Errm that was on TFN, we never have had one of these to my knowledge. And honestly, anyone who bashes any part of the saga cant really call themselves a fan in my opinion.

gee guess that makes me ( the peep who saw the O-OT back in 77) an "unreal" fan then eh? You kids crack me up. laughing out loud

Da preacher
You are so sick. So we're not fans because we're raised with the SE instead of the OOT or whatever u wanna call it?

The SE was my first experience with SW and i think it's better than the totally aged versions of 77-83.

And the PT made me a total fan. Is that bad? NO! I realise the OT is much better than the PT. You can't really compare the both.

The OT are masterpieces . But we did see some neat new stuff in the PT didn't we?

I like both trilogys. One's better than the other. But to me it's all Star Wars.

And the alterations only make the movie better from my point of view.

So you're telling us we're not real fans because we didn't see the OT in theaters when it came out?

Jeez, don't lemme laugh.
Ur pathetic as is ur thread.

Jedi Priestess
A. This statement is false
B. GO back and read the entire thread before you comment, otherwise you sound like an idiot.

*Natalie~Luver*
Yes, you are a bit of a god damn idiot, none the less


My personal opinion about the SE and PT..

The last really TRULY great Star Wars movie was Return of the Jedi. It marked the end of the greatest trilogy of all-time, that will age beautifully and stand the test of time. Star Wars, "The Empire Strikes Back", and "Return of the Jedi" were all masterpieces and classic, groundbreaking films filled with memorable characters, surprising plot twists, and satisfying climaxes and endings to all three. I could watch all three randomly and not get bored with any of them. They are the three greatest and most entertaining movies of all-time.

In 1997, George Lucas released the Star Wars Trilogy: Special Editions. Added scenes, added effects, and cleaned-up effects were the majority of the alterations made to the movies. However, all three movies had some changes that offended some major fans.

In ANH, there was Greedo Shooting First and a new Jabba the Hutt scene, in ESB, altering Vader's "Bring my shuttle" line and adding new footage and Luke's scream as he fell down the shaft, a new Wampa scene, in ROTJ, Jedi Rocks, Sarlacc change, new music to the ending, and, later in 2004, Hayden Christensen replacing Sebastian Shaw.

Many believe those listed changes hurt the films rather than improve them. To many, for the 2004 DVD release, it seemed like George Lucas was changing the SUPERIOR trilogy to fit with the INFERIOR trilogy, which rubbed many in the wrong way. Many despise the prequels, and yet Lucas made changes to help “tie” the two trilogies together (one of which many could care less about).


Now, onto the Star Wars Prequel Trilogy. Many (including me) fans were grandly disappointed with Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace and equally disappointed with Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones. Many arguments against them include bad acting, script and dialogue, too much "fake" CGI effects, and lack of memorable characters. However, most believe Lucas FINALLY got it right with Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith. It finally delivered what the PT promised for but had many weaknesses such as rushed out scenes and flast acting and stupidly way too much CG and fighting. Many believed George Lucas sold-out by making the Prequels and Special Editions just for the almighty buck. He lost the touch he once had.


contuined..

Now for my PERSONAL OPINION. Yes, I believe George Lucas made the Star Wars Prequel Trilogy and Special Editions for money. I think the OT by itself was perfect. It didn't NEED any Special Editions, Prequels or backstory. It stood on its pinnacle by itself, perfectly. It will continue to touch the hearts of millions for many generations to come, while the PT fades away.

The Prequel Trilogy, however, is a definite passing fad. It is simply leeching off the Original Trilogy like a trail of goldfish dung. I believe George Lucas made them for money alone, and did not even need to be told. I can stay here all day and list a million reasons why the O-OT is better than the SEs and Prequels but one thng is for sure I really pity any “fan” that would still desire to screw the OT by adding new scenes and wreck existing ones.

It was perfect for you. Not for everyone else.

Lady, this thread is about 6 months too late. Hardly anyone cares about this OT VS. OTSE & PT anymore.


Its over. Let it go.

................. I love Ep.2 blushing

Canadadude
I think it is time to let it go. We all know that Episode I, II, and III were weak and crappy movies. Just consider the OT as Star Wars and move on.
