Hello Singles! Hello all! And happy Veteran's Day! God bless the troops.

LOL my first time starting this thread so it may be amaturish at best until I get the...

...hang of it.

See Paul, doesn't #638 just make you just die to see this movie? It really is a funny movie. Don't take one little shot out of context.

Actually, I've been watching them all in order, from "Phantom Menace" to "Return of the Jedi", as a celebration.

I'd already watched ep. III, but I made the mistake of watching it alone, and my Dad said he wanted to watch it. So I had to watch it a second time, along with watching ep. VI. They go good together.

I'm kind of "Star Wars-ed" out now, though.

Paul (et al),

Actually - you have to give it a chance. You'll start watching it and go, "geez - this is stupid... Ozarkgirl and Dasher are crazy" and then... you'll get sucked in and will be laughing for days.

Trust us.

That was my first response. Someone told me to watch it, can't remember even who but I thought, this movie is so stupid. It definately grows on you, days later I'm thinking, I know this guy, finally realized he was a conglomeration of people I'd met in high school.

It's a little late for workin girls, better get some sleep. Nite.

Cool I will have to do that. I thought Episode 3 was cool. I especially liked General Greivous. He was awesome. And the space battle was cool too (wish it had been longer or there were more).

LOL I honestly do not care for that animation. But I will give the movie itself a chance.

Episode III was great. Really, the only Star Wars movie I don't like all that much is Episode 2: Attack of the Clones.

I agree. The ground battle at the end was cool and I liked how Natalie Portman was dressed (you know what I'm talking about lol) but the rest of Episode 2 was flat. Ian McDermid really stole the show in Episode 3. Did a very good job as the emperor.

Here is my biggest and most controversial thread ever posted; a vanity made soon after joining FR:

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1407434/posts

The problem with Episode II is that in order to be good, the key to a Star Wars movie is that it has to be FUN. Just plain fun...and Episode II was just boring, you know.

Very cool. Yeah I'll admit that I liked Episode 1 more after seeing Episode 3. Perhaps because it all comes together makes more sense. We now know who the mystrerious Lord Sidious was. The Trade Federation now had a purpose (part of the Confederacy of Independant Systems) instead of being just a Red Rorce for the Naboo fighter pilots to shoot at.

Episode 2 however (save for Natalie in some revealing clothing and save for the battle at the end) was dull.

You may have already seen it, but if not, you'll thank me for these:

If you watch all the movies in order like I did, you'll see a lot of fun little things and notice little touches you never had never noticed before.

I didn't like Episode I when I first saw it, but when I watched it again later, I realized it's actually a good movie. The problem was that it couldn't possibly have lived up to the hype (no movie could have). I still don't like Jar-Jar or Jake Lloyd's horrible acting, but they don't sink it. "The Phantom Menace" is a superbly crafted movie.

And I like Natalie's outfits in Episode II as well. I also liked the Clone Wars scene, but that's about it.

Yes I know :) So many stuff that I never did notice.

Same here about Episode I when I first saw it. Agree on Jar Jar.

Episode II should have took place during the middile of the clone wars themselves instead of taking place in the events leading up to it.

Did you notice the Millenium Falcon appearing in Ep. 3?

Yes I did :) I wonder who flew it back then. Probably Lando?

Owner before him, because I think Lando would only be a little kid at the time.

Well, we didn't know that till now.

I just watched a few scenes from "Napoleon Dynamite" on its official web site. I think it looks pretty funny.
