i also seen all of the 1936-1940 DVD sets of flash gordon (3 of those) and 1 buck rogers set.
@least those people knew it was time to ham it up. but acting in 1-6 didn't even have any fun at all. no hamming it up.
it's actually not just TPM, i take my time w/music too. i'll listen to it a dozen times just to prove that it sux and i qualify myself as an expert of that music to say that it sux ;).
i, like ben osborne, had SO much invested in it because i just came off of the 1997 re-release highs. i never...
i have to chip in here. i saw TPM in the theaters for 16 full times =). and perhaps hundreds of times after when i bought the collector's item widescreen VHS + the eventual DVD.
i can safely say that it is no good. i mean, i wanted to like it so badly that i spent so much time&money invested in...
hey guys, NO ONE watched The Clone Wars? i expected some reviews to pop up here @least since it is saga material ;).
yeah i know there's a separate thingy in the tv/movie sections but i'm 2lazy to click over there :laugh:
when the clone wars trailer came up i heard collective groans from not jus the parents... but under 10 year old KIDZ!!! who is the AUDIENCE!?!?!?!?!? lulz.
anyways, trekkies/ers have experienced this many times over already =D. welcome to the club guys =D.
re: ray's feelings. i find ur lack of faith disturbing ;).
it's back to what i posted previously, just like star trek, star wars fans will feel franchise fatigue even now.
u can already buy 3D displays:
Newegg.com - iZ3D H220Z1 Black 22" 5ms DVI Widescreen 3D Gaming LCD Monitor 250 cd/m2 700:1 - Retail
so bring on IMAX Beowulf 3-D and whatever titles they are coming up with next in 3-D. i would imagine we'd get OLED/HDR (1million:1 contrast ratio) AND 3-D 1080p+...
well, it doesn't stop us from being fans... but casual SW fans will be turned off like those casual bond/trek fans.
these similar sentiments were echoed by trek fans during the height of trek's success in the early 90's. u had trek6, TNG, DS9 out and VOY coming, ST generations movie, etc. yet...
just doin' me part to revive this thread :D
personally i think SW will suffer franchise fatigue similar to bond towards the late 80s, trek now. there was 2much new trek and bond @one point. i think there'll be "2much" SW from clone wars onwards.
lol, what was it that lucas said about another movie on the big screen? :laugh:
i know i know live action vs. animated... but still. u have to admit, he's totally untrustworthy. first he said 9 episodes, then 6, then never again, and here we are.
i think lucas views these films as pulpy serials like buck rogers from space in the 1939 serial (which i've seen). i think he purposely tells the "method actors" to tone it down to pulp @these times. it's not supposed to be that serious... unfortunately, he doesn't take it all the way INTO the...
you don't have to use it, it's just another tool to help you =P. every parent has different thresholds on what is appropriate for their kid. the parents themselves ultimately makes the choice. just giving you parents extra tools =P.
if you want to "kidproof" a movie, here's an excellent resource:

it gives you the lowdown on whether body parts/verbal jokes are told, etc. there you go =P.
or TotalHD thingy that has several layers combined of both HD DVD+Blu-Ray.
direct DL will be idiotic unless they offer us Blu-Ray ISO's for us to burn.
that's why i framed the question like that. i knew only single guys could buy stuff like that. the wife will force those replicas into the basement or storage elsewhere or worse... selling it.:laugh:. maybe you can take it out of storage to showoff for a party... but even if she's a huge SW nut...
that's pretty interesting article about kidz not liking SW as much. i think it's not JUST SW, it's the kidz attitudes towards film. prior to VHS, DVD and whatever we have today, "cinema", "film" commanded respect. nowadays, it's JUST another distraction. does this mean that classics will slowly...
