    This is by far the greatest "made up" holiday!! I should be off from work today at home watching all 6 movies back to back to........to back. I'd fast-forward thru good chunks on Episodes II and VI though, those were crap IMO.

    Agreed that it's the best made up holiday ever. I would watch all 6 episodes too, but I'll pass on the Anakin/Padme scenes in Episode 2. Those were some of the most cringe-inducing scenes in cinematic history.

    +1. It's amazing how bad that kid's acting was; I've seen better in B-rated knock-offs. You'd figure something with something as big as Star Wars, they could've found someone who didn't learn acting from a waitress at Hooters

    I don't get all the hate for those scenes!!!!?

    I am a huge SW fan and I know many of my ILK are always blasting those scenes... OH the crappy acting, it's so horrible... blah, blah, blah.

    problem is, GL even said he wanted to show young, forbidden love. Now one also has to realize that for Jedi attachment is forbidden and I'm sure Anakin got a lot of one on one with girls...
    Simply put, he was a huge mis-match of feelings and fears. I mean I'm sure all of you were sly and had all the one liners in tact when you all first had a GF. I think sure, it's corny but hell, so is all love; especially young love.

    lol, I'll second the ewoks for being crap. I think jar jar was more interesting that those teddy bears... but ROTJ as a whole is a great film.

    Sorry, should've went a little further with my comments. The movie was good, the Ewoks were crap. Plus Yoda dies in that one so when you add that to the Ewoks it's a big thumbs down for me. I didn't really care for Jar Jar much either but at least he was funny at times. Darth Maul saved episode I for me. I really hate that they killed him off.

    no kidding... I actually made one when I was a kid... out of cardboard and 2x4's... although stationary isn't as much fun as 300 mph

    What pisses me off is that Lucas is constantly changing the existing movies IV-VI. I am sorry Han is the only shooter against Greedo and Hayden Cristiansen being put in as an apparition at the end of ROTJ just horrible. Lucas was interviewed and said all of the existing movies would never be complete, sucks.
