I was a pothead when TPM came out. I saw it 9 times in the theater. I was 24.
I justified to myself it was better than the hate it was receiving, and while it was the best of the prequels that isn't saying much. I would get stoned every time before going in the theater and while DOTF was cool stoned i was deceiving myself.

Fast forward some years pot is out the window little more maturity and i can't stand them, i mean i literally get sick when i see anything PT related. I can't believe i lied to myself all that time.

Rose colored glasses is a real thing. Or in my case green tinted.
 
Anyone that likes the prequels or watches them on a semi regular basis is a hardcore pothead, or just straight up lying to themselves.:cuckoo::wink1:

Dunno why people hate that scene so much. Happens all the time in martial arts movies: posturing, looking for an opening...

Probably prolonged by each being able to anticipate the other's moves, and both being reluctant to strike.

Maybe that's why people hate it? Because it's been done to death, plus the fight is like 10 minutes long, and it gets repetitive, plus the crappy CGI environment, Vader and Obi swinging around like Tarzan to avoid the CGI infested lava, then jumping around on little flying robots like a Super Mario game, the stale acting, and that ending made no sense, the whole, "I have the higher ground" thing. Too bad Darth Maul never herd of high ground advantage :monkey2
 
If they were guys in suits, they'd look too fat in them the way the suits were designed. Look at convention cosplayers that try to dress up as Clone troopers, especially the commanders, they never look good.

The thing about the CGI clone troopers models is how sleek they were. I don't see how an actual, human head could fit into the ROTS helmet. You'd also need a waist the size of a pipe and the arms of a toothpick to fit into the form fitting armor. The only time I was weirded out by the animation was when they took their helmets off. That was bad ****. The rest of the scenes though? They looked convincing killing off all those dumb ass Jedi, or killing George Lucas' son, or talking to Jimmy Smits.


Nothing will ever top the look, design, and the British crew that were Stormtroopers and Sandtroopers in 1977. I've got tons of nostalgia for the imagery of Luke and Han in Stormtroopers disguise . . . BUT, those days are over. Hell, they were over the second we saw the troopers return in ROTJ and they had their weirdly molded helmets and were getting their ***** kicked by little, cuddly teddy bears. Clone Troopers were fine.

You must have went to Fatty Cons... Like women who go to anime cons wearing Street Fighter Cami Clothing at 280. Clones were 5'9 (Temeura's height) So in essence the BMI of cosplayers WOULD make the armor look ******. Now this pic is from fit 5'8 to 6'1 height cosplayers... The armor works... The cosplayers don't... You forget... cosplayers use cheap **** sometimes... That's why I would never disgrace a character unless I knew I was weight close.

Is that the example? They look too big, especially the thighs.


While unrealistic, this looks perfect.

The ones above look like fat bois in comparison.
 
To each his own- I don't see how you could remotely think the PT is even in the same ballpark-uhh world..universe as the OT.
I sorta liked them when they came out but I was young and not myself....
 
Are you talking to me? I don't even like the prequels. :lol


Parts of it are good though, and that includes the Clone Troopers. They look way better than these duck bros.
