The Battle of Coruscant VS the Battle of Endor will ep3 space battle surpass ep6 space battle?

Will the Ep3 Space battle surpass expectations and be in league with The famous star wars battles from The OT trilogy or will it dissapoint us like TPM did your thoughts?

 

first off, how did TPM dissapoint?

It kicked ass,

and ep III's space battles will be much more grand than endor.

much more

 

first off, how did TPM dissapoint?

TPM definately kicked ass, as I just watched it again today. What I think the guy is referring to is the space battle in TPM. You had about half a dozen Naboo pilots flying around, whining about not being able to penetrate the forcefield of this ONE control ship, then Anakin just blindly goes in (by accident, mind you) and with one shot blows the thing up from the inside, and STILL escapes.

As much as I love SW, that was pretty anti-climactic.

As far as the original poster's question, this battle is supposed to completely dwarf the Battle of Endor. This is supposed to be the biggie of the entire 6 movies.

And judging from the trailer, it looks like they are going to be right.

 

I agree the space battle in TPM was a huge dissapointment. the movie had small clips of a small squadron attacking the trade ship. small battle by comparison. this battle is going to rock! is happening all over the galaxy thousands of systems.

 

I hope so the trailer only gave us a peek i wouldn't count on it until i see more footage hoping the next trailer would shed some light on the space battle.

 

i think that this space battle will kick a$$...go alot longer and be alot bigger...

 

how long do u think the space battle will go for.

 

and ep III's space battles will be much more grand than endor.

That depends on the standards you judge by: In terms of size (i.e. number of ships, size of the largest ships and so on), Endor will easily crush Coruscant; however, since the Endor Battle was rather static, and half of it took place on Endor itself, Coruscant will probably have the better effects (guess why) and the more exciting "battle development".

 

Actually, the Coruscant battle will involve way more ships than were at Endor. Just so ye knoweth...

 

In regards to TPM, I was actually GLAD they didn't make that battle seem very large. If you would have started off Episode I with this huge space battle that was bigger than anything we saw in the OT, it would have been anti-climactic for the OT battles when watching the films in order.

However, for me, it's okay if the ROTS battle surpasses the ROTJ battle, as long as it doesn't surpass it by TOO MUCH. The ROTS battle can be massive, bigger than ROTJ; that would simply show to the audience that sometimes there are small space battles (Naboo vs. TF, Red & Gold Squadrons vs. Death Star) and sometimes they are huge (Republic vs. Separatists, Alliance fleet vs. Imperial fleet). I just don't want the ROTS space battle to dwarf ROTJ so badly that it makes ROTJ feel small, as this is supposed to be a massive trap laid for the Rebellion by Palpatine. So, in closing, yes, I think the ROTS space battle will surpass ROTJ's, but hopefully it won't be by much.

 

The battle over Coruscant will have its own redeeming qualities as does the Battle over Endor. They both have their own places in the saga and I don't think one will really surpass the other. Coruscant's battle will certainly be different because of the advent of poweful CG animations and advances in models. Endor's battle sequence remains a marvel because of its complexity and relative paucity of powerful CG.

Both will maintain their respective place as amazing accomplishments in animation and filmography; I do not think that one will really surpass the other. Both will look great and do justice to their roles in the GFFA.

 

I think the ROTS battle will surpass the ROTJ battle ten-fold. But it's simply a technology thing. Digitally you can put in much, much more ships, explosions etc.. Also you're not bound by the camera because in the digital realm it's all virtual, so you can take every camera standpoint you can imagine.

BUT,

When watching the ROTJ battle you should keep in mind, every second of the way, that these are models!! The're little plastic modelling kits blown up with firecrackers!! And it still looks this good!! For me that kranks the 'cool' factor up by a thousand. The geekness of that battle just goes through the roof.

So,

ROTS battle: relentless space action bashing your optic nerve into a bloody pulp. You will be AWE-STRUCK.

ROTJ battle: Coolness above and beyond. This is only surpassed by Bruce Campbell kicking deadite rear-end, and leaves you giggling like a little schoolgirl for hours, no matter how many times you watch it.

 

I think that the rots space battle will be better than the rotj space battle.

For one i see the sides being moore even so the fight might last longer.

 

....really looking forward to the opening of RotS. What I saw in the trailer was a glimpse of great things to come, IMO.

 

In one word "YES"

 

Nothing can surpass the Battle of Endor. From what we see in the trailer, it seems like the Battle of Coruscant will be a lot messier and more colorful than the Battle of Endor, but definitely nowhere near it in terms of the "cool and awesome" factor.

In fact, there is so much CGI that the battle in ROTS seems a little fake to me, almost like watching a video game. Even the plastic Star Destroyer models used in ROTJ look more realistic than the CGI capital ships we have seen in the trailer.

Sigh... looks like Lucas has really gone overboard in terms of CGI use, to the point where everything begins to look artificial instead.

 

I think the RotS battle will blow the Retrurn of the Jedi battle out of the water. One main reason is the the endor battle concentrated a great deal on the falcon and the starfighters. While thats all well and good. I really wanted to see some of the Mon Cal ships go up against the Star destroyers. It look like were going to see the Republic Venator class destroyers go up against some Trade federation cruisers. The shot of them firing broadsides(nautical term for when to ships go side to side to fight each other) at each looks cool and is something we haven't seen before.

 

YES , I mean the teaser already is stunning espacialyl with the Tie fighters roaring all over the place . Very cool
It prety much knocks all the space battles over. And thats how it should be no holding back .

 

SuperStarDestroyer,

You have to be joking. Yes at the time the battle of endor looked great but now it looks old, just look at how the star destroyer get blown up with no aparant damage shown. Now the ships look damaged and look like they are in a battle.

Its like the Os of star trek they looked good at the time but put them next to the star trek of today and they look like a 4 year old done them on his pc.

 

He's just a grumpy oldbie, nevermind him.

I personally what we saw in the trailer was spectacular. Especially that shot of a Republic Cruiser and a Seperatist ship sailing by eachother, trading shots at like 40 m. Coolness.

 

I never thought the battle of endor was that great to begin with. The original DS battle was way better. So was the Hoth battle.
But, this battle will rock. Just the first few seconds we see rocks hard core.



Clone

 

With ease.

 

te ROTS battle has to surPass the ROTJ battle
ROTS
we have 2 suPerPowers here te trade federation vs te rePublic
ROTJ
in here we have a sinGle suPerPower te emPire VS te rebellion who over here we know & c its ter last hoPe to clinch an other imPortant victorY after ANH a victorY which can is a danGerous card 2 PlaY as teY saY in te rebellion meetinG Point
as 4 tos who mentioned TPM battle its Just te armY of nute GunraY (sorrY cant remember his Planet) vs Naboo so tat had to be a small battle infact even te ANH sPace battle is biGGer 2 tat

 

It would be okay if ROTS surpasses ROTJ. Yes, a trap was laid by the Imperials. The Imperials has a massive fleet lying in anticipation of the Rebel attack. They knew it was coming. The rebels had a big fleet, but nothing compared to the Imperials.

Rebels thought the Imperial fleet was dispersed through the Galaxy, thought the sheild would be down by the time they got there, and that the Death Star was not operational. That's why they didn't have a huge fleet. ROTS has two massive fleets duking it out. You're going to see capital ships firing at each other, which you only glimpsed at in ROTS for a frame when the Redepmtion was firing on a Star Destroyer.

Surpass it ROTS!

EDIT: SuperStarDestroyer: Look, CGI is forever going to be in the movies from now on. There's no turning back. If CGI makes you long for the better days of plastic and glue, then keep on watching the OT. I myself feel there is much you can do with CGI, and I don't feel nor see how it looks like a video game. It still looks more lifelike than the best video game.

 

The Battle Of Naboo was just a small conflict, which was mainly used to highlight Anakin's first heroic deed on a galactic scale.

The Battle Of Geonosis was large, as it was the first battle of the Clone Wars. It should also be noted that it was a land battle in design.

The Battle Of Courscant is the beggining of the end of the Clone Wars. The opposite of Geonosis.

The Battle Of Yavin 4, while not a grand as Courscant, are a bit the same. Namely that it focuses on a few pilots charging towards a target, while begin shot at by other fighters.

The Battle Of Hoth is similar to Geonosis, only a bit smaller.

The Battle Of Endor resembles the Battle Of Naboo, only with a larger space battle.
