenge of the Sith is my second favorite because it is, in my opinion, Yoda's best movie. (By the way, Yoda's my favorite character. "hint hint") It would then be a draw for me between "Phantom Menace" and "Return of the Jedi". That last light saber duel in Phantom Menace is totally sweet and ya the ewoks are pretty fake looking but I think their cool. I also like Return of the Jedi for the redemtion of Vader and the Ian McDiarmad does a really good job with his part as the Emperor. I think he's even a little scarier in that movie than in Revenge of the Sith. Fourth would be A New Hope, which is a good movie overall but kind of boring, and last Attack of the Clones. Well, I don't need to go into that. I still like it though, it's just not the best Star Wars.

i watched 5 and 6 the minute I got home from the theatre (after 28 years of waiting - yes, i was waiting for this moment even before I was born!). Somehow, its just not the same anymore. 5 and 6 never seemed as fulfilling as ROTS. The plot was never as concrete or detailed, the development was not as obvious, the conclusion always seemed a little rushed. They seem almost infantile in comparison (I never thought I would say this.)! Still, they had much better dialogue and still have a have a strong place in my heart!

I like Return of the Jedi the best. The father-son confrontation is wonderful drama and, even though it nearly turns him to the dark side, I love how passionately Luke wants to defend his sister from the dark side. I think Vader's "So you have a twin sister[...]If you will not be turned to the dark side, then perhaps she will" is his most evil line.

I also love Jabba the Hut (gross but menacing and cool), I like Yoda better in this installment (and not because he dies :D ). As a teen I often joked that I wanted my dying words to be: "there is another Sky...wal...ker" :p I love the Ewoks (it's true, it's true, you know it's really true). I love how somethig so uncivilized and connected to nature beats out the machine. And I'm just a sucker for the underdog. I love seeing Lando as a full-out good guy and the space battle is just awesome. But the Vader, Luke and Emperor subplot is what truly sells the movie for me. I just don't like how in the DVD Hayden's Anakin replaces the original guy. Hayden looks too young and glowery while the original dude looked full of paternal pride and what was left of Anakin's physical body aged in that time period. That's part of the reason the Emperor wanted a new apprentice in Luke. He was younger and stronger.

I agree, because a lot of folks are like you --nostalgic or something -- and want to see the old ones warts and all. Perhaps they will be smart enough to market it that way, and then I can show the original to my kids and tell them in my day we had to walk barefoot through the snow to the cinema to see lo-tech flix like this ...

I havent got to see RotS yet, but i will be seeing it this weekend, or more likely next. But so far i love Return of the Jedi. The characters go every where in that movie. You got the ewoks, then you have the big showdown with Luke, Vader, and the Sith. It is great, i love it. So much action, and excitiment! :D

05-27-2005, 03:07 PM
Return of the Jedi is cool, because it resolves everything, and gives you hope that Vader is redeemed ... except Ewoks=ick. I don't know, they creep me out.

but ROTS is so good, it may be my favorite!

Princess Rosario says: call the cinema and ask if they're playing the Narnia trailer with ROTS, and which cinema it is playing in, then you can be sure to see the trailer, too!

I dont like the way that they redid the original 3 with new effects and CGI - I think it looks stupid - what does yous all think???I agree sooo much! A lot of it is fine, but the stuff I still can't stand they changed (on the dvd release) are as follows:
*the new Boba Fett voice; I mean, come on! One of the most classic voices on Star Wars completely removed and replaced with the worst voice-overs in movie history.
*the new song in Jabba's palace. I still cringe whenever I see it.
*Jabba in ANH. Better than the Special edition release, but still hideous
*Hayden Christensen in RotJ.
*elimination of the yubyub song at the end of RotJ.
*Greedo shooting at Han
*replacement of the Wolfman in the cantina.
*even worse-looking saber effects in ANH (how come it changes green when Luke's training in the Falcon?)

I did, however like some of the additions. Though I don't think they needed to add any scenes; just fix up some of the effects. For instance, I like the new look to Mos Eisley and to Cloud City, but making goofy cgi characters dance around in Jabba's palace to make the originals look as dumb as the prequels is not the way to go. Instead, they should've tried to do something to make the prequels match up with the originals.

Oh well.

ESB and RotJ get even vote from me as the best.

HMMM..... apparently, I need to see the new DVDs. Maybe I can do that next week, at home.

Dragon, what's this about Boba having a different voice on the DVDs? I guess what they did is replace it with the Jango/Clone Troopers' voice.

tgraveline
06-02-2005, 09:50 AM
I think they put in Temura Morrisen's voice in instead of the original, the guy who plays jango fett and all the clones.

tg

PS when people really start freaking out about the new things in the dvd editions, they have to realize, this isn't your creation, as much as it is close to your heart, the decisions and the world of it, never was yours. So i don't understand why i have to see people with dumb shirts saying Han Shot First. This is just retarded. Its a movie, I love it and i've even read some of the books, but i don't need to get all up in arms about some changes in the originals. Thats taking things way too close to heart.

Aravis Kenobi
08-05-2007, 09:39 AM
as I continue to watch 4-6, *with the exception of 4* I don't find them as dry or boring. I mean, when you look at the structure of say, Han and Leia's love story, it has much better dialogue, acting, and believability than Anakin and Padme's love story. But something most people disagree with me on, is that I don't even find 1 boring. There's more action in the later films than in the originals, and I know my username states an obvious reason for me liking the prequels, but I still find the prequels more enjoyable. Except the most enjoyable parts in the originals are all the Han scenes.

I chose revenge of the Sith because I think that is the first one where we see Grievous, is it not? And I love him. I almost chose Episode V because I think that is the one where we first meet Yoda, and I love him, too. They are my two favorites. I think it is Revenge of the Sith where we see Yoda open up and do his acrobatic sabre fighting -- I love that part. He acts like a little old man leaning on a cane then he can fight and fly like a demon. And of course, Grievous is just the coolest villain with all his arms and all his light sabres. Love him.

Aravis Kenobi
08-22-2007, 06:11 PM
Grievous appeared in the Clone Wars series and I think some of the books; not sure since I've never read the books, but I do know he appeared in a Clone Wars episode-or episodes.

Meeting Yoda in ep. 5 makes you wonder what exactly made him change so darn much; he was like, so serious in 1-3, then in 5 it's almost as if he's insane, but he's hilarious, lol.

08-22-2007, 09:43 PM
Ahh... thanks goodness I've seen once again the word Grievous:D in a post (but I think really few people know the reason of his name).

Anyway, and I think that there should be any people that better has chosen the new movies because of the acting (save for the one of Anakin... it's awful, and even screaming).

Oh, and by the way, it's not fair they deleted the scene:D where Grievous kills the Jedi Master Shaak Ti... or whatever her name was.

Aravis Kenobi
08-22-2007, 09:54 PM
the only reason *and I have to agree* that they cut the scene is because of how long it ended up making the beginning; An hour or more longer for the beginning sequences?! :eek: way too long. plus, the elevator scene worked better with the rest of the film.

I was alive when Episode IV came out, and it was such a huge hit, it was i the cinemas for months, and that was very cool, so of course you always think of that one first because it made such a huge impression and was the first one.

But for me, the final two of the latest trilogy were really well done. Despite Hayden's maybe not getting the nest direction in the world, and in the one where he turns into Vader, well, that could have used some work. But the special effects in the later trilogy were just so awesome. And the beautiful Grieveous.

But I agree with the post on the last page which said it was funny how much Yoda changed between the two trilogies; like he went a bit nuts. I like that, though.

LOL -- you were too young to know what it was like when it was revealed that Luke and Leia were brother and sister -- because they had kissed! Eeeeuuuuu!

You prefer the new trilogy to the original three? For special effects, I agree. As I say, I liked the original movie, everyone went wild for it. But the new trilogy has so many cool villains and amazing effects. The only thing I did not like in the new trilogy was how really New Agey it became ...

Aravis Kenobi
08-24-2007, 04:55 PM
well, no. I'd say the answer's quite obvious. :p

honestly, besides Hayden's bad acting, and the horrible dialogue in ep. 2, I see no difference between the two trilogies. to kids, they're the same; there's no difference, which I think is how we should look at it.

here are some links I found a while back that are very interesting: http://www.boundless.org/2001/departments/atplay/a0000595.html
http://www.boundless.org/1999/features/a0000134.html
http://www.boundless.org/2005/articles/a0001088.cfm
http://blogs.starwars.com/abelgpena/93

*there was another discussing the fact how kids view the series, and how we should too, but somehow, it didn't save and I have no idea of how to find it again.*

basically, the story is one story, and shouldn't be criticized because of one actor's bad acting. I think that GL was seeking to do a different sort of trilogy, one that didn't exactly mirror 4-6, and it would be very boring if he had done so; there needs to be some variety in a film saga. a SW purist would be one, I think, who loves each film equally and appreciates the story that's trying to be told; not the actors, dialogue, etc... because really, the dialogue in 4-6 is basically like the kind in 1-3; but because of one actor *possibly two* we view it as horrible.

08-24-2007, 05:28 PM
Those were good articles. I felt this was especially true, from Attack of the Clones review:
We are told throughout Episodes I and II that Anakin is the “chosen one,” the one who will bring “balance to the Force.” Having watched all five episodes multiple times, I’m still not sure what that means. But it at least means this: Anakin’s life and choices have been predetermined. We are told that “there are no coincidences” and that what you see in front of you is unfolding according to some plan. Anakin was destined, ordained, if you will, to take this journey. In Attack of the Clones, as in The Phantom Menace, there is the pervading sense that the various characters are pawns in a game being played by larger forces — or should I say “Forces?”

This is hardly unprecedented. Greek myth, as well as the stories of the ancient Near East and India, all portrayed men as either the playthings of the gods or as trapped by an inexorable fate. That puts Anakin in good company. But it also leaves us with no basis for judging his actions. He has no free will. He is little more than a victim. The suffering and death he will inflict on the galaxy is really the doing of an impersonal “energy field created by all living things.” In a moral universe where you’re little more than a puppet and where missing your mother and loving Natalie Portman are the first steps to the Dark Side, why should we root for him to come back to the Good Side?

This is what I meant by the new trilogy being "New Agey." There seems the supposition that whatever Anakin does, is fated, and that one choice is not particularly better than another. I guess I had forgotten, in the older trilogy, how that same story is turned on its head by Luke, who clearly rejects the dark side, but also rejects the Jedi form of detachment, too, and with love as a weapon, moves Vader to redemption.
The Star Wars saga "works because Lucas, with the audience's connivance, injects ideas and images from the story that Christians believe was written before the beginning of time and is woven into the fabric of universe." Thus, the story ends in a way that an audience shaped by the Christian story expects it to. The result is what we, and Lucas, call hope.

Good stuff!

The Empire Strikes Back was the most exciting for me, closely followed by the original. RotJ was also pretty good...and while I don't hate the prequels as intensely as some do, I still tend to watch them with a sort of tongue-in-cheek attitude due to some of the weaker scripts (ESPECIALLY the romantic dialogue...the whole "I hate sand" thing...-shudder-...I also didn't really appreciate some of the weird attempts to push New Age-ish philosophy in RotS--"Only a Sith deals in absolutes"? Umm, isn't that in and of itself an absolute statement? :rolleyes:). I still consider myself a pretty well-rounded fan of the movies, though. ^^;

Revenge of the Sith is by far the best.

I actually don't think the prequal trilogy is bad. What killed it was the romance. Not only were they stale in their acting, but the dialouge was terrible. And they had no chemistry at all.

I couldnt stand lines like "I've died a little bit every day since you've returned."

I will say though I did like the music John Williams made for the two. But thats it.

Return of the Jedi: Luke was super UGLY (I hear he was in a car accident)
:cool:

Frankly, I don't agree with that sentiment and if Mark Hamill were to ever read that, he'd be offended. Yes, he was in a car accident, but contrary to myth, that really wasn't the reason his face was scarred. He broke his nose, that was it. For you to rate a movie based on how somebody looks is ridiculous. George Lucas didn't direct the original trilogy, save for A New Hope, which is why they're so much better.

Phantom Menace, the actors were fine; it was the script that was the death of the film. Jar Jar I had no problem with. I'm one of the few who thinks he's funny, but I don't believe that is the real reason TPM bombed.

Attack of the clones-the acting WAS awful, except for Christopher Lee and Ewan McGregor. If Lucas had added a film in-between II and III, and maybe Anakin and Padme had gotten married in that film instead of rushing into it in Episode II, it wouldn't have been QUITE as bad.

And yes, I withdraw my vote saying that RotS was my favorite. Empire Strikes Back is my favorite.

The main thing that makes TPM less up-to-par than the rest of the movies for me is just that it seems less...Star Wars-ish to me--maybe I'm just crazy, I don't know. Minus the Darth Maul vs. Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan fight, I just didn't feel as strongly connected to the stories of the rest of the movies when I was watching that one.

I liked the original series a lot more than the new ones. The only thing I liked better about the new movies is Obi-Wan-Kenobi. I liked A New Hope the best.

My question is in the phatom menance how old were padme and anikin? ankin was really young in the phatom menance so she is quite older than he isnt she.

Anakin was about to turn 10, Padme was 14. She had way more maturity than him in every sense of the word. Common sense would tell you, "You don't marry a guy who has issues like this."

I love the original 1st movie, when in the theater darkness, there was no Part anything. Just seeing the words was sooo cool! Although I did like some of the improvements Lucas made, like the addition of Battle Scenes and making the Spaceships Dogfighting faster than the older slow speeds. On a different note, it's also neat how the book explains things in the movie, and just adds a neat touch.

Oh yeah, in the first movie Han shot first. No way Greedo would've missed, so I'd keep that in.

I loved all equally but the most recent two (Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith, neither of which I enjoyed as much simply because of my dislike for Hayden Christiansen, who cannot act; see, Shattered Glass, cringe); I chose Phantom Menace simply because I really, really loved Liam Neeson and Ewan McGregor, and this is the only film I've ever enjoyed Natalie Portman.

I almost voted for the original one, but I picked Episode VI because I love the ending.:p (And I'm glad Episode I got a vote.;) Darth Maul made up for Jar-Jar.)

Episode VI has always been my favorite. Especially those fuzzy little muppets from the planet Endor,aka Ewoks.

the one I didn't liked to much was the clone wars, because that's not the right story, the one in the cartoons it's the right story :D... I hated no know that!... I wonder why did they changed the story

yeah for me it's Empire Strikes Back. Great love story, great plot twist, great lines, great cute faces from Han.

When you mention the funny faces, the one that comes to mind is his look of bewilderment (It's not my fault!!!) :confused: when the Falcon won't make the jump to hyper-space.

Hahahahha!!!! That was priceless!!! I also love his face in RotJ when he thought Leia and Luke were a couple. Till he figured out they were siblings :D
Han was a very funny character. He was a bit rebelious but still with the Heart on the right place

Years ago it would have been Phantom Menace and before that it was none. My least favorite is Episode III.

I like Episode II best, especially when Yoda fights Dooku! If Dooku didn't cheat by almost dropping that beam on Anakin and Obi Wan, Yoda would have beat him so easy! Yoda's so small but he's like the best Jedi knight!

Yep, the first trilogy :D Nothing can beat those! I have seen them in the theaters back then and they are still timeless

Actually, I am most fond of of Episode VI now. I do not like Episode III at all. As a child, I had issues with movies that scared me; therefore, I did not like the first three, back then I was not fond of things like Little Mermaid either. It was only after I wached Phantom Menace a liked it that I decided to give IV-VI a chance.

I used to dislike the monster in the sand very much. It was scary. But even thoguth with these monsters I still liked the movies. When you're a child it might be scary but when you're older and look back at them you'll see they are classical
