AOTCGI is indeed one big heaping pile of digital crapola.

But sometimes i'm in da mood for digital crapola.

Then watch Transformers.

It has a better plot, better effects, and better acting.

Curious, awf the 3 Transformers pieces of doody, which do you prefer.

Good question. The first is the best movie. It's not a great movie, but it does work. The 2-3 suck. But the 3rd has some of the coolest action scenes I've ever seen.

Hrm. Hmm.

Probably the first. I'll never watch 2 again, and the 3rd I just hit skip through most of the movie.

Still haven't seen the third.

3

3 barely nudges past 1 for the insane action.

Indeed. All terrible. But sometimes terrible, is great. Especially with a heavy absinthe drunkness.

I'll be da first knucklehead to admit that I was blown away by Meg and yellow camaro when the first came out.

Re: Star Wars: Episode VII (2015) Discussion Thread

So, we had the OT. Then came the PT. Have we figured out what to call the new ones? Is it ST for sequel trilogy?

And the Expanded Film Universe will be eFU.

With the amount of training time Hamill and Fisher may need to be able to play sword welding Jedi Knights i'd expect them to be announced early next year. If you remember it took McGregor and Christensen 6 months training (3 months basic training, 3 months to rehearse their duel) and they're much younger.

I disagree, with all the overuse of CGI, just look at Lee/Dooku for example.

Re: Star Wars: Episode VII (2015) Discussion Thread

consider Dooku... there were a few moments where it was painfully apparent it was no Mr. Lee doing the fighting...

I hope its the guy from RLM.

Mike and Jay could rock it.

I own Attack of the Clones on blu-ray, but not Abrams' Star Trek.

Bad Star Wars > Good Star Trek.

ugh

Then watch Transformers.

Sad but true.

Re: Star Wars: Episode VII (2015) Discussion Thread

Jedi Leia is an EU idea. There are no guarantees they'll follow that in the ST. I hope they don't. PT suffered from too many Jedi.

Mark Hamill on the other hand will probably have his head cut and pasted on a stuntman for all the intense stuff.

Re: Star Wars: Episode VII (2015) Discussion Thread

Leia was apparently force sensitive (or it was at least implied) in the films though.

Not exactly the same as being handy with a lightsaber - sure, but one could surmise that in the years following ROTJ she at least dabbled in some training.
