I'm gonna do my best to avoid spoilers for this.
Most difficult part will be stopping myself from clicking on the stories.

I saw the trailer today for star wars at the movies. Have to admit, as an almost 40 year-old, I teared up a little.

Nothing wrong in admitting that.

I cried and had a boner when i first saw the trailer.

I'm still trying to stay away from anything that will spoil the movie for me...but I just can't help but click on this thread.
Damn my curiosity!

It's great that they've gone "pre-digital" in regards to a lot of special effects. Especially in regards to non-human characters. The CGI overdose in Eps I - III was one of the biggest let downs.

The worst for mine are the cringe worthy scenes in Attack of the Clones where Obi Wan interacts with the fat alien in the diner and and the long-necked clone manufacturers. The interactions and dialogue are so far off.

I like to pretend eps I,II and III don't exist.......... f**king woeful. Just because you can use $383838492929229 worth of CGI doesn't mean you have to........ And agreed on the dialogue.

I thought episode II and III had their characters set up reasonably well and a decent enough plot. In fact all the ingredients were there to pull it off.

But as mentioned horrible scripts, horrible overuse of CGI, no acting.
Lucas gets most of the blame and it's probably fair enough.

Bad scripts. Horrible direction. Boring editing. Poor acting. Overuse of CGI.
It's all on Lucas.

He's still one of my heroes though. Love you George!

Eww, I can't stand that scene. Completely unnecessary.

How about when the Jedi are just swinging their lightsabres around when fighting the droids. They look ridiculous.

Lucas became such a lazy director.

it's something I have never ever done before as i believe you should just be grateful for what is given to you, but last night i told the missus that all i want for christmas this year is gold class for episode VII

no 3D shit, just the basic film in 2D.

she accepted, and i calmly took my knife away from her throat

Lazy is exactly how to describe it.

All he ever did was focus on creating worlds, ships and odd looking aliens
Totally forgot about the most important part, the human element.

The easiest test is...

Describe Han: rebellious, roguish, charming, sense of heroism underneath exterior, anti-hero, world weary
Describe Luke: heroic, impulsive, ambitious, uncomplicated

Describe Qui Gon Jinn: ...........
Describe Padme: .........
Describe Anakin: ....... angry! about... something... ?

Come to think of it, I don't remember a *single* line from Episode I apart from "THIS is pod racing!!".

Um, "Sebulba always wins?"

Terrible script.
