Not to go off on a rant here (Score 2, Interesting)

God, the PM just sucked hard..Jar Jar, mitocholirians, little orphan Annie (Anakins nic was truly low), the pod race (oh cool to look at and yet stupid at the same time), Amadela's little pedograst issues, Jar Jar, wait the bad voiced aliens, issues of taxation of the Trade federation, long drawn out, tell me not show me, anybody can find themselves in a space fighter that happens to fly into the mother ship were it just so happens to shoot in the the one vunerable spot causing it to explode, and did I mention that Darth made C3PO, because no loose end will remain untied. And yet the end fight with Maul was ok, mind you I cared about the characters not a smidge but it was still neat. AOTC, started off just as bad, looking like everyone trapped in cg nightmare, but final battle with Jedi & stormtroopers vs robots not bad, even a little unexpected. And while I thought it was overdone, my five year old self always wanted to see Yoda kick a little ass, so I enjoyed that despite myself. The funny thing is you watch the Clone wars on cartoon network and you see the amazing story potential being pissed away. And just the vague notion that Han Solo, intergalatic smuggler wouldn't take the oppurtunity to kill or be killed just strikes me as silly. Some say that the OT was just a kids film, yes, seeing a whole planet destroyed happens every other week on the Teletubbies, just like slicing open a Tomtom, or even the torture of Han on cloud city. And how many times have your favorite kids films touch on the ritual sexim/sacrifice of Jabba the Hutt. Some think this began with Ep I, but actually the truth is much worse. For instance, the Millium Falcon, never escaped the second Death Star, wait test audiences thought that too much a downer. And originally, endor was going to be a planet of Wookie slaves. Imagine how cool that would have been. Chewie torn between his duty to the republic/Han and his desire to free his people. Wookie slaves worked to death under the cold Imperial Hand. Forget the fact that who in their right minds would say lets build our hidden base on a world of pissed off furry giants. I'd have gotten passed that. But no, Lucas thought how about something for the kids. Short wookies, ewoks. Think of what might have been, hell we must keep Peter Jackson alive to reshoot in twenty years so take better care of yourself Mr. Jackson. Well I'm done now, thank you for reading my humble opinion.
