Star Wars....

hmm good point, i was referring to anakin and padme, but yeah obi wan and anakin seemed very....tense. hahahah...rub their lightsabers...d'ahaha....

 

rubbing light sabers together ...

 

It was an awesome movie!

 

got told i would of been shot into space if me arlfella was/nt pissed.

 

My review:
Natalie Portman fell off horribly playing her role, everything was fake and rehearsed, not "real" [and by that I mean, her emotions in the movie didn't seem humanly real]

I really thought Hayden and Ewan played their roles wonderfully considering they had the past actors interpretation to live up to... to me, the way they walked and carried themselves throughout the movie duplicated that of the previous actors who played Obi Wan and Darth Vader.

The emperor, Palpatine, I also thought played his role wonderfully though hes always been in Star Wars as Palpatine... I also noticed a creepy voice change when he showed off his dark side ways...it was like he was going through Dark Side puberty.

The special effects were amazing, though as for actual characters being computer animated...it doesn't really fly with me. I actually like the puppets in the old movies better, they looked more 3-D and real to me. Yoda in the new movies to me, looks like a fricken xbox game character rather than an actual being for a movie setting.

I thought the plot was good, it had a good mixture of talking and action... unlike the 2nd episode which was almost completely dialogue and a love story. This movie kept you on your toes more so.

Though it made me cry, I like some of the intense factors they put in there... and anyone who's seen it knows what I mean.

I thought it was overall great, way better than episode 1 or 2...
I can't really compare anything except actors and special effects to the old movies, because it's all one plot... I like the acting skills MUCH better in the old movies, and the special effects in the new movies have their pros and cons.

 

I was disappointed. It seemed like they were trying so hard to tie up loose ends, that character development and humor (the stars of episode 4-6) were non existant.

There were also some holes. In Return of the Jedi, Luke asks Leah if she remembers their mother. Leah says, "Yes, a little. She was very beautiful and very sad." So you were thinking......well, y'all who have seen it will know why this was not connected. It was infered in the Original SW trilogy that Luke and Leah's BIO mom died of a broken heart AFTER the twins were sent away, and that L&L's BIO mom (who we know know to be Padme) was alive for severeal years, contiued to raise Leah, after Darth turned to the Dark Side and she married King Organa but died of a broken heart over Anikin. But in Sith, King (then Sentator) Organa's wife and he were both alive until the Death Star destroyed thier planet in Episode 4. (OMG, I AM a Geek!) There were other inconsistancies, too. The switch to the Dark Side could have been better done, in terms of character.

And the dialogue was AWFUL. I spent more time squirming for the actors than enjoying the film. I think there was ONE actual out loud laugh from the audience (when Yoda comes into the room with the Sith Lord and just bumps the guards aside with the Force, really causually.) The rest was too serious, there could have been some humor. And they could have given Padme more to do than just sit around looking sad.

Huck said:

He just wanted to get in her pants. You would also think that with their advanced medical technology, the birth not only would have been painless, but they could have saved her, whether she "lost the will to live" or not.

Also the entire "There was no father." thing was left up in the air. If he was the "chosen one" why was he so easy to turn? I guess it left room for Luke to turn against the Dark Side in Return of the Jedi, when he was temped by Vader.

And yeah, those babies looked to be about 3 months old. No way they were preterm twins. They were cute, though. (My kids said the same baby was both of them.) How come Leah got to be raised as Royalty and Luke had to live in a mud hut in a desert?

If you look at Episode One. Yoda was VERY concerned about Anikin's stability. He was NOT ever convinced that training him was a good idea. See the first one again. Yoda is always suspicious of Anikin.

 

LOL, Oh that's classic. Kinda like Titanic, guess what? It sinks!!!!

 

Medically speaking, when people get 3rd degree burns, their esophagus and lungs are almost always damaged. This made sense to me. Lots of damage from burns occur on the inside of the body as well. Sweling and edema ect in addition to exposure to either whatever burned them or even their own burning flesh. Most people In the Real World, would not have survived such burns, but it they did, they would have breathing problems their entire lives.

 

Decent movie but it was kinda like good sex without an orgasm. Disappointing.

 

Leia says that she died when she was very young, and all she can remember are images really...

i think the common aceptance is that it is the Force gave her those...where did you get that Padme lived for a few years after the birth?

 

Really? I thought the commonly accepted opinion was that it was a continuity error.

 

I thought Leah had said something to the fact that she did remember her mother. She would have had to have been a few years old. I don't remember if it was actually said, though.

 

I've got a question. Is it my imagination or was Count Dooku's name spelt Douku in Episode II?

 

Yeah, but all in all, he was pretty dimwitted. He didn't even have a clue or seem to care whose death Anakin kept dreaming about, yet Palpatine could "sense" that Vader was in danger across the galaxy! At the very least, why wouldn't Yoda simply ask Anakin about this?

Plus, if Yoda and Obi Wan had just double-teamed Palpatine, they could've easily taken him out and then hunted down Vader together. Splitting up was moronic.

 

i saw it last night with some friends and i really liked it. but the thing i don't get is why aniken stayed w/ the emperor even after padme (sp?) died. i thought the only reason he did all that stuff in the first place was to save her?

 

hey man i seed teh moovy and is kiked magors a$$ ^0^

 

It certainly sucked a little less then the other two.

The parts with dialogue were still mind numbing, but the action almost made up for it.

This movie did reinforce my idea that Emperor Palpatine was the protagonist. His goal was to unite the republic and end the war, and the jedi wanted to incite revolution and keep the status quo where a back water religion is a major political force and keep the war going on for years.

The Jedi certainly weren't the protagonists...

Have you ever wondered what it'd be like being a janitor on the death star?

 

most of the acting was just awful, ewan mcgregor was dead on for appearance though...

 

I think Yoda was the most convincing actor in the series.

 

|Well, y'know..... not so sure. Phantom was an OK movie if you can ignore Jar Jar. Young Anakin's a matter of personal preference, but he didn't bother me that much. The pod race was much more involving than any action scene in the later movies and the light sabre fights have yet to be topped, IMHO. The duel between the two jedi and Darth Maul was exquisite. Much better than the damp squib of a fight between Obi-Wana and Anakin. AOTC also seemed to have a stronger story. Where ROTS was riddled with inconsistencies, the plot at least hung together a little better in the middle move.

Kinda like the henchmen in Austin Powers, I should imagine
