C-3PO thinks Star Wars Episode 7 will be better than Empire Strikes Back! - Polidicks

[QUOTE=No Party Hats;46414875]Its sad people still believe the PT was pure cg. In reality it qas very little cg, hell it had more intricate models and sets than the OT at points[/QUOTE] Episode 1 had some practical effects, but the other two were mostly CGI

Bold words, we'll see if they ring true, since it's probably a tall order to beat the originals. Not so much a tall order to beat the prequel trilogy, but if the sequel trilogy can beat that then things are still alright.

I hope they've got an interesting story planned out, and not just a small story made for children dragged out for 3 movies with unnecessary action scenes.

I'd like a new, gritty star wars series with a more serious tone to it. Like this [url]http://imgur.com/gallery/rNPff[/url]

[QUOTE=proch;46415892]I'd like a new, gritty star wars series with a more serious tone to it. Like this [url]http://imgur.com/gallery/rNPff[/url][/QUOTE] That sounds horrible. I like the llight heartened hopefulness of Starwars. Why would I want a movie about the people of starwars when what pulled me in was the expansive universe full of different aliens and cultures. Human's are boring.

We already got gritty Star Wars. It's called Republic Commando.

I am still pissed that Star Wars 1313 never became a thing.

As long as it's better than Return of the Jedi I'm happy.

Episode 1 is legitimately my favorite an i dont giv a fuk

[QUOTE=General J;46420454]Episode 1 is legitimately my favorite an i dont giv a fuk[/QUOTE] People give it a lot of shit, but I think it's a fun movie, sans jar-jar.

[QUOTE=Black;46415504] not just a small story made for children dragged out for 3 movies with unnecessary action scenes.[/QUOTE] The PT isn't as bad as people make it out to be. Hell the whole premise of the prequels was to fill in loose ends left in the OT. The inclusion of politics and allusions to historical events as an allegorical extension is one example in my opinion that the PT isn't entirely kid focused/shit. Sure, they could have been better, but they're not as horrendous as they're made out to be by people who look at the OT through rose tinted goggles. Also IMO, ROTS is a bit more well done than ROTJ.

Like this [url]http://imgur.com/gallery/rNPff[/url][/QUOTE] I'm all for more character depth and less cartoonish villains in Star Wars, but turning it into a copy of the rebooted Battlestar Galactica is completely against its tone and spirit. Even at its darkest (I'm not counting the EU cause it is poorly written at best), Star Wars still had adventure and idealism at its core, and I think the reason people got jaded on adventure and idealism in Star Wars was because it was so badly done in the prequels. If the world today is so cynical that it can't accept Star Wars without draping it in gritty grimdark pathos where everyone screws over everyone else and all sides of the conflict are morally bankrupt, I'd rather not see any new Star Wars material at all.

[QUOTE=thrawn2787;46412044]It isn't just some. It is literally every leak. While not every leak is true there is no way nothing has leaked from this film redsoxrock were you never held as a child or something [editline]4th November 2014[/editline] Fett was cool design but there is literally no character there. I'd be fine if he never appeared in another star wars movie ever again. Make a new mando character with no ties to him[/QUOTE] You seem very upset not everyone shares your opinion.

Superman is dead now, this is the chance to get someone [I]serious[/I]. i mean none of those images there are nearly half as ugly as a copy of Ultimate Warrior but you get what i mean. although it is arguably more complex in terms of setting i feel it's borne way more out of a sense of opposition to the prequels rather than actually wanting to work with star wars
