REDEMPTION!: Lucas admits that EP1 had silly characters and it didn't live up to expectations...

At least that's what one of his "associates" is claiming. I only have read the first few paragraphs so far. I knew it. I KNEW jar jar was a little POS filthy bastard and lucas had screwed up. If this source is accurate he agrees with that commonly held position.
 
Call me a skeptic, but from what I've seen he's just gone from one stupid idea to another. Instead of his cute little Disney characters, now he's made a romance movie.
 
Thank God he admitted it! TPM is only good for showing off a home theater system (probably in my top 5 show off discs).
I am going into AOTC with low expectations in the hopes that that will make me enjoy it somewhat
 
I think jar jar needs to die a slow painful death

Be careful what you wish for. 😉

Umm . . . how else are Luke and Leia gonna get born? Is Darth Vader going to be a deadbeat dad?

Amidala: You knocked me up, Helmet-head!
Anakin: May the Force be with you, because I won't! I'm going to the planet of Deadbeat Dads.
Amidala: Oh, that's just great! Just so you know - when we arrived on this planet - I WAS FAKING IT!
 


<< Jar Jar and the Ewoks were the best things to ever happen to Star Wars. >>


the ewoks and jar jar were completely different
 
BTW, I still think Captain Panaka is one of the most hilarious movie characters in history. I can't help but crack up whenever he is on screen...watch carefully and you'll realize everything he says is WRONG!!! It's bloody hilarious, I gut myself every time.

Well, it's probably just me. 😱

oh and his name is funny too..."panaka" BAHAHAHA geez lucas you aren't very creative with the names eh? And where the hell did "Count Dooku" come from?

I realize there has to be some, but the first trailer had the whole 'picnic in fields of flowing grass' stereotypical crap. Unless I'm totally off base here, Lucas is no genius in directing romance movies.
 


<< Well, it's probably just me. 😱 >>

Nope. The scene where he introduces R2D2 to his queen after R2 saves the ship makes me vomit.
 
Here's a few choice Panaka quotes!

"Once we're inside, we shouldn't have too much trouble"...yeah right...

"Most likely they were wiped out" ...no they weren't...

"I do not agree with the Jedi on this one..." ...WTF? you don't disagree with a Jedi, idiot!

Or how about the no nonsense way he blows out that window. It's like "F*ck this! BLAMBLAMBLAMBLAM!!!!"

and his terrible, terrible closing line.. "i think you can kiss your trade franchise goodbye!"

every time I watched that movie, I laughed my ass off. he's such an idiot...did Lucas do this purposely? why would the queen want such a dimwit as her head guard?

oh and here's another one, my fav...

"your highness, I do not think this a battle that we can win."

... thanks Panaka for the positive reinforcement and by the way, once again you're totally wrong about everything!!! bahahaha!!

It was lame, but you can see in the background that the 2 Jedi think the same thing. Qui Gon kinda rolls his eyes at Obi Wan.



Of course that could have just been the 2 actors personal feelings on the scene.

Who is Captain Panaka?

When will Lucas admit that most of his characters are based on stereotypes of races? For example those dudes at the beginning that the Jedi meet with are obviously ASIAN and Jar Jar is obviously a black slave.

Ya know what's funny is that people cheered when they first saw r2d2 and when it and c3p0 first met they cheered even louder. I need to go to a theater in the ghetto I guess to get away from all the nerds ruining my movie experience. 😉

C3P0 is obviously a homosexual. His best friend is an oversized dildo as well. Hmmm? Coincidence? I think not.
 


<< Jar Jar is obviously a black slave. >>



How the hell did you get that idea? He's neither black, nor a slave. He lives in a free society of wierd fish creature things....

Simple minds are easily amused. Ever see a toddler playing with a dinky car for an hour straight or an infant child become totally intoxicated by the circular movements of a mobile?

People assume that because of the way he talks I guess.

Someone needs to pull out the good old, "You know what they say when you assume" quote.
