All I want for christmas..... by milhous :: NR6

I really am looking forward to sitting down one rainy day and watching all six episodes in sequence. Look out Christmas '05! Is Lucas Limited traded on any of the exchanges? Hmmm.......

Unfair Poll by willwaddell :: NR7

I voted for Episode III, but I really think that the poll question is flawed (which is funny because I came up with it). The Star Wars episodes are not really meant to be taken individually. They only achieve their full expression when understood in the larger context of the whole series. I've realized this from watching Episode III. Episode I: The Phantom Menace was widely hated for various reasons, not the least of which was Jar Jar Binks. But when we understand that Episode I was supposed to convey a sense of innocence in contrast to the menacing tenor of Episode III, it is forgivable. Episode II appropriately switches midway from the innocence to the darker aspect we see in the last 30 minutes or so. So, like I said, I voted for Episode III, but I have reservations about the nature of the question.
