Re: Star Wars EP3 Discussion WARNING: SPOILERS
I've just amplified the warning a little so no-one can say they weren't warned. :)
|
Re: Star Wars EP3 Discussion WARNING: SPOILERS
so..... I aint seen the film yet but hear that Lucas promised to explain in this one why Liam Neeson had to be burnt on a bonfire rather than his body disappear like Jedi normally do when they die. Did R of The Sith settle this important issue?

Re: Star Wars EP3 Discussion WARNING: SPOILERS
there is a conversation between Yoda and Obi-wan, where Yoda tells Obi that while he is on Tatooine he must do some learning about the dissappearing trick(becoming one with the force) from his old master.
The book actually goes into it a bit further. |
Re: Star Wars EP3 Discussion WARNING: SPOILERS
I really liked the way how R2 Was prtrayed in this film, they seemed to give him back some of the attitude he had in the original films, I think he actually stole the show for the first 20mins :)
|
Re: Star Wars EP3 Discussion WARNING: SPOILERS
I can still remember the frame in the original star wars comic of over 25 years ago showing the scene where obi wan leaves vader by the volcano,Im really glad they kept that part true to original ideas.
Shame the 3rd trilogy has never been mentioned since the start of ep I __________________ Quote:

Re: Star Wars EP3 Discussion WARNING: SPOILERS
Yup, there was talk many many year ago of there being 3 films after the originals (episodes 7 to 9) but Lucas has said he's too old and making a trilogy takes a decade out of his life.

I believe they are making a star wars television series. 100 episodes I think.

QuiGon didnt dissappear because he learnt after dying, he learnt how to cross over. I think Vader did dissappear and all that was burnt was the remains of his Mechanical self |

Re: Star Wars EP3 Discussion WARNING: SPOILERS
Saw this film yesterday, (have not seen any of the others) seems like a great film, and can definately see what all the fuss is about.
Thought the 'birth' of vader would be more dramatic though.... |
Re: Star Wars EP3 Discussion WARNING: SPOILERS
Saw it today and loved it :D
I liked the way that the got rid of all the Jedis (not in a sick, murderous way, of course ;) ) ...and the opening battle scene... |

I was going to take my 8yr old son this morning, but got on a downer when I found out it was a 12a!!!!! I felt so sorry for Connor as he has been looking forward to going for a while!!!!!

Re: Star Wars EP3 Discussion WARNING: SPOILERS
Just got back from seeing it and I am am commenting as a Star Wars novice. This was the first Star Wars film I've ever seen.....And I can safely say it was really good and I picked up the plot very quickly.
Excellent special effects, yet it has this retro style to it too which I guess is to tie in with all the other films. Definately a good film. |
Re: Star Wars EP3 Discussion WARNING: SPOILERS
I thought it was great, can't wait for the 6 episode box set so I can watch them all back to back (geek alert).
As for the last 3 films not being made, there was a rumour that George Lucas' son may make them a few years from now......we will have to wait and see. I hope they do, the story starts to get really interesting after Episode 6 ;) |

Re: Star Wars EP3 Discussion WARNING: SPOILERS
I'm sure I read one story where Luke Skywalker finally turns to the dark side, and the new 'chosen one' turns out to be the son of Leia and Han Solo - cue a final fight scene between them remeniscent of Luke vs Vader.
|
Re: Star Wars EP3 Discussion WARNING: SPOILERS
That's about it.
Luke forms a Jedi academy but eventually gets turned to the Dark Side for a while. Han and Leia have kids (who are Jedi - or will be when they grow up). There's loads more (Wookies used for slave labour etc) but it's been a while since I read the books. |
Re: Star Wars EP3 Discussion WARNING: SPOILERS
Aw man - i saw it tonight and well - i was left feeling dissapointed. I thought it was poor TBH.
The bit with Darth at the end shouting NOOOOO! was so hammy as to spoil the illusion that he's a bad ass mofo. And padme dying because she's lost the will to live - give me a break - shes just had two kids and is convinced that there is still good in him. I dunno - not good. Younglings? Pfff.. |
Re: Star Wars EP3 Discussion WARNING: SPOILERS
I managed to take my 8 yr old, but it was a kind of sad ending and Hayden's acting wasnt much cop, so I left kinda disapointed.
|
Re: Star Wars EP3 Discussion WARNING: SPOILERS
Thought using Padme's death as a reason for Anakin turning to the dark side was contrived. Luke asks Leia about her mother and she says she remembers she was very beautiful but sad. So Padme can't have died in childbirth otherwise Leia would have no recollection of her. I don't think anything will beat the original trilogy but then I'm old enough to remember going to see them at the cinema from 1977 onwards so I'm probably biased - but I don't care! :)
|
Re: Star Wars EP3 Discussion WARNING: SPOILERS
But maybe because Leia has latent Jedi powers, she could remember further back ;)
Oh, and :welcome: by the way |
Re: Star Wars EP3 Discussion WARNING: SPOILERS
When Leia said that, was it before or after she found out that they were related? I can't remember. Maybe Leia meant her adopted mother. :shrug:
|
Re: Star Wars EP3 Discussion WARNING: SPOILERS
What - remember from when she was an embryo! :confused:
This doesn't satisfy me (ooh erh!) And thank you for the welcome ;) __________________ Leia said it during the conversation she had with Luke just before he told her she was his sister and he does specifically ask her about her real mother not adoptive one. (I know too much about these films!) :shocked: |

Re: Star Wars EP3 Discussion WARNING: SPOILERS
You might be right about this being the wrong forum - you all have mucky minds and have misunderstood what I meant.
And she didn't mean her adoptive mun because Luke specifically asked Leia about her real mother!!! Am I remembering a different film to everyone else!!!!! :confused: |
Re: Star Wars EP3 Discussion WARNING: SPOILERS
I think the funniest part in Ep3 was when Palpatine appeared as a hologram Darth Sidius (anyone else notice darth can be swapped with "in" for most of the sith?) and my dad asked me (rather loudly) "isn't that the chancellor?" :rofl:
Ep1-3 has only proved what I thought all along, George Lucas can't direct for toffee, has no idea what his own story is about (remember, ep6 was going to be called REVENGE of the Jedi, when we'd been told several times the Jedi do not seek revenge! Hello George, did you actually read anything that you wrote??) Personally, I'm going to ignore Ep1-3 and pray they don't affect the post RotJ books in any way as the continuity in those is fantastic and even the bad ones are much better written than eps1-3. Maybe we'll get lucky and George will give up the rights so someone better can come along and remake them properly. Anyway, must get back to my book to find out how Luke's son (Ben) grows up :) |

Re: Star Wars EP3 Discussion WARNING: SPOILERS
I think trying to excuse Lucas's clueless attempts at shoehorning in a continuity error as a major plot twist in EP3 is being too kind. Why couldn't Lucas perhaps have Padme becoming frightened of the change in Anakin and his lust for power, and so he wants to learn about the dark side as a way of getting her to love him again. She could go into hidding because of her fear of him, have the twins in secret and Leia could remember her post partum - not through womb memories!

The Timothy Zahn SW books are excellent :) Kevin J Anderson's books... not too bad. Some right stinkers though by other authors...Children of the Jedi, Crystal Star & others Also wasn't too keen on the "New Jedi Order" books...gave up on them after the first few, although perhaps they've improved. |

Re: Star Wars EP3 Discussion WARNING: SPOILERS
saw and film last night and was impressed but then i'm such a fan i'd never really call it a bad film..
still some bad acting and even worse lines they are given.. only Obi-Wan and The emporer can act but then still get bad lines.. though Annakin was turned far too quickly.. firstly he just didn't know which side to fight on and then next thing is a fully fledged Sith Lord and killing everyone.. could have taken longer than that.. ALso after he got in the suit after the fight with Obi-Wan you saw Darth Sidious say he had killed Pdme and you saw his strength increase with his anger.. they could have expanded on this more but the film ended straight away still a few continuity errors but he was the chosen one as he did destroy the Sith in the end. About the boxs and eps 7-9.. when they write books there is a Star Wars almanac that Lucas wrote that says what will happen in the future and these have to be kept in |

Re: Star Wars EP3 Discussion WARNING: SPOILERS
Loved it watched it opening night here in manchester,my son went dressed as vader,I truely feel people who bitch about star wars are guys who forgot what its like to go into a cinema as a kid and just purely enjoy a film,most the guys who seen the original 77 version in the cinema will be pushing 35-40 now and forget they where probably 10 when watching it so it was bound to be better for them.
I had floods of memories from watching epIII from spotting the millennium falcon to the peter cushing look a like,sure when i was 10 i loved this style of film more (who honestly thinks the original cast did a better job of acting ? carrie fisher and mark hamill are both so wooden just check other films theyve made),all in all I think "the force is strong in this one it is" my son loved it the same as I loved the originals when I was taken too 'em as a kid, ;) So stop bitching not even xmas is the same these days as it was in our day my imdb comment here - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0121766/usercomments-1203 |

Re: Star Wars EP3 Discussion WARNING: SPOILERS
Saw it last night. Defn. best of the 3 films. It's how he should have done the other 2 instead of trying to tie in the soft toy and candy consessions. Yes the script did suck (and in some places blow) but by far the best part was the dialogue by Jar Jar Binks.
Have to admit that I left the cinema thinking "it's 11 pm, I can be home by 11:15, log onto work for an hour.... then watch ep 4...5...6... don't _really_ need to be awake at work tomorrow" Fourtunatly common sense prevailed and I went to bed. Instead of killing myself trying to watch the others, Now just need to wait for the extended DVD box set of 1*,2,3 and a whole day spare. p.s. Apparently Lucas is trying to hoover up all those copies of the starwars holiday special off of ebay etc. personally I think that he's going to releas them with the first boxed set to make ep1 look good. * the one with the extra bit where Anakin shivs Jar Jar Binks up as soon as Obi Wans back is turned then offers him some *ahem* 'Calamari' dip sticks.. |

yeah still only seen it the once but at the cinema it was easy enough to spot.its seen docking in a lower level landing port maybe it helped I was sat at the front a little more towards the right.And yeah it does make you wanna see the 4-6 episodes afterwards.only problem for me is it never tied up what happened to the wookies,looked like they got their arses kicked.and even though I doubt its the stuff thats gonna win oscars its still still heaps of fun
