Sign in to disble this ad
I sat through this garbage, I don't where to start. It seem Lucas wrote the horrendous dialogue, then there is the whole Jabba The Hutt's uncle who is made to be gay and character, voice modeled after Truman Capote.
An abomination of a movie!
The clone war series on Cartoon network was so good, I don't know what happened here? other than loosing two hours of my life I will never get back .
It seems to be written for 2 year olds, but then they go and cut off bounty hunters heads and put them on a stretcher??? |

What galls me too is an interview with Lucas I saw not too long ago where the interviewer asked him what was the secret to the success of the Star Wars franchise, and he said "Oh, I just have a natural intuitive understanding of what people want, I just write stories and dialog that speak to people on a deep level, it's a natural talent I have..."  |

The others in the SW series were classics, and extreme amounts of work was done to make these timeless Epics...I truley think they just got lazy on this one...
Money Grab....shamefull!
What's next, cardboard cutouts like SouthPark? |

Don't get me wrong, I love the original trilogy, but the acting and dialogue is generally pretty abysmal. Despite that, those original three films just work and are probably my favourite things to watch over and over.

Did you expect anything else after the stink-burger of episodes I-III?

Force Unlimited looks great though, one of the main reasons I bought an Xbox 360. |

Explain that to them.
The short series on Cartoon network was pretty good. the movie was nothing like it. Stiff animation as well. Horrible, like a cheap video game.
After Final Fantasy, this is utter rubbish in every way.
Shame |

Utter and complete rubbish - episodes I-III are LOADED with political plotting and doublecrosses, the kind of stuff that kids won't have a clue how to follow. Hell, I had a hard time following it too. It was incredibly convoluted and not terribly well explained - how the hell is an 8 year old going to keep up with what's going on?
Just admit it, Lucas: they are TERRIBLE films. |
