I loved Obi Wan in the prequels

I honestly don't think they should ever have been made or Lucas should have gotten in somebody else to write the scripts and direct the films. They were crap.

Well, I did like the prequels, I understand why you didnt but I liked them, I grew up watching them in the cinemas, the Star Wars seires wasnt my favourite while growing up, that was actually Star Trek xD

I decided, I love all the Star Wars films pretty much the same, the prequels wouldnt have been half as good if we didnt already have the originals, where as the originals were good previous to the prequels, which is an intresting point

Sure he's fecking 67 now and he wants to do another Indiana Jones, the mad, egocentric fecker. But yeah, he was great back then, even though he was just lucky to get Han Solo and Indiana Jones as he was never Lucas' first choice on either film.

I'm actually more of a fan of Costners to be honest with you, even though Ford was up there with Christopher Reeve as my heroes at a young age. Who can forget him playing Superman? So good.

Just ok?? Field of Dreams is wonderful. Eh, what others ones will I throw at you? Dances with Wolves? Fandango? No Way Out? Tin Cup? Robin Hood?

Did you know that Tom Selleck was supposed to be Indiana Jones and I've always argued with people that I think he would have been excellent in the role.

What he said. Star Wars Prequels were pretty boring films, I thought. Probably alright to watch once for the effects, but that is it.

Problem with the originals these days is the special effects are probably pretty creaky looking to today's audiences by comparison to what else is out there.

The old ones were much better. No doubt about it. Anyone who thinks otherwise is NOT a real Star Wars fan. KABOOOOOOOOOOOM!

I think the originals are better, the characterisation was better I thought and Mark Hamill was a better lead Actor then Hayden Chris....thingy. Saying that I haven't watched the third one yet so I can't completely judge the prequels as a whole.

The originals are much better, the scripts and the characters far superior...and they did really miss Han Solo in the others whoever said that
