Guest web_norah Posted January 21 Report Share Posted January 21 as i said yesterday, most men are easily pleased (but complain all the time!) - ..........i agree with you there, the last two movies were a complete retard waist of time (and high grossing, sorta like Playboy magazine issues) :-X Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JMT Posted January 21 Report Share Posted January 21 Darth Tater is awesome.if i had a cousin still young enough i would buy it for him.you had to be an adventurous kid with imagination (or an adult who could still find his/her) to enjoy such a timeless magical story of good vs evil. too much for some people i guess. but the new ones dont even compare to the originals.

Guest web_norah Posted January 21 Report Share Posted January 21 right so those who think Starwars is shit, dont have imagination...uh-huh if you enjoy stories about good vs evil -read a book, that triggers more imaginative thinking, not some weird looking toy on-screen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JMT Posted January 21 Report Share Posted January 21 right so those who think Starwars is shit, dont have imagination...uh-huh if you enjoy stories about good vs evil -read a book, that triggers more imaginative thinking, not some weird looking toy on-screenits called enjoying your childhood, or temporarily reconnecting with it. yeah, read a book, no one enjoys movies anymore.sorry if you cant enjoy it, i guess you crash-landed on earth as a fully grown adult.

Guest web_norah Posted January 21 Report Share Posted January 21 which brings me back to...."i like Starwars and that means i got imagination and you had no childhood"......that's uber original.you needed a UFO flick to assist you with the imagination thought process. dude you're hardcore, i am telling you!

Guest JMT Posted January 21 Report Share Posted January 21 im hardcore? ok whatever you say.note: when you use quotes its supposed to contain exactly what a person said.yes, its true, i had imagination as a child and liked star wars. youre always grumpy and cynical, so i joke that you had no childhood. star wars a UFO flick? yeah, kinda like that comedy schindler's list.

Guest web_norah Posted January 21 Report Share Posted January 21 not liking Star Wars makes me grumpy - explain that oneit means i was probably not interested or mesmerized the way other people were.... (and as an adult, i still think it is overblown and dull, like the last two films). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tgibson Posted January 22 Report Share Posted January 22 It's a fantastic story...like Long of the Rings is a fantastic story. If you like fantasy, these movies will interest you...I am happy to line George Lucas' pockets if he continues to make these movies. Loved the old ones...the new (first) episodes are very good from a imagery perspective - the stuff they can do now is just sick - like legions of robo-armies, etc. They were even sucessful in making what is likely the most hated character in modern movie history.As for the potato head, I posted something about this a few days ago...I think it's a very funny looking toy - I laugh whenever I look at it... ;D That said, I was more of a Lego-kid myself...http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/050119/480/nyet25701191541 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
