I liked Star Wars (IV) and TESB > very much. ROTJ was a lesser movie and the prequels... Never mind them. The only real issue with Star Wars is that there was such a long time between the trilogies, meaning they look quite different due to technology improvements, differeing style, over-the-top fight scenes, etc. Many of the later additions to the Original Trilogy look out of place with the older film quality / style. If all six (and soon a ridiculously tacked-on third Trilogy) had been made continuously like "Harry Potter", for example, then those differences would have been much less noticeable. --- Synchronet 3.15a-Linux NewsLink 1.92-mlp * Origin: Aioe.org NNTP Server (1:2320/105.97) --- SBBSecho 2.12-Linux * Origin: telnet & http://cco.ath.cx - Dial-Up: 502-875-8938 (1:2320/105.1) .
