As long as they kill the frogcreature the instant the movie begins, it's going to be fine with me. Otherwise I'll be a critic from ****!

Well, having saw the trailors for it last X-mas (Thank you Morpheus), I can say this one just might give some credibitly back to the franchise, if they kill off Jar-Jar...

i have definitely been curious as to what they will do with jar jar. they can't just not have him in there, btu how will they write him off?
i think yoda should kill him.
actually that is the one thing iwant to see more than anything, is yoda whipping soem butt. some sort of lightning effect like the emperor had in return of the jedi

Just my 2 cents. I think its dead. It's over blown to begin with, though it was a good series.
As the plot get progressivly worse, G Luca will just throw in bigger and better FX until the average person is so dazzled by the shiny things that they happily through money into his pocket.

Now that I know it's name, I can find allies against the vile cretin. See here . Seems more people than me want him dismembered.  
I especially like the "EVIL SATANIC..." link.

I think its in the third one where Anakin becomes Vader. Its also another excuse to use the imperial march!

Yes but we get to see him go bad in the second.
However not being a big Star Wars fan, I'll wait for the DVD.

| | There’s something about a Star Wars film that beats the cynicism out of me. As much as I hate Jar-Jar, as incredibly corny as the series is, the moment I see a lightsaber onscreen the fanboy within me takes over and I’m spell bound. Seeing all those Jedi fighting in that coliseum, watching Anakin wield two lightsabers… I was sold. This is going to be a kick ass year for me. Spiderman, Episode II, and the Two Towers! http://www.wizards.com/community/ima...mlins/jump.gif For those who missed it, you can find the new trailer, Clone War here .

Yeah, Spider-man, Episode II and Two Towers... back to the big screen for me!

Fancy costumes, overtop CGI effects and no plot.

Spiderman, Episode II, and the Two Towers! | I realy am not looking forward to Spiderman. IMO, Toby Maguire is one of the wimpiest actors in Hollywood, and William Defoe is just creepy.
I know what you mean. When I saw episode 1, the day it came out, second showing, I wasn't expecting a great movie,but my heart was beating so much in the 5 seconds of silence between "A long, long time ago" and "Star Wars". Those 5 seconds IMO were the best part of the movie. Just the anticipation of the continuation of the most succesful series of all times, and then it starts: "Twentieth century fox", then "Lucas films" then "A long, long time ago" and then, finaly "STAR WARS Episode I - the phantom Menace" with the amazing theme- I'm out of words to describe it.
I think its funny that Christopher Lee, who a year ago was just an old actor who played drakula, a James Bond villain and a few other things, is all of a sudden transformed into an acomplished actor, who is the bad guy in 4 of the most anticipated movies in the coming years! (LoTR and Star Wars)
I am not 100% sure he is the bad guy in Star wars, but I think if he has an alter ego, a Darth before his name, and his name is Tyranus- its pretty obvious. In imdb he is credited as Count Dooku/Darth Tyranus .

Okay so Fu Manchu wasn't great, but it does show a certain diversity.
I will have to look for a link to our Episode 1 Thread, it is so funny
