The best SW movie

[Calax]

I'm thinking of getting the box set DVD for the prequels.  I'll comment in-depth after I've wached all 3 again.

 

The sequels definitely pwn the prequels' lightsaber fights and for imagery.  What they miss though is a likeable character like Han Solo and the fun feeling of adventure (M.Falcon capers etc).

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

ummmm are you thinking of the sequels as Ep's 1 2 and 3? because they were the ones without Han, but they had the better lightsaber fights........ GAH STOP CONFUSING ME.

[Atreides]

Yeah, got them mixed up sorry

I'm going to get all 6 movies when the come out in a DvD set together.

I can't hide it anymore I voted for The Phantom Menace (w00t)

[ShadowPaladin V1.0]

It should have at least two votes then.

[Darth Vagula]

1: Epi 6 TROTJ (I just love it)

2: Epi 3 ROTS (Prety good)

3: Epi 5 TESB (Prety good)

 

And epi 4 was good, Epi 2 was average and Phantom was crap.

[Lancer]

1: Epi 6 TROTJ

2: Epi 3 ROTS

3: Epi 5 TESB

Good taste Darth Vagula, that's exactly how I have it

 

TESB is a tad overrated and ROTJ is very underrated, IMHO.

[Pidesco]

I would do this order:

 

IV

V

VI

III

II

I

 

 

To me it's a bit strange how everyone thinks so well of ROTS, while complaining so much about the other prequels. I thought that the first part of ROTS was as bad eps I and II. Granted, it was a lot of fun to watch the Jedi getting killed "en masse" and see all that evilness taking hold of the galaxy but it still didn't make up for that awful first half.

[Darth Vagula]

I didnt like the ending of the epi 6 though. Aargh i hate when the good guys win. But Palpy was so cool that i got a love it.

The "cuteness" the first half hour or so of ROTS was reminiscent of TPM. Although admittedly funny, I felt it didn't fit well alongside the much darker hour and a half that followed. I felt like this detracted from the movie slightly, (especially for one that was billed to be very dark)although, still overall a pretty good movie.

It is ironic though that nobody complains about this in ROTS yet on first mention of the ewoks of ROTJ most don't hesitate to trounce that movie.

Would people hate me if I voted for Episode I?

the movie had good moments and music, but it sucked, Ep.3 and Ep.5 were great, i voted Ep5

[Darth Flatus]

One of the best bits in Ep 2 is when Jango was relieved of his head, oh how i laughed.

That was a good bit. The whole sequence was like Helms Deep, even to the point of having "Gandalf" ride to the rescue with the army.

[Darth Flatus]

I didnt expect the yoda fight - i almost wet myself with excitement as soon as he started flipping about.

[Kor Qel Droma]

I felt the same way. I remember looking at the crowd of people in the theatre , all with their jaws dropped...

Am I the only one who thought it looked really silly?

 

Probably

[alanschu]

Most of my theatre was laughing too.

 

 

I thought it was a little silly personally too.

No. And when I saw the Yoda fight scene I nearly burst out laughing. (I actually did when everyone else did) AOTC was by far the most kiddish of the movies.

bet you embarrassed yourself in the the theatre because you were the only one who thought that was funny.

[Atreides]

I think Ep2 is a little underrated. To some degree Lucas' imagination was no longer constrained by technology like perhaps it was 20 years ago. If not for the awkward romance, the prequels would get higher ratings.

[mr insomniac]

Episode IV.

No, there were 1000+ ppl where i saw it and they found it funny too. Nobody has a fettish but you.

[EnderAndrew]

When I say AoTC on opening night, all the hardcore Star Wars fans seemed to really like it on the intial viewing. I think it loses luster however on repeat viewings.

[Darth Flatus]

I concur. I watched it in opening night theatre full of SW geeks Anthony daniels even came out to introduce it and I was like OMG this is awesome. On subsequent viewings this opinon changed - i am thankful for teh abilty to skip chapters. :D

 

I heard that the IMAX version was cut short to fit the reel and they cut out all the crappy romance bits.
