Poll question: You are Nero! George Lucas : Thumbs Up or Thumbs Down?
Edited on Mon Apr-26-04 08:07 PM by DS1
Take all the time you need, consider his past work, his recent work, and his potential future work, and decide if he's worth keeping around.

picking hayden christensen... how could you let that kid kill your story? sure the prequels didnt need any help, but hayden looks like hes doing the movie just to get through it like a kid forced to go to school, i mean, why oh why...

the only scene that made him look like he had any emotion whatsoever is the one where he holds his dying mother, you can see the character snap right then and there, best moment in any of the prequels.

jar jar didnt get him any points either.

4. Wait until they throw Anakin into the boiling pit in the next movie.
You forget how shrill Mark Hamill was in Star Wars.

2. Has he ever watched any of the original 3 movies??!?
Seriously, if he's only seen them in editing, maybe he really had no idea what he was doing. I'd rather that be the case than to discover he cogently blew all the prequels.

3. He's systematically destroyed them
This round of 'prequels' is even ~more~ edited than the last :eyes:

Anything for a fast buck, the f*cker. Notice R2-D2 had little side-rockets in EP2? Guess who gets nagged by their kids about buying the 'new' R2 :eyes:

7. The pleasure he gave me as a child
...more than outweighs the suffering he gives me as an adult. Sort of like my dad in reverse...
