Star Wars

[SaveMeJeebus]

love these films. Wasn't too fond of episode 3 though.

Anyone here own Dvd's

I love the star wars films. You lot?

[Gurman169]

I love them 2 yea i have them all best movies ever

[SaveMeJeebus]

Yeah. Smokey?

[Pazuzu]

I love star wars too :D I also read the books! Of the 6 films episode 5 is my favourite, but of those books, episode 3 is my favourite, it seems better written.

[SaveMeJeebus]

Oh I never read them. :(

[Pazuzu]

You should! I've also read lots of the expanded universe ones. If anyone's interested, I recommend any of the ones by Timothy Zahn. They're very good. The first one he wrote is Heir to the Empire.

[SaveMeJeebus]

Cool. Thanks. :wink:

[Pazuzu]

You're welcome, have a nice day!!!

[SaveMeJeebus]

Hah

[decamper]

like them all except 1&2 they where to childish.. fu***** Jarjar...

[Pazuzu]

like them all except 1&2 they where to childish.. fu***** Jarjar... Yeah, Star Wars does not need any characters to laugh at, it's not meant to be funny, as that's what JarJar was there for. Grrr!!! lol But other than that, Star Wars ROCKS!!!

[sheepy]

JarJar - what was Lucas thinking of :shock:

[Relic]

The books are great, may I however suggest the Han Solo books. Awesome stuff you wont be disappointed.

I've got them and read them! Have you read the Thrawn trilogy (Heir to the Empire, Dark Force Rising and The Last Command) by Timothy Zahn? Those are my favourite ones! And Timothy Zahn's other books as well - The Hand of Thrawn duology (Spectre of the Past and Vision of the Future) Survivor's Quest and Outbound Flight
What other Star Wars books have you read Relic?

Can't find the other two though :(

[Gazereths]

the thrawn trilogy books are brilliant!!! Ive not read the other thrawn books tho...i'll have to get 'em. I liked the original films but he new ones are pretty lame...Have any of you read the X-wing series? Ive got em all but havent even got through the first one yet...Dont know if thats cause they're rubbish or wether it's just cuase i aint got into 'em yet?


I know this is of topic but the greatest sci-fi books ive ever read are the 'Dune' books by Brian Herbert....WOW these books are something special...you should all read em of yu get the chance!!!...I'll try to get something sorted for you lot!!

[Pazuzu]

I haven't read the X-Wing series... I'll have to get that!!! I have just over 1 and a half shelves of Star Wars books lmao! I've read just over half of them I think! lol I've read 24 out of the 45 I have lol I've just started another!

[SaveMeJeebus]

Cool. I've read one.

[Gazereths]

Which one was that? was it good?

[Maidenar]

Lucas: These are MY movies. And I WILL spent another 20 years on them, if I have to....
They WILL like Jar-Jar this time. They WILL!!!!!!!

:D :P :D

[wwwwNAMEwwww]

episode 3 gets alot of crap but it was better than 1 or 2

[Pazuzu]

I met someone who could win at Star Wars Trivial pursuit against me!!! (There were some really obscure questions, which he got right!) It was my cousin's boyfriend, he's really cool. Just wanted to say that!

[gort]

I saw the first Star Wars movie with my wife ( at the time ) at the San Diego premiere...the line was sooooooo long....it took 3 hours to get in. Remember, this was before people were all fans of it. It was an awesome experience....we went back the next night!! One of my fave things is that I have a program that was handed out only at the first night premiere...probably not worth much, but it's cool....pictures from the movie, cast info...that sorta stuff. My favorite was Empire...the rest after that didn't get it for me...( ewoks...hah..henson puppets )...but the first two were awesome!!!

[frys_red_jacket]

ive only ever seen the phantom menace, it bored me to tears and i had a numb butt by the end of it (i saw it at the cinema), i loved jar jar binx though he was the only good thing about it though

[gort]

Boy, are YOU gonna get crap for THAT statement!!

Just remember to fight back and keep liking what you like Red!!

[Pazuzu]

Yep, each to his own. I would say that the Phantom Menace was easily the worst of the films. I would say that Jar-Jar adds too much comedy to it for me, but then I like sci-fi fantasy type stuff

[gort]

Close second to Jedi......didn't like the Jim Henson style puppet lookin' Ewok dealios....I'll stick with 1 and 2



Which I guess means 4 and 5.

[Frenzy5iron]

empire is the best. I didn't care for episode 1, 2.

[gort]

That's my pick, also.

[1B-DI]

I like Star Wars. My personal favorite is probably The Empire Strikes Back.

When my sister got married, she and her husband went to see Revenge of the Sith as their "honeymoon," LOL. They eventually did take an actual trip, to San Diego, a year later.

[gort]

Nerd alert!!! LOL

[1B-DI]

Yeah, he is. She went along to make him happy. She did enjoy the movie, however.

I saw Revenge of the Sith twice while I was in India, LOL. *boop boop* NERD ALERT *boop boop*

[gort]

Dubbed in that language?


( I just now saw Billy West doing an impersonation of Get Smarts' Don Adams!! )

[1B-DI]

Nope, it was in English. Saw Kingdom of Heaven over there, too.

(Where did you see that, YouTube?)

[gort]

No....on a tv-land 'popular tv quotes' special......it's on in the background....

Kingdom was okay except for that midget lead actor dude....

[1B-DI]

Yeah, it was okay, but I think Orlando Bloom is the worst actor in existence.

*turning on TV Land* Please, tell me they'll show him again!!

[gort]

Yea, but chicks dig him.....isn't there a time difference for us? The show is called 'Great Quotes'....they play it lots....

[1B-DI]

I'm pretty sure we're in the same time zone....I don't know....I'm in Pacific, you?

[gort]

Ok.....it's 10:50 right now.......

I should know this...

A. I'm smart

B. Lived on Whidbey island for 3 years

C. There is no 'C'

[1B-DI]

Yep. Same time zone.

[gort]

I see........good to know!

[frys_red_jacket]

Boy, are YOU gonna get crap for THAT statement!!

Just remember to fight back and keep liking what you like Red!!

gulp!! im ready and waiting for any crap :lol: , im sure ill stand my ground

[gort]

I didn't mind Jar-Jar too much.......just didn't like the movie....
The racial implications evoked by Jar-Jar were crummy, but he was kinda cute...

[1B-DI]

:roll:

To each his own...

[Pazuzu]

Yeah, he is. She went along to make him happy. She did enjoy the movie, however.

I saw Revenge of the Sith twice while I was in India, LOL. *boop boop* NERD ALERT *boop boop*
Yay another Star Wars nerd :P lol

[1B-DI]

Yups. I like Star Trek too.

:lol:

[gort]

And probably 'Buffy'...........LOL

[1B-DI]

Nope, that's my sister's territory. I can't stand Buffy.

[gort]

Thank God for people with taste...

[Benoit]

I love the Star Wars movie. favorite in order:

Revenge Of The Sith
Empire Strikes Back
A New Hope
Return Of The Jedi
Attack Of The Clones
Phantom Menace

[Dark Jedi]

Revenge Of The Sith would be my favourite as there is lots of Clone Troopers in it, lol.

[JetGirl]

[Dark Jedi]

[KingZoidberg]

[Dark Jedi]

This is so cool

[FryRulz]

I though revenge of the sith as pretty awesome

[Dark Jedi]

This is so cool

Haha Cloverfield but its Star Wars.

[Sander.]

Why don't you put you in the cute thread as well as your AT-AT?.

Hmmm.. Smooth operator..

[Spideristic]

Haha Cloverfield but its Star Wars.
Exactly :)

[Dark Jedi]

Hmmm.. Smooth operator..

Yep, just like Lando lol

[Sander.]

It was a bit sarcastic but ah well. ;)

[Dark Jedi]

I know

[Gitchulon]

Love Star Wars.

Empire is the best film ever imo.

I even liked the new ones. Phantom Menace was a bit rubbish but still had the spirit of trhe originals. I don't know why people didn't like attack of the clones or revenge of the sith, I thought they were great (apart from Hayden Christianson's wooden acting, I just don't like him).

[Sander.]

They should make a Shadows of the Empire film. Hmm that would be hard without the original cast.

[Dark Jedi]

Seriously when Lucus does stuff in EU space he just messes it up.
