Star Wars Megathread

[Zoupa]

Highly doubt that. The plot of the prequels was pretty good, it was the dialogue that shit the bed.

The sequels are just all around bad films.

[crazy canuck]

Watched episode one. Really freaking boring. The chase in the forest with a little girl was just ridiculous. I hope it gets better.

I wonder if in 20 years the sequel trilogy will become beloved.

let's not push it.

I liked the episodes too.  Great SW stuff. 
I really like little Leia:
Obi-Wan saying she reminds her of someone, "she was fearless too.  And stubborn.

That part made me really laugh, and remember the Clone Wars series.

Watched both. It's ok. B- maybe. The Inquisitors are caricatures.

Kids are stupid.

Watched the two Kenobi episodes. Really enjoyed it. Seeing McGregor as Obi Wan again put a smile on my face. And I appreciated the prequel trilogy refresher at the start of first episode.

I am enjoying the fact that the prequels are no longer shunned. Although I guess that has been the case for a while, what with the success of the animated series and all.

I wonder if in 20 years the sequel trilogy will become beloved.

The first prequel should still be shunned. I recently watched the first two before watching the Clone Wars and that first one is just terrible. Respectfully, Zoupa is out to lunch if he thinks the first one had a good plot.

Yeah, the plot of the prequels ain't no good at all. Story =/ plot.

The plot of episode one, "kid, I know you are potentially the most powerful Jedi we have ever seen and are probably the chosen one, but we can't save your mother from slavery because that's not what we came here to do. You are just going to have to internalize all that pain.  I am sure everything will be ok."

It stays within the Jedi mind frame of detachment. Plus jedi are dicks.

Something that bugs me: "Ben Kenobi". If he's supposed to be in hiding, using the same surname isn't wise. I know Lucas picked it so Luke could connect the dots, but so could bounty hunters and inquisitors.

Well, it's not much worse than leaving him under the care of Vader's stepbrother, in Vader's native planet...

[Eddie Teach]

But Vader thought the kids were dead, didn't he? The manhunt was for Jedi.

Yeah, but Kenobi is there for the kid. So he's just one Vader nostalgia trip away from being found.

I never understood why they made Anakin a native of Tatooine in the prequels.

Tatooine is apparently everything.
