Happy Star Wars Day
and the 4th is with me...
I see that your Schwartz is as big as mine. Now, let's see how well you...handle it...
a TRAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It is my considered opinion that the first film was cinema greatness and the rest were largely forgettable.
I didn't see you playing with your dolls again
"But my ass! ... Hey, it's a play on words."
(More of a Pi Day fan, but then again I've only seen the first Star Wars movie.)
as in Episode IV?
The first one to come out, where Luke is recruited from his desert farm to save his planet, Obi Wan teaches him about the Force, yadda yadda.
I saw it twice, liked it both times. Not a hater, I was just doing other things when the other 35 or so Star Wars movies came out.
You should not admit this publicly. It can get you killed 'round these parts...
I've also not seen:
- Any Star Trek movies
- Any Star Trek episode prior to the first (Shatner) series
- ET
- Guardians of the Galaxy
- Dune (read and enjoyed the book as a kid, though)
- Any Harry Potter Movie
- Game of Thrones
- Etc.
Come at me bros, sis's, and otherwise-identified.
Now I know for sure...Everyone's Gonna Murder YOU! :-)
you've got to get up to speed man.
ET is the biggest offense there tbh
If you haven't seen Etc., then we can't be friends.
Im right there with you on the rest. +1 for similar viewing habits
Slight nitpick, you havent seen any Star Trek subsequent to the Shatner series
There's only been 8 Star Wars movies, 2 of which have come out in the past 18 months.
double feature day! Got my tickets for my daughter and I! Woo Hoo! I am Groot with the force!!
Enjoy, everyone!
With my son for the first time. Hard to keep track of the proper "order." Prequel, sequel? But not unhappy they're still cranking them out.
GO STAR WARS!
EPIII is one of the best
Plus Machete Order is great!
Pros:
.01% of the Jar Jar Binks
Wipes out mention of Midochlorians
Luke seems closer to the dark side in ROTJ, as you see the similarities between him and Anakins transition that is so fresh in the mind.
Cons:
No Darth Maul :(
You just pissed off the Wookie by misspelling its species. Or genus. Or family. Or order. Christ. I don't know taxonomic ranks, so now I'm pissing off the biologists on the board.
I sense two posters that are about to have their arms torn off.
This was rather embarrassing. I know how to spell Wookiee. I know it has two e's at the end. Dammit to all hell. I just didn't execute.
Except it wasn't. People need to get over "a bigger death star". Why would they not try to build a better death star? It is cohesive to the story in that way. The character stories are entirely different unless you want to nitpick surface level shit (meeting up with han, secret plans in robots, new jedi vs someone new to the darkside) but it is a star wars movie there are certain themes that have to be in EVERY movie.
TFA was a great movie, the star wars fans that whine about it were going to whine about no matter the final product.
I love episode VII even after the 10th time I've seen it, so I disagree.
Have you seen any alternate cuts of the prequels?
Topher Grace made an edit that condensed all three films into an 85 minute film. http://nofilmschool.com/2014/05/topher-grace-star-wars-editor-strikes-b…
I saw something called "The Phantom Edit" that was in the same spirit as Grace's and showed that there was a good story buried in the gratuity and the fluff of Eps I-III.
Shouldn't be very hard, considering they were made over 20 years apart....
As an experienced Star Wars fan this list is totally factual and not debatable.
1. ROTS
2. R1
3. ESB
4. FA
5. ANH
6. AOTC
7. ROTJ
8. TPM
All 8 of them I love, i'm not the type to hate on any of them. They are my top 8 favorite movies.
Also the clone wars animated show is amazing (and on netflix).
Season one of Rebels wasn't geat, but 2-3 was good.
Only a real fan knows the answer.
