Hi Guys,
I've also noticed that the younger generations have less long-term direction and patience for their entertainment.
As a child and now an adult, I like to watch cartoons and movies through and through and see the whole thing.
I notice that many children these days selectively tune in and out of their entertainmet barely watching it.
Lucas seems to have written SW E:III for this audience.
Shalom,
Maksim-Smelchak.

The Clone Wars cartoons can be seen here http://www.starwars.com/clonewars/ It's free as long as you can live with a fairly small screen. I'd reccomend chapters 20-25. -the new season.
Cheers!

Meh. I thought the movie was just decent. It suffered from the same problems as I and II, just less so.

Seriously, I confess the HW & the special effects are what I go to see in Star Wars movies. I still think the Imperial spaceships are the best looking ships ever. Whoever designed them has my eternal admiration, whatever that's worth..
Wish someone would do a model kit of a Super Star Destroyer. |
Oh, I'll happily join the hardware brigade; and I can't think of a better job in the world than doing spaceship modelmaking for SF films.. *dreams* 
*Stares at Starwars model kit webpages for another two hours*
There, got my fix for the day, must check out more model shops for some of them on my travels...  hehe
But since someone started to talk about novels; Grand Admiral Thrawn is my favorite of all time. Talk about a bad guy who can actually accomplish something.  The "Thrawn trilogy" is something I'd like to see as a movie. |
Isn't he just, such an ice-cold cool baddie, a highly enjoyable trilogy of books (with better plots than E1 and 2 of course  ).

Yeah, the Thrawn trilogy would make a good set of movies...however, my hope is, that when the Fat Man dies, that whoever gets the rights to the franchise and makes the last 3 movies in the series (and they will, too much money there) will use the Dark Empire comic book miniseries as a starting point.
Oh, and as a side note, ole man Lucas cribbed the starship crash scene from the first comic in that series, where Luke used the Force to guide a Star Destroyer as it crashed onto Coruscant.
my 2cents,

I'm probably the last one here to say this, but I finally saw Episode III. Overall, I liked it. Good action sequences, but as usual I wished that the large battle scenes were longer. I think it did a good job of setting up what happens in Episode IV.

Yes it ties the two trilogies together pretty seamlessly... all the loose ends as it were...
