I think they needed to get someone else besides Samuel L. Jackson. The guy is in too many movies and his characters get overridden by him. It’s like watching Harrison Ford in a movie.
BTW my daughter was working at Longs on Ashwood and this man asked her if she could take the video back and she looked up and it was Harrison Ford.

Was Mark Hamil in any of the first three prequells?

exactly, luke truly learned the ways of the force, instead of just being talented and thinking that’s enough. i might be totally buff, but that doesn’t mean i can fight.

That probably wouldn’t have worked since they were showing that Anakin was unable to control his emotions as well as Luke eventually learned to, that was a big part of the plot.

P.S. – I think your comment got caught in the moderation filter because you said “teenage”. heh

At least Luke was a whiner long before he was ever trained as a Jedi. It was typical teenage behavior. Note the marked change in demeanor from 4 to 6. Anakin was a whiny fool while being accepted into the Jedi Counsel, hard to believe coming from a young man with his skill and power. I would of expected a more brooding, conniving reaction.

There weren’t a lot of “lame” parts (in my opinion) in the original trilogy; I liked it a lot.

If there were any criticisms to be made, I would say that they are generally the same as those for the prequels: poor acting and script (the lines themselves, not the story). Also, I never really liked the whole cutesy Ewok thing, which is why I see a big correlation between that and the Jar Jar fiasco of episode 1. Both were done for probably the same purpose, and I won’t let them ruin the rest of the movie(s) for me, even if I personally didn’t like that part very much.

I don’t really want to ask anyone to do to much work but if you can pick some things off the top of your head, what would consider the lamest parts of the old trilogy?

By the way thanks for letting me vent. It’s been therapeutic. I haven’t been able to tell any blinded Star Wars fans to there face how much the the movie sucked and since I’m generally a confrontational person I had to find an outlet.

I also affirm your right to like these lousy movies. I just have a sinking feeling you’re lying to yourselves.
