I dont recommend the Christmas Special during social getherings. After intitial laughter and joy, people may become disoriented and then go home...

Jefferson Starship has a music video in it.

6. the empire strikes back
5. return of the jedi
4. a new hope
3. revenge of the sith
2. attack of the clones
1. the phantom menace

there's a really good reason that empire and jedi are sooooo much better than the others... g-luc didn't direct them.

. . . was Lucas directing and scripting it, IMHO. He created a wonderful world with several really good characters. He just couldn't get them to dialogue effectively or emote.

Forget Christensen for a minute. A cast featuring good actors like Neeson, Jackson, McDiarmid, McGregor, Smits, Portman, et al. should have been given better words to speak and more freedom to act them out.

I love all of the prequels for different reasons, but the drawbacks are hard to ignore.

You know what pisses me off the most? I like many of you owned almost all of the action figures at one point or another. But like dumbasses, me and my brother would put those poor little guys through hell, ripping there heads off and limbs off and whatnot. And if only I would have had the foresight to leave those things in the package, put them in a safe somewhere and voila 20 years later I would have been rich beyond my wildest dreams.

I still have all of Star Wars toys, and they're in good shape too.

hopefully, you have learned your lesson and are even now collecting sponge bob square pants memorabilia.

I should do that. In the meantime, I wonder what my "Gigli" action figures are worth?

Are we all in agreement that every bit of new footage added to the original trilogy sucks big time. All of it. The worst is the end of "Jedi" where they not only butcher the Ewok celebration song (the only redeeming thing they did) they show Hayden standing next to Yoda and Obi-Wan in Luke's vision. WTF!!!

And Han DID shoot first. So what!

I never bought the Mace, Dooku, or Sidious lightsabers. I broke my Luke Skywalker saber with my cousin who, naturally had the Darth Vader saber. That's the only childhood piece I dont have anymore.

totally. a big part of the reason i like the orginals and not the new is they had limitations of illusion they were working under, and it makes the movies more amazing to see these imaginative things brought to life. the new ones are just actors in front of a blue screen.

there is such a thing as too much CGI.

seeing the CGI invading the originals kind of ruined them a little.

I was even bothered by the little changes Lucas made. Every movie now has some jackass alien in the background falling or running into something and shrieking.

Leave well enough alone George. If you want to revisit your movies go back and give I-III a plot. Or better acting. Or give us 20 additional minutes of Darth Maul kicking ass.
