Since I'm home alone tonight I thought that it might be the right night to finally watch Star Wars! Hear that, @This Year's Girl?? I'll watch them in order of episode, not of release.

[MENTION=8885]nightshade[/MENTION] I'm already half way through The Phantom Menace!

Last message above was from David4wt.

Personally I love Star Wars and stumbled across the original DVD trilogy at a carboot for £3 recently, I was very happy 🙂
 
Star Wars was my first geeky obsession. I still love it to this day. Let us know what you think of it [MENTION=8401]david4wt[/MENTION]
 
I love Star Wars. When the special editions came out in theatres, I thought it was the greatest thing ever.

My aunt told me that it came out years ago. So I thought that these were a remake. I was blown away when we decided to rent the originals. It just blew my mind that they were exactly the same movies with the same people!!

Just to clarify, I was probably 13-14 back then. 😱
 
OMG I love Star Wars!!! I'm really in the mood to do a rewatch. I haven't watched them since I watched all six in a day with my dad about 2 years ago. I'm going to have a marathon with some people at my college because a few of them have never even seen the original trilogy. *gasp* blasphemy! 😀 I love Star Wars so much I just bought the Lego Star Wars game for my DS.

I've spent so much money on video games, DVDs and other unnecessary stuff recently. I've bought lego Star Wars and a Sonic game, ordered Pokemon Conquest and Lego Batman 2, bought Buffy season 6, Pinnochio and the Rocky Horror Picture Show (which I'd never seen and found really weird 😀), as well as some Pokemon plushies, a Supernatural t-shirt, Supernatural iPhone case and a Smallville mug. I really need to start saving, not spending, but I also have a couple of friends' birthdays coming up and have to pay to get my uni ID card replaced. *sigh* I used to be so good at not spending. 😀

How's everyone else been?

I used to love running around and fighting with plastic lightsabers as a kid. Good times. 🙂

And I just can't get enough of John William's score. He's such an amazing composer. All of his works are brilliant. 🙂
 
Yay star wars! I love it too.... for some reason I always loved the storm troopers and those big for legged machine thingies they use on (hoth?) in the beginning of empire.

Hoth I know but didn't know what they're called either.

You know the planet is Hoth but you don't remember AT-AT...are you trying to hide a little geekines there? 😀 😀 😀

heehee never. I'm geeky and proud - just not good at knowing all specifics. :-)
AT-ATs are the greatest! 😀

So what is everyone's favourite Star Wars film? You can only choose 1. Mwahahahaha 😀 I think Return of the Jedi is mine. I love the beginning where
Luke saves Han from Jabba the Hutt.
And the ending is just so uplifting. And the music. And the ewoks. 😀

My least favourite is probably the Phantom Menace, although Ewan McGregor = it being slightly better. 😀
 
[MENTION=10297]Spikefan31[/MENTION] I am a Jedi fan, too. It's an action packed finale to a great saga and has the
redemption of Anakin Skywalker
, which I love.

I love Obi Wan! I like the prequels. I don't understand the hate they get. :)

I like the prequels a lot but prefer the original trilogy
I'm not really into Star Wars. My brother is though and one Christmas I bought him the Yoda lightsaber. They arent cheap!! I've watched all the films but I can only really remember the 3 newer ones. I did enjoy how they explained how Vader became evil.
 
I watched Episode I - The Phantom Menace. It wasn't that good. I see that the whole story behind it is interesting, the Jedi thing and Anakin (I know who he will be), but most parts were boring! The race in the Tatooine was endless and I simply wanted to KILL Jar Jar Binks! I'll go on watching the others though, since I know that they are great 😉
 
[MENTION=8401]david4wt[/MENTION] - yay star wars watching! I'm not a huge fan, but I do think everyone should see the films, so I'm glad you're finally doing so! 🙂 I like the anakin story a lot. But what you really should do is watch STAR TREK which is a million times better 😉
 
But Star Trek is long! Like, a lifetime long! How many different series and seasons are there? 🙂

5 series, first one have 3 seasons, the rest has 7 each. 🙂 talk of a new series now too! I'm sure someone's going to disapprove, but just watch a couple of eps of the original series and them move on. 🙂 deep space 9 (third series) is amazing, but the next generation (second series) is really, really good too, so I recommend seeing that first so you understand everything in ds9. Seriously, everyone. Watch star trek. It's a very close runner up against btvs. 😀
 
STAR WARS!!! My mom was a huge fan when she was younger, passed it on to me 😀

We still have to buy the very special 6-disc edition in Blu-Ray.


On another subject, my show went great yesterday night. I totally rocked the place with Kryptonite!
 
My Star Wars love has faded through the years. Maybe it'll come back to me at some point. It was quite some time since I watched the movies. 10 years ago I was a big fan. Although I'd have sucked at trivia. I can also confess that I knew about Hoth but not that the AT-AT's were called just that.

very confusing, I thought you were LoveLoveLovix! :D
Hey turns out that Episode II and Episode III were great!! I watched them both today, they were addicting! I'll watch the other three during the week I think, I'm really looking forward to them! 🙂

This Year's Girl
yay! episode 2 is my favorite! :)

glad you liked them :)
[MENTION=8401]david4wt[/MENTION] glad you like episodes II and III. I don't like I much, either. Hope you like the next three. They're great! Though the special effects in comparison to the prequel trilogy are pretty bad. Lol. It might have been better to watch the original trilogy first. 😀

ahah I usually like "old" movies so I'll enjoy them for sure, even without fancy special effects :)
