LiMP RABBiT Posted November 2, 2002 Share Posted November 2, 2002 Now there are star wars films a plenty, which is your overall favourite. Mine is probably The Return of the Jedi. I love the end space battle and everything. Attack of the Clones was an original episode and was quite pleasing, especially the final battle. Sooo many lightsabers.

Lateralis Posted November 2, 2002 Share Posted November 2, 2002 Empire Strikes Back - it has everything, and is so well directed. It also includes my favourite line in a film EVER. "Do...or do not. There is no try." - Yoda. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Count Dooku 2 Posted November 3, 2002 Share Posted November 3, 2002 "Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones." Could there be a better movie? I didn't think so... it's the best for three simple facts: 1: Count Dooku, the best movie villain played by the best ever actor, is first shown in AOTC. More in "Episode III", please! 2: Yoda fights with his lightsaber. "Amazing, I think this sequence is! Got a chance to kick butt, I did!" 3: The Fett family getting a decent storyline after all those years of mystery. Plus Jango Fett revealing what all those weapons on the Mandalorian armour did. All the other films are 99.99% perfect, but (in my opinion) AOTC is 100% perfect, and beats the other films by a fraction. I just hope "Episode III" will live up to the standards set... I'm thinking it will! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sivy Posted November 3, 2002 Share Posted November 3, 2002 well i love them all, they're my favorite films of all time, but if you put a gun to my head I would say 1. Ep II 2. Ep V 3. Ep I 4. Ep VI 5. Ep IV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LiMP RABBiT Posted November 8, 2002 Author Share Posted November 8, 2002 Hmm. In order of supreme superbness, id say: 1.Empire (6) 2.Attack of the Clones (2) 3.New Hope (4) 4.Return of the Jedi (5) 5.Menace (1) Empire has every element but Clone wars has the best action sequences ever.

Rogue15 Posted November 8, 2002 Share Posted November 8, 2002 here's my list of favorites form most to least: AOTC TPM ESB ROTJ ANH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jedi_Monk Posted November 8, 2002 Share Posted November 8, 2002 Right now, it's a tie between Clones and Empire, but I've got a feeling that Episode III will bump them both a spot. A movie so dark that Lucas is afraid nobody will like it We do love to see our heroes get screwed over, don't we? On another note, I was watching RotJ last night... it was a movie that was very close to greatness but somehow fell way short. It didn't give us anything really new, in terms of planets and settings. We got Tatooine again (blast, I hate Tatooine! All it is is sand... "It's rough and coarse and it gets everywhere..."), and saw a California redwood forest. Got some terrible acting bits (Luke telling Leia that she's his sister is about the lowest point in the SW saga for me, really. Jar Jar Binks cannot compare to the terrible acting and gross connotation of Leia saying "Somehow, I've always known"... THEN WHY DID YOU FRENCH HIM, PRINCESS?!) and some very rushed exposition. Not to mention the Ewoks, who are the freakiest little buggers I've ever seen! They're little teddybears come to life and become cannibals! They're a race of Chuckies! No doubt about it, everything that happens in the Emperor's throne room in RotJ is pure gold, but that's about all RotJ had going for it. 1.AotC 1.ESB 2.ANH 3.TPM 4.RotJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Count Dooku 2 Posted November 8, 2002 Share Posted November 8, 2002 I, too, loved the scenes inside the Emperor's throne room. It's Ian McDiarmid: he is perfect as Palpatine, and is great in both the original trilogy and the prequels. However, I must ask, Jedi_Monk: why place "The Phantom Menace" so low in your ranking? I know nearly everyone else feels the same, but what is wrong with Episode I? I thought it was amazing, and a brilliant film to either stand alone or start off the Star Wars saga. Why is the film so bad (apart form Jar-Jar Binks, because he is just there for the kids)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Gnarly Posted November 9, 2002 Share Posted November 9, 2002 EPISODE 1 Was the best cause you got see everyone develop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiMP RABBiT Posted November 9, 2002 Author Share Posted November 9, 2002 No offense but Ep. 1 stank, big time. For me it was the lack of backgrounds to all the characters. In the original trilogy, you saw to sides, Darth Vador and Luke, to really powerful characters. In Ep. 1, 2 random people waring cloaks were fighting some horned guy who had the misfortune of falling face first into a can of red and black paint. You just didn't feel connected to it. In Empire you had the whole, I'm so incredible good and I don't want to kill you dad but, well, youre just so darn evil, thing going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Gnarly Posted November 9, 2002 Share Posted November 9, 2002 well now that you put it that way i agree.....i just liked seeing Qui-Gon jinn he's cooler then yoda in my opinion:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiMP RABBiT Posted November 10, 2002 Author Share Posted November 10, 2002 How dare you. Have you not seen Yoda in Ep. 2. He is the supreme master of all things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JediNyt Posted November 10, 2002 Share Posted November 10, 2002 Just cause you dont like kids or gungans doesnt mean ep1 sucked. It was great. Even though your entitled to your own opinion. Dont go with what Hollywood and critics and pop culture says. They are full of poodu. GL is one of the best. If his type of movies dont appeal to you then fine. Dont impose on the good fans here. Im making a generalized statement not directed at anyone in particular.

Count Dooku 2 Posted November 10, 2002 Share Posted November 10, 2002 You go, JediNyt! Personally, I loved "The Phantom Menace", and even Jar-Jar Binks grew on me after a time. A good, solid plotline (finding the chosen one), great characters (Qui-Gon Jinn, Darth Maul, Padme Amidala), brilliant battle scenes (Lightsaber duels, large-scale ground battles, space battles, pod races, Jedi versus Droids and stealth infiltration of the Royal Palace) and talented actors (Liam Neeson, Ewan McGregor, Ian McDiarmid) make the film near-perfect, and a worthy addition to the Star Wars saga. People may say TPM sucked, but I loved it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LiMP RABBiT Posted November 12, 2002 Author Share Posted November 12, 2002 Yes a well, um yeah. I was hoping you wouldn't pick that up. My actual favourite was Return of the Jedi but for some reason a small pygmy jumped on my keyboard while I was typing that message and pounded the keys with his little fists. I dived for the backspace key but he was faster and hit enter before i could stop him. As for the fact that it is highly unlikely that a pygmy hitting random keys would actually spell all the names of the star wars films correctly, i can only say he was a very lucky little pygmy. Satisfied? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wehutti Posted November 21, 2002 Share Posted November 21, 2002 My favourite is The Phantom Menace, because I like the battle between Gungans and Trade Federation. I like Jar Jar's and the battle droid's voice. And the pod racers were good too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
