Wasn't Anakin's youth in that scene explained by the theory that only the proponents of the good side become force ghosts? Meaning: Anakin is in the same state he was in just before he turned evil and became Darth Vader.

Oh, goody, this discussion again.

For you, maybe. I don't agree with all of them, but that's as far as it goes. But how is a change lazy? The fact that it's a change implies care and work, therefore not lazy.

Show me one recent change GL made to Star Wars that implies "care and work..."

I think the digitized Yoda in the Episode I bluray improved things considerably.

Apology, owe you I may...

I forgot about that one. I didn't get a chance to see it, though, and probably won't, in the foreseeable future.

... other than that, I cannot think of anything else, off-hand. ;-)

He got plenty of others, so I'd guess not.

NOTHING can improve TPM other than burning the negative.

Me, too.

I do like Episode 1 TPM . TPM is not that bad of a movie everyone says it is. Sure it has it's faults but it's still a enjoyable star wars film.

[The Apocalypse]

Same. I had an argument the other day with a friend over the finer points of the prequel trilogy, suffice it to say we agreed to disagree, but I stand by my view that they serve as fine films, best one of course being RotS.

I was listening to the radio and they where taking call about worst casting in a movie, Hayden Christian was winning in a landslide. Also someone mention that Khloe Kardashian was a bad call for Han Solos co pilot lol

I got one! Extending the corridor in the detention block. That looks like it would be very difficult to do convincingly but they did it. Pointless but subtle and natural looking. As opposed to pointless, crappy and 90s-looking like the other stuff.

Your comments made me watch it last night. Hadn't seen it for some 6 years, but it was not as bad as I remembered it. I actually quite enjoyed it. I wasn't even too bothered by Jar Jar. Wtf?

Star Wars obsession drives ppl insane, your own words confirm it.

Yeah I don't get all the hate for it ... after all it has some amazing scenes and the lightsaber battle IA one of the best in the saga ... not a CGI fight .. actual choreography lol

I hate the prequels with a passion but I'll happily admit that I think Phantom Menace is the best of the 3. It's the only one that even feels like a Star Wars film.

I got to say I disagree, I felt like Phantom Menace was a little too contained. Unlike AotC and RotS, TPM doesn't relate that much to the overall story, besides establishing the basics, like characters and locations for the next two films.
