george lucas MUST be held accountable.

upon viewing the 'disaster' that was AOTC i feel that the situation with gorgeous georges abilities,or lack of,as a director must be addressed.
pronto.
so,who's with me?
anyone?

 

sorry i feel that it was a great film
It did jump around in place to much and sometimes was corny but it was great!

 

Eh, no. Some silly scene's, some stupid dialogue, its what star wars is about.
But the effects, the little "in-jokes", the DEATH STAR, what more do you want.

 

You'll be telling us Episode 1 was great next.

 

No, EpI was *****. But there were reasons it was set up the way it was. The story had to start somewhere, most people say they would make changes to it, but very few would re-write it. Anakin was too young, going to Tatooine was too easy, finding Anakin, JAR JAR, and the whole Anakin destroying the droid control ship, the whole story is based on luck.

 

AOTC was a cleaver film, still mainly a kid film like we've grown up on but its the start of the story with the dark rising, and mostly feel people are against it cos the OT was the hero story, the young lad told of his destiny and brought down the empire, this one is compleatly opposite to the heros trail, so it wont feel as much like a morden myth

 

the whole story is based on luck

Have you ever seen Star Wars (original), the droids crash land on a desert planet and end up in the hands of the one person that would later save the galaxy.

Just dont talk about luck and the star wars movies it doesnt hold up.

ep2 better then ep1, but ep2 isnt still as good as original 1-3.

 

Yeah that is a major plot hole, Tatooine is on the rim, alderan is an important planet so im guessing in closer to the center, so even if they have just met some spys and got the plans to the Death star, why were they so far out???

 

well the plothole seems like that but Leia is looking for Obi Wan isn't she? I know he was in hiding but she musted of found out where he was!

 

Episode 2 is up there with the OT if not better. It brings a whole new level to the SW universe. It has everything that you could wish for, including a great story.

 

I dont think Leia was looking for Obi-wan, if they haden't been intercepted she would have delivered the plans herself.

 

well i guess then you must consider where they was coming from? you said they was intercepted so was they on the way to alderaan from somewhere further away then tatoine
sorry about my spelling tonight

 

right,concentrate on answering this question and this question only,no tangents please.
why do padme and anakin fall in love?

 

ok that one is a bit foolish, there seems to be no other reason then just in TPM he called her an angel, i do think if he wanted to keep the love in the story he needed to do a better job on it, but he doesnt make it to bad, and it doesnt seem to last to long

and who knows, they may of just got on really well and just felt they was soulmates??!!

 

This may be construed as flaming, but who cares.

screw you jamie69

 

will none of you ever be happy with anything Lucas does besides the OT? Everything anyone complains about is the same as the OT like the bad jokes....live with it

 

ok maybe not screw you - boo you instead

 

you dont need to get like that

 

Why did they fall in love? Why does anyone fall in love?

 

they had to, it was in the script

 

you gotta admit - the script was funny in places...even if it wasn't meant to be!

 

Why does anyone fall in love? Exactly.

Anyhow, who knows how long they were on Naboo for. After all in ESB, it only takes 20 mins for Han/Leia to get to Bespin when in reality the period is more like 2-3 months (whilst Luke is training). Who says that sort of period hasn't elapsed in AotC?

Two people under immense pressure, put in close containment with each other, especially as one is assigned to look after the other. Also despite what Padme said before they went into the arena, a lot of the relationship is one sided... Anakin. The obsessive part of his character coming out and may be a factor in EP3...

 

Well, I think ALL the SW films are terrific entertainment. They are designed to be action/adventure films with the emphasis on the action and not on the dialogue. The plotlines are thin with loads of holes, but who cares? Not me.. I just sit back and enjoy the trip for 2 hours.

I must admit, though, that the 2 films directed by Kershner and Marquand repectively are better dramatically than all of George's efforts. Obviously those two directors knew how to get more from their actors than George.

Just my opinion..

 

why do padme and anakin fall in love?

What the feck sort of question is that? I didn't like Titanic that much but I don't base my indifference to it on the fact that Jack and Rose fell in love. Jamie69, if you can't come up with a better argument than that then I'm afraid you don't have a point.

 

AOTC is the film TPM should have been. Fact.
