Just got back from Episode II - *NO SPOILERS*
 

Firstly,
DO NOT POST SPOILERS IN THIS THREAD!

Right, just got back from the 12:05am showing of Episode II and I thought it was very good. Definitely better than Phantom Menace.

However, it does drag a tad in the middle, and sometimes it seems a little all over the place. What do I mean by all over place? Consider the classic trilogy, each film had three main segments - AOTC seems to have a lot more which makes things a little confusing.

There are also some badly acted parts to the film, but hey - that's expected from a Star Wars film!

On the positive side though, there were some great action sequences and effects. Plus the story, and characters, really develops in ATOC, and as a consequence makes Phantom Menace a better film.

Anyway, I'm knackered - got to get up for work in... aaaaargh!... 4 hours!

On a final note... Natalie Portman - what an absolute honey she is! ;)

So c'mon people, share you verdict - but please, no spoilers!

All I can think of to say really is..... WoO!!

Glad to hear that it turned out pretty good. Though, I probably won't see it until a week from now or something.

I have to admit, I was really impressed!

Mind you, 'ol george could have made any old film and it would have been better than episode I !

It was an absolute fantastic movie, sure there was kinks in the armour but overall it had some soon to be classic moments and in my opinion its a worthy addition to the series.

Go see it. NOW.

I heard that it was awsome, and I am going to nite to see it

I'm gonna go sometime next week...

And yes I agree Spank...Natalie Portman...hubba hubba! :laugh:

I just got back from AOTC. There were some slow parts like Spank said, but once the action kicks in look out. I really enjoyed it. What truly made me smile was......Yoda. (Those who saw it know what I mean).

Yeah, Yoda was so cool :D.

What really surprised me was the whole atmosphere in the cinema. I've never been to a movie where so many people were cheering and laughing together. Usually (in Glasgow especially) people are quite introvert, but it was a special night.

BTW, I got interviewed by my local TV news station and I was so nervous! My friends mum videotaped it and she says its housework for me or she'll show all my friends the embarrising evidence LOL !:laugh:

episode 2 reminds me a lot of the original films in feeling . it was goodly . very much empire strikes back to my mind . then again i was fever ill when i saw it . so i might have been hallucinating or something . maybe i didn't see it at all .

eeeeeeek


no . i did . but i must see it again .

being at the cinema at midnight was really odd though .

I really loved the midnight atmosphere. Everyone was in their Star Wars costumes, everybody was cheering and laughing and stuff. It was just a much better feeling than the other showings.

BTW, I've seen it twice now.

that movie was awsome, and Yoda rules

Man, I can't wait to see it....I'm going on wednesday.....and to get ready, I watched all the previous movies!!! CLASSICS!!

It was a good idea to watch again the first Trilogy. If you don't have a good memory like me, it's helpful to notice a lot of details connected with the new movie :D

I agree with Fortune.
My memory is great so I remembered more refrences to the first three than my freind who had bought and seen the dvd the night before. You'll really appreciate it a lot more if you know that stuff. Yup, Yoda is the man..er...........jedi thingy! He rules.
2 years to go for Episode III. Can't wait to see the Dark Side take full control over Anakin. He'll be unstoppable! heh heh
