Just in case you haven't seen the trailers, http://www.aol.com/starwars/trailer/index.adp (http://www.aol.com/starwars/trailer/index.adp) and http://www.gringo.is/sws.avi (http://www.gringo.is/sws.avi).

After episodes 1 and 2, I'd rather drown to death in puke.

That's an interesting way to put it.

As for me, I don't mind watching it with friends after the exams, so I voted 'yes'.

After the first two prequels, I don't think theres any hope for this one. I'm sticking with the originals. :whatever:

I'm not really expecting anything great, but that's not going to stop me from going to see it.  The other two movies were okay, but nowhere near as good as the original trilogy.  Though I doubt it will happen, I still hope this one will make up for the shortcomings in the other two.

I'll definitely go see it if I have the money, but I'm not expecting a great story.

Lightsaber duels will be enough. Besides. Vader is back. I don't expect it to measure up to the originals, though. Lucas can never recreate how impressive a Star Destroyer was. And it's Anakin in a suit for episode 3, and his character was dreadful. Bah.

Post by: Paladin0707077 on March 13, 2005, 07:18:33 AM
Yeah, I'll see it, because I'm a Star Wars freak. But it will be kind of sad: with the Original Espisodes, if it was your first time watching them, and you got to Episode V and heard Vader reveal to Luke who he really was...well, it was shocking and horrifying at once. But with the new episodes, if you're new to the series, and you see them BEFORE seeing the originals...well, you kind of know what to expect, so you don't get the same shock during Episode V you used to... :(

That, and The Original Episodes were ground breaking films for Sci-Fi. The new episodes are not.

...and that's my story and I'm sticking to it! :lol:

I'd post a link to a Penny Arcade comic, but I'd get in trouble.

Post by: Pwincess on March 13, 2005, 09:40:31 PM
Haven't seen Episode 1 or 2, so I guess that I'm not looking forward to Episode 3...

(Episode 4, 5 and 6 were great)  ^_^  


Title: Are you looking forward to Star Wars Episode 3?
Post by: Corsair5 on March 13, 2005, 11:17:40 PM
Well, obviously, Pwincess.


Title: Are you looking forward to Star Wars Episode 3?
Post by: Ignus_Draconus on March 15, 2005, 01:59:17 AM
four, five and six were landmarks. one and two were failed attempts to measure up. I'll still watch three though


Title: Are you looking forward to Star Wars Episode 3?
Post by: Corsair5 on March 15, 2005, 07:45:18 PM
That's what I'm thinking. Who knows. Maybe the Return (Or the Begin) of Darth Vader will be good.


Title: Are you looking forward to Star Wars Episode 3?
Post by: Pwincess on March 16, 2005, 07:36:41 AM
Are episodes 1 and 2 worth watching?


Title: Are you looking forward to Star Wars Episode 3?
Post by: Jafar on March 16, 2005, 08:31:38 AM
Not really. Not unless you watch them with the intent to make fun ofall the bad acting and plot holes. :P  


Title: Are you looking forward to Star Wars Episode 3?
Post by: Striker on March 16, 2005, 01:36:26 PM
If you enjoy stuff blowing up and cool lasers and can not pay attention to the flaws Jafar mentioned, then yeah, it's worth it.  Just remember not to expect anything great when stacked up against the Original Trilogy.


Title: Are you looking forward to Star Wars Episode 3?
Post by: Swift on March 16, 2005, 01:41:00 PM
I suppose watching 1 and 2 will only serve to reenforce why 4, 5 and 6 are good.


Title: Are you looking forward to Star Wars Episode 3?
Post by: Corsair5 on March 16, 2005, 04:58:35 PM
As stand alone movies, they'd be okay. But I think Lucas isn't putting a lot of mental effort or good acting into it because he's sure people will go see it simply because of Lightsabers and blasters.


Title: Are you looking forward to Star Wars Episode 3?

Explosions are nice, but they can't save a movie.

No, he's counting on cool lightsaber fighting.

Which was totally left out in Episode 2... :rolleyes:

Yoda and Dooku.


Title: Are you looking forward to Star Wars Episode 3?
Post by: Jafar on March 17, 2005, 04:20:53 PM
That was totally UNCOOL.


Title: Are you looking forward to Star Wars Episode 3?
Post by: Corsair5 on March 17, 2005, 04:22:18 PM
Yeah, I know. It took away Yoda's whole mysteriousness and made him look like a rodeo clown.


Title: Are you looking forward to Star Wars Episode 3?

The battle earlier wasn't much better. You just saw faces with light reflecting onto them. :whatever:  


Title: Are you looking forward to Star Wars Episode 3?
Post by: Corsair5 on March 17, 2005, 04:31:27 PM
But when Anakin got sliced, that was funny.


Title: Are you looking forward to Star Wars Episode 3?
Post by: Jafar on March 17, 2005, 04:32:10 PM
That brought of SO many rumors of Dooku being Anakin's father.


Title: Are you looking forward to Star Wars Episode 3?
Post by: Corsair5 on March 17, 2005, 04:34:22 PM
God, I hope not. If Dooku says "Anakin....I..am your father" then I will fly off the handle and chunk a rock at the movie screen.


Title: Are you looking forward to Star Wars Episode 3?
Post by: Jafar on March 17, 2005, 04:41:27 PM
It's bad enough that Anakin was "born from the force". :rolleyes:  


Title: Are you looking forward to Star Wars Episode 3?
Post by: Corsair5 on March 17, 2005, 04:47:06 PM
Yeah, that gives a weird mental image.

Title: Are you looking forward to Star Wars Episode 3?
Post by: Corsair5 on March 17, 2005, 05:04:34 PM
You know what would make Episode 3 good?

Anakin being decapitated.


Title: Are you looking forward to Star Wars Episode 3?
Post by: Jafar on March 17, 2005, 05:05:37 PM
Though it would screw up the plot worse then anything that happened in the last 2...


Title: Are you looking forward to Star Wars Episode 3?
Post by: Corsair5 on March 17, 2005, 05:06:01 PM
No, it wouldn't. Vader was lying.


Title: Are you looking forward to Star Wars Episode 3?
Post by: Jafar on March 17, 2005, 05:06:57 PM
So YOU'RE the one who gives Lucas those insane ideas! :angry:  


Title: Are you looking forward to Star Wars Episode 3?
Post by: Corsair5 on March 17, 2005, 05:07:38 PM
Hey, Anakin dying would make the movies a HELLUVA lot better.

I wish, I could just, WISH him away...


Title: Are you looking forward to Star Wars Episode 3?
Post by: Corsair5 on March 17, 2005, 05:09:59 PM
Who knows, maybe Episode three will just be a big long sequence of Anakin being cremated.


Title: Are you looking forward to Star Wars Episode 3?
Post by: Jafar on March 17, 2005, 05:12:08 PM
Even Lucas isn't THAT crazy.


Title: Are you looking forward to Star Wars Episode 3?

I dunno.


Title: Are you looking forward to Star Wars Episode 3?
Post by: Jafar on March 17, 2005, 05:15:10 PM
Then again, he made Palpatine tell Vader about his son in the DVDs...

You mean "We have a new enemy..Luke..Skywalker"?
 


Title: Are you looking forward to Star Wars Episode 3?

They altered that part in the DVDs. Horrible.

Stab Lucas.

Another Star Wars fan here.... I want to see it because the damn trailer got me hooked enough to see it.....  


Title: Are you looking forward to Star Wars Episode 3?
Post by: Corsair5 on March 18, 2005, 01:03:08 AM
Yeah, Jafar, but the toy lightsabers don't cut. Knives do.

yeah, but that's painful. I vote that we hang them from their ankles for a bit.


Title: Are you looking forward to Star Wars Episode 3?
Post by: Corsair5 on March 19, 2005, 04:36:22 PM
How about we continuously prick Lucas' fingers until he bleeds to death?


Title: Are you looking forward to Star Wars Episode 3?
Post by: Ignus_Draconus on March 19, 2005, 05:30:21 PM
what'd I just say about your last suggestion.


Title: Are you looking forward to Star Wars Episode 3?

That it's painful.

That's kind of the whole point.

I haven't really been looking forward to Episode 3. Got much bigger things to think about. Like, Jade Empire. And Hero6. And QFI. And KQ3VGA. And QFG2VGA. And the cheese spread on them walls. And paint drying.

Post by: Corsair5 on July 12, 2005, 05:35:27 PM
Well...at least Anakin really did become Darth Vader. It was pretty sick when he killed the younglings, though I wish it showed him cutting down more Jedi. The Saber duels were really good, too.

It was better than Episode 1 or 2.
