It's nice to see that Revenge of the Sith isn't on the poll yet, even though it will apparently be better than all the ones on there now.

I think it's going to be better. But i'm not crazy. You don't put a movie up for voting, that nobody's seen.

By the way, I believe "your" is the word you wanted to use in the title.

You're = you are.
Your = possessive form of you.

Sample usage:
"You're bringing shame to your family and teachers by using such poor grammar."

They haven't made it yet... It's the one where Geroge Lucas get disembowled (slowly) for 1 hour 45 minutes and screams in agony on the silver screen for all to see and enjoy.

But personally I still think the first one.

Lucas said the new one is completely different than the other 5, it's highly emotional along the lines of Titanic (in space) is what he said.

anybody see the scene where darth vadar is hanging off the front of a death star shouting "I'm the king of the universe"?

or the one where he is drawing nude pictures of padme while she reclines back in a sand cruiser?

or the one where a withered old yoda is looking back on his life and then throws a large blue diamond down into the event horizon of a black hole?

Okay, change the name of title if you want. I don't care.

And I bet after Revenge of the Sith, all the people who voted for Empire Strikes Back, will change to Revenge of the Sith, because the reason they chose Empire Strikes Back is because they liked that darkness of it.

we liked it because it didn't suck.

i don't care how dark RotS is, crap is still crap.

time will tell though. maybe this one of the series won't blow, but i doubt it.

While you guys are giving macgeek2004 a hard time, I think it's only fair that we note that George Lucas is re-making the original trilogy like he said in a thread we quickly closed last week.

It is with great regret that we say our farewells to Jack, who passed away on May 28th, 2005. Jack, you will be missed by all

The empire strike back, is the best. No stupid teddy bears, or reptilians idiots around.

For the revenge of the sith, I expect that it will be beter than episode one and two (especially episode one, who was a sucker : I want to kill this Jabar thing non sense)

Of course, Titanic was *crap*...

A buddy of mine damned near received a standing ovation in the theatre when, as Leo slipped 'neath the icy waves, quietly muttered "Iceberg: 1, Bad Actor: nothing".

I'm glad that you are keeping your mind open. You will have one hell of a shock.

So..... you've seen it then.

The trailers look pretty good, and I'm sure it'll be an effect tour de force, but I really don't have much faith in Lucas as a storyteller anymore. A marketer, merchandizer, and overall corporate money-making machine, sure. But so is MS. *shrug* Not feeling the love from his films anymore.

I mean come on, comparing the quality of emotional interplay to Titanic??? That's just sad, coming from the same man who brought us THX-1138.

And you are doing the same too? I don't think calling it "kick ass" and "the best" before seeing the film -- much less after reading the "script" (note the quotes) -- qualifies as evidence of an open mind.

Hmm, I've never seen Titanic. Who knows, the movie may have been good, but I already knew the ending so what's the point of watching it?

I purposefully avoided seeing Titanic for years, because I hate mega-hype-movies. I eventually saw it on a pirated Thai VCD in Bangkok and it wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be.

Sith hopefully leaves me thinking the same thing. At the very least.

I believe I used the same excuse on Star Wars, I avoided Star Wars like the plague when it came out in fact I saw the first two in the months directly preceding the third one as they were reissued as part of the build up to the finale.

I only saw the first of the "new" Star Wars series and the first one was so awful I never even contemplated going to the second or the one about to come out.

Same goes for the reissues of the original trilogy, Lucas ruined those. Thank god I have the laser discs of the original three to share with my children.

As for Titanic, it was a great movie going experience. It was great on so many levels, to denigrate it just because it did big box office is foolish if not outright stupid.

The best being when Leo finally died and we didn't have to listen to him any more.

The effects were *pretty* good, but as we saw in Ep I, effects do not a movie make. (And a few of the 'easier' effects were just laughably bad.) The costuming was nice, and the attention to detail on the sets was great.

But story? Plot? Characterization? Acting? Meh.

Let's get back to trashing on Lucas.

Even though I voted for ESB as the best so far I have a very large soft spot for A New Hope. I still remember going to see "Star Wars" in the theater as a kid. That movie knocked my socks off and opened my mind to other possiblities.
