This thread is for fans of Star Wars, and I'm actually surprised a thread like this wasn't already around. I've absolutely loved Star Wars for a very long time....Anyway, use this thread to discuss anything and everything Star Wars: the movies, EU (Expanded Universe: books, video games, etc...) this is a funny video: www.atomfilms.com/sw/content/ewok_elevator

I'm not a massive Star Wars fan. It's ok, and parts of it are awesome, but the latest trilogy was sooooo bad. Empire Strikes Back rocks though!

good pick deskp I went on the Star Wars board and searched through my old posts and found a review I wrote up on Revenge of the Sith almost a year ago. Here it is: www.galacticsenate.com/index.php?showtopic=14771&st=0&p=701689entry701689the reason I posted that is because I will be doing the same for X3 when it comes out and i'm guessing others will do the same as well. and now, the galaxy's most annoying alien, Salacious Crumb:

Karma for you for starting this thread. Star Wars was what got me into Geekdom. I love all 6 movies. Yes..I even enjoyed the Prequels. They're not perfect, but neither were the original trilogy, I mean Ewoks? Fave Jedi: I'm torn between Obi Wan and Yoda. Qui-Gon and Mace get a noteable mention and the one that never speaks, but looks like a hard mutha..Plo Koon. Aaaaw Salacious Crumb...I thought he was so cute lol

lol thanks, I still think this thread was a long time coming! For me, it's between Obi-Wan and Mace Windu as far as jedi go. but also, Darth Sidious is amazing in these films, epecially in ROTS....Bravo Ian McDiarmid!

Hail Iain McDiarmid! He was deliciously malicious and devious. You can see him completely manipulating the whole thing and poor Anakin falls for it. lol Redeemed at the end. Awesome.
Aw man I'm gushing here... ;D

*high fives* Did you feel sorry for Anakin all the way through the Prequels? I mean already having the knowledge of what he would become... I did. I also think Hayden got a horribly bad rep. He was supposed to be petulant, whiny, annoying. He was a 10 year old boy forced to grow up too soon and was immature. *huggles Hayden* Poor, Poor Hayden. Oo we should totally have one of those clubs like the Fellowship. Call it the Jedi Council or the Rebellion or something.

hmmm that could be a good idea indeed...I think we could let people choose sides, they could either be a member of the Jedi Order or the Sith...maybe? I dunno, what do you think? or maybe that would complicate things too much....

Ah I love Star Wars. I love all the movies. Episodes 4-6 had better storylines (and dialogue), but Episodes 1-3 had better lightsaber fights. And Hayden Christensen as Anakin Skywalker...well I like the guy. In Revenge of the Sith he did well. AOTC-not so much. I mean, there isn't much you can do with the dialogue Lucas gives to you, but I think he could have maybe done it a bit better.
That being said, I'm pretty sad the Saga is over.

Well, you have to also remember that Lucas also doesn't have many takes. 1 or 2 takes and he is pretty happy. lol. So I think Hayden did the best he could with what he had to work with.
