I imagine we are similar ages-no director could have taken us back to the magic of being 5 and seeing star wars for the first time.
I'd be interested to what five year olds thought about the Phantom Menace-my guess is, they loved it.
Plus, Palpatine ROCKED.
but i STILL watch star wars! Regularly! My love for the originals has grown, not diminished, as i have elderlied.
The others are terrible films. Kids films don't have to be terrible. And if any 5-year olds could unravel that plot then they should be at cambridge already.
Why do i feel like Tim out of Spaced all of a sudden?

For all the death star-sized expectations that were shattered. We can never forgive George Lucas for that.
It was pretty good. The third was by far the best, when almost every charcter gets killed off.
...and all the little Jedi children.
I CANNOT BELIEVE there is any debate to be had here.
The case for the prosecution:
The most tedious 'plot' ever
Jar jar fucking binks
CGI Is Not a Substitute for Creativity, Characters, Plot, Suspense or Dialogue
The thousands of dejected star wars fans streaming wordlessly otut of cinemas after this pile of shit finally ended
The fact that bullfrog-necked george 'i can still direct' lucas still made money
That bullshit explanation about the force
non-jokes
princess whateverthafuck's wired-shut jaw and insane outfits

Prosecution rests. Your witness, someone.
You obviously know nothing about star wars. Since you know nothing on which you are talking about, your "fact" will become void.
Sir, you have slapped me across the face with yoru leather gloves and I accept. I was watching star wars before you were born. The recent trilogy is a travesty. A TRAVESTY. To tack those hours of pointless, merit-free shite onto a trilogy that probably had more effect on me growing up than any other film or films I can think of, made me very angry and very sad. Anyone who thinks these films deserve a place in the star wars canon needs their head examined.
I guess I need to have my head examined. But let me ask you this:
Why did aniken turn to the dark side. Think about it deeply. If you do not know the true answer, then I will be disappointed.
I think it helps to understand the prequels as like the younger brother who had expectations that were way to high because of his kickass older brother and therefore developed personality problems that ended up ruining him on the inside so eventually he let everyone and himself down.
I think viewed in that light, they can be alright.

Never watched it. But I disagree because I like disagreeing.
