I haven't watched that scene in so long that I forgot exactly how awful the CGI was.

Mooey Cow posted:We are talking here about people that are so mad at Lucas they are literally taking a black marker and drawing big lines around the spaceships and characters for no reason that makes sense to the human mind. You mean George was being so mad that people made fun of his dumb changes that he refused to release the theatrical versions. Seems like a good reason to get mad. This also ignores the people who just want to restore them to the versions they liked.

I would point out that TLJ is actually a bad movie but at least it has better ideas than any of the other 2 sequel movies except this is a thread about how terrible the PT is and everyone should probably get back on that topic, the topic being the PT are loving awful in literally every measurable way.

What? No. Whenever my players level up I describe how the guild shows up with containers full of blood and they just pump more blood into their characters. We deduced that a wizard hitdie is the size of a hip flask. Barbarians are two 40s.

ruddiger posted:There’s at least a half a dozen new and unique designs in this clip that are leaps and bounds more original than anything in the sequel trilogy. "new" doesn't always equal good. I just noticed this, but for some reason the federation missiles propulsion is in the front of the missiles. It's like kylo ren's light saber, and change that makes no sense and would make it function worse but it looks different so print it I guess?

Man with Hat posted:I just caught up and the funniest thing in this thread was when people were arguing for pages about whether or not Anakin has more midichlorians than Obi-Wan due to having more than Yoda when the scene goes "That's more than master Yoda!" "That's more than anyone" To be fair no one remembers that scene because it's a terrible movie and everyone forgets as much about it as they can as a self defense mechanism.

PittTheElder posted:But Lucas apparently didn't know he was going to be Luke's father initially so maybe that's just a weird coincidence. Count Duke isn't any sillier than that. In a trilogy that includes as many poop jokes as the PT does, a name that sounds like a euphamism for poop is not an accident.

Saint Drogo posted:Arnie's charm is a pretty decent comparison for the enjoyable bits of the prequels imo. but 'charming' is the best thing you can say for a lot of his movies too, the truly excellent films he was in were excellent without him & the howling well-meaning buffalo man was the cherry on top. Commando is an excellent film and wouldn't have been the same without him.
