    But Enterprise has the hot Vulcan chick.

    "Girl your ears are so pointy your father must been an elf."

    If I was a Billionaire, I would spend a few billion on getting the Star Wars preqel trilogy right.

    The only two things I felt were done correctly was everything Obi Wan and the casting of Natalie Portman. I would use the most sophistcated GC ever to use those two actors footage and redo everything else. I would basically scrape everthing except the basic premise of the preqels which is Anakin's fall to the darkside and how he becomes Vader.

    Everthing would be redone from the ground up.

    I guess that kind of financial irresponsiblity is exactly why I will never be a billionaire or a millionaire or a thousandaire, well saddly even a mutli hundredaire seems out of my grasp.

    Damn I am broke.

    I need to start a begging website like Sacajaweeda.

    Why do so many people have this anomisoty to the prequels???? I mean people change. Lucas isn't the same person he was when he wrote the original trilogy. He can't make it exactly the same.

    And this is HIS movie. We're along for the ride.

    And need I point out that all of them are or have been in the TOP 20 grossing movies of ALL TIME??????????

    And besides - it's STILL STAR WARS. Nothing matches it. It's too cool to whine and complain about it since you can't change anything anyway!

    It's just like people pining for the ORIGINAL ORIGINAL trilogy. It's NOT GOING TO HAPPEN on dvd so get over it!

    Yeah, I am one of the suckers, I mean fans that went to see Ep 1 in the theatres three or four times.

    Making money doesn't make something good. Have you heard Brittney Spears sing? She makes ass loads of money. Some of her CD's have gone Diamond.

    I think Lucas isn't that good of a director. He is a great producer except that he hired himself as the director and head writer of the prequels, those are his only bad decisions as a producer.

    He can't make it the same I don't want it the same the first trilogy had three director Lucas only Directed Ep 4 ANH.

    But it could be better. He said he wanted Ep two to be a love story, but the love story part only provides campy entertainment , which is probably not what he was going for.

    Have you seen Sky Captian there are a bunch of Stars Wars and Lucas refers. In the back ground. But the biggest is the horrid directing which was doen as an homage to Lucas' directing of the Prequels.

    Lucas did and OK job of directing ANH and American Grafiti, but other than that he hasn't anything well.

    Hello,

    I won't get into a giant argument over this. I like them and you obviously have reseravtions. That's ok.

    I liked Sky Captain. It was very unique.

    All I can say is that LUCAS doesn't do focus groups to find out EXACTLY what people want and for that I am grateful. I don't want cookie cutter movies when it comes to STAR WARS.

    OK let's agree to disagree about Star Wars Prequels.

    But Sky Capt. it was unique but, not really good.

    Sin City uses the same visual style amlost but it looks much better.

    Gweneth Paltrow should have had her Oscar taken away for how bad her performance was in Sky Capt.

    Also there is a Korean movie that was done before Sky Captian and looks better but it hasn't made it to the USA yet.

    Sky Capt could have been good but had too many problems. Special effects and visual style were interesting, but they weren't the first or last to do a movie in this style.

    You're let us keep this civil.

    I think you mean Ashlee.

    Jessica can sing a little at least.

    Ashlee even the tracks she was lipsyncing too sound bad.

    The reason her album sold well is because she is the only one of the MTV POP STAR girls that embraces her whiteness. Most of the other MTV POP girls try to sing R&B.

    Avril Lavinge oh forgot about her another no talent girl who embraces her whiteness.

    There is definately a market for white girls who sound white, but in general most pop is white people that think they are from the 'hood. And it sells better than the other pop becuase stiff like Ashlee simpson is sooo horrid.

    This post sounds awfully racist which is quite funny.

    No I don't listen to the radio and when I watch MTV I usually turn the sound down so it won't break the moment.

    I would never buy that album.

    I walk into 7 Eleven to buy beeer and they were selling it there. I laughed so hard.

    I usually turn down the sound on her acting too, but I think that says more about me than about her.

    Wasn't this thread about Star Wars.

    You said you like Trek more than Wars, that is blasphemy.

    What about B5?

    All the cool kids call it B5. Well not really the cool kids mainly haven't even heard of it.

    I don't, but others believed the movies were magical. I like all of them but still remain practical. Each movie has it's own merits. We see films differently when we are children.

    You are correct. I really liked the battle scene in TPM between the jedi's and the destroyer droids.

    Christina ans Jessica are good for that. Man turn the sound down on Dirrty that's a good time.

    Yeah the Prequels aren't the worst movie ever I own them and went to see them in the theatre multiple times, but they could have been better.

    But what couldn't be better.

    I mean you read my posts on these movies I have obviously seen then quite a few times. My last RANT on them is that I want Anakin to be Vader for a least thirty minutes of the movie. vader won't get thirty minutes of screen time, but he should be Vader at the very least thirty minutes from the end of the movie.

    I wanted the third Ep to be Vader killing Jedi. I knew I wouldn't get this when I saw Ep two.

    sorry about that Yoda, just had to get it out of the system. I am really on Lucas' side I poinred out plot holes then filled them in my posts.

    One of the questions I asked wasn't a plot hole at all, but just inquiring about whether people thought that John Q Imperial citizen even knew of Vader's existence?

    What do you all think?

    Patience is a virtue. We might see quite a bit of vader in the movie. After all , the story is about him.

    I am keeping my expectations low. I will be happy with amount of Vader.

    Unless he puts on the mask and then the film fades to back and says, "The End". As long as it's more than that I will be happy.

    I'm starting to get the feeling that Lucus could send yoda a turd on a plate and he'd defend it to the death.

    As far as StarTrek, unless the next movie is from DS9 forget it. No go for me. I'm sick of StarTrek. I'm sick of scifi for the sake of being scifi.

    You just don't understand how hard it is for a man Lucas' age to have decent bowel movement.

    Look how firm it is he didn't use a laxative even.

    You aren't far off. the Ewok's were actually supposed to be Wookies, but then Lucas thought that making the Wookir\es primative wouldn't make sense since Chewie can pilot a starship.

    Lucas shrunk down the Wookie and made Ewoks.

    Spoiler:




























    For Real this time

































    In Ep 3. Lucas is going to have the Wookie battle he always dreamed of.
