after seeing the newest starwars eps 3..

i gotta say..

it was good.

I too thought this movie was just ok. A big improvement over the last two episodes, but that aint saying much.

An ok storyline, but as most people said:
-bad dialogue! "We always wanted to adopt a baby girl" (PUKE!) a simple: 'we always wanted a baby girl' would've sufficed.
-Padme's character pulled a full 180, going from stoic to sappy. So disappointed in that.
-Anakin was TOO easily swayed by the dark side in this film. Should've developed that more.
-droid & animal characters had very childish sounds at serious moments.
-really disliked the light sabers in this one. wayyy too digitized- during fight scenes u were just blinded by the light, and not in a good way. I miss the old light sabers.

Some people like a movie for more than just action and like to pick apart a movie, especialy when the flaws are so obvious.

May 25th...Happy Star Wars Day!!!

Enough is enough. Let's not bash George Lucas for 1 whole day because on May 25, 1977 Star Wars was originally released and it changed the history of cinema and pop culture forever. Honestly, his epic 6 movies saga is a brilliant masterpiece illustrating the hero's journey for Anakin Skywalker on a mythic level making him one of the greatest storytellers of all time.

No joke this man will be remembered as a visionary and historians in the future will compare him to Shakespeare and Homer for his genius in storytelling using the medium of film.

Happy birthday STAR WARS!!!

History would be better off leaving out the first three episodes of the trilogy, they're about as necessary as the matrix sequels.

this is what i originally thought he was going to do. start the trilogy off where Anakin was the same age as Luke from Episode 4. atleast that way parallels could be drawn between the 2 characters in terms of their development.

instead EP1 wasted so much precious time that he could have used to his advantage in telling more about the "Anakin story", which essentially is what the whole trilogy revolves around.



yep, when I first learned that Anakin would be 8 years old to start off with, I was disappointed. Adopting kids really softened Lucas and for some reason, they interfered with his writing and story choices. I think it actually was a huge shock that most people hated Episode 1. Thus you get Episode 2 and 3 that try to cater to the fans more, to varying degrees of success. For the record, I love aspects of Episode 1, generally like most of 2 and love 3. I"m not a prequel hater like a lot of fans, but I'm also not going to defend them blindly like some younger star wars fans.

I just wish Lucas had been surrounded by people like Gary Kurtz who would stand up to him. Maybe that's why Lucas shitcanned Kurtz before Jedi went into production? Rick McCallum is a funny guy (watch the dvd of TPM), but he's too much of a yes man. 'yes george sir, whatever you want" is an attitude that seemed far too common around Lucasfilm and ILM the last ten years.

But such as it is, I'm glad we got 3 more Star Wars movies.

I use to hate Star Wars. I think it was because I watched the first 3 when I was like 5 or 6, and really what girl at that age is going to like Star Wars?

My boyfriend is a Star Wars fanatic, so I decided to give Star Wars another chance. I watched Episode 1,2,4,5 and 6 within 2 weeks then saw Episode 3 on opening night. I really liked all of them, but I loved Episode 3, I thought by far that this was the best one. (I even cried in it when Padame died.)

That's what I'm saying. If you guys are THAT picky don't freaking watch science fiction. It's about suspension of disbelief, don't want to suspend your disbelief and instead pick apart the movie to death? Don't watch science fiction.

Grow up so I can tolerate any shit a succesful director throws at me regardless of it's actual content?

indiana jones 4 ho ho ho.


Posted by big_charm on May-25-2005 20:00:

I watched Episode 3 yesterday with my brother. I thought it was by far the best of the 3 newer Star Wars movies. Lots of action, great CGI and basically tied all the loose ends together in the story. I just wish this was Episode 1, not 3 as it would have made a far more interesting.

I personally didn't really care for RotJ's Soundtrack. Williams is really hit and miss for me, but after seeing the film and picking up the soundtrack, it's AMAZING.
