This link is to the review by redlettermedia. I cannot insert it as a youtube video because then it overwrites the below one for some reason.
I agreed on some of the parts regarding plot holes and retcons (those are my pet peeves), but I believe the majority of the view is biased movie snobbage, particularly the comments about lack of characterization and emotion, and the idea that CGI destroyed the novelty and believability of Star Wars.
For example the guy says that obi wan didnt get mad enough or something, and the "boring" beautifully choreographed lightsaber battles were diminished from emotion and interest. I think there was just as much emotion in the battle against Maul as any other in the series. When Qui-Gon died, I cared for the character and so felt for him. When Obi-Wan said "NOOOO", I felt his rage as he barrelled out of the hallway in an explosive flurry.
Im not going to be wasting my time defending the prequels when someone has already done it for me:
Dont ask me where part one is. I have no idea.
I was pretty surprised when I heard all the hate against Star Wars prequels. I wonder how many other people will be when they see this.
Before someone stupid gets mad at Spock, it's yet another quote from Aliens.
The weird thing is that I didn't even have time to blink before I recognized that line.
Well that's great, that's just fuckin' great, man. Now what the fuck are we supposed to do? We're in some real pretty shit now man.
(Bill had some of the best lines in the picture.)
The next Star Wars film needs 2 things: Bill Paxton and James Cameron. To clarify: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j01R_8vXZEc
Thank the great pumpkin that link went to Aliens!! 'Cause, well, you know, Paxton...Cameron..titanic...
I was preparing to fall of my chair!
That he did...
The next great SF movie quote [not his]....
This landing could get interesting...
Define interesting....
Oh God Oh God we're going to die? ...
Had to include this one....
Conversely, I've got a bad feeling about this.
*is off to watch Aliens now..Thanks Jafo!*
Jenette Goldstein kicked ass as Vasquez. Who would have guessed the tough Vasquez was actually a nice little Jewish girl from Beverly Hills? She shows up again in Terminator 2 as young John Conner's foster parent who talks to Arnold on the phone. Apparently Goldstein now owns a lingerie store that specializes in D cup bras.
"Wolfie's fine. Wolfie's just fine...WHERE ARE YOU!"Always seemed to me she slipped into Vasquez mode for the last part of the sentence...
She never really did much else, was she in Star Trek at one point???
I bet she gets customers coming in..."Do i look like a man in this?"
Sure did....like the female pilot in Avatar ....
She was in Max Headroom....I'll have to have another squiz at that.....
My mom would be so proud if I hooked up with that.
But yes, Firefly and Serenity also had some great lines.
Inara Serra: Mal, what are you doing here? Capt. Malcolm Reynolds: You invited me. Inara Serra: I never thought for a second you'd be stupid enough to come! Capt. Malcolm Reynolds: Well that makes you a tease.
Ah, Michelle Rodriguez
She aint pretty, but she sure is the sexiest woman on the planet.
She's not the mot beautiful, but she's not bad. The ass kicking does help balance it out. And I prefer her in Battle: Los Angeles.
I'll have to watch Battle:LA again. i do recall being pleasantly surprised by the movie, but remember little else.
Drakkjacht, yes yes yes. Loved Firefly/Serenity. Stoopid FOX...plus Morena Baccarin...need we say more?
I was a Jewel Staite fan. Cute mechanic with a little softness to her always worked for me.
Doesn't that violate forum SFW rules?
'SFW'?
