mima kake Posted August 1, 2002 Share Posted August 1, 2002 I am a Star Wars fan but... I was not so pleased with the acting performenses and the script. The special FX are cool, the love scenes terrible.... I hope George will come up with a better movie next time. The last 30 minutes did feel like Star Wars and i believe that's about it..... but who cares anyway... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mez1109 Posted August 1, 2002 Share Posted August 1, 2002 I totally agree with you, but you have to admit that you enjoyed the action scences, and I think that the good parts of the movie were more then 30min. I think SW style of showing a relationship like Han Solo and Leia, is definetly very different to AOTC. The love scense weren't so good, because the actors didn't really act as if they really mean it, but just repeated poetic words in the script, but it wasn't that bad.

ET Warrior Posted August 2, 2002 Share Posted August 2, 2002 wow......an original thread idea... Seriously....we've all heard about how nobody liked the acting...i'm tired of hearing about it........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HellFyre69 Posted August 2, 2002 Share Posted August 2, 2002 Wut ppl dont get it, is that in the OT trilogy.. Leia and Han and 3 Movies to build up their relationship. IN ATOC, anakin and Padme had only about a couple of days (according to the movie) to build up their relationship. That is why is not as complex as in the OT one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AgentSmith Posted August 2, 2002 Share Posted August 2, 2002 I thought the acting was more than good enough. (Most people don't like the acting and the dialogues in the love scenes because they just fail to grasp the concept that Star Wars is set ina different time and galaxy and is not happening on planet Earth in 2002 so the way SW personae will act and what they will say and how they see love will be very different from ho people from Earth in 2002 will. Open your mind, it'll be easier then.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commander Bond Posted August 2, 2002 Share Posted August 2, 2002 What the hell? Here is the fact: people who star in AOTC are really bad actors/actresses. All apart from Christopher Lee, who does a great job with Scaramanga... whoops, wrong film... Count Dooku, the man with the Golden Gun... whoops again... Rapier lightsaber. May the Walther PPK be with you... whoops for the last time... Force. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ET Warrior Posted August 2, 2002 Share Posted August 2, 2002 actually....that's an opinion...not a fact. This is a fact Ewan macgregor is an accomplished actor, as is natalie portman, as is hayden christensen, as is sam jackson. So apparently they ARENT really bad.

Darth_spidey Posted August 21, 2002 Share Posted August 21, 2002 ARE YOU ALL STUPID?!?!?!?! STAR WARS ISN'T ABOUT GOOD ACTING! IT NEVER HAS BEEN! It is all about sci-fi it is the greatest sci-fi series ever. GL doesn't try to get nominees for best actor, he doesn't care about that, he knows he is going to make hundreds of millions on any movie he makes, no matter how crappy. And when you go to see a star wars movie you don't go to see it for the acting! You go to see it for the special effects, lightsabers, and natalie portman! DUH!

Weapon X Posted August 21, 2002 Share Posted August 21, 2002 the acting was great, the script was great, as stated before anakin and padme only had at the most a week to build up their relationship while han and leia had years, the love scenes were basically what AOTC was supposed to be about, that and the creation of the clone army, acting in star wars has always been great, every one of the main actors is in another major movie(i don't know for sure about hayden christinsian though) so you can't say they're terrible actors, if you're just gonna complain about the movie then complain to yourself and quit trying to get a rise out of all of us who actually like star wars and don't watch the movie except for the big arena battle cuz that's what AOTC was all about :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is all about sci-fi it is the greatest sci-fi series ever. /B] And what makes it great is story, and the story doesn't work if the actors are unable to convey it properly. Thus, it IS about decent acting. Maybe not oscar-level acting, but decent acting. Kryllith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mima kake Posted August 21, 2002 Author Share Posted August 21, 2002 I will give you an example of bad acting or directing When Anakin falls of the speeder during the city chase sequense,(befor he meets obi-wan at the club) take a look how he stands up after that fall, it looks pretty terrible the way Anakin stands up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sivy Posted August 21, 2002 Share Posted August 21, 2002 I too much of a star wars fan to sneek out all the mistakes and I don't have any complaint about the acting. It doesn't take anything away from the story and the acting has never been why people love star wars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ET Warrior Posted August 21, 2002 Share Posted August 21, 2002 Hmmmm, anakin falls off of the speeder, gets up, looks hurt, winces, then sees zam getting away, and thinks S***, can't let her get away! so he runs after her....i saw absolutely nothing wrong with it atall......

I mean Jedis use the force but they do feel pain. Would you have rather him got up and yell 5 minutes of oscar calibur dialog at zam wessel?

AgentSmith Posted August 22, 2002 Share Posted August 22, 2002 That'd be something. *Zam Wessell running athletically while still being able to deliver dialogue in an Oscar winning fashion.* Zam Wessell: 'Padawan you jest! Thy young masculen legs beeth tired from thy fall and their flesh bruised as were crushed soft grapes in summer.' Anakin: 'Thy foul creature that besiegeth the purse of thy whealthy lords for sucheth a crime as being it death and murder! I will pursue thee and empale thee on my nobleth sword of pure light so bright!' Zam Wessell: 'Sport with me no longer, in this establishement of decrepid creatures who stoopeth as low to ground as I thee will not see me with thy eyes. As if it were a moonless night as black as the depths of hell!' Anakin: 'It is thou who jest! Soon as buttefly wings that flap in the glee of the sun thou whilst be my prisoner helpless and of mind to tell the tale of thee acts most foul and crude.' *Zam disappears into the Outlander club.* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
