Your opinion is cool, and ultimately irrelevant, because shit tons of people love Bethesda games for reasons other than looking pretty.

If someone made a Star Wars version of Fallout 3 or Skyrim, it would kick 10 million kinds of ass.

I did edit in the following before you posted this...


I'm sure if they did come out with a Star Wars game I'd be stupid enough to buy it. And then stop playing it a day later because I'm bored to death.

Anyway, you shouldn't take it so personally. It's not like you're Bethesda, and I'm slamming games you created. Play whatever the hell you want.

And yes, 1313 looked awesome.

So it's official, 1313 was apparently a Boba Fett-centric game. That sucks even worse now.


Wonder how long this lasts. I'm surprised it's made it this long.

I loved Fallout 3. When it first came out I was laid off and I bet I spent an average of 6 hours a day on that thing the first two months.

To me it's like FFX - one of those games I can pull out every 4-6 months and just get hooked by all over again...

Three years before his 1977 film, George Lucas put down on paper his first story set in a galaxy far, far away-a tale of fantastic adventures, daring escapes, "lazer swords," romance, and monsters. A story of Jedi Annikin Starkiller and General Luke Skywalker, an alien named Han Solo, and evil Sith Knights. The screenplay was titled The Star Wars!
God. That sounds ****ing horrible.

The thing is, Lucas has always been out of his ****ing mind. He's always needed somebody to filter the idiocy out of his genius. That happened during the first three movies - the last three, well, his word was law, we got ****ing horrible, and all his minions told him it was great.

Which was a worse Lucas grudge **** of fans - the prequels, or Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull?

I hate to admit it but I liked Crystal Skulls. I disliked it the first time I watched it back in 2008 but I've watched it a couple time in the past six months and really enjoyed it. I think my initial expectations were too high.

It's certainly better, IMO, than Temple of Doom.

Temple of Doom was a strange flick. I didn't hate it, but it's certainly my least favorite of the Indy films. As for that, Indy surviving a nuke blast in a lead fridge and those ****ing monkeys pushed even MY fandom. QUIT TRYING TO SELL EWOKS IN EVERY ****ING MOVIE, DARTH LUCAS!!

Lucas just never, ever needs to direct again. Ever. (And don't get me started on Red Tails, either. That movei SHOULD HAVE been a kick ass movie.)

It's really not that uncommon. Lucas is a genius when it comes to stories, creating strange new worlds creating exciting characters. His imagination is basically unparalleled in the history of cinema.

His weaknesses are screenwriting and directing. While he's not exactly a hack (American Graffiti and the original Star Wars), the screenplays and direction of his post-Star Wars work has left much to be desired.

that is pretty much where I am.

they tried to make temple of doom some kind of dark comedy in my opinion. it was like they were trying for laughs in as many scenes as they could. Considering the subject matter of the film itself they needed to make it more serious like Raiders.

I thought Temple of Doom sucked and sucked hard. I hated it the first time I saw it and the couple of times I've seen it since. I'll never watch it again.

And I'll never watch Crystal Skull. It does not exist in my world.

The Temple of Doom is hilarious. I don't understand everyone's opposition.

Temple of Doom is a good movie that compares poorly to Raiders because it is great.

Crystal Skull is an abortion.
