(OT) Hmmm Star Wars II Seen it I have! Continued

[King_Stannis]

Am I the only one that sensed a look of fear/anticipation on Dooku's face when he heard the foot steps then saw Yoda walking into the room?

It was like Dooku wanted to face Yada because he wanted to believe he could best him but was still unsure of himself. It was great.

good point. i sensed that too.

the one part i thought was cool, too, was when obi-wan told anakin in the troop transport "i can't take dooku alone. i need you!". i thought that was odd at the time, considering all along i thought anakin or obi wan was going to end up handling dooku with ease. it was not until after the movie was over that i realized the gravity of obi-wan's words.

I figured Dooku would survive. It would have been too much like EP1 if another Sith Apprentice was killed.

Also I think Anakin will kill Dooku in EP3. It will probably be a shocking death for Dooku cause I bet Palpatine tells Anakin "kill Dooku and take your place at my side" in a virtual copy of the ROTJ scene with Luke.

Never gonna see that again. The visual effects were fantastic but take away the CGI and what do u have?

A B-movie...

this argument always bring a chuckle to me.

take away the zingers in "airplane", and what do you have? a boring movie about an airplane crashing.

take away the romance in "gone with the wind" and what do you have? a boring movie about the civil war?

i would submit that in a movie like star wars, the CGI is an integral part of the film. if it had been around in 1977, you better believe lucas would have used it to the max. and yes, you are correct - it is a "B" movie at heart. and so were the originals, IMHO. that's part of there charm. they're "B" movies on steroids!

Take away Jokers screen name and what do you get? A nameless troll.

Third time is a charm...

I have seen this film three times in the theater now. It is quickly becoming my favorite of the movies... Not quite above ESB yet, but getting there.

Re: Third time is a charm...

Going to see it in digital this weekend. I saw it last night and the sound wasnt quite right. In fact when Fett was dropping those charges into the asteroid field the sound was actually cutting out completely for a split second when the explosion first happened.

Ep.. 2

ROCK!!!!

Take away the CGI and you don't have a B-movie. You have a movie with an awsome story line a moderate script.......and.....






Natalie Portman. Honestly. I don't know about you but my P just went.. huh?!?

Movie was superb. I am currently debating whether ESB or AotC was better. Right now I'm leaning on AotC. Why? See above statement. Costuming wasn't as blatant in EP1 and CGI took second place to story line. Yes I loved the story line. Not the surface story line, but the underlining story line. There is a lot more depth to the entire movie. I had to leave parts of myself in the theatre to take the whole movie with me (figuratively speaking).

I give it a 95 out of 97.

Umm... I'm pretty sure that was supposed to happen. It happened at the viewing I went to, also.

i'm with ya.....i've seen it twice now, and for me it is approaching RotJ as my personal favorite.

So, does anyone agree that Palpy is the best character in Star Wars Saga?
