----------------------------------- Notoroge Thu May 19, 2005 7:16 am Star Wars: Episode III ----------------------------------- Teehee, I got a field trip with my compsci class today to go watch the first (well, technically second) screening of the movie. :lol: Happy times. Heard it's going to be good. Anyone got any comments about it? Did you dress up as a wookie and go to the midnight screening? Got photos? ;) Star Wars mania! ----------------------------------- Amailer Thu May 19, 2005 10:44 am ----------------------------------- strange, its already out in BT :P (but with the timestamp on top but still its good!) anyhow, YES. ----------------------------------- Notoroge Thu May 19, 2005 2:59 pm ----------------------------------- Just came back. :shock: You must go watch it. It's a "sick" movie. :P Seriously, I & II have nothing on this, especially I. And the fact that the story in this third one must tie in with "A New Hope", means Lucas has less room to screw up, no? Honestly though, the best Star Wars yet; aside from V. ;) My only pet peave was the wookie / tarzan thing [trying to be vague so as to not spoil it], and when Anakin finds out Padme died. Other than that, all good. :) ----------------------------------- Neo Thu May 19, 2005 3:54 pm ----------------------------------- strange, its already out in BT :P (but with the timestamp on top but still its good!) anyhow, YES. How is the quality? ----------------------------------- shorthair Thu May 19, 2005 4:19 pm ----------------------------------- Decent For a Cam ( impretty sure it is) And it sNot Telesynced, the audio Goes off by about a 1 lip movement every now and then, But For Some Reason it hs the Movie 2 times , but the 2nd time cuts off half way thorough. Say a 12:00 AM Showing HEre In London , it s a great flick ----------------------------------- Asok Thu May 19, 2005 8:24 pm ----------------------------------- I saw a midnight screening of it last night IT OWNED gonna see it again! :borg: ----------------------------------- Amailer Thu May 19, 2005 9:55 pm ----------------------------------- [url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/entertainment/4563631.stm]Its already leaked on the internet It comes with a timestamp, but its suppose to be good quality (not excellent though). **EDIT** Already posted about it (hehe forgot) anyhow. Quality... I would post pictures.... (that people posted) but i got in enough touble with d/ling (dan knows XD) so bah.... damm the BSA! ----------------------------------- Notoroge Fri May 20, 2005 7:39 am ----------------------------------- Hehe, I just noticed your sig Amailer. I made a perl script at home that I run from Wednesday to Friday every week that scans for updates on http://a.scarywater.net/lunar/ every thirty minutes until it finds a new Bleach episode. :) ----------------------------------- Martin Fri May 20, 2005 8:10 am ----------------------------------- I saw it last night.Ouch. Lucas would have had a hard time making it any more obvious that he was just cashing in. The acting was painful and there was a pointless lightsaber fight ever 3 minutes. It was so bad it started to get funny in the middle of it. It's got this B movie charm to it, I must admit, but it's just resounding proof that the real Star Wars died a long time ago. ----------------------------------- Amailer Fri May 20, 2005 9:51 am ----------------------------------- Star Wars acting has always sucked - I sitll have to see one where their acting is actually good..... but anyhow, how was the special effects? better/worse/same? Hehe, I just noticed your sig Amailer. I made a perl script at home that I run from Wednesday to Friday every week that scans for updates on http://a.scarywater.net/lunar/ every thirty minutes until it finds a new Bleach episode. :) lol nice but I use the RSS Feed from AnimeSuki and yeah it updates pretty fast so I get the latest updates from there. ----------------------------------- Notoroge Fri May 20, 2005 11:14 am ----------------------------------- Hehe, I just came home (sick) to find my computer had *just* started downloading the latest Bleach 32. :) ----------------------------------- Amailer Fri May 20, 2005 11:16 am ----------------------------------- Hehe, I just came home (sick) to find my computer had *just* started downloading the latest Bleach 32. :) Oh, it auto-dls?? Hmmm intresting...... Send me it! lol (btw, bleach 32 came out like 2 days ago :| I first dled it from Bleach-socity :P good eps if you like story telling :) I liked it *whahaha*) Anyhow back on topic...(PM ME) ----------------------------------- Notoroge Fri May 20, 2005 12:18 pm ----------------------------------- Uh, yeah... I download Lunar Anime's releases because they rock. Awsome quality + sound. They take a little longer but with good reason. Anyways, yeah... what about that Anakin, eh? *Tsk* *Tsk*, so evil. :P ----------------------------------- Mazer Fri May 20, 2005 3:54 pm ----------------------------------- Uh, yeah... I download Lunar Anime's releases because they rock. Awsome quality + sound. They take a little longer but with good reason. Anyways, yeah... what about that Anakin, eh? *Tsk* *Tsk*, so evil. :P I just skipped to the last post and it looked like you were suggesting that Lunar released a bootleg of Ep3. :) (I also always wait for Lunar's releases, just because I'm already accustomed to their style already) I think I'll go see Star Wars next week sometime. Alot of people from my work went to see it at midnight apparently. Yep, it turns out I'm surrounded by nerds. ----------------------------------- Paul Fri May 20, 2005 5:27 pm ----------------------------------- I'm going to go tonight, showing up 1.5 hrs early to get good seats, sux when you have great tickets but bad seats. ----------------------------------- Amailer Sat May 21, 2005 7:08 am ----------------------------------- This is off topic many people do it (go off topic that is) so bah. Lunar might not be uploading bleach eps soon-- apprently there has been talking about bleach being licensed... damm Lunars translation was good (except for the last eps, i found Bleach-society's eps better). ----------------------------------- Notoroge Sat May 21, 2005 10:49 am ----------------------------------- Even if they are licensed, there'll always be the unofficial torrents of those eps floating around. ;) ----------------------------------- Paul Sat May 21, 2005 1:19 pm ----------------------------------- I liked it, it was a good and happy ending. Brings the "end" of the series in quite nicely. ----------------------------------- Notoroge Sat May 21, 2005 1:26 pm ----------------------------------- "Happy" ending? :lol: ----------------------------------- Amailer Sat May 21, 2005 1:39 pm ----------------------------------- I have yet to see it-- dammit--- Iunno, I heard it was good- some people say it was good but they woulnd't watch it again. Anyhow... by any chance...anyone watch "Phantom Of The Opera"? The music is CRAZY!!! (epsecially the piece "phantom of the opera" hehe) ----------------------------------- Bacchus Sat May 21, 2005 3:05 pm ----------------------------------- i have i think 3 copies of that movie (one for my mom, and one for each of my sisiters) but i still havent seen it :( ive heard all the music many many times before and yes, their amazing. in fact for the song 'Phantom of the Opera' i know all of the words it got stuck in my head so much... :shock: you kno, i think im gonna go watch that now :D ----------------------------------- Amailer Sat May 21, 2005 3:33 pm ----------------------------------- The theme song is crazy- school band (senior) played it... (on wed) and to make things weird/intresting/oddly-funny the conductor (aka my grd teacher also) came running in with a cape and a mask :P I have no idea what the movie really is about... ----------------------------------- [Gandalf] Sat May 21, 2005 9:04 pm ----------------------------------- The theme song is crazy- school band (senior) played it...

Lol, ya - same. I actually found it quite hard, it goes pretty fast (I was playing 'clarinet' lol) Well, we were doing Broadway songs, so we chose that and "memory" from I don't know where. Anyways, this is really off topic in and off topic post, so ya... I'm seeing SW3 in a week maybe? Have to wait for that dang craze to die down. ----------------------------------- Paul Sat May 21, 2005 9:39 pm ----------------------------------- It was a happy ending. Anakin got what he deserved for killing innocents (no matter how blind you are, you'd have to be insane to kill children). But in the end he did bring balance to the force. (If you only watch the movies and do not follow the entire storyline, then you wouldn't understand what I'm talking about, entirely.) In the end where they showed the babies, it made the title 'A new hope' very adequate. ----------------------------------- Bacchus Sat May 21, 2005 11:43 pm ----------------------------------- ya the clarinet part and the flute part in that go quite fast, as my band is playing it too lol i was soo happy (i play trumpet btw) but when i finally found the movie to watch it, it was great! not hard to follow, quite easy in fact. as for SW3, i wanna see it! bah i need to go soon ----------------------------------- the_short1 Tue May 24, 2005 10:53 am ----------------------------------- yea.. the day after release.. looked on isohunt for episode 2 (so i could watch 3 and know it) cuz i watched all but 2.. .. anyways. episode 3 came up... it was already downloaded 23k times in 2days! yea!... but im going tothreatres.. ----------------------------------- [Gandalf] Tue May 24, 2005 2:51 pm ----------------------------------- Ya, that always happens...

Good movie. Gave me chills when they put on Vaders mask and he started to breathe..... :D What I dont get is how at the end, when Vader is standing in the Star destroyer all of a sudden, the guys flying the ship are no longer the clones, but those guys in the gray uniforms from the original three movies.... ----------------------------------- Mazer Wed May 25, 2005 6:26 am ----------------------------------- Went and saw it on Saturday night.

(Aprox) ----------------------------------- MyPistolsIn3D Wed May 25, 2005 2:54 pm ----------------------------------- I was figuring that if you cared about the spoilers you would be a big star wars fan, and if you were a big star wars fan, you would have seen it already. lol. ----------------------------------- MihaiG Wed May 25, 2005 4:08 pm ----------------------------------- its already on DVD check a black market russian/chinese mall ives seen em there lol... they sell for liek 10 bucks... :twisted: ----------------------------------- MihaiG Thu May 26, 2005 3:14 pm ----------------------------------- there selling pirated dvds at our school.... i have already pre-ordered ;-)... ----------------------------------- axej Sun May 29, 2005 3:05 pm ----------------------------------- there selling pirated dvds at our school.... i have already pre-ordered ;-)... wow. anyways yeah i saw it. only cause my friend downloaded it. general grevious is cool :lol: ----------------------------------- brenn Sun May 29, 2005 3:41 pm ----------------------------------- its already on DVD check a black market russian/chinese mall ives seen em there lol... they sell for liek 10 bucks... :twisted: wait, there exists a russian/chinese mall?! ----------------------------------- axej Sun May 29, 2005 3:53 pm ----------------------------------- i don't think so. i think he meant a russian or chinese mall. :lol: ----------------------------------- Neo Sun May 29, 2005 4:23 pm ----------------------------------- The first half of the movie is pretty gay. Whoever wrote the script needs to get fired. The guy who plays anikin (Christenson?) does a bad job of playing anikin when he is good, after he turns evil I think he did a pretty good job, mostly because he looks the part. Even though the first half sucked, the last 30 minutes was well done. ----------------------------------- axej Sun May 29, 2005 4:27 pm ----------------------------------- nah the ending was way too drawn out :? ----------------------------------- Andy Sun May 29, 2005 4:44 pm ----------------------------------- yoda kicked so much ass in that movie, he almost made me wish i was green short and old ----------------------------------- axej Sun May 29, 2005 5:35 pm ----------------------------------- too true!!!!! :lol: :lol: ----------------------------------- Neo Sun May 29, 2005 5:43 pm ----------------------------------- yoda kicked so much ass in that movie, he almost made me wish i was green short and old Actually yoda got his ass handed to him by darth sidious... ----------------------------------- axej Sun May 29, 2005 5:50 pm ----------------------------------- darth sidious gives me the creeps man ----------------------------------- the_short1 Sun May 29, 2005 6:54 pm ----------------------------------- uhh.. . yoda was still awsome.. hes like slow.. with a cane.. then all a sudden.. jumping around and kicking some ass.. . if he didnlt need to save anican.. he woulda won :D :D ----------------------------------- [Gandalf] Sun May 29, 2005 10:52 pm ----------------------------------- yoda kicked so much ass in that movie, he almost made me wish i was green short and old Actually yoda got his ass handed to him by darth sidious... Don't know if anyone hasn't seen it, but isnt that like... a spoiler? Ya, I saw it yesterday (saturday) - awesome, better than the first two. It has some really, really good cgi, which made it worth watching in the theatres - even the random small details which nobody would notice were made well. Execute order 66! Muahahaha anyone else think those jedi went down way too fast? ----------------------------------- MyPistolsIn3D Sun May 29, 2005 11:43 pm ----------------------------------- Yes. Wayy too fast.

That was hilarious... Not the part where dark vader says "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO", but the way in which you explained it. But I must agree, the guy who plays dark vader does do a pretty bad job of showing emotion. ----------------------------------- Mazer Tue May 31, 2005 10:11 pm ----------------------------------- Indeed, Neo, "Anakin" and "Padme" were spelled incorrectly as well. But hey, nothing quite like being a dick head for fun times, eh? Amailer, Luke screaming "Noooo" (Or to be more acurrate, "No! That can't be! That's IMPOSSIBLE!") was Episode V. Although he did shout "Noooo!" in Episode IV, but that was in reaction to Obi-Wan Kenobi's death. ----------------------------------- Amailer Wed Jun 01, 2005 5:29 am ----------------------------------- Oh right... well w/e its still weird 'noooo' and I did put * at the names because I was sure I didn't get them right :roll: Anyhow, I still liked the film....

The lightsaber dual does not even compare to the ones in the new movie. ----------------------------------- [Gandalf] Wed Jun 01, 2005 5:09 pm ----------------------------------- I downloaed episode 4 not a good thing to say :) Yeah, since those movies were made a good 20 years earlier, they didn't coriograph (sp?!!) the fights as well, and they weren't as good at the blue/green screen effects. Do you see people jumping around huge platforms in Eps 4-6? No. Too bad, because now it looks like those guys in 4-6 didn't know how to use the force as well, when in reality they should be even stronger in some cases. ----------------------------------- Bacchus Wed Jun 01, 2005 7:16 pm ----------------------------------- But then that leads to the question again, Are they going to redo Eps. 4-6? Myself, I think they will. To make them all fit together well, but probably mainly to rake in more money. ----------------------------------- [Gandalf] Wed Jun 01, 2005 8:39 pm ----------------------------------- George Lucas said there is no way that he is going to do another movie - he is done with making Star Wars.

No. Although George Lucas *did* write novels of the first three films, they were published AFTER Star Wars was released in theatres. The plot was completely new to everyone, it wasn't from any book. In fact, Mark Hamill himself didn't know that Darth Vader was his father until about five minutes before the scene was shot -- until then, he had been given a script that read that Obi-Wan had killed his father. Then, right before that scene was to be filmed, he was pulled over and told "Here's the real script." Apparently this measure was taken because they didn't want Mark to *act* like he knew the truth in the rest of the scenes (since movies are rarely shot in order). ----------------------------------- Mazer Thu Jun 02, 2005 7:27 am ----------------------------------- That's really interesting... sort of like the prison level scene in A New Hope where Harrison Ford intentionally didn't learn his lines for when he was speaking over the intercom so his reaction would be better. On the other hand, I saw Ep 3 last night. The title came on and I began to remember what I loved about the movies when I was just a nerdling in the seventh grade. My eyes were tearing up during the opening crawl. But just after that it sucked completely. I wanted to be able to say something like "wtf are you nerds talking about? He did a great job with this movie!" But the truth is he didn't. I hated the special effects. The original movies looked good because they weren't the whole focus. Now Lucas has made three movies where the whole message is "Look, I have ILM, aren't you impressed??" I'd bitch about specific things but I don't like spoilers. If you've seen the rest of the movies, my bitching couldn't stop you from seeing this one anyways. It's a trap! At many points in the movie I was shaking my head in disgust and thinking I should just get up and leave. And get this: When I came out of the movie (there were about 20 people total in the theater, btw) the fucking assholes had ALREADY TURNED OFF THE DDR MACHINES. DAMNIT. The only upside to last night was the boston cream doughnut I had was great. Though technically that was around 1:15 so it was today. rrrraaAAARARRRRRRRRGGGGHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!! ----------------------------------- MyPistolsIn3D Thu Jun 02, 2005 4:01 pm ----------------------------------- "]George Lucas said there is no way that he is going to do another movie - he is done with making Star Wars.

A star wars movie with real acting!! He can't legally "give them to someone else" because George Lucas was kicked out of the Director's Guild in the eighties over Empire and Jedi, and the guild doesn't let you work with non-guild workers. That's part of the reason why Lucas' casting selection was so limited as well. Any other director taking over for Star Wars would be basically committing career suicide. Supposedly Lucas actually asked Spielberg to direct a prequel (Lucas didn't direct Empire, either), but was turned down because it would be way too risky for Spielberg's membership of the guild. There *is* however, a confirmed TV series coming out in the next few years. And I don't mean the "Clone Wars" cartoon, I mean a literal live-action series... something to look forward to :D ----------------------------------- Amailer Sat Jun 04, 2005 6:36 am ----------------------------------- Yeah it is when I don't know... What exactally are they going to show? they killed the Sith Lord... ----------------------------------- Mazer Sat Jun 04, 2005 12:36 pm ----------------------------------- Possibly building off of the extended universe stuff. Star Wars didn't entirely end when George said so. Supposedly the New Jedi Order books are good. ----------------------------------- wtd Sun Jun 05, 2005 1:08 pm ----------------------------------- Yeah it is when I don't know... What exactally are they going to show? they killed the Sith Lord... I've heard from reliable sources that it features the adventures of a buttoned-down young Jedi and a brash, mercurial Sith. It's going to be called "Darthma and Greg". ----------------------------------- Amailer Sun Jun 05, 2005 2:44 pm ----------------------------------- No more luke...? NO MORE YODA?! StarWars isn't starwars without yoda! ----------------------------------- axej Sun Jun 05, 2005 2:56 pm ----------------------------------- How true... :) you can't have star wars without R2D2 either ----------------------------------- Notoroge Tue Jun 07, 2005 7:43 am ----------------------------------- Bleep bloop bloop BLEEP. BLEEP BLEEP bloop-bloop-bloop BREEEEE. ----------------------------------- [Gandalf] Tue Jun 07, 2005 3:16 pm ----------------------------------- Bleep bloop bloop BLEEP. BLEEP BLEEP bloop-bloop-bloop BREEEEE. Is that supposed to be R2D2 morse code, or..? Another StarWars movie or two would be cool :). ----------------------------------- Mazer Tue Jun 07, 2005 3:37 pm ----------------------------------- Maybe for kids. And I don't mean that in a "omfg, George Lucas can't make good movies anymore" way, either. Episodes 4, 5, and 6 were the ultimate spoilers. After seeing (and partly memorizing) those movies, there is nothing to gain from seeing the prequels. If you've seen the first three you can be sure that: - Anakin turns to the Dark Side of the Force - His children are Luke and Leia (though they are hidden from him) - All of the Jedi (except Yoda and Obi-Wan) are killed You ALREADY know what will happen, so you can get nothing incredible out of the story, and everything else just seems like (very boring) filler. I'm thinking that had I seen all of the movies in order (of events, not creation) I would've hated 1, 2 and 3 much less. But Jar Jar wasn't helping anything. ----------------------------------- axej Tue Jun 07, 2005 7:32 pm ----------------------------------- heh heh jar jar and the gungans :lol: even if you know what ultimately happens, you still want to see how all the jedi wre wiped out and how it actually happened was pathetic. ----------------------------------- Mazer Tue Jun 07, 2005 8:20 pm ----------------------------------- I was planning on not seeing it. I only went against my better judgement because a friend said I'd like it. Foolish me, trusting a girl on Star Wars related decisions. I'll agree with the Jedi part though. Lucas truly did mess that up, IMO.
