Hmm, revealed your opinion is....

There's always the world of fan-fic, I'm sure somebody somewhere's done something...

Jedi is the weakest of the original trilogy I would agree but it still is better than any of the prequels.

Don't get me wrong I love the prequels especially II and III, people think Im crazy because I do, but the original trilogy rocks

I love Jedi, especially the scene with Vader and Luke just before he takes him to the Emperor and then the battle between them with the Emperor chiding them on.

"We are quite safe from your pitiful little band!"

Seriously, Episode I is the worst SW movie ever. It had a 20 minute racing scene which contributing nothing to plot, character development, or atmosphere and was basically a very long video game advertisement for the podracing games.

Can you imagine what kind of creature would be created if an Ewok were impregnated by one of those face suckers? Truly horrifying that would be. This gives rise to another fantastic idea. Imagine if in Episode II Anakin's mother had been killed by Ewoks. Again I would pay big to see someone go dark side on a village full of those furry bastards.

There's always Star Wars Battlefront - you can kill ewoks AND gungans in that... even if they're on your side (though they won't like it much)

Btw, I knew mentioning that I like the ewoks would spark a debate

So true. In fact I skip the scene now (and I never normally skip scenes... ever).
Its like when you're watching someoen play a video racing game. You might get some fun watching for a minute or two, but then it's like "enough! Either let me have a go or turn it off!"

Not me, I agree with you - I love all 6 myself. Though I don't have a problem with the pod-racing scene. I really kinda like it personally. But I can understand the criticism being thrown at it.

Now, if you'll excuse me - I've just stumbled blearly out of the dance partay thread, covered in writing and with my eyebrows missing (loooong story), so I'm gonna go have a nice juicy Ewok steak sandwich and then get some sleep....

It's pretty hard to find now. I don't know if you can get it online. You'd probably have to search a lot. I have seen copies for sale at conventions such as Dragon*Con but I've never picked up a copy as I'm fine with the way movie is. It's like people think hating Jar Jar Binks is the cool thing to do. He is one of my least favorite characters but he's not hate-able. If you wanna see the most annoying, crappiest characters from a movie then see Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. There's a character called Dobby and a ghost called Moaning Myrtle. They'll make you want to hurt yourself.

I personally think episode III was the best of all six. But thats just because I didn't see any of the originals until I was used to seeing CGI stuff and awsomely choreographed stunts and fights.

You're welcome on my boat. God ain't.

The Pod Race is awesome. I just wish george would have left the other 2 laps in it. Watch the cut scenes and the Pod Race goes on for about another 10 minutes :). I love Liam Neason in Menace he is 1 of the coolest Jedi ever. OK Samuel L Jackson is cool as well 'Mother fuckin Jediii!' LOL. In order of personal preferance my star wars films are in this order:

1: A New Hope
2: Phantom Menace
3: Empire Strikes Back
4: Sith
5: Clones
6: Jedi

I know a majority of people like Empire as their fave however I personally feel, other than the Battle of Hoth, nothing happens.

Not true, not a singe bullet that hit them failed to do damage. In the scene with Vasquez and Gorman (or Dipshit if you perfer) she took out two with a pistol.

As for the rest of your points, I don't really disagree, except that the Ewoks can, alien for teddybear, cause more intentional damage if you give them a moment to set up. (Unless you think the Aliens purposefully nuked themselves out of existence.)

Okay, I do remember that Vasquez pinned one of the alien's head down with her foot and then proceeded to dispatch it with several shots to the head. Point conceded, but remember before that Gorman shot at one from further away and the bullets looked to bounce off without doing any damage. I believe there were sparks as said bullets impacted the alien's head.

Damn, we totally hijacked this thread! My first one ever, dare I say yippee!
