I can't hardly wait to see AOTC's. I'm SO exited, I've calculated that, as of Midnight, there will be 408 hrs. until Midnight, May 16th. I have no life.
 
You know, that's really pathetic. Sad. Depressing.

(I'm right there with you. Even after The Phantom Menace, I"m jacked to see the new one....)
 
At least you aren't wearing a tux made from Star Wars bed sheets on Hollywood Blvd. right now.
 
or you haven't been waiting in line at The Cinerama since Jan 1st....they have moved to the parking lot and have a van now...cheaters!
 
I just about peed my pants seeing the latest trailer online.

OMG! You normally like see one, maybe two jedi with lightsabers out. Looks we are gonna get our fill on this one!

The story looks better too. I love that actor that plays Obi-Wan, I can never remember his name, very good actor IMHO.

Everything I've heard about it is good, very little negative. I can't wait!

Those people standing in line at the Mann Theater are TOO insane,(even for me.) I plan on getting a presale ticket, so, I can go to the movie at 11:45, and, still get in. I learned my lesson at LOTR's, when I had to stand in line for 45 minutes, freezing my ass off.

I lost my lightsaber. So, it looks like I'll have to go to this one as myself. I'll feel so naked. You're thinking of Ewan McGregor.

Ah, that's it. And that kid playing Anakin seems to pull it off well, got some angst and charm to him. I think Portman is just a hottie myself.
 
i made my own lightsaber out of PVC pipe and elecrical tape. single and double one, too. brought both up here to AK. i feel i should do some repairs (made 'em several years ago) soon.

AND BOTH ARE PURPLE, GAWDDAMNIT!

:D
 
Weird how this seems to be coming out so soon...hard to believe the Phantom menace came out like 2 years ago...feels like 2 days and if it wasn't for the coard I'd have no idea its coming out.

I'm gonna see it but before that...Spider-Man!

I know what you mean Glammy, like yesterday. Such a disappointment that was too, Episode I. Liam Nielson made me ill with his patronizing manner and tone.

Spidey does look good too. "You're not superman you know"

LOL :D
 
don't be fooled by any of the trailers and shots of the Anakin/Tyranis(sp?) fight.

Yoda is the real action hero of the film.

and i'm dead serious.

You know...I've heard some thingd about that...he moves around quicker? Can you imagine Yoda with a lightsaber...I suppose he wouldn't need one. The Emporer didn't have one, just shot out shit from his fingers.
 
Great, some Star Wars geeks. I have a question. A friend of mine was telling me about the movie, and I wanted to know why it is there are only two Sith Lords at any given time. Can anyone field this for me?

Balance of power? That's the only answer I have.
 
The Sith:

there are only two to a group b/c the Sith are not a very friendship-oriented group. there are definently more than two out roaming (or hiding in) the galaxy at one time, that's a definent. however, few, if any, pose a risk, and most are not really sith, just Force sensitive beings that have gone unnoticed and turned to the Dark Side. better than 90% of the Sith stay hidden all their lives, passing down their dark knowledge to their apprentices. also, since the end of the Golden Age of the Sith, the Jedi have been quite thourough in eliminating any Sith presence or traces they find.
 
Thank you Scylis. I knew this would be the sort of thing you know. Thanks for clearing that up.
 
I, actually liked Ep. 1. Yes, it could of been better,(less Jar Jar, more character development,)but, it's a beginning. I've heard numerous things that say this one things start kicking into high gear. I've also heard that in Ep.3

James Earl Jones returns as Darth.
 
Yoda has a lightsaber. the handle is under 7 inches long, with a blade of about...two feet, i'd say, based on pictures i've seen. he doesn't NEED it, but he still has one. IMHO, i believe it's a keepsake from the days when he did need one. that and it's a great can opener! it's more of a tool than a weapon.

well, he'd have to, wouldn't he? Obi-Wan fights him and he gets knocked into a pit of lava. they have to at least SHOW him after he takes a dip, and they BETTER have him talk.
 
Did you catch the new footage when Fox broadacst Empire, THurs.? They have more footage from Clones when Fox aires Jedi & Menace.

I didn't know whether or not to believe that rumor. I guess it isn't a rumor.
