I also liked the PT better than the OT. I am a tad older than DK...
However, I loved all of them. Greatly.
I think that no matter what GL would have done with the PT, veterans weren't going to like it. I call it the "blankie" syndrome. They just can't let go of their blankie. I think its painfully obvious that the PT was better than the OT. Let go of your damned blankies and face the fact that the PT is better than the OT in just about every way.
No...none of this was a joke.
I WILL be watching this movie. I will be siting in line for 12 hours, watching the PT on my laptop while other nerds gather around to watch with me.

I 100% agree with this post, except for the fact that the PT were basically a pile of garbage compared to the genius of the OT. Since that is obvious. Sure it had nicer graphics and more action, but that doesn't make a good movie...as George again proved with Indiana Jones 4. Though, you probably think that one's better than the original as well.

And I have heard TERRIBLE things about Indy 4.

What nonsense. It was clear after the Trilogy that the dark side is a powerful force and Vader a badass. After the Travesty (PT) all that was shown is that Anakin is a whiny, stupid child that went dark for no reason, without giving a fight and also that he wasn't a badass but a cocky pussy.
I prefer the impression I had from the old ones.

Well that only leaves the blankie syndrome of the veterans, myself being older than DK, and waiting in line with a laptop to see this new one. 😖hifty:

All the old timers who saw the original Indiana Jones movies are saying that they loved 4 the best. I haven't seen it. That being said, this is in gross contrast to the PT...in which most of the old timers(many of them the same people) thought the OT was better. This is just my experience...but that doesn't mean it fits for all. I am holding my judgment UNTIL I see IJ4.

When I did that for ROTS, everyone was huddled around my laptop watching it. I think it's a great way to pass the time and the other movie goers sure appreciate it.

I'm 22, mate.
I wouldn't say I'm a veteran, I can stell a superior movie when I see one though.
I didn't feel raped, like DK, after watching them, I was entertained even, they just weren't nearly as good...

Are you done with your Mathematics degree yet?

Myself as well. I admit that I have watched much better written movies (recently, revolver comes to mind). Star Wars is still one of my favorite movie franchises, though.

Fair enough. That's actually what I'd expect out of everyone. They may not be as good to you as the OT, but hell, they were prety f*ckin entertaining.

Nope, not even close.

I don't think the OT was badly written.

I wouldn't say pretty ****ing entertaining, like...if it was between AOTC/TPM and Mr. and Mrs. Smith, I wouldn't be quite sure what to watch from entertainment value.

Sooo.....you don't get a degree until the Ph.D.? You should be in post grad school by now, right?

Nor do I...I wasn't implying it was.

From what I hear, everyone liked Mr. and Mrs. Smith. Even the critics gave it nice reviews. So I guess that is your way of saying you liked the PT...you just didn't love it? 😖hifty:
