Episode III -- Just The Facts...(spoilers)
2004-02-16, 4:17 AM #1
The Force.net has a section called Just the Facts, where everything "factual" about Episode III is posted. It's not really listed in any particular order, just generally by character and/or event. If you want to know whose acronym follows a statement, just scroll down to the very bottom of the page. Some of these statements get redundunt after a while, but others....wow...

The thing they keep saying there is the final duel won't be laden with special effects, but the sheer scale of betrayal will get to the audience. I wonder how that could be so....

That's what I said for Ep1 and 2.

There are two options.

1) I'm interested to see how interesting this film is going to be.
2) I'm interested to see how hard they will screw everything up.

I hope option 1 is the final option [http://forums.massassi.net/html/frown.gif]

No, they weren't. They were supposed to set everything up so THIS one will rock. That's the point that EVERYONE seems to be missing.

Setting everything up with two movies doesn't seem to be their strong point. They should probably try something less creative, such as monitoring the operation of a ski lift.

I'm not sure what you mean. I think they did a great job setting everything up. It sounds to me like you're deliberately trying to be negative.

The third one'd better suck too, because I don't want to have paid twice to see bad movies that merely set things up for the good stuff. If the third one sucks, it's more consistent.

George could make a movie about gungans and ewoks hugging and dancing in the swampy forest and it would rock as long as there was a lightsabre in there somewhere.
So my opinion doesn't really count. heh... [http://forums.massassi.net/html/tongue.gif]

But then, if the third one sucks, you'll have paid three times to see bad movies that merely set things up for the good stuff in the Original trilogy. So you have to ask yourself, would you rather pay for 2 bad and get a good one in there, or just get ripped off and pay for 3 bad movies?

No, because I won't see episodes 4-6 (or even the special editions) in the theater unless they re-release them, so the third one won't be setting another theatrical experience for me.

The originals had terrificly entertaining and engaging characters. The prequels haven't....aside from Obi-Wan in AOTC for me. That's been the big difference for me. That and the overuse of CG. Gnosis felt like a computer game backdrop than a real SW location. The original also had vastly superior and light years more coherent set battles.

There wasn't as much character development as the original trilogy had, and the plot is just so straightforward. Episode II did a better job, Episode III better'd pull it all together... or else!

We're here in this thread to discuss Episode III, and everything we know about it. We are not here to discuss why we don't like the prequels, and condemn this one before it's even finished.

I want George to sit back and let somebody else direct and have himself on the set to give his "vision" like he did on the Original Trilogy. That, and only that, will allow Ep.3 to rock. Otherwise you're taking a mediocre director with an abnormal love of CG and expecting him to hold up to your expectations. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/frown.gif] it's not going to happen...

They're a trilogy. It's relevant.

According to the logic of Dante from "Clerks" this one has a decent chance of being the best of, at least, the prequels because this one will "end on such a downer."

The Anakin vs Obi Wan duel will be cool, as will Mace Windu 'going out in a blaze of glory'. The rest of the movie I have little hope for.
