: To call the space battle low class is nuts - in '77 no one had seen anything like. It's the same sort of thinking that pushes these guys to do these stupid digital special editions of et, etc.
I didn't say the special effects sucked. It was just the whole space battle scene. The mirror image of it in Episode I showed me how cheesy it was. I farm boy blows up the most technilogically advanced battle cruiser in the galaxy with one bomb. Good hero story but it just doesn't do it for me anymore. The special effects are cheesy to todays standards and Lucas did set those standards. But guy, are you really going to say it was great when it really does suck now. It was greay way back when, but now it sucks.
:So regardless of what i thought of episode I, i can't support ripping the guy down.
I think you feel the same way I do, but your just afraid to say it. I was just being honest and only a few understood what I was trying to say.
