Star Wars Episode III

maybe Georgy will relent and let Steven Speilburg do the next three. shame Harrison Ford will be too old by that stage ... i mean, he made star wars... added a level of interaction between him and Leah which made it more realistic despite all that was going on around.

George let slip that there is going to be another Indy Jones. I forgot he was the producer... i presume Steven will remain the director... well one hopes so anyway.

Well...the originals were amazing, especially for the time in which they were created. Nobody had ever seen anything like star wars before. The scale was enormous, the story was larger than life (yet kept strong ties to convential cinema, i.e. Westerns), and it was just plain done right.

I think the reason it got to be such a huge thing, relies strongly on the depth of the story. More accurately, the depth of the stories. Lucas had written all 6 (at least in a basic form) episodes before he made the original three (4,5,6). So, for instance, you see the bounty hunter come for Han Solor in episode 4 and then find out more about it in 5 & 6. The link between Vader and Luke is shown, Luke and Lea, Han and Chewbacca, etc., etc...There was just so much going on and it all fit right into place as the films progressed. It gives a lot of different angles for the fanatics to latch onto. Then, as fans started getting out of hand, more books were written, alien creatures explained, the jedi explained more in-depth, an entire new world was formed for the fans to explore and learn about. I guess it just goes back to human nature, the need to find out what's just beyond our borders. And because the stories were written out before the first film was ever made, you didn't get the usual crap that comes with sequels. They didn't just add a character here, and subtract a character there. You followed the same core group through the entire war.

I'm not much of a fan anymore, but I used to be a huge super nerd fan. I was such a big fan that I swore off seeing the 2nd and 3rd episodes becuase of the way Lucas butchered the 1st. lol, think about it...that takes some serious devotion.

yeah... 1st was real bad, i thought that 2nd was alright but the classics are still the best

are they gona b redoing the classics in the style of 1,2+3?

I have not seen it yet, but I plan on going to the movies this week to see it. I have heard that it was the best out of the three as well.

On Wednesday, a lot of kids said that their parents were actually waiting at the movie theaters in a huge line to get in. I don't think that I would ever do something like this just to see a movie.

[Kritacul]

I just saw it and ALL most all my questions were answered.
I have a few that have seen the movie already to ask.
But overall, great movie...4.5/5 stars.
The best in all the prequels.
So no more StarWars after this right?
Or am I just another movie watcher who doesn't know shit about the "World of StarWars"?

[robgasm]

i think that they will continue on, and do 4,5+6 again - prolly spaz them up but oh well

[Kidd]

they should make episode 7 and show luke's school of Jedi
