It's a, ahem, love story. Remember how ROTJ introduced Ewoks and stuff so that kids would watch the movie? Wait. You probably weren't old enough. Damn my damnable age! Anyway, George Lucas isn't above selling his soul to increase the audience, and I'm afraid that "Teh I LOVESZ YOU PPPRRRINCESSE NATLIIE PORTTMANN" episode does exactly that. But, on the bright side, maybe there will be pie at the movie theater. Mmmm, Natalie Portman...

Yeah, so the love story thang is kinda lame. However, it's looking like a decent star wars movie though, from what I've seen...

True enough. Even worst Star Wars movie > Best Meg Ryan movie

I'm fairly certain that Episode 1 will remain the worst Star Wars movie ever.

Shafty

Nah, I'm still partial to ROTJ as the worst evar. Only thing I disliked about One was Jar-Jar's not getting cut in half like Darth Maul. Oh, and teh half-hour long pod race that had little to do with teh movie. Why couldn't Jar Jar have also raced in the pod and died in a fiery explosion?

1. Ewoks
2. Teh Annoying "Yub Yub" song at teh end
3. Cheesy "Leia is your sister" plot cheesiness--which averted cool Han vs. Luke fight that was building since A New Hope.
4. Ewoks with rocks overcoming Stormtroopers with teh guns and AT-ATs.
5. Unbelievable plot thingys: Leia gets shot, but in the arm?
6. R2D2 can always be rebuilt to look shiny!
7. All teh bad guys were in teh same place at teh same time, when teh Death Star blew up.
8. Annoying guy who rode with Lando in the Falcon
9. Vader dies
10. Rebels can easily defeat armed and trained Imperial forces, but surrender when surrounded by Ewoks with cheap-looking spears.

Episode one.

1. Jar jar.
2. Kid Anakin was a TERRIBLE actor.
3. Lack of Space battles.
4. Metachlorians? The force comes from your cells? BAH!
5. Those android soldiers - not near as cool as storm troopers.
6. That underwater scene where one fish gets eaten by another, and the same thing happens again after that...
7. Darth Maul - he was a nice bad guy. BAD GUYS AREN'T NICE!
8. Pod Race. Too long, seemed like a time killer or something.
9. How Anakin destroyed the entire Trade Fed fleet by goofing around.
10. The final fight scene, those weird walls of light that kept ObiWan from helping that guy...
11. The cheesy ending with the ball of light (symbolizing peace and vaginas)...or something.

I HAVE ELEVEN I ARE BETTAR!

I HAVE ELEVEN I ARE BETTAR! No, you have TEN. #7 doesn't count because YER DUMB, Darth Maul was not nice. Darth Maul was bad mofo. Oh, and #11 why ROTJ sucks is "Yoda dies." So I have 11, you have 10, time's up on entries, I win, YER DUMB!!

Foo, Darth Maul wasn't bad. Vader showed his bad guy-ness by killing his own soldiers for not doing right thingys.

Maul just, um, followed and killed Qui-gon. He's kinda bad, but not Vader bad. You know, the kind of bad that makes you go, "Woo, he's baaad."

Shafty
03-11-2002, 09:12 AM
Only because Maul didn't have a chance to kill his own soldiers. He was a solo operative, not in command of other soldiers because the whole point was to avoid having news of the Sith get out. So you can't compare Maul to Vader on those grounds. Only grounds to compare? Fighting ability.

Darth Maul was a hell of a lot better fighter than Vader. Vader was strong, but slow and clumsy. In TESB, he did more damage to the room with his lightsaber than he did to Luke. Vader was way cool, but Maul was bad mofo.

Naw, Maul just looked better because George has more money now to hire fight coreographers (speelled it wrong).

HAHAHAHA

Though, if they wanted Maul to appear bad, he could have gone to the town thingy and MAULED a few people with this dual-deathsaber! HAHAHAHAHAA PUN HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

I agree only to disagree. At least agree on this: Empire Strikes Back was the best movie. Don't disagree, or YER DUMB!

Rawrb
03-11-2002, 09:19 AM
Yes, it was indeed the best one. With the first one in second place.

One thing that held it was was Luke and his whiney acting. WAH WAH, I'm young, WAH WAH!

Shafty
03-11-2002, 09:23 AM
Truer words ne'er spoken. My roommates and I (after years of discussion) ranked the movies thusly:

1. TEH EMPIRE STRIKES YER ASS BACK MOFO.
2. STAR WARS
3. TEH PHANTOM MENACE? WHAT DOES THIS MEAN? IS THAT SUPPOSED TO BE A THREAT?
4. RETURN OF THE EWOKS

Our favorite Luke whine? *adopts whiniest voice EVAR* "But I was going to Tashi station to pick up some power converters....."

Who could read through this and not quote Clerks? Seriously.

Randal: "You know what I just watched?"
Dante: "Me pulling a can of some moron's fist?"
Randal: "Return of the Jedi. What did you like better, Jedi or The Empire Strikes Back?"
Dante: "Empire."
Randal: "Blastfamy."
Dante: "Empire had the better ending. I mean, Luke gets his hand cut off, finds out Vader's his father, Han gets frozen and taken away by Boba Fett. It ends on such a down note. I mean, that's what life is, a series of down endings. All Jedi had was a bunch of fucking muppets."

Then Lucas allowed them to make that dumbass "Teh Ewok Movie." AAARRRGGGHHH DIE FOR YOU AER DUMB AND HAEV SHAMED YERSELF!!1

First of all, the Ewoks were cool. Because of them, we got these memorable moments.

1. They talked cool.
2. They had a kickass hideout in trees.
3. C3PO threatens them to let them go by saying, "Leh tora toya...... BOOOOOOOM!!!!"
4. That one dude singing while placing wood in preperation to cook Luke and Han.
5. That one Ewok gets stomped by a Scout Walker.
6. Another one gets killed by an explosion from a blaster. HAHA!!! You stupid Ewok!!! They killed yer FRIEND, now yer SAD!!! HAHAHAHAH!!!!
7. C3PO telling them the story, complete with Darth Vader breathing and light saber/blaster sound effects.


Empire Strikes Back was always my least favorite of them all. Only redeeming quality: the whole AT-AT scene.

1. The long, dull, Degobah scene. Less talk, more action and stuff.
2. The lamest rejection line ever: "Stop that! My hands are dirty!!!"
3. Leah "happens" to hear Luke calling her name telepathically... and they catch him right before he falls.
4. The long, drawn out Degobah scene again.
5. Yoda was annoying in this episode. He was cool in Return of the Jedi. HMMMMMMMMM?????
6. Just GO INTO HYPERSPACE, ALREADY!!! Everytime I watched that episode, I just wished they could make the jump to hyperspace so that all the crap in between could be avoided.
7. The Degobah scene YET AGAIN. Luke, yer dumb!!! You can't pull the Xwing out of the mud!!!


Other ROTJ Great Moments:

1. The part where Darth Vader Taunts Luke with that "A twin sist-eeeh.... yes, you have a twin sist-eeeh..... if you don't join the darkside, then perhaps she will." *Luke proceeds to whoop ass on Darth Vader*
2. The part where The Emporer shocks the crap out of Luke, and you can see the electricity on his teeth.
3. Then Darth Vader throws the Emporer down the react core one handed.
4. You finally get to see the Death Star dish out some whoop-ass with it's lazer of death.
5. The whole speeder bike scene.
6. Jabba the Hut.
7. The Sarlack's belching after consuming Bobba-Fett.



And don't even begin to try to tell me that Darth Maul was a better villain than Darth Vader. Trying to honestly argue that is pointless.

Don't get me started on my loathing of Episode 1. Obviously, I would choose ROTJ over Episode 1.

Homer (while walking out of the theater): Wow... who woulda thought that Darth Vader could have been Luke Skywalker's father."

Croud who overhears him: BOO!!!!!!!!!!! *throws stuff at Homer*

When I was little, my favorite was always A New Hope. When the special edition came out, I went to see all three and my favorite became ROTJ. Why? Cause when the Rancor gets whacked that big fat guy starts crying and I laughed untill the end of the movie. But, Empire is up there too. I really enjoy all of them, no one is complete without the other. Episode One, to me, was decent, but too much of an introduction to characters to have a full impact. I also thought that the Pod race was too long, and the lack of a star fight sucked.

Best Star Wars Battles:

Hoth
2nd Death Star

I would have to agree and say ROTJ was way better than Episode I. Darth Maul should have had more of a part. He had like a whole 15 mins and said maybe 3 lines, but he could fuck shit up. He sure wasn't as evil as Vader but he could whoop ass. He was silent and deadly, just like those farts. JarJar was not needed, neither was the pod race (hence, stupid franchise of pod race video games).

Anakin was a TERRIBLE actor. Couldn't they find a better kid to read off a script? And the whole mitachlorian thing was lame too, that pretty much debunks all of Obi-wan's explanations of the Force in A New Hope.

The fact that Episode II is a love story may suck a little, but its crucial to the whole Star Wars story. If teh ANAKIN and teh HOTS WOOMAAN NATALIE TEH PORTMANS! (with boobies!!) didnt HUMP!...there would be no Luke or Leia. I'd become EVAL CYBORG GUY WITH BLACK CAPE if I could hump NATALIE PORTMANSSS!!1

Don't you love it in A New Hope when the stormtrooper bangs his head, and Luke jumps out of the X-wing and runs to Leia and says "Carrie!"?

Of course, Carrie Fisher was probably so wasted ("Mustained," heh) that she forgot who she was supposed to be playing anyway.

Another reason ROTJ is good! Leia was very BONAR QUALITAY when she was in the dancer suit for Jabba. Hurray for cold metal things touching her boobays! Imagine the THO on that one...
