I would have to go see Star Wars in 3D! My kids have never seen the original trilogy on the big screen!

Besidesit gives me a chance to see it again!

Here's hoping he focuses on the original trilogy first in 3D - then he can go f*ck around with the prequels. The original trilogy in 3D in theaters would be insane... drool1.gif

Indeed!!!

Lost all respect for Lucas when he released the re-makes of the originals. Some stuff it added. But, most times it degraded the movies. Then, when I saw the pre-quels. Ish...

 

Ironically, my son loves Ep. I-III. I prefer the orignal theatrical releases of Ep IV-VI.

Although I'm really interested in the politics of the epis 1-3,(to see what happened to The Republic to spawn The Empire) I find the stories, acting and SFX so dreadful, I have a very difficult time getting through them without wandering like a goldfish. Call me gramps but it's 4-6 for me.

I find some of the acting, some of the story, and a lot of the dialogue dreadful for the prequels, but the special effects were literally out of this world. I don't know how you could put THAT down. no.gif

I agree the FX were remarkable so I made a mistake in including them in what I found dreadful. It was the volume of them that I couldn't handle. Weren't all three movies done almost exclusively in front of a green screen? Visually the movies were impressive but it was just visual overload. Just too damn much FX for me. Like I said before...call me gramps but I prefer a soundstage over a green screen (I know....$$$$$).

"Visual overload" is certainly true for the second film, "Attack of the Clones."

 

"Ummm... what the hell is happening? I can't tell with that busy background and all the laser blasts. Who shot whom?" I can understand that younger generations want/need more stimulation than we did, but there's such a thing as too much action.

Hey, I'm kinder to the prequels than anyone else I know, but I still think they're less than a tenth as good as Eps. 4-6.

I've seen that before, but had forgotten about it.

 

Yep, GREAT picture. How many of us guys loved Fisher in that "slave girl" outfit? Thanks, George!

Episode 1 was nice

Episode 2 sucks big time

Episode 3 is easily the best of these three I thinks it holds up pretty well exept for one thing:

 

How can you trust a guy that looks like that!

Nice "money shot" Dave.

 

Have you ever seen the big budget porno called "Space Nuts" with the great Stormy Daniels?

 

Classic stuff. This scene should have been in the movie.

 

I'm surprised Lucas didn't sue.
