Earthquake

Do you mean the Earthquake made in 1974 starring Charlton Heston Earthquake? Great film.

Re: Star Wars

Given that *everybody* accepts that the last 2 films (last five if you agree with me) were fckin' SCRUFF, why would anybody think this was gonna be any good? (I know this is pointless to point out to the fanboy base. BTW, 1/5 stars from the guardian today).

Re: Star Wars

It doesn't need to be any good. It just needs to close off something most of us have been waiting a real long time for.

(ps - does anyone actually take any of Peter Bradshaw's reviews seriously? I honestly thought they were someone just having a laugh)

So, you don't need it to be good, you just need it to be over?

People let so much slide with these films because they want them to be good and I can understand that. I would like them to be good too. They certainly always had the potential to be good, but there was always one big beardy obstacle to that. Lucas himself.

He can't write dialogue, he can't write plot (certainly not plot that ties the trilogies together) but what he can do is surround himself with enough talented designers etc to make it look like anything good is all his doing!

That beardy bastard!!!

Yes, that's almost exactly what I said. If it's good on top of that, well.. bonus.

Re: Star Wars

Anakin Skywalker gets corrupted by Senator Palpatine and turns to the dark side of the force, killing Jedis as he goes. Skywalker turns into Darth Vader, Palpatine turns out to be the Sith Master Darth Sidious, and before he goes bad Skywalker gets Amidala up the duff. The end.

Me! I think he's hilarious when he puts the boot in. Especially when he does a review via the medium of rhyme...

Re: Star Wars

I found this pretty funny...

Re: Star Wars

I thought of a great headline for any journalists covering the release of the new Star Wars movie;

The Sith Hits The Fans!

Agreed. Hayden Christiansen = worst actor ever.

Does anyone else think Yoda is a pain in the hole? Why does Lucas try and make us take him seriously when he has the voice of Fozzie Bear?

Wacka wacka wacka...

haha! in fairness, it's for 6-11 year olds to take him seriously, as most of us obviously did at the time.
love his syntax i do.

Re: Star Wars

I don't think Christensen is a bad actor, I think the dialogue is bad and Lucas is pretty shite at directing actors now. he's probably off eating stars wars memorabilia while he should be giving direction to ol' Hayden. seriously, I found there were some moments in clones where Christensen was quite good.
