hehe I can see no one is interested in this SW movies forum and you know why?? kuz episode one was a real big disapointment compared to the good first 3 SW movies.
so were the updates brought to those good old 3 episodes that should have been left untouched! C'mon why don't they realize that super extra humoungus extrem fantastic effects doesn't give a super extra humoungus extrem fantastic movie.
I remember the women Alien singer/dancer in Jubba the Hutt base on "the return of the jedi episode" she was really funny the way she was created and that was the kind of thing that made the movie special But now in the remake they did this digitalized alien that really went to far.


Yes the new LA movies will be nothing like the original ones. And that mostly, I think, is cause of all the digitalizing.

I don't think I'll bother waste my money to go see episode 2 and 3

um, the flannel one mainly did those becaseu he did not have the Budget to do them in the first place, and overall they do not really effect the storyline much, just htink of it as a Late version of the Directors cut.

No they dont, taht is one of the main problems about TPM, it can not stand alone as a movie by iteslf, it was a buncha mini-films and a showcase of New Special Effects. But that does not mean SW OY shoudl be ignored, the story is still there, and from what i ahve herd of EP2, it looks to be a great movie, one of the Best maybe

I assume you mean Sny Snootles, well, that is one of the Problems with ROTJ, it turned into a Sci-FI muppet show. I think it was great to have Sny done as CGI, and it made the character look a lot more lifelike.

No, taht is becasue of our veiwpoint, we ahe elarned to love and ahve fond memories of the OT, now we ahve something new to look at and we are allways going to compare it yto the glorified version of the OT

Thats your opinion, but i think after 4 months of it being in the theaters you might want to change your mind.. at least see it at matinee prices. I have talked to one of the Artists at the ranch who worked on EP1 and now is workign on EP2. he main comment, however little, is "be ready for suprises" and "give Jar Jar a chance"

While I love the films. I'll never run off to see them the first day they are out. I always wait, so I can actually get a good seat, and not have to stand in line all day long.

The special edition, in my opion was a good improvement, they fixed many problems they had in the originals. Episode 2, promises to be a good one as well. For now I would hold off judgement at least untill the trailers come out.

TPM did what it was supposed to: look good and just tell us who the new characters are.

I saw TPM on opening day. I stood in line for 5 minutes and had my pick of anywhere I wanted to sit in the theater http://www.xwingalliance.com/forums/smile.gif)

I liked the new Sy Snoodles (believe this is the correct spelling - but flame me if im wrong) and Max Rebo - they looked good - and it worked kinada well, as it gave the oppurtunity for More Boba Fett.

As I said last time some was toasting the Remasterd Release (STILL cant elieve theyre gonna rerelease it !!) :
It wasnt just the big, obvious bits. I have watched it enough to see the more subtle additions - like when luke proclaimes to palpatine - 'You have failed your highness", it was see luke, see emporer. Now, they look back at luke a second time, to show his resolve is strong, that he is not gonna give in, and THEN you see the emperor get 'upset'...

Ill add later - but you know it to be true - look inside yourself...
