OT- Star Wars Episode II Title Released

[dmm]

Am I the only one who though JarJar was funny?

Agree about the title, though. Sounds like a B movie from the '50s.

Speaking of movies to look forward to, how about "The Lord of the Rings"?

Worth going to see, but what's the betting they introduce some kind of cute, annoying JarJar kiddie interest character to fk it all up. Perhaps they'll turn Smaug into a friendly little dog-sized dragon who does ute little tricks...

Hopefully not, the producer is apparently a BIG fan of Tolkien, so I hope he is 'true' to the book and does NOT add things (and keeps Gollum ugly!), apparently this will be a trilogy movie (ie, 3books, 3movies), ISTR....

That and waiting for the 'Apes' sequel...the new one rocks!!

And heres hoping Bakula will be good on Enterprise.......

I think Smaug was in another book.. I cant quite recal the name of the giant spider that made an apearance in LoTR, but im betting she does not make the movie. The ring-wraiths look like standard fare ring-wraiths, but i have not seen any pics yet of their flying mounts. I saw a wireframe of gollum, and it certainly passes muster. Rumor has it that they have a quite glorious CG ballrog, but I think its under tight wraps.

Smaug was from The Hobbit.

I had heard that they were trying to make the LOTR movies follow the books as closely as possible. Either way, I can't really see them cutting out the Shelobs Liar part of the story as the events at shelobs lair/cirith ungol are a significant point in the story.

Attack of the Clones.....

WHAT THE HELL is thier problem. When I go to the theater, I want to see good, sci-fi and fantasy. Not some cheesy Ed Wood Plan 9 From Outer Space wannabe.
