Why I Didn't Like Star Wars III

**40sondacurb** · 05-27-2005, 11:54 PM

1. bad acting
Yoda, Obi Won, and Samuel Jackson (Mace Windu) were the only good actors.

2. Sith were not evil enough
The emporer came off as a punk a lot of the time, and skywalker hamed up almost every sceen.

3. the noooooooooooooooooooooo at the end
Very cheesy

4. "Your breaking my heart anikin"
another very bad line

5. Cewbaca
Completely unnecessary

6. Extreamly simplistic, repetative, and annoying dialog.

People keep saying it was good but I think deep down we all know that if this wasn't the last one we would all be calling it as crap as the other two.

look on the bright side, the real last one is Return of the Jedi

You're right on some of em.
The # 4 almost made me puke at the movies, You're breaking my heart Anakin, oh get over it.

In the begining of the movie it was soooo lame and boring. The emperor tells Annie to kill Dooku, so he does. How stupid can you be?

Way too much politics.

The Noooooo was also very lame.

But when Ki-Adi-Mundi and Plo Koon were killed, I almost cried.

Oh, and the Chewbacca was totally useless, as was the droid humor. I thought that the "funny" droids ruined the show. R2 is s'posed to be funny, not any other droid.

**40sondacurb** · 05-28-2005, 03:56 PM

good point. I don't think the sequals should have been made, it hurt his work (Lukus') to go back wards. He should never have made the movies unless they were perfect or something close to it. Reading article about hopw he was rushed and went through writers block, it makes me think that maybe he wasn't ready to make these movies yet.

**Spatcher** · 05-29-2005, 08:57 PM

Terribely. The prequels stunk!

Entertainment Weekly had a mini-article on it, and I will try to post it in the morning ( I need to find where I put it).

**Spatcher** · 05-30-2005, 07:39 AM

OK here is the mini-article.

1. How does Ep 3's Ewan Mcgergor (Obi-Wan) morph into Ep 4's Sir Alec Guiness (old Obi-Wan or Ben) in just 19 years?Is it Tatoine's desert climate, the 2 suns, Bad skin care?

2. It takes 19 years to buile the first Death Star but just four years to make the second one fully operational. Did the yuse a better contractor, or did they already know where everything went?

3. Are there no books to help Padmé better utilize her free time? why all the staring into space and brushing her hair?

4. Why doesn't Obi-Wan recognize R2-D2in A New Hope (Ep. 4)? And later in the trilogy R2 seems to have lost the ability to catch things and leap friskily out of spaceships. Droid arthritis?

5. Why'd it take Chancellor Palpatine like 26 separate shout-outs to tell the storm troopers to kill the Jedi?Couldn't Mister All-Powerful just set up a conference call?

6. In a world of Qui-Gons Obi-Wans and Anakins, where'd Padmé come up with...Luke? Genreal Hospital?

It was good enough to fill in some blanks. Of course alot of the scenes were pridictable.

ICFire · 05-31-2005, 10:33 AM

I thought it was ok.

I was very disappointed in the acting abilities of the guy playing Anakin and I thought Samuel Jackson did nothing but read his dialogue in this one and I'm a big fan of his.

Overall though I can recommend it.

elf · 05-31-2005, 10:45 AM

I thought it was good up until darth vader screamed no and that single handidly ruined the entire movie for me.

**40sondacurb** · 05-31-2005, 10:54 AM

they should have killed the anikin guy in the begining and let James Earl Jones take over, now he could act.

**Spatcher** · 06-01-2005, 12:27 PM

James Earl Jones? He wasn't in the movie. It was Samuel L. Jackson, and no Mace Windu (Jackson) would not go bad. He had less faith in Anakin than Yoda did, and believed firmly in the Senate and the Jedi Code.

And elf I agree, the "no" was just horribly bad.

James Earl Jones was the voice of Darth Vader.

It's not your fault, I guess your too young to know about James Earl Jones

**Spatcher** · 06-01-2005, 06:11 PM

No I'm not...how tall are you s'posed to be?

**40sondacurb** · 06-01-2005, 06:43 PM

if your not then name one other James Earl Jones movie besides Star Wars.

**ReeKorl** · 06-02-2005, 01:44 AM

Should be easy - he's been in about 125 other films

Let's get you started... he was the narrator in Judge Dredd.

crazijoe · 06-02-2005, 05:21 AM

The best is the voice of CNN.

**40sondacurb** · 06-02-2005, 10:35 AM

Cnn's noit a movie.

The Great White Hope

I know it's not a movie. But he still has the best narrative voice, next to Vincent Price.
