Funny you should ask that. As I was signing in I was wondering if anytone started a thread(?) about that yet. Yes, I have seen "Attack of the Clones". Like most, I found it more enjoyable than "Phantom" (though, truthfully, I think "Phantom" gets a bad rap--I mean, obviously it was flawed, but, overall, not a bad way to spend two hrs.), but still left wanting more. I am grateful that Lucas has brought the franchise back but what I really want to see is parts
6-9. Am I crazy or wasn't that the origianl idea--1-9, with 4-6 to start, 1-3 told as a prequel, and finishing with 6-9 updating the origianl story? From what I hear now, this is supposedly it as far as Lucas is concerned. But back to the movie: What I like best is Ewan McGreagor's Alec Ginneus(Sp?) impersonation--by far, the most interesting character, don't 'cha think?

The threads here http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/classic/F19585?thread=184198&latest=1 good return to form I think. Yeah, the first one was bad on first vieweing, but now my daughter insists on watching it 2 times a day, and it's grown on me. Liked Ewan - Kenobi is great! I hear Lucas said that when all of the movies are made, you'll realise why it stops at episode 6. But I reckon they'll have to go back and re-jig the origianls - imagine coming to them for the 1st time after viewing 1 2 and 3. It'll be weird to go from CG characters to a barfull of paper-mache models. I think we've a while to go yet...

But am I crazy or was it not originally slated for episodes 1-9? As far as fixing up the pare mache, I know Lucas has already gone back and done some digital re-editing on 4-6. I'm going to see "Attack" again on Friday...
