The new Star Wars reminds me of the new Gulf Wars..


The originals kicked much more ass and the successors are just a lame attempt to
cash in one a familiar name without any real reason

The whole lava duel between Anakin and Obi-Wan is real, it's the way the story has been told, and that's basically why Darth Vader requires a life support system and is so mangled, (aside from what joining the Dark Side did).

So I'm inclinded to say it's all 100% true, the Lava will be there, for sure, the hoverboards however, are questionable.

Yep.
Since the late 70's Lucas has said that Vadar wears that suit becasue he fell into lava while dueling Obi Wan.

No matter how much Star Wars fans say the first two episodes sucked, they will still line up for 3 weeks in order to be the 43rd person in America to get into a theater to watch the third one.

Being a casual fan of Star Wars myself (I like the first 2 better than the shoddy original trilogy, and yes, I've got my flame suit on, but it's my opinion), I do think the surfboard thing on lava sounds completely stupid.

It's now become an issue of me hoping the movie is good for all your uber-fans out there, not so much as for myself, as I don't want to hear the bellyaching.

Holy cow! I've never heard anybody say that before. Do you have any specific reasons for liking the prequels more? I'm curious to see how that curious thing you call a mind works. 😉 😉

special effects and action sequences totally blow the original trilogy out of the water, for obvious reasons. it's like watching a John Wayne Western and then comparing the action to Saving Private Ryan. However, when they open their mouths, all hell breaks loose 😛 plus, carrie fisher in jabba slave suit > *.

I'll admit, the acting leaves a bit to be desired in the first two episodes, and they aren't my favorite movies of all time. Just because I say I like the first two better doesn't mean I really really like them. It's just that I've seen the original trilogy, and I just don't see what the big deal is. Now, I realize I'm sorta young (23), and I may just not "get it", so we can leave it at that. Guess I'm a product of the new age of movies with special effects and such 🙂.

BUT, with that said, it still does interest me what the third one will turn out like, so that's why I visit threads like this one.
 
The fight betwene Obi and Maul?!?!? that only lasted a few minutes!

I heard that Anni doesn't turn completely into Vader until the last 10 minutes of the movie.
 
Seeing as how bad the first two sucked, I can't say I'm surprised. George Lucas, you should be ashamed of yourself.
