Star Wars Episode 3 Play-By-Play In Pictures

Posted by timothy on from the ok-there-are-like-these-people-right-with-lasers dept.

jflint writes "Here is a site with over 80 screenshots (claiming more to come) that shows the story line of the upcoming Star Wars Episode 3. Some of the screenshots have French subtitles in them." These shots -- especially the space battle scenes -- certainly make it look more worthwhile than the two prior episodes.

  1. More worthwhile... by Snaller · · Score: 4, Insightful

    ...because after all blowing shit up is so much more important than dialog...

    You hate George Lucas but you are going to line his pockets all the same. Resistance is futile.

    Well Episodes I and II look worthwhile if you don't have to listen to the dialogue.

  4. Looks really good by chrisgeleven · · Score: 4, Insightful

    I saw these pictures last night, so I beat the /.

    The movie looks really good.

    I'm not concerned about the movie's looks or story though...Star Wars is always at the top with those. For the most part, everyone has to agree that the story line for the first two prequels outside of a few annoying pieces is actuallly pretty good.

    What worries me most is the dialogue...that is where the first two prequels failed and where the original trilogy got everyone hooked.

    Let's hope that problem is fixed.

    "These shots -- especially the space battle scenes -- certainly make it look more worthwhile than the two prior episodes."

    When the first one came out, everyone was so excited. People were camped in front of movie theaters for months, and you could easily get the impression that this was going to be one of the best movies of all time.

    Then they saw Jar-Jar and the rest is history.

    When the second one came out, people were once again excited. Yeah, they remembered how horrible the first one was, but this new Star Wars promised to be much better! Less Jar-Jar, a new Anakin, and an improved storyline.

    Then everyone realized that while it might be better than the first one, that isn't saying much.

    Now they release a few pretty pictures from the third one and once again, you have people saying it "look(s) more worthwhile". Sigh. Hey look, someone wrote the word gullible on the movie theater ceiling!

  6. Contradiction by WormholeFiend · · Score: 4, Insightful

    If the website guy is correct and Vader forcechokes Padme, who dies giving birth, it contradicts Return of the Jedi when Leia tells Luke she vaguely remembers her mother, being sad and all that stuff.

    Way to go, George.

    I bet you could take 80 screenshots of either of the 1st two movies and make them look great, too.
