Sillyness, werd

It has just finished and I have yet to start it. Someday, I guess… :)

But when I will, I think I’ll start with episode IV. What do you think?

I’m interested to see what people who grew up with the original trilogy think of episode 3. Since all i know are the prequels I don’t really have much emotional attachment to Star Wars at all (or anything to be mad about them being sub par). Looking forward to your review… and Shuttle in the long-term.

At this very moment my wife and I along with a handful of friends are watching the scrolling text of a Star Wars opening.

As in TRULY this very moment? I must ask you: how? Moblogging from the theatre? (Shame on you!)

On topic: It was a great movie. Hollywood at it’s best. Sort of nice to get Star Wars out of your system.

Star Wars … I don’t even know what that is. xD Neh, I’m just kidding. Star Wars isn’t as good as Star Trek, though. o_o

Well I suppose I will chime in on this. I really did enjoy the film. I absolutely loved the transition of the movie from the silly R2-D2 moments to the ever so dark turn the film took when Anakin turned to the Dark Side. It was awesome. I personally think Hayden did a great job showing the turmoil Anakin was going through inside. I just wish there had been more interaction with the wookies, but that was made up for in my eyes with the amount of action from our “little green friend” Yoda. When he walked into the emperor’s chamber and force pushed those two Royal Guards, I laughed my ass off. It did have its cheese moments as well though. But I will not be shadowed by the dark side and speak of those. Good day.

I recommend starting with Episode IV only because there are a few surprises in IV, V and VI which would have no punch after watching I, II and III.

Chris: I hope you enjoy III as much as I did.

Thats quite unusal. Not to many people take the time to blog while watching a movie :p

*Waves hand* you want to go home and rethink your life.

Ah much to learn you have. I scheduled the post. And yeah I think it great to get it out of our systems.

I think for the most part we feel a little let down. I am not sure why I feel that way really, I can’t pin any one thing down… just the magic isn’t there you know?

I agree with Colin, but for different reasons. IV - VI are where its at honestly. The magic is there. Start with IV and then once you have seen them all watch them in order. But experience the magic the way we all have first.

I hope I did as well! I thoroughly enjoyed the movie, although my favorite part had to be the fight between Darth Vader and Obi Wan, specifically the incredible performance McGregor put in at then after he had “dealt” with Vader.

One of my favorite moments was when they step onto the blockade runner from A New Hope.

I didn’t… this time. Soon though… very soon.

I agree start with IV. Starting with one and watching it chronologically would be like re-editing Back to the Future and watching it chronologically, no punch at all.

They renumbered those Narnia books so they’d be chronological but I see with the new movie they are starting with the original first book (lion/witch/wardrobe) and not the re-numbered one…
