AO: We are back from the dead... again! After an 18 day outage, we are finally alive and well. Who knew how complicated updating software/databases from 2008 would be. I still have alot of tweaks to make, but my main goal was getting everything patched and updated to 2026.
Vbulletin 6 has changed alot since 2008 so we will have a ton of new features to dig into.
what?? episode 1 was good. darth maul was a bonafide pimp, until his "split" personality cut it's way in. episode 2 was a bit mushy
They were good, but not up to par with all the older ones. As a stand alone movie, not too bad. But he just did not make of a good as a movie as he did in the 70's.
i love star wars. in fact i just watched the dvd's literally minutes before i got on here. ha. maybe i'm the only one who noticed.. but the music in the ewok party scene is like.. a remix. i think i actually like the new music better. i agree on the CGI stuff. way out of place. and i was wondering... the original VHS and the enhanced DVD's are practically the same time. How?? I thought they stuck in a lot of stuff on the enhanced... did they take stuff out?? The CGI of the cities at the end was totally new. and probably some other stuff. i wasn't totally with it (kinda have a headache), so they may not have added anything else. it just seemed weird.
I think the biggest problem older people have with the new movies is that there is no longer a sense of wonderment. When episode IV came out it was nothing like we had ever seen before. The entire package was incredible. I know I was amazed at the whole story and being amazed at the spaceships and battle scenes. In a sense you could say we were innocent.
Now we are spoiled by all of the effects and the CGI so the story no longer captures us like the old movies do. We have lost that innocence we had when we were younger. I enjoy all of the movies. Its easy to pick them apart and have arguments of old vs. new. There are definitely things in all of them I don't enjoy but I try to take them all in their context as the complete story that Lucas is try tell. Most of all i'm going to enjoy watching them with my son when he gets a little older.

Agreed.
To me, the original SW movies were so great because the technology (in society() was there, but it wasnt overly done; some of the scenes seem like places you could find in realm life. The new movies practically shove technology down your thorat, it detracts from the story. The old saying "Less is more" really couldnt be any more correct.

i'm still wondndering how on starwars battlefront that the droid's jetpack can last longer than the empire's jetpack when the droid's is supposed to be about 40 year older technology.
WTF?!
