wooosh
i am not a big star-wars fan, but here is what i see:
-when lucas had an appertunity to expand on the SW universe by making prequels, what does he do? create a new exciting story? no, he insists on looping everything from the old trilogy the new trilogy for the sake of the fans (whom he seems to annoy the most). Chewie in EP3 will suck, a cameo would have been cool, but full character involment like this is lame.
-cheesy jokes in ep2, at one point: "your going to be the death of me". how i chuckled
-luke in ep2. holy shit, when watching ep1 i said to myself "the mother is going to be killed and luke is going to go evil". wafer thin surprize.
-stormtroopers, super efficient clone death troops in the new trilogy, idiots in the old trilogy. EG: serching for r2 and cp30, the knock on a door, wait a scant second and move on.
-complecating the plot, when you look at the old trilogy there is a simple and effective plot, but since then books and other spinoff have created backgrounds and links between characters who made a 2 second apperence in the background of a movie. therefore the new movies have to compensate for all this by linking characters and creating wierd plots involving politics and scientific theories and shit
anyways, i like the starwars movies, but lucas has gone mad with power since the 70s.
BTW: i apoligise for any inaccurices or whatever hardcore Starwars fans would disagree with
