Rome is burning 2009/04/29 19:32:33Star Wars.+3The Matrix was sweet but the other two were some of the biggest peices of crap I have ever seen. I was disapointed with Phantom Menace when I first saw it but it was up against 20 years of high expectations. Now that I've rewatched it a few dozen times I actually like it a lot. It still has a few things in it I don't like (Jar Jar) but they don't ruin the movie for me. The things I don't like in the 2nd and 3rd movies have more to do with bad screenwriting. Lucas writes some pretty terrible lines from time to time.






















but,hey!to each his own,as they say.i can dig both on certain levels.
one more,yoda acts like old pals with chewbacca in episode 3,and like they never met in episode5.the ending people wanted was dashed at the end of part 2,when keanu told morpheus that the prophecy was a lie,a means of control.he sacrificed himself for humanity,like someone else was said to have done a while ago.i dug it completely.
It's been a while since I saw the second two Matrix movies, and I only saw each of them once, but my biggest issue wasn't neccessarily the prophecy, but more along the lines of his having the ability to control machines outside of the Matrix made no sense. Also, I didn't like the way that it seemed like the whole thing just rebooted, and started over again, and the story would repeat itself. It left me feeling like what was the point?
It's cool that you liked it more, I definitely understand some of the complaints that people had about Star Wars, but after the original Matrix, I just thought there was a ton of wasted potential.
i was more impressed with episodes 4 and 5 of the star wars trilogy.i can watch any one of them and be entertained,i just have to suspend my knowledge of the whole thing [when the prequel trilogy is concerned] or the analytical part of my mind will melt!
did you know the ENTIRE cast of the show despised william shatner?nimoy and the sister that played uhura were tied for hating him the most.
i only recently found out that show was only on for a season and a half!
why didn't c-3po just relay the entire history of the clone wars,his father's history/identity,and everything else to luke?r2d2 could have done the same thing.
but,i'll leave the fragile star wars universe alone for people to enjoy,even though it ts filled with so many plot holes it doubles as swiss cheese.
i know,the matrix is not perfect,but at least the story was coherent and the directors stuck to it.
