[QUOTE="Vocenoctum, post: 1938696, member: 2477"] I liked the 4,5,6 trilogy greatly, and liked the Zhan novel trilogy. I didn't even notice they were making more SW novels until suddenly they had 400 of them. I read the Boba Fett trilogy of novels, and they were beyond horrible, so I never bothered with more. Ep 1 & 2 have been fine. I don't think Portman was that bad in Ep1, but in Ep2, she was very wooden and vacant. Ep 1 she was either the controlled demeanor of the Queen, or the somewhat submissive maid act. Ep2, she was just Portman standing around trying to appear in character. What bugs me about 1 & 2 is the reliance on CGI... and it's horrible CGI! Compare to Lord of the Rings, Jar-Jar vs Gollum. The AT-AT's in Empire were one of my fondest childhood memories, but if they were done in Ep1 & 2's style, I'd probably not even notice them. The alien races are horrible looking, and I specifically detest alien languages based around accents. Why is Anakin wasting his time building a translator droid if everyone speaks the same language? KotOR1 is great, and captures some of the adventure of the original series, though the cortosis weave weapons are a little out of place, I understand why they exist. KotOR2 is not as good, but still has a good feeling of adventure IMO. Ep 1 & 2 just don't capture that adventure, nothing happens based on main characters skills to me. Jango Fett was horrible. Boba Fett's main contribution may have been to fall into a big pit, but he still ranks higher than Jango! [/QUOTE]
