Does anybody wonder why Yoda speaks so funny?
I'm sure, he had an apoplexia. ;)
I think it's because of Lucas obsession with Japaniese films.
In the english language, a sentence is build as Object-Verb-Object, while in japaniese a sentence is build as Object-Object-Verb.
Just like Yoda speaks (I think?)

Booked my flight.
I'll arrive on July 1st in the afternoon and leave on July 6th.

I'll be flying to heathrow, and since I know the way to Layeham so well, I'll take the bus this time.

France voted "non". Today The Netherlands have to vote.
Update: The Netherlands also say "nee".

the cons

    Shady and unclear law. Even experts are argueing about what they might mean.
    People feel screwed about the â,¬uro.
    Arguements inside political parties.
    Is it good for the whales or bad for the whales. Is it good for economy or bad for the economy.
    Nobody red it.
    Heard nothing but bad things about it.
    Sticking it to the man.

the pros

This is where the pros would be if I could think of one.
Because I don't like the French.
[/list]

Please give some arguements so I can fill the Pro and Con lists.

I think Flukeblake feels angry and humiliated because moderators keep locking/moving his threats.
Flukeblake, don't be. The moderators have no personal grudge against you.

I'm gain.
After August 15th would be great since I said that I can't work the 34-35th* weekÃ,  and I would be easier to get week 33 off as well.


Is it true that you cant flush used toilet paper in Greece?!

*these are the buzzies weeks (I like to call them hell weeks), and I don't want to be around when there are only two people working the phone. I did this too manny times before and had to do a d10/d100 sanity check.

I like the purple lightsaber, and I wished all the jedi had a different color. In dark forced: jedi knight: You could chose different lightsaber colors. The jedi in eps I-III look like clones to me (remember that shot in the arena in eps II?). They could have focused on few special ones. In that case you would feel more greef when they die.
They overdo it with the deathgods in Bleach, though. Every squadleader is heavely designed, wich makes them harder to remember and distracts you from the main characters.
EDIT:


I forgot to add something positive to mr. Lucas. There is one thing that George Lucas does best. Making good villians. The Emperer, Vader, Maul, Grevious, Boba fett, stormtroopers, Jabba the Hut, they are all so evil that they're good.
Grevious was cool as an ill robot that fights with lightsabers he stole from jedi. It would be even cooler if Dokoo was transformed into Grevious after he battled with Anikin. Because both Grevious and Dokoo are not long enough in the movie to show their potencial.

Is starwars a political statement? No. There might be some ovious parallels, though. But starwars is most of all a fairytail.

Last. Remakes are bad if the originals were good. The end of Apocolypse Now Redux sucked. Flight of the Phoenix shows how hollywood films have changed into cloned, political correct storylines (we better add a girl and a colored person in it or people might call us racists/sexists. and because of the bubblegum acting, we better put in a black vs. white, us vs. them, evil villian). The original film became a classic, never the remake.

So in the SW universe there are klones and robots to fight your wars, there are flying cars andÃ, you can travel faster then light. Yet, they never heard of ANTI-CONCEPTION pills/objects? Anikin, can't you use forcepullout just before you reach climax?

One thing it to remain blind to some silly things that happen in the Star Wars gallaxy (Like hearing sounds in the space, some gravity effects that should never happen in the space, the fact that you can have an open space to the space in the big spaceships without escape of the ship's atmosphera, the nice "unbloody" cut the lightsabers do...)
...
There has never been a explosion in space while someone was taking a spacewalk without their suit on. The explosions might be bubbles of carbon dioxcide that make the shockwave be heard. And all the si-fi series have sound in space. It's weird that you nitpick on this.

I would really revisit all that battle into a digitall one, with the new DVD's it shouldn't be a problem to sell both, original and revisited, together.
...
Instead of revising the originals into a rendered movie, play some lucasart games like rogue sqadron and x-wing vs tie-fighter.

And I think this was the problem with the new Episodes. In the original trilogy the effects were there to help immerse you in this alternate galaxy while your onscreen buddies go on an adventurous romp, to help suspend your disbelief. The new trilogy is nothing BUT special effects, everything is founded inside the computer where suddenly it becomes so unbelieveable that it's quite blatant everything you see is just an elaborate set-piece done in Maya and you stop caring for anything that's going on. When Darth Vader and Obi-Wan duel in Episode 4 it's much more exciting as although it's not as acrobatically 'impressive' as their "hi-we're-keyframed-computer-models-moving-too-fast-to-concentrate-on" battle in 'Sith', it actually _feels_ like two guys fighting with lightsabres - you become totally engrossed in the tension created by the wise bearded hermit taking on the face of evil. Anakin and Obi-Wan swinging their things around on a platform about to plunge into molten rock? It's ok, they're just zeros and ones hanging over more zeros and ones. My disbelief is not suspended no matter how many hours it took to render that frame.
...
I agree with one, zero, zero percent. A movie like shaulin soccer uses over-the-top CG effects too, but they use it only on special occasions. In this way, the special FX feel like the single candy you get from your grandparents just before you go home. While eps.I-III & the matrix gives so much candy that your tummy hurts.

I've seen SW3 yesterday and I must say that if you watch the film with low expectations it will be a suprisingly nice film. There were some things that I didn't expect. Overall a good film, but that might be because of the destructive nature that appeared so much in the 3 originals.

however...and here it comes...there were some "flaws".
Spoiler

1. Why didn't someone saw the jedi holocaust comming. They could have read a klone's mind.
2. If the jedi in the temple are so powerful why did they got their asses kicked by the klones.
3. If Anikin is so afraid of losing Padmin, why is he so distant from her.
4. Padmin has transformed from a strong queen to a humble housewife.
5. Anikin informs Mace Windo that the senator is a sith lord, the senator reveals his true face, Anikin chops Windo's hand off, the senator kills Windo, Anikin says "what have I done", the senator asks Anikin to join the dark side with his charisma -5 and Anikin just says "...okay".  Anikin swithes sides like a lightswitch.
6. Why is Chubacca in the film. Characters that don't infuence the story don't have to make an appearence. (same goes for 3CPO, though)
7.  (and this had nothing to do with the story itself). While watching the second-last scene, the film got off the reel. CRAPPY MOVIE THEATRE, LAST TIME I GO THERE! So I think that the second-last scene is about the senator becomming officially the emperer.
[close]

All and all, a big movie with a small story. Think about it, the story of the SW films are focussed on just a handfull of characters while the si-fi CGI enviroment are there just to distract us. Most of the characters don't change a bit throughout the film. They change between the bit that is not filmed. Finally we're done with the prequals.
