You'll notice that in the vast majority of clips from behind the scenes of the prequels, everyone looks completely terrified of Lucas, like they're servants in the presence of a mad king. And the guys trying to make the effects and film work look like they're in total despair the entire time, thinking "how the fuck am I supposed to make this look good?"

Are you implying there are all not awful? What the actual fuck? People out there actually like these and think they're well acted scenes with good dialogue, about characters people care about and don't find deeply annoying?
>>64110249
That's the sad/amusing part about the prequel trilogy behind the scenes stuff where everyone but George is clearly not happy with what's going on but are too afraid to speak up.
>>64110188
Because Liam Neeson
The duels in the prequels are how they're supposed to look, they're supposed to be force Knights not old game of thrones characters, they are pointless and too long tho yes, but the prequels are hilariously bad, two ten year olds could make a more engaging stick fight

Would the films have looked better or worse if George's hard on wasn't for full CGI, but rather for blending or superimposing CGI onto puppetry?
Duel of the Fates.

>>64110808
I actually liked that segment of the Dooku fight.
>>64110808
Seriously though why do people even bother helping Lucas with anything
I realize spielberg milked him for the name Star Wars gave Lucas but why does anyone else bother, he only makes them look like horrible actors
>>64110808
spinning is a good trick
>>64109773
The score was good the VFX were okay at best.
Other than that the Prequels are pretty mediocre. I don't think any of them are better than a 5/10. They just feel like soulless toy commercials without an interesting plot, characters or villains. Sort of like Disney Marvel movies and oddly enough not like TFA at all.
>>64110221
He was used as a reference for cgi.
Movement, lighting, proportions, ect.
This was before Peter Jackson demonstrated the practical uses of mocap in cinema
>>64110739
Puppetry would have held up a lot better and had more soul to it that's for sure.
I don't know about the large battle scenes though, would be difficult to get the scale right.
>>64109805
OMG you can see where the green screen is. Build a fucking set Lucas you hack. Jesus christ.
>>64110739
Yes it would have. The sets and model pieces still hold up well with TPM because they used a lot of practical effects interspersed with CGI.
Just like Starship Troopers did. It's ok to have a good balance of both. The problems with 2 and 3 is that even though they had some models and set pieces, they had far more cgi shots, and Lucas kept throwing more shots in. This taxes the artists and makes it so they do half ass work.
The more time you have to spend on a CGI shot the better it'll look. If you have too many of them and you're just cranking shot after shot, they will not age well.
>>64110789
>tfw I can't even recall a moment of Episode VII's music.
>>64109954
Worst scene in the movie.
>>64110915
Duel of the Fates was literally the only memorable music from the prequels.
>>64110897
>OMG you can see where the green screen is.
It's worse than that, you can see how shitty the camera tracking is. They slide into the foreground and the virtual set pieces around them do not have consistent parallax with them.
>>64110915
I can recall several moments, but all were just from the OT. The Force Theme was in there several times.
Like you, though, I can't remember anything new from it.
>>64110767
they appear in all three prequel movies and you say they have nothing to with the storyline? this makes them more present than uncle owen.
>>64110928
No way. Across the Stars and Battle of the Heroes are also great. Just not AS good.
>>64110915
I like TFA a lot, but yeah it doesn't have any memorable new music, all the music is just original trilogy Star Wars stuff. Probably intentional.
>>64110291
Terrible scene. Way to make the force for babies Lucas.
>Daily reminder there were no fucking children in the original trilogy.

I think it's funny how many kids/faggots support the prequels. It's like a barometer for me to find out if you are a drooling idiot or can actually appreciate the difference between a mediocre movie and a good one.
>>64110928
An anon just posted The Droid Invasion above, and that's immediately recognizable.
If you take out jar jar and the worst bits of acting from anakin jr, the phantom menace is not that bad. I love revenge of the sith and I can't think of anything to complain about it. But man is attack of the clones bad, can't find a positive aspect about it, the cgi fucking sucks, bad acting all around save from ewan and ian. At least it gave us across the stars I guess
>>64110648
Weird Geisha. Emperor not wearing all black. Doesn't even look like Star Wars.
>>64109773
That scene where a tiger thing scratches at Natalie Portman's back and reveals that kosher midriff
>>64110980
Sorry, I'll take that back and add Battle of Heroes to the list. Battle of Heroes is even better than Duel of the Fates but I always remember it as part of Duel of the Fates as opposed to a separate song. Not sure why, probably just made an association because they both play in the literal only good parts of the prequels.
Across the Stars is comparable to anything in TFA. It is from AotC, so what can you really expect though.
>>64110739
Puppetry, practical sets, plastic Clone Armor and plastic models of spaceships like in the OT would have made the prequels fit in with the universe and would have made the movies age much better. Also the actors would have had more to work with because they aren't talking to a green wall the whole movie and that shit shows. There is a reason a good cast looks so fucking stupid in every movie and it's Lucas's terrible decisions. I think everyone was afraid to challenge him on anything and the movies suffered for it.

The prequel trilogy are rated appropriately to their quality rather than the equally as trash highly rated original trilogy.
Lucas values trying something new over producing a good product and has progressively become more lazy as a director, those two things are not a good mix
I can't hate the man because he does seem genuinely passionate to an extent, he's just completely lost his way and now the fans have turned on him he's gone salty
>these shots are too accurate for sand people
>only storm troopers could do this
>proceed to literally not hit a single named character in the entire trilogy
>even tho they are right next to them
Don't get me started on the first scene where they board Leias ship and the scene is just a clusterfuck of green and red, with shots literally coming from the roof and floor, and don't get me started on Luke and leias swing, where any of the stormstroopers could crouch down, point their gun up under the door and shoot them
Honestly the original trilogy is JUST as bad
The only redeeming factor in either of those trilogies are literally the same thing

It's more like Kasdan turned him down to come back for the Prequels and because of that the Prequels are pretty bad. Kasdan came back for Episode 7 because he knew he wouldn't have to work with George again. I will always like George for being involved with the original trilogy but the best bits of those movies had nothing to do with him it was all Kasdan. George is way better when he has someone else to bounce off of. George writing the scripts and doing all the art direction was a huge mistake, thats why we had things like Jar Jar, convoluted space senate plots, 50s diners and a very awkward love story along with too much cgi and a lack of practical effects then ultimately a bunch of actors looking like idiots because there is no henson puppetry but rather a green wall to emote in front of.
When music comes up nobody mentions the track that plays in Revenge when the jedi are killed during Order 6 or whatever.
That track, and maybe that montage itself, is actually pretty touching.
>>64110808
The lighting in this scene is really great, it's a shame that everything apart from the lighting sucks.
So why dated CGI is worse than dated practical effects if they both look fake?
>>64111517
>>64111526
Revisionists history is a bitch man.
The original trilogy is like an 8, 9 and 7 out of 10 for me. None of them perfect and sort of a range of quality.
the prequel trilogy is like a 4, 5 and 6 out of 10. While they gradually got better...none of them are really good and rise beyond mediocre.
Basically I agree with >>64111625 that Kasdan turning down Lucas to come back for the Prequels screwed Lucas over pretty hard. Without the guy that gave him the most critical/financial success the prequels never really worked. It simply had too much Lucas in them.
>I only like Star Wars movies that involve these mother fuckers.

>>64111618

>>64109773
I disagree about the "set pieces." The biggest problem is there were no practical sets built. You can literally see where the green screen ends in most shots. I also disagree about the "great visual effects" even at the time the CG looked jarring and fake. Not using puppets, plastic models and practical sets were a huge mistake.
Honestly even the music isn't that great, I'd rather listen to Wagner or something.
The prequels are IRREDEEMABLE
>>64111177
>Eating fruit with a knife and fork

The meme choirs ruin these. And Duel of the Fates is so big for such an irrelevant fight that it's almost comical. That's not Williams' fault.

>>64112270
The thing with the prequels is they have so much cool 'stuff' in them like the clone trooper hardware, spaceships, droids etc. but they fall flat as movies.
It's such a shame as some of the concepts in there are interesting but as the Plinket reviews show us, the execution is fucking awful.
>>64112173
>>64112349
I do like the early Star Destroyers desu senpai
Kind of unsure why they had to broadside the droid ships though
>>64112349
I agree with the Plinket reviews. The movies had all the elements and tools to be good but they ended up being boring because Lucas was unchallenged by his peers and Kasdan wasn't involved. It's fine if people like them but I just can't accept them as anything other than mediocre and wasted opportunities. Don't plan on ever watching them again.

>>64112633
He told Lucas he didn't want to be involved with prequels because George should do his own vision. And we all know how that turned out. It's also likely Kasdan didn't enjoy working with Lucas all that much. I believe he signed on to do Episode 7 because he knew Lucas was out. TFA was pretty good. I'm thinking of seeing it a second time in theaters with a buddy I haven't seen in awhile who hasn't seen it yet.

I'm okay with this ranking.
What are your thoughts on the CG cartoons and the EU in general?
Also this seems like the thread to ask, is the new Battlefront worth buying? I was thinking of picking up a new console after not having one for years but I haven't heard great things about the new SW game.
Star Wars is at it's best when focused on politics and the decisions characters have to make. This is why the prequels are the better than the OT, why TFA is average, and why all the best episodes of Clone Wars CG don't involve fighting.
>>64113306
hahahahahahahh
>>64109805
You can see the wall rendering and the end of the green screen. What total shit.
>>64113228
>Also this seems like the thread to ask, is the new Battlefront worth buying?
its the most refreshing shooter in years. no ads is a godsend.
all the criticisms are from people who expected either a starwars skinned battlefield or an exact replica of the old battlefront games. they all wanted something else
it could do with more maps tho
>>64113192
>TFA over ROTJ
Shit list.
>>64113185
Those couches are definitely a 2D image. George probably decided to use this scene sometime late and they had no time to work on it.
>>64113405
the ewoks sequence was overlong and kinda unnecessary
>>64113228
>What are your thoughts on the CG cartoons and the EU in general?
I mostly just ignore the expanded universe as glorified fan fiction, at the point in which I found out that a magic mountain that cries and it's tears heal ewoks I gave up on it, I have the films and that's more than enough for me.
As for the CG cartoons, I've never actually watched them, I caught a brief few minutes of the Clone Wars movie they did on TV years ago, not enough to really form an opinion on it, I've been interested to watch the tv series they've made but have always been put of by the prequels feel to them, that being monotone dialogue with flashy action sequences, not really my thing but I will give them a proper viewing one day.
>is the new Battlefront worth buying?
got it for Christmas, have only really played about half an hour of it, if you want a good simulator for being in a Star Wars battle then it's great, however, if you want an in depth shooter with lots of room for exploring different tactics, styles of gameplay and stuff like that then you'll be dissapointed
>>64113228
Battlefront is okay, but definitely not worth the money in terms of content, and is getting worse each hour as more kids acquire the retarded jump pack and the EZ mode pistol.
Current sale is using game as loss leader to get more DLC season pass sales
>>64113405
suck my stump lad.
>>64112964
>>64113372
genuinely not bait. anyone who disagrees likely had their opinion shaped by watching the ot first and now expect nothing but retreads of that
those new to the franchise are much more open minded about this
>>64113397
No ads? Whats that mean?
I played the old Battlefront games years ago and enjoyed them though they had some balancing issues if I remember correctly. New game looks pretty based on the commercials I've seen. Might buy it. Which system has the most players or w/e for it?
>>64110204

It sounds like it's somewhat fun but not really very deep. I might wait for some DLC. Looking to get a new console more for apps not a big gamer person really. Though if I buy a game I'd like there to be alot of customization and high learning curve if that makes sense. Cheers guys.

lucas and the beast have the same fat chin.

ads = aim down sights
its just how all modern shooters require you to hold down L2 if you want any chance in a gunfight, which always slows your characters movement wayyyyyy down and promotes camping. in battlefront you arent penalised for not zooming in which promotes aiming and movement together. refrshing a sfukk
>>64109773
The prequels have problems, sure, but I honestly do believe they were the first victims of hype culture. They honestly aren't that bad as movies. The only thing I would say is that TPM and AotC probably should have been merged into one movie and the second in the trilogy should have occurred during the clone wars and there should have been less reliance on special effects.
>>64113765
>They honestly aren't that bad as movies.
They're pretty mediocre sci-fi fare. I doubt people would still be speaking about them if they didn't have the words "Star Wars" on their titles.
>>64113765
>Would have, should have, could have
Honestly if you put Star Wars on it you can't expect people not to get hype and hold them up to a higher standard automatically. That's why the prequels were so mediocre not just with internal problems and poor film decision making but simply they couldn't live up to the reputation and goodwill fans had for it over the years.
If they didn't use the Star Wars branding I doubt they would have even been greenlit at all.
>>64114000
this applies so much more to TFA than the prequels
>>64114140
>If they didn't use the Star Wars branding I doubt they would have even been greenlit at all.
George Lucas would have been fired before he even had actors to direct because he couldn't produce a competent script.
>>64112349
i hate the prequels as much as anybody but
most "normies" like them or, if you prefer, don't think about them as much as you nerds so they have no reason to hate them
>Rick McCallum: How successful the relationship with the director is determines how well the movie goes.
>>64114155
>>64113765
WRONG!
>>64114211
I hate the prequels too and I think most normies don't like them at all and are kind of "over" Star Wars. Thats why TFA being watchable and entertaining is such a big deal right now and probably why every site and board is talking about this movie right now.
>>64109773
Ewan Obi-Wan as a character was a pretty likeable dude.
You just see him desperately wanting to be a good teacher but Anakin was just too much of a whiny asshole of a student.
>>64111824
More civilized age
>>64114351
Not really Obi-Wan was a whiny asshole in the prequels too.
Basically everyone was.
>All have Lucas's voice
>>64114576
Anyone who's surrounded by "I don't sense anything" Qui Gon, Jar Jar and Jake Anakin would be whiny and pissed all the time.
>>64110915
After listening to the OST only 3 themes stand out. Reys theme, the Resistance theme and the music used when rey is climbing the stairs.
>>64109773

>>64113504
>Obi-Wan's landing
Ewan just fucking jumped didn't he. Just did a little hop on the spot.
>>64114663
Having a movie populated by annoying and boring characters isn't an excuse to why the "main" characters can be whiny assholes.
>>64114790
Thats funny, I thought those were the worst parts.
>>64114852
Yes it is. It's a perfectly reasonable reaction.
But I guess you just aren't a human bean like all the cgi.
>>64114881
>I thought
I'll take your word for it.
>>64114576
There's Anakin whiny asshole, and whiny everyone else. Nothing comes close.
>>64114948
>I guess you just aren't a human bean like all the cgi
Wat?
Anyway, sorry but you can justify characters being poorly executed because the script and concepts weren't all there. The prequels were simply mediocre and if you were a little kid when they came out and like them...that's fine but don't pretend they were good or that Lucas intended for everyone to come off like imbeciles, that's simply his piss poor direction and nothing else.
>>64109773
the music, any prequel movie has a much better score than TFA
>>64114951
Now you're making sense anon!
>>64114881
The swings are a diversionary tactic. It seems pretty obvious.
>>64115127
Eh the only good score was duel of the fates and even that one was full of meme choruses and hasn't aged very well.
The prequels were pretty shit and if you've watched any of them more than once, you've been keked.
>>64115195
More like the whole prequel trilogy was a "diversionary tactic."
>>64115089
I don't recall any part of the post saying the prequels weren't mediocre or shitty. Is prequel hate so far up your ass?
>>64115252
>Anyone who's surrounded by "I don't sense anything" Qui Gon, Jar Jar and Jake Anakin would be whiny and pissed all the time.
>Yes it is. It's a perfectly reasonable reaction.
The prequel's apologist is strong in you.
Hurr durr Jar Jar is annoying so Obi Wan can be a little shit too amiright?? Go to hell.
>>64114576
No one is likeable in TPM
Ewan is the only one who's likeable in AotC
Ewan, along with Ian and Hayden, are the only ones who're likeable in RotS
Ewan wins though his quantity of quality

the prequels had a lot of new memorable awesome themes in their music, unlike the new movie. Bland flick, bland music
>>64113167
here's yours, pleb
>>64115311
It's hard to get into a series of movies where the main character isn't clearly defined and there is no real plot to speak of. Especially when every character in said movies seems confused about what they are supposed to do and is unlikeable as fuck. At this point I see the prequels as one of the biggest blunders with a popular franchise in cinematic history. No reason to rewatch them imo.
>>64114576
And in AoTC? In RoTS? Obi-Wan is the only likeable character in the film and most aPT haters agree on that.
Even calling jar jar and jake llyod 'pathetic life forms' is amusing.
>>64115387
>Prequels
>Memorable
Pick one.
