Well, I am evil that tries to change its sinister ways! Only time will tell if I will be sucessful.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

LOL! Mel, you are about as evil as Jimmy Churchgoer at a praise night!
And PLEASE shut up about your girlfriend! You must have mentioned her about 10 times the past 3 days. Woooo hooooo, you have your first girlfriend. I'm happy for you, enjoy her feminine charms and shut up telling us!

We know the real McCallum is such a wanker:  as the movie Fall of a Saga shows us, he mixes tequila shots with Xanax.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Ha ha! So busy flaming Mel I forgot my real post!
Yeah McCallum is a total a-hole and really has much to answer for. I have this mental picture of him being the Grima Wormtongue to GL's King Theoden. A man with much power and potential, but he is swayed to waste it by listening to a single person with an evil agenda to the exclusion of all those who know what is best for him. In McCallum's case, money, money and errr, money!

But this forum entertains me.

* does a Twi'lek sensual dance...

Entertained yet? I think I do this slave outfit more justice than any Twi'lek whore or senator/princess/demi-goddess ever will.

The hairy white men turn on Hutts like you wouldn't believe... 'specially when we get slimey.

I instantly disliked McCallum even way back on the interviews for the Special Edition. He's the poster boy for the new crowd Lucas hangs with.

You know what though? I wouldn't be surprised to find out (years from now) that even Rick McCallum was uneasy with the project at some point. Anyone else ever wondered that?

Honestly, no. Like you I hated McCallum from the pre-Ep1 interviews, his comment of "Well if we are going to take Star Wars on it needs to get a lot more adult and a lot sexier". I'm very pleased that didn't happen, in fact it went the other way and got retardly beyond childish, but you could tell that all he cared about was mass marketing and... (I've said this a few times on this forum!) money.
I don't think he ever worried about a single scene. He was too busy making sure each film contained at least 2 sequences they could port straight into a video game and that they were bringing in enough characters new and old to make into 10 different sizes and quality of toy/collectible.

Ha ha! So busy flaming Mel I forgot my real post!

Okay, quit flaming. You'll get banned for it, cause I'm pretty sure Civ and Despondant are getting real tired of it. So am I. I've defused like... 5 arguments in the past week. I'm like the unnoficial SW forum moderator....

Prove to me that any OT film is better than ROTS!

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

ESB
"I love you"
"I know"
ROTS
"you're so beautiful"
"no, I'm only BEutiful because i'm so in love."

ESB
darth vader chokes his own subordinates, one after the other for failing him
ROTS
darth vader chokes his wife, who only dies because she's a pussy...

ESB
Had Bobba Fett, a ruthless bounty hunter who isn't even affraid of Darth Vader, and keeps reminding him not to fuck up han too much. and has a flamethrower on his arm, a jet pack, a harpoon gun on the other arm, and a cool ship.
ROTS
has genral grevious who has severe respitory problems, keeps running away, and has no real protection around his completeley exposed heart.

...



that's just a taste

Well... the women are.
Fortuna is just... well he's an albino tentacle head man with weird hands and bad teeth.

[Twig Bear]

Why do I think Twi'lek's should have pubic hair on their lekku?

Dude... Twi'lek's are hot!

Not according to the Hutts. They're smooth-skinned and lacking in slime... a Hutt finds that reprehensible and so do I. I'm full of wrinkles, covered in hair, and soaked with man slime. Put me in a metal bikini and I'll keep Jabba happy.

Fortuna is just... well he's an albino tentacle head man with weird hands and bad teeth.

Hear, hear! Hear, hear! Hear, hear! For those of you who have no idea why I said that: hear, hear is an abbreviated form of, "Hear, all ye good people, hear what this brilliant and eloquent speaker has to say!" They use it in Parliaments ALL the time.

And in conclusion...

ESB - Yoda says, "And well you should not. For my ally in the Force. And a powerful ally it is. Life creates it, makes it grow. It's energy surrounds us and binds us. Luminous beings are we... not this crude matter. You must feel the Force around you. Here, between you...me...the tree...the rock...everywhere! Yes, even between this land and that ship!"
ROTS - Yoda says, "Wookiee good... eat Wookiee!"

Any experienced twilek Jedi ought to have those horrible manatee/boat scars on their head.

but yeah, she's hot. Blue me away.

Hello,

Their views summed it up pretty much for me. Lucas was always a C+ director who needed the help of other people to pull his ideas together. Now that he's rich and famous he can toss out the people who helped him- like his wife. And just employ a whole bunch of c@cksuckers to help produce the POS films.

Lucas is a hack. He's been coasting on the success of SW and ESB for years.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Absolutely right sniper968... The idea about the importance of PT because of "lucas's vision" is bullshit. Lucas has a staff of hundreds of people who all contributed to the movies. Lawrence Kasdan made the scripts great and Irving Kirshner MADE the OT what it now is. I find misplaced reverence for the non-existant talents of Lucas to be reflective of poor understanding. like I said, Lucas got EXTREMELY lucky with EP IV. It was 1977, inflation, unemployment, watergate and vietnam had just ended, movies were serious and introspective and he filled a collective need for escapism. Because of that one success we should be all made to endure countless horrible prequels? (our nostalgia draws us back) Like you said: The one thing that has changed over the intermission between the OT and PT is that Lucas has gained even more creative control at the expence of other's input. Now his visions are more singular and likewise they suck because of it. What has happened to lucasarts is the same as that has happened to every slowly decaying creative franchise. A leader or founder exherts all of his creative vision until he has little left to contribute...when he should honorably bow out and allow other's more fresh ideas to find exp​ression (to the benefit of the project)...the leader arrogantly entrenches himself in his power matrix ("my vision, my vision") all to the detriment of the final creative "project." The leader becomes a leech. While he may have a legal "right" to do these things, i find it a breach of morality and integrity. Here is my question, does anyone on the creative staff challenge lucas? Or are they all just "yes" men.
