favorite star wars movie

[Link369]

The rebels should just send Ewoks into battle, they cuddle enemies into submission and defeat at-sts with sticks and stones. I can't wait for attacktix of these little guys. ;D

Here are mine.....

TPM- Love Qui-Gon....
RTOJ- Good Closer
AOC- Finally Got to see Yoda with Lightsaber
ROTS- Finally got to see Yoda VS. Darth Sidious and Anakin VS Obi Wan
ANH-ESB Loved them both the same...

Those are my thoughts

Roobione out

I voted Rots, but I'm not really sure. They are all Star Wars, ya know?

[Spirit X]

Wow, you guys do make a very convincing argument and reading this thread has really reminded my just how cool ESB is BUT....

....for me I think that the final reel of ROTJ (the last 25 min) is just the most entertaining sequence I've ever seen, although the opening reel of ROTS came pretty close, I really wish we got to see a little more of the battle of Coruscant.

I gotta go with Episode 1 just because of Maul's double blade.

Rots I like Grievous, I only wished they had shown more of kashyyk.

[bobafett]

i agree link, they didn't spend enough time on any one battle. kashyyk and the wookies would have made the movie even better. as far as my favorites i love all the originals, i remember seeing a "making of" and the miniatures and detail was so painstakingly done that computerization just seems like a quick easy way out. and you never really thought about the special effects because everything worked so well together. my fav is empire strikes back because they knew what worked and got more into the technical side of ships and walkers and really stretched the limits of what they could make believable. they just don't make sci-fi's as good as that anymore. and for cool factor nobody beats boba fett, he's quiet and only talks when it's most important, in two movies he only says one line "what if he doesn't survive, he's no good to me dead." he say's before han solo gets lowered into the carbon freeze chamber.

[Link369]

I heard him say quit a few lines as a kid. Showing Boba like that really killed hi's cool factor for me, and hi's scream before he fell in the sarlacc pit.

[bobafett]

watch those movies again he first shows up in empire strikes back, but never talks till the carbon freeze scene. later he is seen as jabba's personal bounty hunter and never says a word till he falls into the sarlac pit, but later there's a comic that shows he only stayed on the edge of the pit unconsious.

[Link369]

I heard he fell into the pit but jetpacked out of there.

In one of the books, Tales from Jabba's Palace I believe, we do have the story of how Boba Fett actually escaped from the sarlaac.

Does anyone else have the OT on DVD? If so, did it freak anyone else out to hear Boba Fett's voice changed?? (They had Jango Fett redo Boba Fett's lines) It's horendous!! "What if he dies? He's worth a lot to me" was one the best lines ever! I loved Boba Fett as a kid! The guy playing Jango Fett says it like he couldn't be more bored.

There are other things in the DVD's that really bug me, but I'll stop with that one for now.

Many things disturbed me about the new DVD's...

Like, how come the Force screwed over Obi-Wan and Yoda? For those who don't know, at the end of Return of the Jedi while Luke looks on the spirits of Obi-Wan, Yoda, and his pop, the old man who played him prior was replaced by Hayden. How come Yoda and Obi get to remain their crusty old selves and Heyden gets to revert to his younger self?

And now Greedo and Han shoot much closer together, though Greedo still gets the first (lousily aimed) shot. What does that change tell me, other than Lucas can't follow through on complaints completely and instead just goes halfway?

If I was "fixing" the films, I would've fixed the shorting out Lightsabres in Episode IV and had the Stormtrooper who bumps his head on the doorway yell out a big ol' Homer Simpson "D'OH!".

I...umm...what's the ordinal number for 144,824,713?...that sentiment.

Because the chosen ones, Yoda and Obi-Wan weren't? Because Lucas wanted to tie the new into the old, the sense of it be d**ned? Because Hayden is just so dang foxy that we've gotta see him at every opportunity? Because the old man was disappointed with the way his ghost looked? The galaxy may never know...

Because that would mean that George would be admitting he was wrong with the first change. And good grief, does Han's "head fake" still look horrible.

Y'know, for the longest time, I thought that Ben's lightsaber shorting was actually a combat technique. But why stop there? Let's overdub all of Alec Guinness's lines with Ewan McGregor's voice. Or even better, take Alec Guinness out of the whole old trilogy and replace him with Ewan! And let's take out all of that garish, clunky Yoda puppetry and replace it with a CG Yoda that actually does flips around Luke during his training. Oh, and if the Stormtroopers are all supposed to be clones, let's overdub all of their lines with Jango's voice.

Oh, and let's change all of the rank insignia in ROTJ to make them meaningful. Oh heck, let's just insert Hayden in the Vader's last scene of ROTJ, just to make the continuity flawless. Hey, could we get baby pictures of Hayden and replace Jake Lloyd with those, too? Wait, this is starting to look crazy...
