hmmm.....


The most annoying character for me would probably be Dooku, he's such a dork.

The most annoying scene for me would probly be where boss nass slobbers all over the place.

The most annoying plotline for me would be the virgin birth.

the virgin birth is a religious theme...get over it.

and what's the deal with midichlorians? it doesn't take away anything from the mystery of the force.

the symbians (sp) part is still a mystery .how excatly do they co-inside with the midi's?
see, it's still as mysterious as the force it's self

That whole scene in TPM when ani says goodbye to his mother. It is stretched out and over dramatic.

Uh yeah, I will not just "get over it" with the religous virgin birth ridiculos story line. Lucas puts that in and then tries to scientifically explain the force.. what a mess.

I like Jar-Jar! tongue *prepares for bombardment* hehe...


All of the corny puns at the end of AOTC.
The whole Luke and Leia thing. Blah.

But those are pretty much the only things, and they don't make me love Star Wars any less, I would just take them out if I could. happy Star Wars is still the #1 movie! love

most irritating...

PLOTLINE - anakin's confession and padme brushing it off.

CHARACTER - mace windu. man, will GL ever give him a decent line? and is sam jackson ever gonna snap out of it?

SCENE -

logically: TIE: greedo missing han from a foot away and luke struggling up the side of the sail barge and then he merely 'knocks' the skiff guards down with his lightsaber.

visually: TIE: the awful rancor effect and the way ewan looks during the scene where he's apologizing to liam while jar jar goes to otah gunga.

The only thing that will still bother me, and I mean the only thing (Jar-Jar's over the top but whatever, there are individuals like that out there. It's annoying but whatever), is Anakin's virgin birth if it stands. I get that it's just fantasy and it's just my own religious beliefs balking at that being used in a fictional story, but still, there you have it.

Of course, this isn't including the SEs. If we counted those as real SW films, there'd be a heck of a lot I really disliked. But I don't, so I'm happy happy

JediWithoutaCause: the Ewan thing, you referring to the bad wig? That wig looks completely stupid, but we all have bad hair days, right? I mean, the guy probably hasn't showered in a while anyway... wink

EDIT: Oh wait! I thought of the one single thing in the OT I wanted changed (which wasn't): old lady with chimp eyes Emperor plain Come on, if GL thought all these other changes needed to be made but honestly didn't think that needed to be Ian in there, he really truly has gone off the deep end. And I suspect he has.

PLOTLINE- Dooku was Yoda's padawan?? C'mon.

"I thought I could train him just as well as Yoda...I was wrong"

Judging from the looks of things, apparently Obi Wan followed in Yoda's footsteps.


CHARACTER- Mace Windu. The most wooden character in the saga. Hopefully EP. III brings out something in him.

SCENE- Droid factory in AOTC.

A few people said: "...the virgin birth..."

Virgin birth? I thought the midichlorians were the father.(wink. wink.)

Obviously, George Lucas is basing this virgin birth on the Saoshyants of the Zoroastrian religion. Could it be any more blatant?

Definitely when Padme tells Anakin she loves him just before they are supposed to be executed. It is so bad I just can't watch it. Good thing DVDs have chapters happy

**Bashing bashing bashing, and sape told me there was no bashing in the film forums. OH well.

Midicholorians are there for one reason only, to show that Anakin is special. It would sound really dumb in Obi-Wan said "I sense the highest amount of force in him, even more than Yoda"

There is a spiritual and biological side of the force. Thats the way it is.

-Seldon **

Yea but couldn't Lucas just treat Anakin as yet another being worthy of jedi-training only to reveal to us much later in the prequels that Anakin is more powerful than the Jedi couldve ever imagined?

I think that would've made for a much more compelling story because it wouldve shocked the hell out of Yoda & the boys, not to mention it would make Anakin's journey to the drak side so much more powerful! Can you imagine the cinematic brilliance of a scene where Obi Wan finally realizes that not only is his 'student' now a 'master' but also the strongest jedi ever!?!?! (dont forget he takes out the emperorin RotJ!)

Wow, not to sound cocky or Han Solo-ish but i think i'm pretty bad ass with this post!!! happy
