MR

Ep. 1 (which SUCKED!!! ) is on Spike right now.

Since we....um...I mean, MOST of us grew up with the "old-fashioned" way of the SW "sequence", I'd like to know:

would you let the "next generation" watch ep 4-6....THEN watch ep 1-3....

..Y'know....like WE had to...?

Discuss...

PS ~ Yes; it's raining; stuck inside, can't Garden.....cantcha tell...?

No. That would be like watching the Hobbit after the LotR movies.

And, actually, the 'next generation' is into the Clone Wars cartoons and probably hasn't seen ANY of the movies.

I'm not sure... the "next generation" might think that the original trilogy is incredibly dated (A New Hope certainly is even though I love it) and they might be uninterested in all the movies because of it.

I would probably have someone watch the original trilogy first just because the prequels are so boring and lame that they might not stick through to see the original trilogy if you make them watch from Ep 1...

me!! me!! me!! pick me!!!!

my babies have not even seen ep. 1-3, nor do they know they exist. hmph

GOOD

My question is simple. In The Empire Strikes Back, how in the Hell was the Evil Empire able to build a new Space Station when all their dudes got blown up in Star Wars? It makes NO sense. There was just one survivor, right? Darth Vadar got dog rolled into space in his fighter, when Luke and the boys got lucky and shot a round into the deep regions of the Death Star....so as far as I know, he was the only dude left. How was he able to get a bunch of carpenters, electricians and roofers together to build that giant Space Station?

Dean, the death star was only a single space station, there were still many other space stations around. The Emperor was elsewhere also. The second death star didn't make a showing until Return of the Jedi.

Well, whatever. I didn't know that. I just thought the Empire got blasted to shit in the first one and they miraculously built a new Space Station, a mobile one at that, with new bodies.

Very simple - just follow the money trail. Darth Vader had more money than sense and way too much time on his lava scarred hands.

This is how I did it with my kids, although they haven't seen episode 3 yet. Too violent at this point.

Everytime I watch Episode 3 (which is on right now) I wanna go back and watch "A New Hope"

Yeah i wouldn't let my kids watch episode III, it was much more violent than i expected.

Nope- only in the 2nd and 3rd epis. By Luke's time, the stormtroopers were just regular conscripts from the galaxy at large.


Geek moment- over and out!

Nah of course not, the Empire was just that, an EMPIRE! They controlled the whole galaxy and had people everywhere, with even more coming... at the beginning of Ep 4 Luke wanted to go to the Imperial Academy just to get off the planet...

Mark Hammill's acting was not much better.

Blasphemy!! you sound like one of those guys that thinks Corvette Summer
