Disney Star Wars

[RTBoss]

I agree. I actually liked the prequels a lot. They weren't the original trilogy, but they weren't supposed to be. People need to stop clinging to the OT and embrace something new.

I mean seriously, the prequels had Qui Gon, Darth Maul, Count Duku, the Clone Battles on Geonosis, Jango Fett, Natalie Portman... the list goes on. :angel:

I'm not the biggest prequels fan, not the worst critic, but there was much to criticize. The worst frickin' dialogue "My heart...is burning blah blah Padme, end my suffering!" "I hate sand, it gets everywhere!" "If Master Obi-Wan knew I was doing this, he'd be vewy vewy grumpy!" The jumping hippo-turds in the grasslands - hell, the whole romantic aspect of AOTC was vomit-inducingly bad. Midichlorians - why do we have to "explain" the Force with science? Jar Jar, nuff said. The CGI everything was terrible. The Geonosians sucked. Artoo can suddenly fly, WTF. The battle droids sucked and were cheesy as hell.

Yeah sure, they had some stupidity, but so do all Star Wars (especially the later ones *cough cough*)

As for Jar Jar Binks, I hgated him too, till I saw this:

That would be AWESOME!!

George needed screenwriters to clean up his crappy scripts, and people who weren't yes men to tell him when his ideas sucked ass. I bet his script for episode 7 was full of little kids and terrible dialogue. It all probably happened on Tatooine, too.

I don't wanna go into that. From what I deduce, George Lucas was under incredible pressure from the Star Wars fanboys and made some changes to his stories to appease them. THAT is why they sucked (you know, kind of like how the new Star Wars movies suck because they are STILL catering to the fan base)

I liked ROTS, mostly. Killing the padawans in the Jedi temple? Brutal. Palpatine killing the Jedi and then Windu, awesome. Anakin falling for his save Padme shit, though, not quite sure about that. Padme running while bursting pregnant, terrible. Him suddenly force choking her b/c the Dark Side apparently made Anakin go full retard. Obi-Wan sees two children born, yet in Empire has no idea about Leia - I mean, come ON WTF!?

Maul - cool. Dooku? Hated him. Best thing was him losing his head. Grevious? Meh. I mean, a droid with no force ability wielding multiple light sabers?

The pod race in TPM was good, too. Anyway, I could go on and on about the prequels. While I "like" them, these new movies are going to wash the bad taste outta my mouth.

Hated Duku??? Bb-but Christopher Lee! And the curved lightsaber handle!!

I guess obi wan not knowing about Leah in empire was definitely stupid.

Greivous? Yeah, he was dumb (too childish). Also I agree with you that Anakin going full retard was dumb (in fact, I felt like the whole sequence of him turning to the dark side felt rushed and ill-conceived, But I made peace with it a while ago although, at the time I first saw Ep. 3 I was SO mad about it lol).

I too have hope for the new movies, but so far, not gonna lie, the prequels were just better to me. :/

I like Dooku's curved saber. I also love Christopher Lee... But the character felt hollow. It was almost like Lucas had something else planned, then he trashed the idea, and Dooku was the backup plan. I dunno. I, like you, have made peace (mostly) with the stuff that bothers me in the prequels... Except for Jar Jar saying, "How rude!" All I can think of is that little shit Michelle from Full House any time I hear that phrase, lol.
