Re: Star Wars!
As with the other two new ones, I was disappointed with this one as well. My main problem with the new episodes was with the amount of technological advancements used. I think Lucas went overboard with the graphics in the new ones, opposed to keeping it simple.
I didn't like the amount of animated droids that appeared in the new ones. (Think of the droids in the originals, none were as sophisticated as the ones in the new ones) Also, the cities looked far more sophisticated and advanced in the new episodes, and my final beef is with that rediculous creature Obi Wan rode around during the movie. Other than on Hoth in Episode II, I don't recall too many animals used as transports.
I have many more complaints with the new episodes, but I'll limit myself.

Re: Star Wars!
I kind of think you have to let some things go. I mean its like watching Star Trek Enterprise and thinking wow this stuff took place before the original Star Trek...
As to kind of defend, we really didn't spend much time in 'cities' in the episodes 4-6. I mean we were dealing with more remote places. Tatooine, Hoth, Endor. I mean Cloud City was our fancy place, but we were also told it was small enough for the Empire to not notice (which wasn't true...but still). And we had the sandpeople on creatures, the rebels used creatures on Hoth, and in the third one, only place we were that creatures would have made sense was with Ewoks, who were to simplistic. I know that a big part was Lucas playing with new technology, and showing off, but I think that being able to let yourself not try to critique everything is the key.
Oh and as for the droids, remember in the Star Wars: A New Hope, when they go into the Cantina, they don't want to serve droids or 'their kind'. Maybe you got to think that they kind of neglected or toned down after that point.

Re: Star Wars!
I guess I have been overly critical of these 3 due to how good the first 3 were. I did love the last 1/2 of this recent one when everything got tied in with the original 3.
I was displeased also with some of the characters throughout the new ones. Most of which were the ones created digitally opposed to actual human actors.

Re: Star Wars!
I'd rank my favorites as...
1) Return of the Jedi
2) A New Hope
3) Empire Strikes Back
4) Revenge of the Sith
5) Attack of the Clones
6) Phantom Menace....
With Revenge not far behind Empire....

Re: Star Wars!
It would be impossible for me to rank any of the new 3 above the original. I don't see how any true Star Wars fan could. That's like saying you like digital fighting Yoda over the old, wise puppet Yoda. [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img]
