Star Wars

[Green Fields]

So for someone like me,who has never watched any Star Wars movies, would I want to watch them before I watch this new one?

You will tell us three more times before the c**k crows!!!

[omaghjoe]

The real laoislad has probably watched them, so you're covered.

Nope. I have also never watched them.

Wait? Are you two different people?

Well u tell us, does he have the same IP address?

First memory of the cinema is being brought to a double bill in the Adelphi in 1981 of Star Wars/Empire (double bills!!!)

Had every figure I could lay my hands on - now my young fella is just gone 4 and got scared when I brought him to "the Good Dinosaur" (spoiler alert - it is bloody scary!) so I reckon he'll have to wait until this era's Empire to feel the Force.

I would have a go at all the super cool 70s children denying ever seeing any of it ...but I fear if I strike them down they will become more powerful than I could ever imagine...

Was always more of a trekkie myself. Never got the fascination with Star Wars. The first three were decent, enjoyable films, but no more worthy of excitement than numerous other films from the period.

As for the 90s/00s prequels, I sat through the first one, and having been close to walking out after 15 minutes of Jar Jar Binks, I wasn't arsed with the others and never saw them.

I'll give the new one a look when it comes out on demand for tv, but that will be about it.

Haha watched this a while back... its a JarJarless Phantom Menance, he really didnt bring much to the table did poor old JarJar

Just watched the 3 prequels and will move onto the original trilogy before watching the new one.
Revenge of the sith was actually OK but the other 2 were dreadful. The CGI was unforgivable though considering Lucas actually pioneered so many things to do the first films, it looked like an old playstation game or something. I can see why the new director wanted to go back to 'real' effects and less of the blue screen shite. George Lucas did a fine job at the beginning but those ewoks in Jedi were the beginning of the downfall - should have just done the same film but with wookies.

How could you do it with wookies? Sure no wookies lived on Endor? Madness.

Once chewie had found the planet and told his mates about the forests of endor and their suitable habitat and the huge supply of tasty ewok meat then the wookies would have colonized that place in a flash.

The Ewoks would have taken them out with their clever use of stones on rope, pointy sticks and battering rams. The wookies would have been wood hut decorations in no time at all.

Ha ha stop it your bringing back too many bad memories. Why could those supposed crack shot storm troopers suddenly not be able to hit anything 5 yards away. I remember a whole company of stormtroopers dying and yet maybe only 1 ewok lol

Any of you lads born in the 1970s saying you have never watched any of the original Star Wars trilogy are talking ballix I would say.

I'm one of your bollixes. Probably seen bits of them. Can't recall watching one in its entirety. The wife has been educating the son on them over the last few weeks and still no appeal for me to watch them. But then you wouldn't watch the shit I do.

Come on sit down with the lad and show a bit of interest.

The merchandising is insane since Disney are now involved
