This is going to suck, doubly so because I know I'm going to end up watching each of these films when they're released.

I thought Ep. I was bad but bearable, so I went to watch II. That was awful, and the only reason I watched III was to finish out the pre-trilogy.

I successfully exercised self control and did not see Matrix III (I called friends as soon as I got out of Matrix II warning them not to go see it.)

I'm not going to see the Star Wars 3D movies of my own free will.

I hope that if you're ever forced to see them against your own free will that you'll at least leave us with some sort of EVWHOREST3K.

Jeez, I guess you didn't "let [yourself] enjoy it" eh? (/snark)

After Ep. I Natalie Portman was Dead to Me for quite a while, until V for Vendetta redeemed her damned ass quite gloriously.

Any realistic fan realizes that they always WERE rather poorly/campily acted, but the better the graphics and production got for Ep's I&II, the more the wooden acting sticks out.

Every sci-fi fan has their personal When Did Lucas Sell Out His Vision? answer. For me it was when he chopped his Wookiees in half and made them Ewoks so he could sell more Happy Meals for Ep. VI. Like the Godfather franchise, it should have been '2 and done.'

When is Attack of the Killer Tomatoes going to hit 3-D?

I think they'd be more likely to get my money by re-releasing the films as they are.

evwhore September 29 2010, 22:07:58 UTC

dunno, 3D is the flavor of the month.

I said my money, not the money of the masses.

evwhore September 30 2010, 00:48:23 UTC

Oh. I can't read.

I'll probably go see IV, V, and VI. Maybe III, but I doubt it. Which one was mostly underwater with jarjar binks? That one sucked.
