kegtapr Posted November 10, 2004 Posted November 10, 2004 PM Darin. 110603[/snapback] Ummmm ok I've been watching videos at the maxim magazine member lounge for the past hour. Ahhhh, the benefits of membership. Plus, now I get to sleep on the couch tonight!
The Poojer Posted November 10, 2004 Posted November 10, 2004 not a star wars fan, saw the trailer before "the incredibles", i was very unimpressed by the theatre version of the trailer,but again, not a fan
Mark Vader Posted November 10, 2004 Posted November 10, 2004 AWESOME!!! The flashback of the first Star Wars film tied into this!!! Hearing James Earl Jones' voice again!!! The wookie army!!! Anakin fighting Obi-Wan!!! Palpatine with a lightsaber!!! FANTASTIC!!!! And they still have not shown us any footage with General Grievous or Count Dooku!!! Let the anticipation begin!!!!
Lori Posted November 10, 2004 Posted November 10, 2004 Ah, Pennsyltucky... 110583[/snapback] His part of Northern Appalachia, not mine. We had Powerlink before Buffalo did. (of course, that was when Adelphia Worldwide HQ was still here..... )
Hollywood Donahoe Posted November 10, 2004 Posted November 10, 2004 Hearing James Earl Jones' voice again!!! Interesting thing about that, there's a possibility it's not actually him. Sounds crazy, but consider this: 1 - James Earl Jones has stated recently (well after the teaser would've been completed) that he has not yet been contacted about doing voice work for Episode III. and: 2 - many true hardcore Star wars geeks have noticed that the inflection of the Vader line in the trailer (specifically, the "er" in "master") sounds far more like the actor who plays Anakin than it sounds like Jones. They're right. Listen to Jones say "master" in TESB and ROTJ, and then listen to Anakin say it in AOTC. That said, it could just be a discarded line from Episode V or VI. But it's still something interesting to think about.

Sounds crazy, but consider this: 1 - James Earl Jones has stated recently (well after the teaser would've been completed) that he has not yet been contacted about doing voice work for Episode III. and: 110858[/snapback] I heard that too. And I also heard that he was under "orders" from Lucas not to disclose his work on the film. Who knows, it is Lucas (very paranoid). I am just pumped for this movie:)
Talonz Posted November 10, 2004 Posted November 10, 2004 One thing that really worries me about this movie is that they have MUCH ground to cover in 2 - 2.5 hours. Hec, they could just make a movie about the events surrounding Anakin turning into Darth Vader instead of 5+ major events that happen in a large time span - ( Jedis being hunted down and destroyed, the empire + the rebellion forming, Anakins turn to the dark side, the starship Rosen that injured him * I am fairly certain that it is the Rosened ship on fire shown in the clip - The one with the water ship pumping it with water * , Amidala pregnet, etc . )

PhilsBills Posted November 10, 2004 Posted November 10, 2004 The wookie army looks really cool. I can't wait to see this one....
Hollywood Donahoe Posted November 10, 2004 Posted November 10, 2004 ...Anakins turn to the dark side, the starship Rosen that injured him * I am fairly certain that it is the Rosened ship on fire shown in the clip - The one with the water ship pumping it with water *.... Anakin receives his injuries from his duel with Obi-Wan, not a shipwreck. And the fiery starship seen in the trailer is from early in the film (after the reportedly AWESOME opening space battle). (EDIT: Sorry to sound like a know-it-all, but the entire plot leaked last October, so I'm as spoiled as you can get.)
todd Posted November 10, 2004 Posted November 10, 2004 http://starwars.com/I rarely post OT, but this is a must see.... 110501[/snapback] It looks scary. Hopefully it will be more like Empire Strikes Back, which is clearly the best one. Also looks like Lucas may have taken some lessons from Peter Jackson, which would be a good thing.
R. Rich Posted November 10, 2004 Posted November 10, 2004 It looks scary. Hopefully it will be more like Empire Strikes Back, which is clearly the best one. Also looks like Lucas may have taken some lessons from Peter Jackson, which would be a good thing. 111117[/snapback] Yeah todd, I agree: Empire is clearly the best of the 5 movies to date. Peter Jackson is awesome! I am SO looking forward to his remake of the 1933 King Kong, a project that has been in the works for many years (he got involved in that BEFORE the LOTR trilogy). It should be great.
sidbuff Posted November 10, 2004 Posted November 10, 2004 THAT LOOKS GREAT.... I remember when my dad took me to go C STAR WARS when it first came out in the theaters. The whole Star Wars Chronicles is something I will cherish for a lifetime
TheMadCap Posted November 10, 2004 Author Posted November 10, 2004 Anakin receives his injuries from his duel with Obi-Wan, not a shipwreck.

(EDIT: Sorry to sound like a know-it-all, but the entire plot leaked last October, so I'm as spoiled as you can get.) 111098[/snapback] Looks like you and I have found a subject we pretty much agree totally on! It has been known for some years that Vader recieves his injuries in a final duel with Obi-wan involving a volcano. I particularly like the scavanger robots, kind of like the droidekas that presumably go to retrieve the charred body of Anakin...
PromoTheRobot Posted November 10, 2004 Posted November 10, 2004 I am highly skeptical. The last two movies STUNK OUT LOUD! Every movie since the first one got progressively worse. Why should I expect a masterpiece now? Lucas = big budget BOMBS! PTR
