[POLL] - Did you like the latest 2 Star Wars Movies?

The first two were bad enough that I got up and left halfway into the movie, and I was watching it at my own home.

That si supposedly all answered i nthe 3rd movie. He was supposed to be stiff like that. There's a huge write up in the latest Premiere magazine that talks a lot about that. he knew he was going to get ripped on for his acting but he played it how he was supposed to.

Oh, well he did a good job then.

All the Star Wars movies had cheesy lines and bad acting. The latest movies, however, failed at delivering any humor and the actors seem to have no chemistry with each other.

The Phantom Menace has one redeeming quality: it has the best light saber duels of any Star Wars movies. Darth Maul was pretty awesome but could use a lot more lines and a bit of back story.

AOTC is the worst Star Wars movie IMO. The plot was incoherent and the script for the romance scenes were just atrocious. Unlike others, I did not like how they portrayed Yoda going from wobbling old man with a cane to badass saber wielding warrior.

Despite all of the above, I did find both movies enjoyable enough to watch in theaters and plan to own all the movies on DVDs.

on another topic, as I was watching the dvd's my dad came in and was shocked to see christopher lee... (count dooku) and told me that he and peter cushing (grand moff tarkin from ANH) were two british actors who acted together frequently in British Horror flicks.. pretty cool how they added lee into the movie.... another thing is albeit cushing died in '94, christopher lee was 80 years old when he filmed AOTC... ridiculous! i would have thought he was in his late 50's/early 60's!

am i the only person who wonders if Lucas could have come up with a better name thank Dooku? every time i hear that, I think of dog sh!t or something...
