Yeah, get one of those picture books for kids that tell the story of the movie in 10 pages. You might miss the special effects but you'll also miss Anikin's unconvincing performance too.

About Anikin (well, the guy who plays him), he looks cooler in that spoiler. I bet they trained the crap out of that actor. I mean, they couldn't get rid of him. I bet Lucas was like, I'm not even going to shoot a single frame of III until this kid can act.

Yea Anakin is all EMO in Episode II

If only he'd done that for Ep. II.

Though, all things considered, it was worth it to see Yoda bouncing around like a monkey ninja. (or was that in I? I've forgotten... :oops)

Wow! Those images are awesome but to be honest floating around the Starwars.com forum I pretty much knew most of what those pictures showed although it was great to actually see them especially the .gifs.

Being an old git in my early 30's I prefer the original trilogy I wasn't to keen on EPS 1 & 2. I thoght EP2 was worse than EP1 as it was to girly love story for my liking, although the Dooku Vs Yoda fight was awesome and we got to see Mace Windu finally with his purple sabre.

I am however really looking foward to May this is the Episode that I have been really looking forward to seeing as this is definately going to be the best of the new trilogy and it looks action packed all the way.

Now I really can't wait to see it. Thanks for posting the link 'compacho'.

Lmao. So true. He can't act at all. I bet all the other great actors were shaking their head when they shared a scene with Anakin. Ehh, if anything, these pics make me want to see the movie even more now. Hopefully this isn't an all action flick like Matrix Revolutions. I rather have more story than action.

I dunno, I didn't find ep 1 that bad. I mean, compare it to IV. A New Hope was really quite horrible, and horribly acted. A few of the actors in I could act as well so it was about the same imo.

2 just didn't seem to have a point other than "We're lined up for a trilogy, and he has to be Vader in 3, so how do we fill time?"

It was entertaining for the most part, but the only actor that could pull off his lines was Ewan McGregor. I don't know if the other actors are that bad or if the script was just horrible, but really, I highly doubt that Amildal would have fallen for Anakin over his "but your skin is so soft" comment. It was just ridiculous.

I know exactly what you mean. Episode II just felt like a filler movie. Something to make money quickly and to keep people still into the star wars hype.

Story goes Hayden Christiansen or whatever his name is actually a decent actor in other stuff - just George Lucas didn't do much of a job with his directing. Really, Liam Neeson didn't come across too well in Episode 1 either, and he's a great actor.

I thought episode 2 was a great movie, but I hated 1.

Hey at least there isn't anything about Jar Jar in ep 3. At least I hope there isn't.

For me Episode II only really starts when Yoda lands with the Clone army and the Clone War actually begins. The latter half of the film isn't to bad with all those Jedi's fighting and the Yoda V Dooku.

@Ender

I respect your opinion and you are entitled to your own opinion but I think you are being a bit harse on A New Hope.

I don't know how old you are but we must remember A New Hope was released in 1977 and of course by today's standards it will show its age.

I remember seeing it for the first time as a child and was completely blown away by it. At the time we had not seen a sci-fi movie of such epic proportions and the opening for me is still one of the best.

It started with no messing about straight into a space battle and immediately got the audience hooked, there are not that many films that have done that.

I do think that Ep3 has the potential to be the best of the entire epic and it ends on a dark note which makes a nice change.

If you think about it in retrospect, The whole reason the Sith rose to Power was entirely Jar Jar's fault. Think about it, They needed someone to instigate the initial movement to get the motion carried and they easily manipulated Jar Jar into doing just that. Into putting all the power of the republic into Palpatine and authorizing the use of the Clone Army.

It's all Jar Jar's Fault!

Yes I watched Episode II again last night, It's pretty bearable if you just skip past all the corny love scenes

That... Actually... Makes... Sense. So, the whole reason that jar jar acts like a mentally handicapped rastafarian is so Lucas could villainize him in the second movie?

That says something. And if anyone figures out what, let me know.

It says even the good hearted of people make mistakes... and it's more padme's fault really, she's the one that left him in charge!
