Star Wars Episode I vs Episode II: Which one is truly the WOAT?
- Thread starter Days of Future Piff
- Start date
I dunno how much it was the script or the actors but Portman and Hayden were straight up trash in the prequels. They botched every serious scene and came across sooooo damn corny. Like dudes said Ewan McGregor killed his role so u cant blame the script 100%. Someone shouldve pulled those 2 aside and told them to step it the hell up. I dunno how they were watching the finished products and not think "this is some corny ass bullshyt 
". Their acting killed the prequels more than anything for me. Episode 1 had the same issue times 100 with JarJar and that kid that played Anikin who was fukking atrocious.

Poetical Poltergeist
Precise and cold hearted
Hell nah. Well if anything they can go back when Vader was Vader way after the prequels happened. Show his adventures. They doing a Han Solo movie too right? Yeah there's gonna be a lot of star wars in the next decade. Might be overkill.

episode 1 had that podracing game, but it was better in the arcades, whereas ep. 2 had the jango fett game which was actually pretty decent
Makavalli
Sinister is a system
Ep 2 for sure. The CGI is like a cake with too much frosting and your teeth start to hurt before your half way done.the last battle i felt like i was about to have a seizure with all the shyt going on.
Episode 1 was saved by Maul's great character design and great choregraphed fight scene and a little less CGI. All those special editions of the OG trilogy had Lucas itching to use that cgi smh my 6 yr old was even looking at the flicks like
Before We went to TFA.
I didnt even realize it but the new prequels like Han's,Boba fett and Rogue are during the Vader Era so new Vader scenes will be an easy Billy

Ep 1 has most of the votes. Plinkett made some good points in his ep 1 review:
* Palpatine's whole plan seems to be to scare the people of Naboo and the Senate into initiating a vote of no confidence in that other dude so that Palpatine can assume power in his place. In that case, then wouldn't it make more sense for him to have his people tell the Jedi "Nah, we ain't negotiating nothin'
Now run and tell that."
Then the Jedi telling them the news would create fear and would have accomplished a lot more than if he had just murked both of the Jedi on the spot.
And after that the senate decides that an independent team needs to go verify those claims that the invasion is really happening. Is the Jedi's testimony not good enough? You trust them to settle interstellar trade disuptes, but don't believe them when they say an invasion is coming

2 was worse, i reallly cant stand the actor they used for darth vador
And you know what kills me the most thinking about it is Natalie Portman and Hayden C. are amazing actors, it's not THEM.... it's the DAMN SCRIPT!!!!!
What leads you to say that?
I was watching that movie he was in with kevin kline and he played the son when he found out his father was dying...
He CAN act his ass off given the material...

after the screening when Lucas, mccalluum, and the editor are in the kitchen.
Mccalluum is literally speechless and you could see for a brief moment he says something like "remember the first Star Wars...".... and you could tell midway he was just like fukk it it's no use.
In that same doc George's first reaction to watching Episode I was "...I might have gone too far" and then does the George chuckle.
He recently said that if he could go back he would've done some smaller projects before jumping back into the director's seat for Phantom.
To me the prequels seem like him relearning how to shoot a movie.
Episode I was his first go. Was a big mess.
Episode II he figured out how to tell an interesting story but the script / acting wasn't consistent.
Episode III he got his groove back.
