I just never got too interested in that series.

Haha well Star Wars is one of the most overhyped things ever.

If you ever get bored you should really watch Leon : The Professional though,it's pretty violent but such a fantastic movie, one of my all time favorites. Gary Oldman really was cheated on not getting any Oscar that year.

Couldn't agree more, on all counts. When I first watched it I was expecting the violence but was rather surprised by just how poignant it was at times. I've always been of mind that Gary Oldman is exceptional.

Gary Oldman... where have I heard that name before?

...Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy. That's it.

He's Sirius Black too. O.o

Yeah he has had quite a lot of really good roles, it's probably the best actor who has not even been nominated for an Oscar for some weird reason.

He's so angry in Leon! :lol:


Also so good in the fifth element.

Edit : Just realized I was going very off topic, haha sorry didn't mean to Serg.

You've probably seen The Dark Knight or Batman Begins. He's in that. But usually he plays villains like in one of my favorite movies AIR FORCE ONE, with Harrison Ford as protagonist <3 and Gary Oldman as a terrorist hijacker. It's a great movie! It's a little violent but its mostly gunfights and fist fights (average hollywood blockbuster violence) but I love Harrison Ford so much I cheer for him whenever he beats up a bad guy :p

Oh and I agree the prequels were definitely not as good as the originals but we all saw them just because we sort of had to know and hoped they may be good. To Ewan Mcgregor, Natalie Portman and somewhat Hayden C, Starwars helped progress their career. Hayden is somewhat because it did the same thing that it did to Mark Hamill in regards to too much fame and going to the top sort of didn't give much place for his career to go compared to Ford who was supporting character and then got indiana Jones and that jump started his career awesomely!

btw they are re-releasing all the SW films in 3D (a money scam practically) but it will be cool to see them in a cinema, especially the orignal 3, unfortunately they are going in "chronological order" so it won't be until 2015 when a good SW movie comes out :p

I've actually already seen the original three in the theater when the re-released them after being digitally remastered in the late nineties. It was fun to see. I don't think I'll be shelling out for the 3D versions though; it's a gimmick that I just don't find to be worth it.

Well some cinemas will have them in 2D as well, and I remember when they re-released them in like 1999, I went to see Starwars: A New Hope during that with my dad. In fact that's the first movie I remember actually going to a Cinema to see. It was either that or Mission Impossible II, but I think this happened first

Fitting since the first movie set I got was Starwars on my 3rd B-day, on VHS :p Anyway I've never seen EP V and VI on a cinema so those I am looking forward to. I am curious as to what they will do with that. I am not totally saying I won't see them in 3D, since it won't even be close to quality of HUGO, but perhaps there is something worth in 3D, I will wait for the reviews.

The third one was quite good actually. Except for dwarf Vader which was kind of weird.

Well, I blame George Lucas for the prequels. ATTACK OF THE CLONES was ok, but the other two were a mess.

I think Chloe was talking about BLACK SWAN when she said Natalie was her favourite actress, but talking about her whole career and not just that movie alone.
