Films

[worm]

I finally watched all 3 Star Wars films last night, with Rabid, at Worm's.

Have no clue what they are all about though........

[worm]

That's a shame I was considering going to see it as the book is fantastic

I thought there were six Star Wars films?

[modey]

Lalalala no there aren't lalalalala!!!

[dakyras]

Ewan McGregor was the only saving grace of 1-3. Shame Hayden Christensen was 1,000,000 times shitter than Ewan was good.

[dakyras]

My vodka induced commentary probably didn't help.

We play the Goonies drinking game: drink everytime someone screams, or laughs, or says "booby trap" or mentions "one eyed willy".

Hammerred before halfway.

You should play the Star Wars drinking game. There's one for each episode. Episode 1 goes like this:

I got halfway through episode 2, then all hell broke loose.

But they're not the abysmal insult to cinema some make them out to be.

[Langdale Wolf]

I wouldn't say they're an insult to cinema, just anyone who loved the originals.

The Star Wars prequels are the most mercilessly panned films in cinema history, mainly because it upset nerds across the globe for not being exactly what they wanted. And boy are they hard to please.

In reality, they are 3 'okay' films. They look good, have some pretty piss poor acting and an average plot.

I like them, because they've got light sabers, Yoda, and Samuel L Jackson as a Jedi.

But they're not the abysmal insult to cinema some make them out to be. But try telling that to them without them coming across like that bloke from the youtube clip who hates Modern Warfare 2......

[ampersand]

I thought they were awful. And Ewan McGregor can't act.

[Lithium05]

I'd say they were poor compared to the originals. No more than that. They're ridiculously over-criticised.

I think it was down to the fact that the originals were just more fun and simple tales of adventure, which were paced well and felt like they naturally unfolded cohesively over the three chapters, with likable characters and superb villains. The prequels were the exact opposite in every way. That's as simple as I can put it.

I can watch the new films, some ideas they have are actually brilliant, which only dissapoints me when I can't feel any empathy or emotion towards the souless creations on the screen acting it all out. The original puppet Yoda by Frank Oz is still stunning to watch, can't say the same for the new CGI version.

I'll try a Star Wars drinking game. Every time your childhood gets raped take a drink. You'll be smashed before Jar Jar shows up.

Lets try a Star Wars drinking game; every time your childhood gets raped take a drink. Considerring Jar Jar shows up pretty early, I won't last long.

I often wonder if I was a child now, what I'd think about the new ones. I'm judging them by adult eyes. I guess you'd have to find an adult who hadn't seen Star Wars IV - VI to make a judgement.

Katster? She's not seen the Godfather. Maybe she's not seen Star Wars IV - VI either?
