Star Wars

Enjoyable escapist nosense

This is the best thing about star wars

The Phantom Menace was poor and diluted the original trilogy, parts two and three continued this. In fact, it started when the special editions of the original came out.

Watched I, II, IV, V and VI on tv recently and only the original stood up. The others where just a massive CGI headache or dull (the Jedi training sequence in Empire... drags and drags, and the Emperor appears to be trying to bore luke to death in the closing stages of Jedi

The original is the best and is the only one that still manages to be a good film.

I'll stick with Indy.

The original 3 are in my top 10 of all time - bloody love them.

I would say PARTS of the new trilogy are too. The Darth Maul v Obi Wan fight is IMMENSE - really enjoyed that bit.

Like all the originals, the new trilogy just buggered about with the latest technology (like it or not, it looks tremendous) and had a far-fetched fantasy storyline in the foreground. That's why I love the franchise.

I could watch any of the 6 films right now, and enjoy them all. In my opinion, I rate them from best to worst as follows:

5

4

6

3

1

2

HOWEVER - I think the best Star Wars story ever is the AMAZING Knights Of The Old Republic - how I'd love them to make that into a film - one of the best plot twists ever, and a FIT female Jedi. I never finished KOTOR 2, but the original is sheer class.

You can find fault with any of the six, Episode 2 being the guiltiest party IMO. However, Lucas’ constant tinkering with the films is a total disgrace. He should be strung up by the bollox for changing the music at the end of Return of the Jedi. By the bollox.

A New Hope is the worst of the original three. With ease.

[Langdale Wolf]

No way! Return of the Jedi is little more than a lazy re-tread of A New Hope with better special effects.

How can anything with the f**king ewoks in it and the emperors 56-part speech about Luke joining the 'daaaaaaaark siiiiiiide' be better than anything?

A New Hope is fast, exciting and unpretentious, Empire is grand but plodding and Jedi is a special effects showpiece. yet they still manage to be better than parts I-III

Don't watch them then.

[oafc0000]

Well then we have no right in having a pop at the recent 3 movies surely? Or any piece of film, music ever??!!

Its one thing releasing new films but pricking about with the old ones after 25 years is a bit much.

P.S. Hanging him by the bollox is a bit extreme granted!

Its not what I am saying...

Its fine to hold a opinion about a piece of work... film, music art...etc...

Its quite another to feel you have some sort of ownership over it like you seem to present...

If I created something and someone changed it....that would be a disgrace...

Someone changing there own work cant ever be describe as a disgrace etc... The end result might not have been to your tastes but thats different...

[nightcrawler13]

i saw an action figure of a female darth maul today called Darth Talon

hot

[Sparticus]

don't even mention the star wars figures, there's a good chance i spent more on those as a kid than i have done on all the naughty stuff when you're an adult, and now it resides in the chest next to me collecting dust lol. Ipods are cheap as chips compared to those bloody things lol.

[Acquiesce.]

I only think Samuel L Jackson and Jar Binks(I refuse to acknowledge the ridiculous repition) are the worst things about the six films.

Empire FTW.
