1-6, the acting in all of them suck, we are just older now and expect more. To a kid, they will be equally good. In fact, the first three to them will probably be better.

I definitely agree that the acting sucks in all of them.

 

 

Yeah, that's kind of what the 2nd video touches.  He's right in saying the first movie was an abomination but the second two weren't that bad for the most part.  It really would be interesting to hear what someone who had never seen the movies and had no expectations and hear what they say if they watched them I-VI.

I'll go IV-VI. Then, I'd whip out I-lll. And THEN, we watch I-VI. I'd explain," Part l was made OVER TWENTY YEARS after part IV and it all ties together flawlessly. Just awesome.

 

flawlessly, as in Leia is a princess because??

A) Naboo queens are elected, hence no princesses

B) remember that little talk on ewok trees she had with luke about her real mother that died when she was 4 (or so)...

Also note R2's jet propultion.

And don't forget Anakin's half brother that is 20years old like anakin although he did not exist when anakin was 10 (just so that he and the wife appeared... The story would have been fine with him being 10...)

 

I am hardly a SW reference but these points enoyed me when watching the movie... and they could easely have been avoided...

all the more reasons to show them in creation order imho

If there's ever an other movie trilogy it HAS TO be based on the book trilogy by Timothy Zahn : Heir to the Empire, Dark Force Rising and The Last Command. Also, Georges Lucas has to stay as far away from the script as possible.

i dont follow the books but it has always made ense to me to simple have luke be a teacher and have a crop of new students go out on quests to save x planet or save x person

 

i mean all it takes is some great special effects a few memorable bad guys and a world to save and blame you have a great movie

I tried to follow the books but there's far too many of them. The ones I appreciated the most were the Timothy Zahn trilogy and Shadows of the Empire but your idea would make great action movies too.

My kids are teens now so assuming grandkids - Normally I'd agree with IV-VI first as those are the best but....

They only time in their lives they'll actually enjoy Phantom Menance is when their too little to know how dumb it is so you might as well start there...



 

I say make a trrlogy about kyle katan

first watch 4-6 then 1-3 and then 4-6 again. Then watch 3 just because it's the best in the series and really epic.

You mean "excluding 4-6, 3 is the best in the series"

I actually quite like the idea of 4-5, 1-3, 6.. although the visual quality change from 3 to 6 might be unbearable to new age kids, haha



Watch 4 and 5, then stop 6 after Jabba is killed. That's the only good part in that movie. The prequels are abominations that should be banned.
