Will Star Wars Episode Three suck like the others or is there a chance it won't?
Book readers in survey prove to be overoptimistic.
It'll suck because the Force just isn't with Lucas

But LOTR kicked ass ... Where have you been?

Yeah, personally, I'd have to agree, I think it's probably going to suck, from what the other two episodes have shown me, but this one looks a lot better, so for me it's up in the air.

Of course I'm going to see it no matter what ...

While I hope it will be good, I don't expect much out of Lucas after watching the last two movies. As long as he isn't doing the dialogue directing, I think we'll be fine.

But really, there are parts of Eps I and II that I would just love to erase from my memory.

Given the hate mail that Lucas received from his fans...Especially considering that this deals with the penultimate bad guy of film.

It'll probably be okay.

Yep. He learned his lesson with the creation of Jar Jar Binks.

Penultimate? You mean ultimate?

But yeah, I'm expecting a lot better performance from Hayden, and also some good stuff from Ewan McGregor, Samuel Jackson, and Ian McDirmid

Honestly, the acting entirely in Episode II didn't seem all that bad to me, other than Hayden. Hayden was horrible, everyone else did perfectly fine.

Yeah, when was Samual L. Jackson bad?

But yeah, I have a question. Cheveyo PM'd me asking this, regarding my title.

Is it "Wookie" or "Wookiee", honestly I'm clueless. Both get a lot of hits on Google.

I never said he was bad. I just expect to see a great performance from him and the others in III.

And, it's Wookiee.

No. It won't suck.

Finally Anakin will move on from being a Backstreetboy to G-Unit.

What I mean is that with the combination of great fighting, Anakin's transformation to the darkside, death, more death, Natalie Portman, and a lot of boring ass talk, this movie might reach our expectations.

It better or Lucas will shit himself out of anger because he can never please his fans.

As for the ending O.G., well I'm pretty sure we known how it turns out for Anakin.

Didn't expect to see what coming exactly? (I've read the novel tie-in) Most of it was prety predictable, although, I'm looking forward to seeing the battles on screen, and Anakin's decent makes a LOT of sense....

Well it's pretty obvious what the main plot is going to be, it's just actually "seeing it played" will be incredibly amazing.

I'll probably tear, or come close to like I always do when Luke and Vader duel at the very end of Episode VI. What can I say, Star Wars is the greatest.

I also saw a preview for the movie ealier today when I went to see the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy. I've seem most of the segments that make up the trailer already, but actually seeing it on a big screen with the sorround sound just made it 100x more impressive.

This movie will come close, or even rank up to the original Trilogy, in my opinion.

Itll be action packed thats for sure, that will make it awesome!

However, lets face it we all know it will have a crappy ending. It wont be a happy ending by any means. Anakin will become Vader and itll be like "wow....so thats it....no more Star Wars movies...now what will we do?!?!"

I really dont care, im not really a Star Wars fan, but I do enjoy the movies and a bunch of the games So ill watch it and enjoy it. Just not on the first day, cause every theatre is gonna packed with smelly nerds!! LOL

Who says an "Evil" ending is crappy?

Look at The Empire Strikes Back, the Rebels didn't do so well on that one. Han was captured, Luke got his hand cut off and realized Darth Vader was his father, etc.

I think it'll rock, seeing the birth of Darth Vader at the end.

When you read the book and the graphic novel, the decent makes does make sense. right now im halfway through the novel(i decided to get it on saturday)
i didnt think that palpatine would have so much to do with the actual change to the darkside though.

It won't suck. If it sucks, it'll be the biggest let down of them all, not to mention an all out choke-fest, Lucas doing the choking of course.

Aside from the long light sabre duel (Anakin's last as a Jedi before going Sith I imagine) and Anakin's joining the Dark Side, it should also feature the birth of Luke Skywalker. It just wouldn't make sense for Luke to start out as a teen/adult (starting with Episode IV: A New Hope), now would it?

Spoiler:
I do believe that Anakin becomes Sith before his duel with Obi-Wan (The Duel). The birth of the twins will be in the movie, along with their separation.

Only read this spoiler Nick if you REALLY want to know... I've read the Novel of the film and so know what happens in the film... so here's my response....

Spoiler:
You're correct on both counts mate. As for the exact moment Anakin turns.... it's a doozy

I was pretty sure, I just put the unsure wording as a precautionary measure in case I was wrong.

I have to think that the amount of expectations placed on this movie after all the trailers and stuff will result in a bit of a letdown. But other than that, yeah, that second choice in the poll really sums it up. How can it go wrong with Vader in it? I mean, this is the only Star Wars movie that I have really just looked at a trailer and said "I HAVE TO SEE THIS". Quite honestly, I didn't even see Return of the Jedi until a couple of years ago...

I'm really looking forward to all of these battle scenes, and all of the holes in the series finally being patched up.

No. Episode III will not suck. I think it will actually be better than the previous two. You better get your tickets early. May 19th, Thursday, even during the day time, every theater is going to be jam packed and sold out. This is going to be the biggest and most exciting moment in Star Wars history. I asked my dad to take off that day. Who else is taking off that day?
