erisiansaint Dec. 2nd, 2019 08:56 pm)So, I just finished watching the prequel Star Wars trilogy, all three movies in two days.
1) So. Much. Potential. If only George had gotten someone whose job is to craft words to write the script. And maybe change the plotline a bit so it isn't /quite/ so heavy handed.
2) Too much fucking racism, even though he clearly didn't think it was. He was wrong.
3) Natalie Portman is a HELL of an actress. Hayden Christiansen is good, too. Neither of these two people could overcome their total lack of chemistry, nor could they overcome that dialogue. James Earl Jones (at the end of the third) couldn't overcome the dialogue.
I was going to move onto the original trilogy, but frankly, I need to give emo, white Skywalker boys a break for a bit, even if I do have a major thing for Luke.
