Attack Of The Clones!

[Cateran Emperor]

Frankly, yes, A New Hope does generate a feeling of drama. Attack of the Clones is an awful title, and it will turn away people who were not fans as huge as we are.

Rando, I too can think of a large number of movies that were truly bad (MST3K started showing me truly bad movies years ago, and that was an excellent selection as it stands. However, Episode I, as has been stated, is a kiddie movie. For me, an older than kiddie viewer, it was bad because of that. Okay, so not "Plan 9 from Outer Space" bad, but it was still awful compared to the original trilogy.

My only fleeting hope is that Lucas made this movie like the original trilogy, then used the name to drive off everyone who was not a true fan of the series. Of course, that is a really fleeting thought indeed. When the actors are insulting and laughing the name of the movie, (Ewan McGregor) you know something's wrong.

Have to agree with the previous sentiment, "Attack of the Clones" is just silly. Rando is correct in that the originals had cheesy names too, but as a rule, the word "Attack" is reserved for B movies and bad action flicks. I can only hope that Lucas's latest will be neither.

It's just a cookie-cutter title, though. Maybe the movie will be better. Maybe Jar Jar will be tossed out an airlock.

Maybe Jar Jar will be tossed out an airlock.

...in the first scene.

at least the title is not Attack of the Killer Clones!!!

and AFAIK Jar Jar plays an even greater role in part II than in part eins
