Chill overlord. I don't feel attacked. And don't act so innocent, you did mock me when you wrote: "I'll translate this for the people who care: "Wéh wéh wéh!!..." Mocking is considered bad net form, in case you didn't know. I don't care if you did mock me, just don't act like a saint around here when you accuse others. You just don't like it that I don't reply to posts the way you like it. Well 'scuse me for not doing things the way you like to. In case you didn't know it's a big world, and people write thing in many different ways, and not always the way you like them. I don't have hours to spend on boards like this. I do not accuse you of hating the pt, I would never be that specific. I do not resort to name calling, except for one post in another thread which I quickly apologized for and I never have before or since. My posts are very constructive and make point after point. What you call paranoid I call common sense, I can't help it if your vision won't let you see it.
You are comparing paranoia to common sense? What the hell are you talking about? But no.. Your posts aren't very constructive and I have pointed this out already without you debunking my arguments.
Guess what? Kid or senior citizen, when xyz wrote "AOTC just needs a do-over", that post deserves a response. A quick, and swift response that "doing AOTC" over is ridiculous.
Guess what.. Why bother, it's just xyz.. But no.. You don't make swift responses.
Trust me. You can make your points in much shorter messages.
No, it is not "clear" he didn't write out the PT plot. Where do you get this material, some sitcom writer's jokebook? The movies do not seem horribly out of place, they seem right on target. The timeline's perfect. TPM a "generation" before Star Wars, ATOC 10 years after that, ROTS 3 or whatever years after ATOC. I'll give the creators some wiggle room, it's not cast in stone with birthdays that can be found in some Motor Vehicle Department of Records! Now you tell me where these so-called plots are 'horribly' out of place. Where, that Owen & Beru look younger than they "should" be? Well, ever seen faces of people who live in a desert? Their skin looks like an old naugahyde sofa! But since you're clear as mud in this point, please "educate" us all.
Yeah, the timeline is perfect.. Lucas could have placed a story in any time of Anakin's life and you would still say that. But that comment about Owen & Beru was the worst bit of discussing I have ever seen.. Please act normal when debating.
It doesn't take a first-year film student to know that if you spend 3 years on a film, that's a lot of man-hours, especially with the staff Lucas has. And what's with the " R U G L?" line? Now you're reducing your arguments to the absurd, and the sarcasm rises to the level of bitterness and smacks of insults. Pot... kettle... black.
I wasn't sarcastic.. And that is another reason why I state that you are acting paranoid/silly. I said it because you using years as an argument to why AotC must have been written on sufficiently. You act like you know exactly how GL produced and wrote it.
Still.. In my opinion AotC looks poorly thought up like something went wrong, like they had to make it as fast as they can and you aren't exactly good at convincing of your opinion with your weak arguments.
Be my guest!! Who's stopping you? You think you're doing me a favor? Sheesh.
Read the thread again. I said this because you come across as offended with your "OMG, you freaking PT haters! I am the defender of the PT!!" comments.
I don't need random annoying crap like that constantly while discussing in a thread.
No, Mr. Overlord I'm not GL, and not a Lucas expert and neither are you. Yet again with the mocking. I would agree with you the script wasn't perfect, but I wouldn't say it stunk.
No, I don't even think it stinks, I am discussing the bad parts about it and why it doesn't really fit the SW saga. And don't feel so attacked by my two "do you think you're Lucas or something" comments, I still think they were appropriate as you are stating rediculous stuff as facts, like you 'been there' or something.
Aha, just my point, I was pointing out how fascinating it was watching Palpatine rise to power, and you call it over-analyzing! I guess there's no pleasing you. Again, I do not feel attacked; you only think I do, for some unknown reason. If other people think AOTC's not that interesting, I'll be happy share my reasons for why it is interesting, and you say I'm just an prequel apologist. Well it's very nice to label people like that so you can just ignore the point of their posts without any reasoning behind it to back it up. I'd love to analyze it calmly, and I have many a time, but too many posts come back with oh-so droll zingers that say AOTC stinks, and so I am duty-bound to fight back.No, it doesn't please me that you are dreaming away about the Palpatine fight for example while discussing with me because you are supposed to be trying to convince me. Therefor you are not the constructive debator you claim to be.
And no, I don't 'label' you to ignore your point. Every other person would have just labeled you fanboy but I am actually arguing with you.
But to your information: over-analyzation still doesn't make the actual thing brilliant.
How many times do I have to say it? AOTC doesn't stink, it's a spectacular film! Many parts were absolutely thrilling. Anakins telling of the sandpeople slaughter was bone-chilllingly evil. Notice here I'm not saying it's perfect, but it is spectacular, (not mutually exclusive).
Yes, and that is what I would like to discuss with you in a proper fashion with you stopping your random 'crusade' to express your disgust of people who dissagree and expressing your fanboy like mentality towards AotC. And to help you for your next post: Yes, you do come across like this in my opinion.
(sarcasm/on)Whew, I'm so glad you posted this, as I was about to kick the three-legged stool out from under me, and the hangman's noose was getting tighter around my neck!(off)
Oh okay.. As long as you don't end up posting like Pondo Booboo, who's last post was that he was going to kill himself.
And for some reason you reminded me of him.. Isn't that funny? 🙂
