| O&A Board Veteran Registered: Sep. 00 | quote:I hated the death sticks scene SO FUCKING MUCH! Yes we know smoking is bad, you don't have to put it in your movie calling them "death sticks." Couldn't the marketers a long time ago in a galaxy far away think of a better name anyway? And yes, Episode 3 is going to be darker becuase it has to be. Anakin's going to have to turn evil in that one. However, it might not end on a downnote. They can always end it with the birth of Luke and Leia which can mean that even with all the hell we've gone through, there is always a new hope which would be kind of upbeat.

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Dec. 01 | quote:Actually that was one of the scenes where the Lucas humor worked imo. It's not necessarily a cigarettte reference. You'd be amazed at what kind of drugs you can buy nowadays. At least they've (or references to such things)finally made there way into the Star Wars subculture. IMO jedi mind trick = funny shit. | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Jan. 01 | I saw it this afternoon and i really liked it. It's up there with Empire. Sure the acting was poor. But the acting for each one has been poor. You dont go to see it for the acting. The CGI were amazing. Yoda fucking rocks. And seeing little bobba holding his dads head was cool. Gee i wonder who will kill Mace in episode 3? All in all it totally made up for the disappointment in TPM. And it did beat spiderman at the box office. This message was edited by PatCooper on 5-19-02 @ 5:59 PM | ||||

| Psychopath Registered: Oct. 01 | I am a little lost on the death of the jedi knights. in a new hope, does vader actually kill obi wan or is that some kind of suicide manuever. immediately he disappears. when yoda dies in return, he disappears as well. when vader dies, he doesnt disappears, but that makes sense because he turned to the dark side, yet he still passes to the spiritual realm. but when qui gonn dies he doesnt disappear and is never shown in the spiritual realm like the others. and finally, in ep 2, during the battel scene, the arena is littered with dead jedis, still intact. what decides whether they disappear or not? "This is my BOOM stick..." "It's not rape, it's suprise sex!" | ||||

| Psychopath Registered: Jan. 02 | Allright...saw it tonight...time to rant: Dissapointing movie, plain and simple. Why dissapointing? TOO MUCH INFORMATION! It seems they were trying to give too many plot points in the whole saga and it bled together poorly. Best scene (not counting Portman's midriff)? Yoda kicking ass with a lightsaber... Worst scene? Any scene without Yoda kicking ass with a lightsaber.. Now...time for random points: - It would have been nice to have the Fett's be a bit more pivotal. But then Darth Maul had shit for character development, as well. - Ummm...50's-ish diner with salt/pepper shakers and napkin dispensers...did Lucas lose a bet? - "I've always thought of you" "I missed you" "I love you" It's not right" WE FUCKING GET IT!!!!!! - The scene in the droid factory with the conveyor belts seemed a bit too much like it was trown in so that they would have another level on the Star Wars Episode 2 video game. This movie did make me realize the greatest part about being a Jedi though. It isin't having the remote control fly to you from across the room...It isin't severing limbs with your lightsaber and not worrying about blood/evidence getting on you....It isin't even using your Jedi mind power to have strippers give you a happy ending. It's wearing your bathrobe to work everyday! How cool is that! "Which lightsaber is mine? It's the purple one that says Bad Mother Fucker, bitch!"  | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00 | quote: I agree. And I particularly liked the same feeling when Anakin was talking about how he kicked Tusken Raider ass to Padme' with the Imperial music in the backround. As far as Ep. 3 good vs. sad ending goes... At the beginning of the orginal Star Wars, the "words in space" tell of a great victory for the rebellion. So I see a huge battle with the rebels coming out on top. But I wonder how Anakin is gonna get FUBAR to become dependent on the armor that we see in Eps. 4-6. What I would really like to see, is Vader come back and kill Portman. That would really solidify his going to the Dark side, but that would require a gap in time within the movie which I doubt will happen. Last point on Ep 2 ... it was really weird seeing the Jedi and clones/stormtroopers fighting side by side. Jengo Fett is a pussy who gets his ass kicked. That's why the stormtroopers suck in all the "future" movies. Boba Fett seeing his "father" get killed and being not geneticallty changed in any way set-up why HE'S the bad-ass! May the Force be with you! (I have a bad feeling about this!) :-D  Thanks to Grumpy for his help with the sig. I LOVE THE PSYCHO BITCH! Roger: Look, It's Luke Perry's Junk. Ant: Where?

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Jan. 01 | quote:I was thinking the same exact thing! ("This would make a killer map to play in a game!") I'm not gonna dissect the whole movie - overall I thought it was good. I thought the action was right on target (once we got to it), and I think the whole love-subplot could've been done with about 3 or 4 less scenes. Episode 3 should be interesting - it HAS to be badass. Vader in Ep. 4 was pretty badass, so a younger-Vader will have to tear new assholes across the board. What I would like to see is Lucas considering doing parts 7-9 as he originally intended to back in the 70's. Let's face it - the majority of making these new movies is spent in the editing room working with CGI and digital enhancements, so all he would really have to do is get the stories into workable screenplays and bang them out over 6 years.

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Jan. 01 | quote: The rumor is that he will get FUBAR in a light saber battle against Obi Wan. Whether or not this is true, who knows... quote: There wouldn't really need to be a large gap in time, just time enough for her to give birth to the twins. The movie could span the course of a year, with Anakin and Padme starting off having problems, splitting up, her finding out she's pregnant, giving birth to the twins, and secretly sending them away. (Leia to the Organas, and Luke to Owen and Beru on Tatooine) It's going to be interesting to see how the story unfolds. I think Lucas will have to work extra hard on this one to make it somewhat unpredictable, since it's the last of the trilogy and we know how it picks up in Ep. 4.

| Psychopath Registered: Mar. 02 | I always remembered hearing about a fight between OB1 and Anakin above a molten lava pit. OB1 kicks his ass and leaves him for dead. Thus then making Anakin needing to rely on the armor. At least we know that we will see Darth Vader in EP3. James Earl Jones has already been recruited to do vocal lines. | ||||

| Psychopath Registered: Oct. 00 | ***Just rumors but potential Ep 3 spoilers*** I heard the same thing that Anakin and Obi Wan are battling near a volcano and Anakin falls in. Obi Wan believes him to be dead and leaves or is forced to leave. The Emperor takes him and places him in the life support suit and teaches him about the darkside. Thus setting off his genocidal urges with his all new powers. At the end Leia is given to Jimmy Smits(he's Bail Organa) and Luke is given to Anakin's step brother. Now whether or not Padme is still alive is the question? | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00 | FBD Really quick, as far as Lucas never using and refuting other Author's stuff... 2 things negate that. Due to a title published between A New Hope and Empire called "Splinter of the Mind's Eye" and the fact that this title went completely off track of where the story was going after Empire was released, Lucas now reviews and authorizes ALL Star Wars fiction before it can be published to ensure continuity (ie: Skywalker's always a whiner, etc.. etc..) Maul's lightsaber was stolen right from the Sith Wars Graphic Novel series, originally the only double bladed lightsabre to ever exist belonged to a Sith lord named Exar Kun from said series. As far as Jedi's bodies disappearing when they died, it has nothing to do with being a Jedi Master, Neither Obi-wan nor Vader were "masters" Yoda, Obi-wan, and the redeemed Annakin, all ALLOWED their bodies to die. Yoda and Obi-wan sacrificed their bodies so that their spirits could guide Luke through his trails with vader, and, well, the redeemed Annakin WAS Luke's father and would probably want to at least observe his son for a while. In fact, even Palpatine was able to perform the same stunt, though he used it to transfer his life-force to new clones of himself in order to prolong his life, in fiction that followed the movies. Again, all things in fiction published after Empire is authenticated by Lucas before publication, and unless a movie directly contradicts it can be considered true in the Star Wars universe. As far as Annakin/Vader getting FUBAR and requiring the life support suit, I can't recall if it's from "From Welle's Journal" (Lucas's original backplot story) or later fiction, but the situation is (at least until seen on screen) suppossed to be the result of a duel with Obi-Wan wherein Annakin lost his hand (allready negated by Episode 2) received the scar on the back of his head, and was knocked into a pit of molten lava or metal.  No! I am NOT a Goth Dude!! "You don't know what it's like, you don't have a clue If you did you'd find yourselves doing the same thing too!!" | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Dec. 01 | quote:I didn't cringe in that I wasn't thinking that oh geez this is corny. I actually thought that it was kinda funny. Now let's get down to business... The more I think about it the more annoyed I get with this movie. The whole "Gone with the Wind" scene where Padme and Anakin are frolicing in the field almost brought on nasseua (both then and in retrospect). Also the scene with Obi Wan, Yodi and the little shit kids looking at the star map looking for the "missing" planet was just plain stupid. Does a Jedi night need a bunch of little jackoffs to tell him the obvious? Is gravity that foreign a concept in Star Wars land? The scene was bullshit and stupid. It was obviously Lucas' attempt to lather up all the soccer mom's who took their little brats to the movie. Fucking sell out piece of shit. The new technologies Lucas and collegues created are his worst enemy as far as I can see. First, he destroy's some of my favorite scenes in the original trilogy. Then he puts out scenes in the new movies (like I've described above) that make you want to stand up in the theater and spit on a handicapped person. Everything is completely saturated with CGI and completely dry and hollow when it comes to dialog. The story line itself is good, but he really needs to smooth out the details. | ||||

| Psychopath Registered: Jan. 01 | Hurm. . .I liked how we found out that the succession (Paduan Learners) went Yoda-->Count Dooku-->Qui Gon-->Obi Wan-->Anakin - that's pretty cool. Also, Yoda was the bomb. I loved how he just opened his little coat and the saber just jumped into his hand - NICE. All in all - not bad. I got chills when the Jedi's arrived at the arena - and Mace lopping off Jango Fett's head was fucking perfect. Maybe Boba will kill him in Episode three. It will be an ILL duel if Anakin and Obi Wan go at it. But, I think I summed it up best when I was leaving the theatre - "Well, that's it. Another three years. . ."  NORTON IS GOD | ||||

| O&A Board Veteran Registered: Sep. 00 | I remember reading in the original Star Wars novelizations which I can't find now but when I do I'll repost it that it was a battle with Obi-won that caused Anikan to fall in molten lava causing him to become Vader.
