Star Wars

[Reply #640 on:]

Speaking of which, I do enjoy the mans Obi-Wan. I think he tried he best to carry those films .

[Reply #641 on:]

They should have made Liam Neeson come back to play Dookus role*, not have a magic clown car of Pop-up Sith out of nowhere for each film.

George Lucas is a doofus tbh.

* Of course this would mean Qui Gon kills Maul and all that "Master you should listen to the council" crap that went nowhere in Ep 1 actually mean something as he turns to the darkside then tries to turn Obi Wan in Ep 2.

[Reply #642 on:]

Yeah, Darth Maul was lame.

[Reply #643 on:]

Darth Maul was one of the biggest let-downs of the prequel trilogy. But let's not forget that Anakin Skywalker was the real disappointment. Not one moment of awesome in over six hours of footage.

Palpatine was what kept me watching. Moar Emporer Plz!

"Are you an angel?"

I watched a documentry about these star wars movies just yesterday.
It was weird watching Kurt Russell audition for the Role of Han Solo... and it was even more strange listening to carrie fisher talk about how worried about her wait she was, particularly when she had to fit into that bikini..

Watching footage with out the sound effects and music was odd. But it doesn't take from the awesomeness of the three originals..

Empire Of Dreams?  I almost prefere watching that to the movies now.

But do you like sand?

Same here. IMO he's really the one that made Ep.III.

Ep III is my favorite... a lot of it was because of Palpatine. You get to really see his manipulative side in it. Quite a bastard.

Well, It kind of got silly towards the end when Ian regressed into 'cackling Villain sterotype #3567' in an attempt to channel his earlier performance as Emperor Palpatine.

But yeah, Palpatine was still pretty much bad ass. Shame everything was too easy for him.

That's what makes him badass. The fact that he orchestrated everthing that happened from before TPM and knew how everyone would react to everything he did.

[Reply #650 on:]

I meant it was kind of lame how easily those 'Jedi Masters' died and how Anakin simply just shrugged and joined the Dark Side. No goddamn effort was made to show how powerful he was because the opposing force was full of wussies.

Relevent to the prequels.

[Reply #652 on:]

Relevent to the prequels.

That's a funny clip. I also find the way Anakin turned to the dark-side to be rather weak, so he killed Mace Windu, but he was practicing his jedi teachings to protect and bring Palpatine to justice alive, after killing Windu he just gives in and gives himself to the dark-side fully, but why not have Anakin get angry and turn on Palpatine and have a duel with him or something in that manner, instead of cutting it short. Or maybe Palpatine, Windu, and Skywalker got into a 3 way duel, with Anakin struggling to choose sides while fighting on and off with both opponents, then afterwards he would side with Palpatine and take on Windu in an epic lightsabre battle which would end up with Windu defeated. Just a quick thought.

I like it, lets get this shit re-written in time for Lucas's funeral and save up for the remake.

I'm not much of a writer, maybe you could take this idea and make it work, it's all yours.

*imagines a Star Wars with stripper space pirates...*

Nah, better give it to someone who won't make it too silly.

[Reply #656 on:]

Speaking of silly, I can't find that Stormtrooper on a space hopper t-shirt anywhere . Also, Reborn Palpatine looks hilariously like David Bowie.

Star Wars Disco Remix-off!

Japan

America

Go!

[Reply #658 on:]

Yikes, there is no doubt about the winner there!

I'd say it was a tie. It's been really long since I saw Star Wars, except for that horrible christmas special I had running in the background while doing stuff.

[Reply #659 on:]

lol, Oirish leprachauns and Frenchy Aayla Secura in this weeks Clone Wars.

Great CGI and some good space action though.

[Reply #660 on:]

I've been watching FishyJoe's Star Wars 3d cartoon lately... it's pretty good.

TIEs allways win

[Reply #663 on:]

Unless when it comes to shields or having hyperdrives .

[Reply #664 on:]

Or life support.

TIE/Ds have both. 

[Reply #665 on:]

I prefer the King Hell God Emperor Starfighter of DeathMissile Boat.

[Reply #666 on:]

Yeah, but TIE Defenders were the case of the space barn door after the space horse bolted.

Hmmm, It'll be 2010 next year and still no sign of the remade X-Wing series. Guess the old LA is well and truly gone. It will be missed .

Is funny because to me it looks yesterday when XWA was launched and its 10 years now... 10 fracking years.. thats 1/3 of my life gone..

And it looked to me like an eternity the 2 years that passed between TIE Fighter and X-Wing vs TIE Fighter (TIE-> 1995 , XvsT->1997) and also it was quite much time ftom XvsT and Ballance of Power to XWA and that was 2 years only..and from then to now.

I think the future passes for modding other engines, like many Freespace mods , Beyond the Red line... the B5 one.. i think there is even one for star was but half made

Some dude totally rips the entire Jedi Prince series...

Here is the trailer. CGI AT-AT!

Sounds like Dustin Hoffman.

EDIT: Quit around part 2. Yeah, it sucks dude.

I like the hooker in the basement.

The "describe this character" segment was particularly damning.

[Reply #675 on:]

The EU had to prop the cardboard of Qui-Gon up as those interviews showed he might as well have been beardy Jedi dude :/.

[Reply #676 on:]

That same guy is doing Episode II review, here's a trailer, lols:

[Reply #677 on:]

His review of Star Trek Generations was pretty funny too, but Episode I's was better.

[Reply #678 on:]

Hey, what happened to that proper live Star Wars TV series? I've heard jack squat about it.

[Reply #679 on:]

It's happening. Just not very quickly. It's supposed to start filming this year, but it was supposed to start filming in 2007 too...
