Long time fan. Abandoning ship. Major Rants
Maul 672
a child and as a adult, read the books, played "Star Wars" on the
playground..dreamed of using the force..ect..ect..you get the point.. After
Return of the Jedi I had heard whispers of Star Wars IV (that was what it was
called back then) but nothing..nothing for years and years to come..but when
news hit of the new movies, I was very excited and started counting the days
right up until the opening of The Phantom Menace.. stood in line for 18 or so
hours for tickets..saw it like, 20 times in the theater.. yes, I even defended
jar jar **temp insanity**.. but now that AotC is coming out, I can no longer
defend what this has become... I started having a bad feeling when I heard that
Christopher Lee was going to be the villian in this movie..I have nothing
against Lee, as you will see later, but for him to be the villian in this movie
along with Palpy..well, that is just unbelievable because Plapy is the
mastermind..he needs a able body to carry out his plans, I am sorry but an 80
year old actor with a lightsaber is just too much for me to deal with, even
more so after seeing Ray Park as Darth Maul.. the next blow was the god awful
title..WTF ? I know this has been the subject of many a topic so that is all I
will say on that..but the straw that broke this life long fan's back what the
news of the horrid N'SYNC. This is too much. Episode IV, V, VI are the true
Star Wars to me, so far what I have seen out of this new Lucas has been crap. I
honestly believe that Lucas is getting soft in the head OR he thinks that he is
above everything and can put out shit and still make money..which is true. BUT
there is a bright side to all of this.. just as Lucas is distroying the very
thing that made him what he is..or should I say WAS....there is hope for us
fans that can not go along with this travesty... that hope is "The Lord of the
Rings" This is what Star Wars (Episode I and what is looking to be II) should
have been.. special effects that ADDED to the story..not something that WAS the
story.. people who can ACT (imagine that !!) their way out of a wet paper
bag..(not pointing fingures but there wasn't one actor in LotR shouting out
"YIPPIE"or "The shield generators been hit!!") and best of all..no little teen
band. The new crap that Lucas is putting out could not compare to the first 20
minutes of LotR, much less the remaining 2 hours and 40 minutes of it.
With that being said, a Star Wars fan of 25 years just saw the light and now
knows that something has happened to the real lucas and he was replaced by
something else. Someone less talented..who has lost his edge. Who has lost his
ablity to come up with a good story to go along with those nifty effects that
he is so proud of, who will put a no talent TEEN BAND in a major motion picture
because his daughter is a FAN --PLEASE..Can someone say SPOILED.. What if his
daughter gets to like bitch Britney between now and Episode III.. will SHE be
cast as Palpy's lover ? I am surprised that there wasn't a big purple dino in
TPM..
Thank God and Tolkien that there is hope left.
PS.. Lee was great in LotR and is a good actor.. LotR = Old Wise, Wizard..I can
see that.. AotC = A Jedi with a name of COUNT DOOKU that can fight off the
most powerful jedi in the universe...riiiiiigggghhhhtttt! This was bad casting
at the worst and whoever came up with that name should be shot.
Jedipreist
the cart before the hores. in other words you all ready have a negitive veiw of
this movie so when it does come out your going to hate it so don't bother
watching it .when it does.
Personaly think Lucas is having a mid life crisses . I think hes trying to
make up for things he wished could have done when hes was younger . My dads
the same age and is acting wierd He likes going to night clubs and likes to
date girls 30 years younger then him .

So the fact that Rick Macullum invited three of the guys to appear in
a crowd scene and you're likely not even to notice them is enough for
you to throw away a twenty-plus-year hobby. Doesn't that seem...
well... geeky and silly to you? It sure does to me. You have no idea
who might have had cameos in the other four films -- it's common
practice for directors or producers to give cameos to visiting famous
people as a favor. Just because the NSYNC cameos became publicized
doesn't mean they're the only ones. And besides that, I still don't
see how their inclusion in a scene of extras -- which might still make
it to the cutting room floor -- is more offensive than Jar-Jar, the
Ewoks, the Holiday Special, Mark Hamill's acting, General Madine's
haircut, or any of the other negative aspects of Star Wars. This is
especially so given that you've spent all these years reading the
books and comics and so forth -- I have, too, and the quality varies
highly among them. Some are great, while some are outlandishly dumb.
How could NSYNC's minor, minor cameo be worse than, say, the fact that
"The Crystal Star" was allowed to be published? See, this is exactly
the kind of extremist reaction that gives Star Wars fans a "geek"
label. I can't fathom throwing out a two-decade hobby over something
like this. Relax, man, and enjoy the film -- you haven't even seen it
yet, and you're discarding it, despite all signs that it'll blow TPM
away. And why? Because an 80-year-old actor will weild a lightsaber
-- something hardly new to the Star Wars films -- and because some
famous people have been given cameos as extras -- something not new to
ANY films. With all due respect, this is even geekier than spending
several days on line just to see a movie.
HppyButchr
like everyoneelse who claims that they won't go see it over this cameo. its
really just sad when people are so protective over something they enjoy, that
allowing different things into it so others might enjoy it becomes
sacreligious.

Christopher Lee is one of the greatest actors that is and ever was in the
film industry. I have never seen him turn out a bad performance. Even when
the man appears in BAD films (and he's had his share) his acting is always
impeccable- Gremlins 2 for example. He was one of the only reasons to watch
that film. Having him in AOTC, whether at 80, 90, or 137 is a welcome
addition to any film. I bet he kicks some major ass in the film too!

What does it matter to you? It's his hobby. He can throw it away
if he wants. Do you have stock in Lucasfilm or something?

No, it means that Lucas and friends have their minds on publicizing
the presence of N'Sync in this movie, not publicizing that it
might be a good movie that people OTHER than really young teens
might like.
And besides that, I still don't

People are really stretching when they try to includ the Holiday
Special as 'Star Wars flaw'. Same with Mark Hamill's acting, which
was pretty decent.

I begin to doubt your sanity here my friend. This move has yet to be
released yet you know what Lee's role will be in the film. How can you tell
whether or not the character was miscast when NO ONE knows the full plot to
the movie?
I am assuming that Dooku will be a little more than a hitman- which is what
Maul was in Ep1. Plus I think that it is assured that he will have more than
3 lines, which is what Maul had in EP1. As for Obi Wan's battle in
ANH...you maybe need to watch the film again.

Why a joke? Maybe he's part some other race more long lived than humans? One
does not need to move like Ray Park to "kick ass". That was Maul's thing,
perhaps Count KooKoo has greater force powers, who knows. Besides the brute
force part of Sideous plan may now be replaced with more subtle
machinations...
> JUST like
> Obi Wan was a joke with his lightsaber in Episode IV
A joke? He was an old broken down Jedi. Now if he'd been replaced by a
stuntman doing backflips that might have been a joke.
>..that may have been ok in
> 1977 but that kind of fight wont fly post matrix.
So you're saying every battle from here on in has to be like the Matrix or
its not "believable". If its appropriate to the storyline it will fly.
Imagine Star Wars exactly like it is, but now Vader and Ben having a
"Matrix-style" fight. Now THAT would be fucking hilarious, and a joke.

Lots of directors stick people in as extras as a favor. If he lingers on
them then I agree its stupid. They better be nothing more than background
material with no special significance whatsoever.

I don't know which of however many trailers it was, but it played up the

I think what's troubling me about it is that the whole notion of Jedi not

really generate a sense of excitement. Maybe a different trailer would;
not all of the LotR trailers were that interesting, and I love that movie.

My first guess was the fish guy in ROTJ, my second guess
is that lady who intones about the "Bothans who died to
get us this information." But I never liked ROTJ enough
to let my mind fasten on the credits for information the
way I did with SW and Empire.

Yup. Well, Doku does, and that's how the name is
supposed to be pronounced (Dough-koo). Makes me wonder
why they changed the spelling. I read that on
theforce.net though, so it may turn out to be another
Darth Vader = Dark Father thing...

Of course I know there'll be one character that
mispronounces it, starting a whole new Han/HAAAAAN

come up with is the dude that gets choked by vader on the Death Star, but that
is just a guess. Not that important.
Maul 672
can't believe a 80 year old actor could move in a way that would make a kick
ass fight scene. two words. Body Double. Lord forbid if we have a two against
one situation AGAIN.
As for the fights in V, VI.. I thought those were good enough. V was
impressive. Luke opening up on Vader at the end of RotJ was very impressive
given the day. I just can't see how we are supposed to believe that COUNT DOOKU
(aggh) could hold out against Anakin if he is as strong as he supposed to be,
Is he not supposed to be the MOST POWERFUL Jedi "THE ONE" above all others..

I always thought it was pronounced dew-ko. Which makes more sense to me
because the pronunciation for poison in Chinese sounds like dew.

It's an amazing thing what years of training, practice and constant
use can allow you to do. Anakin has only been at the Jedi thing for a
little while (10 years). I don't know how long he's had the
lightsaber, but I can't believe that it's been for the entire 10
years. Dooku, we don't know how long he's been doing his thing, but I
would think quite a long time, several decades I would imagine. So
he's got a hell of a lot more experience the Anakin. And that counts
for a hell of a lot. I speak from personal experience. I'm currently
taking fencing. Been doing it for about 6 months. My coach is a
woman who's been fencing for over 20 years. I am bigger, faster and
stronger than she is. And yet she wipes the floor with me *every*
time. I can barely touch her. So power don't mean diddly!

Well, if Anakin can do dew and can-can, then Dooku can
do dew and can-can.
He's had more time to do can-can, hasn't he?

True, true... but that would totally throw off the
canon, wouldn't it? Unless Dooku is imprisoned on the
day side of Alderaan when Tarkin swings by, then it all
works out.
We'll need an extra extra special edition for that.
