Lucas is moving the whole franchise over to TV. I guess he wanted to create some good lead-ins to a potential series.

man that sucks

Everytime you see though 1 hour long shows they dont turn out good

As a 35 year old male, I can tell you that Star Wars died for me half way through Return of the Jedi. Everything was going along so great until those damn Ewoks showed up. Episodes 1-3 were terrible, but the worst cut of all was altering the original Star Wars.

How about selling your soul for the pre-teen market?

I had forgot about the sissification of Han Solo.

I had forgot about the sissification of Han Solo.

Apparently, Princess Leia tends to have that effect on men. I mean, if you saw her in her Slave Girl bikini, you'd "sissify" yourself pretty quickly to get into that chastity belt...

Anyway, I hate to say it, but Han Solo is more macho than Luke, the great Jedi; however, later on in the books, he finally does come around and start kicking butt.

I meant that Lucas altered the scene to make the alien shoot at Han first. Han shot it under the table and the alien didn't shoot.

May be I should have said that Lucas PC'ed the scene, ala Spielberg in ET turning guns into walkie-talkies. He's getting on my ____-list too.

I forgot where I read this but they actually had a long scene about that but took it out. I'll try and find the source for it.

Well if you haven't bought the other movies digitally remastered. Lucas actually puts alot of extras in them.

Off the top of my head, very strong jedis can basically come back from the force. Blah blah blah. Anakin is in the 6th movie... Lucas put him in digitally. Its pretty tight.

Gotcha!


Here's how the Star Wars Saga goes (read carefully):

In the beginning (Eps. 1-3), the galaxy was all techno-savvy and junk. Lots o' droids that could do lots o' stuff. R2 units had booster jets and battle droids had senses of humor. After Palpatine became the Anti-Jedi; he pretty much axed the galaxy's techno advancements. Things sort of reverted to a "Dark Age" and that's why the HUDs (heads up display) in the X-Wings weren't as modern, and that's why the R2 units no longer had booster packs, yada, yada, yada...etc. and so on.

The reason that Lucas dicked around so much with the OT and made the special editions is because he finally had the technology to make HIS movies the way he wanted to. He has stated many times that he didn't have the technology in 1977 to make SW the way he truly envisioned it. Of course, over the years, his vision has changed, but dammit: THEY ARE HIS MOVIES!!
Get over it people! If you don't like the movies, don't watch them! Then you won't have anything to gripe about and those of us that do like the movies won't have to listen to you bash them!

[Vex]

ok, you're stating two completely different things, how can he have a rough outline and have the the ENTIRE saga written, not the same.

I see how that reads, but that's not what I meant.

I meant that Lucas had a rough outline of the entire story way back when.
Then he wrote the entire saga at the same time (I, II, III, IV, V, VI).
Of course he went back and re-wrote stuff for the first 3 movies. I'm sure there was a lot of stuff that he changed, but the basic story and outline stayed the same. If you read interviews with him, the entire saga was a lot different than it turned out.

I don't like Hayden as Anakin... The kid from EP1 was a much better Anakin. I've thought to myself: "This is supposed to be one of the baddest bad-asses of all time???"

I would have to say that episode 3 rocked. And i'm getting a little tired of people bashing on the movie and saying how unrealistic it is. I mean thats cool if you think that but come on, leave it to yourself. Another thing is that Lucas planned it all out 30 years ago.. He planed out that they all knew echother and thats how they all first met. R2 and 3p0 met in the first serious and have been with eachother the whole series. I would have to say their were a few things that went "wrong" in the movie like when vader stepped off of the chamber he looked like frankinstien. And sometimes palpatine overexaderated. Overall it was a good flick.
