    Lucas also wanted to make all those changes he wanted. Like Han not shooting first.

    He wanted to surpass James Cameron's Titanic. I think he did, at least in the bad writing department.

    Yeah, some of the dialogue is bad - you can type this stuff, but you can't say it, as the actors complained.

    They're the new Ewoks. They're called Porgs.

    Ewoks were better.

    Also was Episode 2 really that bad? I must be one of the few people who have never seen it yet.

    It's boring. Really boring. Until the last quarter when people start fighting, then it gets somewhat bearable.

    The general rule with the prequels is that the action scenes are the highlights. Everything else is boring politics or bad world building or really bloody awful dialouge.

    Things like this make me question why we bothered to stop the black plague or Hitler...

    I'm sorry, no one not even George Fucking Lucas has seen this movie yet. They might be good guys, bad guys, worse than Jar Jar, cooler than Yoda, hell that might be the only time we see them in any of the movies.

    The girl who cuts my dad's hair has star wars tats she's mid 20s a total geek loves it, ok, not what I'd do, but she's seen all the movies, read the books etc, it's been a big part of her life... if you want to do it, your body by all means but fuck me, this is a kinda stupid that wants me to internet lumberjack myself and hide in the woods for 30+ years.

    So I recently watched Episode VII for the first time, and I have to say, it's easily as good as one of the prequels, but I wouldn't say it's better than any of them.

    Some of my favorite things about the prequels; Samuel L. Jackson and Christopher Lee, General Grievous in the Clone Wars, the action scenes, and the "Jar Jar is a sith lord theory".

    IIRC, he specifically asked for a purple lightsaber.

    Honestly I think the Clone Wars movie and TV show did the prequels better than the prequels
