IG-88 is pwn.

Too bad he kicked the can (lol pun) when Dash Rendar--correction--I totally crushed him.

Uh- no. The first three star wars were awesome. The prequals just suck. They're entirely CG'd (obviously so at times- the special effects from the first movie were less blatant) and lame. EP II was a lot worse than EP I, whose only faults included having bad acting and Jar Jar (unless that was the second, I can't remember).

Omeganitros · 07-25-2004, 08:53 PM

Jar Jar showed up in BOTH.

If he shows up one more time, even as a cameo...

Fans will go on a huge rage. An Angry Mob. Storm the ranch by millions. And beat his ass.

The prequels were no more "all CG" than the first 3 were all miniatures and camera tricks. Seriously, Star Wars isn't supposed to be deep...

I like star wars. Yoda kicks ass. I want to make my own lightsaber. Seriously, they are pwn. And guess what, OMG i don't know this is where i say PC +1

I quite agree with everyone who dislikes the prequels. I used to be a hardcore Star Wars fan after I saw the original movies.

I got into the whole Star Wars universe for a few years, but the prequels came out, and people started trying to write books taking place thousands of years before episode 1, and 50 years after Episode 6 with the 70-year-old Luke still jumping around with his lightsaber... it gets tiring.

Shadows of the Empire is one of the best N64 games ever.

!!!*Breaking News*!!!

Ok, the love subplot was needed, but there are a few things that were messed up. The "Illegal Love" thing is a change. Jedi did in some cases, marry. In many cases, the Jedi did have families. The Jedi would become extinct themselves if they didn't reproduce. Sure you find new disciples, but that only happens to an extent.

The other problem is that the first three movies are actually newer that the second three, and so you have to go back, but still keep the quality. You raise expectations to a level that is almost impossible to reach, and there are things to have to tie in that mess up the plot, such as the C-3PO unit being created by Anikin. They wanted to keep some of the same characters, but that creates incongruities in the story.

(The only REAL bad things were the attempts at humor, using puns.)

I never understood why Jar Jar pissed people off so much. No matter how much you want to believe so, his presence is not what made Episode I a bad movie. And his appearance in Episode II did not make that a bad movie either. Similarly, a cameo by him will do nothing to affect the quality of Episode III.

evilbutterfly · 07-26-2004, 05:50 AM

He was in Episode II? I was too busy gawking at the explosions or waiting for explosions or being on the floor blown away by explosions that I didn't even notice. You see, I enjoyed Episode II for the same reason I enjoyed Pearl Harbor. Yes, you must suffer through an hour or so of love story, but then it's like BOOM EXPLOSIONS LASERS GUNFIRE HOLY CRAP THEY'RE SHOOTING OH NO BANG SHOOT BACK POW POW POW AAAAAAAH ATTACK OH NO ROCKETS RETREAT OH CRAP WE'VE GOT THE CLONE WARRIOR GUYS POW POW BOOM ZAP POW! And then Yoda comes outta nowhere and does flips and crazy shit. I can be emotional and serious when it's needed, but I prefer there to be a lil more buzz to my movie. I need explosions and action or else I get bored and walk away.

Yes. Jar Jar showed up in robes and stuff. At first I didn't recognize him, but then he started talking.

I feel the same way, but for some reason I got into Unbreakable, which has almost no action except for a few punches thrown.
