1. The original trilogy (IV - VI) is much lamer than the new one (I - III). Here’s why:
   • There are only 6 (six) people who can use the Force. One doesn’t even know she has the Force, one dies naturally, and one lets himself be killed in a saber fight. Two of them actually fight, although for a short time, and the last one is manually thrown into a hole.
   • There is a total of 1 (one) real fight with lightsabers. One. And nobody gets killed in it. The fight between Obi-Wan is Vader is not a real fight.
   • There are two Death Stars, and they are both destroyed in a similar manner. Hooray for originality.
   • Vader’s convincing of Luke is paradoxical. “Join the dark side, we have cookies”, but when Luke tells him to go back, he answers “it’s too late for me”. Really convincing.
   • Yoda is both more serious and better animated in the new episodes.
   • Last but not least, Leia is uglier than Padme.
2. There can’t be any anti-trust regulations in the Republic, all the droids are the same.
3. That droid general wielding 4 lightsabers at a time is cool. So is Yoda jumping around and fighting.
4. The end is indeterministic. When are the last three episodes due?
5. At one point, C-3PO says “This is madness”.
6. Every time Anakin speaks about killing, or the power to save Padme, or something like that, the imperial march is heard in the background.
7. Chewbacca, the Wookie supreme commander in episode III (he is with Yoda, after all, he must be supreme) becomes a first mate on a smuggling ship.
8. Anakin is too old to begin trainin, while Luke is fine, although he’s much older than Anakin way at the time.
9. I actually have some idea which scenes were in which episodes. This is not true for The Matrix, LOTR or  Pirates of the Carribean. I might be learning to watch trilogies the right way.
10. Watching them chronologicaly (I - VI) is more logical, but takes away the lement of surprise at the “I am your father” line.

Stumble it!
