Star Wars Fans, Faves and Freaks Threads Merged

[Arrowhead6789]

This is the first time in history that all geek's and nerd's are united together on May 19, 2005 too see Star Wars Episode III Revenge of The Sith. Now they tell me to tell you are you a nerd, geek, a fan or just a movie goer?

[Karem-Knight]

A fan

[Swordmaster]

A fan who happens to know alot about Star Wars

[Peacekeeper]

Big fan of the OT, movie-goer of the SW prequels, but looking forward to ROTS:spidey:.

[The Lizard]

I'm a member of the Anti Spam and Incorrect Apostrophe-Usage Police.

[Master Chief]

I'm a fan. I like all the movies, and buy some merchandise here and there. I'm not crazy about the franchise, but I like it.

[The Green Goblin]

Total Star Wars geek, but don't care for any of the EU crap, which would make you a "nerd" I think. :confused:

[ImTheWombat]

Im a fan. I see the movies and enjoy them, but i don't buy any merchandise (besides like some action figures from when i was little)

[DorkyFresh]

Where's the option for "dork"????

[ultra_shadow87]

I'm a fan, but i've got the DVD's and a couple of the games, but i didn't get 'em just 'cause they were about star wars, i bought them 'cause they're fun

[imagerian27]

Fan Fan Fan

[huskerwebhead]

I am a geek....but I won't be united seeing ROTS. I don't plan on seeing it.

[Dr. MIX]

I'm not a fanatic, but I enjoy watching the films and playing the games occasionaly, so I'm guessing I'm a fan.

[Lethal Venom]

I'm just a fan :)

[Wilhelm-Scream]

I'm so sick of all these people saying "meh,I'm not even gonna see it."
Yes you ARE :rolleyes:
Everyone's going to see it.

[Dr. MIX]

I am a geek....but I won't be united seeing ROTS. I don't plan on seeing it.

Right :rolleyes:

[Dr.Fear]

im an average movie goer wholikes sci-films,not really a huge fan.

[Spidey-Bat]

I'm a member of the Anti Spam and Incorrect Apostrophe-Usage Police.

Me too.

I'm somewhere between fan and movie-goer

[Kable24]

A fan of the movies...All of them. Played with the toys as a kid.

[Arrowhead6789]

I'am surprised to see low number's on Geek's and Nerd's. Maybe they are not here and probally at the line as we speak!

[eat aliens]

I'm a comic book geek but not a star wars nerd/geek. I consider myself a fan of the Star Wars movies but not anymore than I'm a fan of any other movie I like. But very much looking forward to Revenge of the Sith.

[huskerwebhead]

I'm so sick of all these people saying "meh,I'm not even gonna see it."
Yes you ARE :rolleyes:
Everyone's going to see it.

Why is it so hard to believe? I liked the originals, but they aren't the end all-be all of movies for me. I just never really cared that much.

[DACrowe]

What qualifies you as a fan? A considerable about of knowledge and love for the series and franchise. You have followed it and enjoyed MOST mof the movies.

That is what I am.

How can you tell if you're a geek?

-If you can name any of the Jedi Council besides Yoda and Mace Windu.

-If you know any other Jedi besides the above two and Obi-Wan, Anakin, and Qui-Gon Jinn.

If you still buy Star Wars toys and merchandise (other than the free stuff when you buy a coke at McDonald's or something) and you are over the age of 12 or 13. Maybe 14.

-If you will go to the movies dressed as a Jedi/Sith Lord/Stormtrooper/Clone Trooper/Darth Vader/any character of the Star Wars universe not covered in this sentence.

-If you still insist that that the movie TPM is a high quality movie.

-George Lucas is an artist who had the whole thing written since the beginning and you also still insist that Lucas never sold himself out to pander to the kiddies and teen demographics.

-If you can name any of hte animals on Hoth.

-If you can tell me what the expanded Universe says happened to the characters after the original trilogy.



If you do or could answer any of the above questions/statements you are a Star Wars geek.

That I am not, I'm a Spider-Man geek! ;) :p

Who is your favourite Star Wars character/s? I apologise if there already has been a thread like this however I'm too lazy to find out!!

Mine is Anakin Skywalker and then Han Solo.

[Spidey-Bat]

Obi-Wan Kenobi

(BTW, should have made a poll with this)

[Golgo-13]

Anakin and Palpatine.

[The Storm]

Obi-Wan Kenobi

(BTW, should have made a poll with this)

I know but there are no enough options. I meant to say in the first post, it can be any character from any film, sorry.

[MLX]

Mace Windu, Jango Fett and Obi-Wan Kenobi

[Kable24]

In no particular order

Darth Vader
Darth Maul
Jango Fett
Boba Fett
Yoda
Mace Windu


Wedge Antilles!!!

[Smegger56]

Empire Strikes Back (near perfection)
Revenge of the Sith (star wars is back with a vengence)
Return of the Jedi (best space battle ever)
A New Hope (inspired me)
Attack of the Clones (Yoda fights)
Phantom Menace (bits were good)

[Smegger56]

Revenge of the Sith (this WILL change)
Empire Strikes Back
A New Hope
Attack of the Clones
The Phantom Menace
Return of the Jedi

I gotta know... why is return of the Jedi last on your list :confused: ?????

[Spidey-Bat]

Empire Strikes Back (was always at the edge of my seat)
Return of the Jedi (kind of boring, but great climax)
A New Hope (kinda boring with the plot development, but still great)
Revenge of the Sith (haven't seen it, but doubt it'll be better than the OT)
The Phantom Menace (It still had a Star Wars feel. Just exclude the Jake Llyod and Gungan scenes)
Attack of the Clones (the most forced love relationship ever and boring until the end, which sucks. Only good in giving the Fett-fans Jango, who sucks)

[Daisy]

I gotta know... why is return of the Jedi last on your list :confused: ?????


Maybe he just couldn't overlook the Ewoks like a lot of the rest of us do? :o

I'm a huge fan of the movies, I have action figures of all characters that weilded a lightsaber, I have the nine Master Replica versions of lightsabers (including the ultra-rare Palpatine with a blue lightsaber), I have a Darth Vader helmet, T-shirts, posters, standees. I am nurturing my daughter to like Star Wars.

By the way, a small errata: the ultra-rare Palpatine with a blue lightsaber is actually an action figure, not one of the nine Master Replica lightsabers. Sorry.

[trombonemaestro]

if anyone has paid any attention to previous posts of mine, you know that I've only recently gotten into this whole Star Wars universe thing. Just finished watching Empire Strikes Back a little while ago, haven't watched ROTJ yet, but I watched RotS, last night, and I don't really think I have to see ROTJ. RotS was awesome. Should I see ROTJ?

[Arrowhead6789]

trombonemaestro you should. Why? Because you see Anakin fulfilling his destiny as the chosen one.

[Rage]

I always like Han Solo the best!
Darth Vader is a close second
rounding out the top three is Jabba the Hutt (from ROTJ...not the new stuff)

Honourable mention goes to Darth Maul, Obi wan and Chewie

Rage

[DorkyFresh]

Obi Wan
Darth Vader (not Anakin)
Han Solo
Darth Maul
Artoo

[Rage]

Yeah...Darth Vader...not Anakin!!! Good call DorkyFresh!!

Although...Anakin in Ep III was by far the best and I count that character as Darth Vader :D

Obi-wan and Vader also were awesome

Best Star Wars Movies
1. Revenge of the Sith
2. The Empire Strikes Back
3. Return of the Jedi
4. A New Hope
5. The Phantom Menace
6. Attack of the Clones

All these movies make up, regardless of order, makes Star Wars the best movie saga of all.

[eat aliens]

Mace Windu
Darth Vader
The Ewoks....:o

[The Storm]

Love the Ewoks!

[Erzengel]

In the prequels:
Obi-Wan Kenobi - From Jedi Padawan to Jedi Knight to Jedi Master
His character was very well done. Because of his role, Obi-Wan Kenobi is not one of my top favorites because of the Episodes I through III.

Yoda
Lucas even said it. Yoda with the lightsaber kicking ass is what the fans wanted. They got a lil of it in Attack of the Clones but it was solidified in Revenge of the Sith with Yoda on Kassyk, fighting the Clonetroopers, shrugging the Emperor's Guards into the wall, and later against the Emperor.

Original Trilogy:
I always liked Luke. Like Obi-Wan in the prequels, Luke grows from the simple farm boy on Tatooine to a full fledged Jedi Knight at the end of Return of the Jedi.

Han Solo. Maybe because he reminds me of my best friend, or the fact that it's Harrison Ford. No one else could bring cocky, and cool like this character did.

Yoda Different from the prequels, Yoda's wisdom compensates from the lack of lightsaber winning and shows us there's more to the "Force" than just lightsaber skills.

[Goldenage Batman]

Favorite Jedi Masters: Favorite Sith Lords: Favorite Characters:
Kit Fisto Darth Sidious Yoda
Shaak Ti Darth Vader Darth Sidious

[Immortalfire]

Qui-Gon Jinn
Old Obi-Wan Kenobi
Luke Skywalker
Wedge Antilles
Han Solo

[The Amazing Lee]

Luke Skywalker is a firm favourite. I just feel that you can relate to him alot more than Anakin and I prefer the story he leads.

More epic in my opinion.

Although i haven't seen Episode 3 yet.

[Pink Ranger]

Jar Jar Binks is my favorite character.






FOR ME TO POOP ON!!!

[svfreakofweek]

Okay when I was at the movies, I saw mace, darth, fat leia, and a couple hans. This one little kid looked like harry potter, then went up to mace and said "Awww master windu, how are you tonight?" It was funny cause the guy was so tall he just walked away from the kid, and the kid started to cry LOL.

[trombonemaestro]

The Top 12 Things Uttered by Yoda While Making Love
************************************************** *

12. "Ahhh! Yoda's little friend seek you!"

11. "Excuse me while I put a shield on my saber,
Sweetheart."

10. "Now you know why they put one of me in every
Happy Meal, do you."

9. "Cuddling, afterplay -- a Jedi craves not these
things."

8. "Down here, I am. Find a ladder, must I!"

7. "Do me or do me not -- there is no try."

6. "Early must I rise. Leave now must you!"

5. "You know, this would be a lot more fun without
Frank Oz's hand up my ass."

4. "Happens to every guy sometimes this does."

3. "When 900 years old you get, Viagra you need too,
hmmmmm?"

2. "Who's your Jedi master? WHO'S your Jedi Master?"

1. "Ow, ow, OW! On my ear you are!"

[Kmack]

YES. I saw three Dark Vadar's, about two girls with the Princess Leia hairdo, and two Chewboccas:D Oh, and a clone soldier.

I'm a Babylon 5 fan.

One guy seriously looked like the kid from Napoleon Dynamite trying to be dressed up as Han Solo. It was just sad :(

[Arrowhead6789]

Me I'am half geek and half fan.

[That-Guy]

We had several Vaders, 2 Darth Mauls, a bunch of Jedi, some hotties dressed like Padme, and a guy with a Yoda mask and a bathrobe.

Was everyone fat you saw? I saw a fat leia she was nasty

[hey yo its sean]

I saw a couple of jedi, Darth Vader, and a fat Darth Maul.

[Future Prez]

I haven't seen it myself, but in my local paper, some girl dressed as Yoda complete w/ mask made cover page for being the first to see it in our county.

[Kable24]

Was everyone fat you saw? I saw a fat leia she was nasty


The couple people dressed up I saw were not fat. Although a lot of people in line looked the stereotypical "geeky" and "dirty/greasy" greasy hair that is. In my theater I was one of maybe 3 or 4 who had a woman with them.

[GoblinScrier]

I saw a chewbacca, a goth Amidala (I kid you not), a cigarette smoking Darth Maul, and a very detailed make up job to look like Darth Sidious !

[Keymaker]

I'll see it only tomorrow :(

[thehippie]

at the one i went to there were numerous Jedi, a Darth Vader, a leia, yoda, and then this one guy came as a storm trooper. his costume was awesome plus evidently he made it himself.....or so he says.

here is a pic of the guy dressed as Yoda that appeared in the local paper on thursday.

[Casius--J]

A big fan would be what i'd say.

[Erzengel]

See I've always had a discussion between what is a geek, a nerd or a dork?

A nerd is someone who's smart, doesn't participate in sports or any type of athletics.

A geek is someone into sci fi, role playing games, he may or may not be smart (nerd).

A dork I someone who isn't smart, doesn't do sports or the interests but looks like and acts like a "nerd or geek".

[Captain_Obvious]

What qualifies you as a fan? A considerable about of knowledge and love for the series and franchise. You have followed it and enjoyed MOST mof the movies.

That is what I am.

How can you tell if you're a geek?

-If you can name any of the Jedi Council besides Yoda and Mace Windu.

-If you know any other Jedi besides the above two and Obi-Wan, Anakin, and Qui-Gon Jinn.

If you still buy Star Wars toys and merchandise (other than the free stuff when you buy a coke at McDonald's or something) and you are over the age of 12 or 13. Maybe 14.

-If you will go to the movies dressed as a Jedi/Sith Lord/Stormtrooper/Clone Trooper/Darth Vader/any character of the Star Wars universe not covered in this sentence.

-If you still insist that that the movie TPM is a high quality movie.

-George Lucas is an artist who had the whole thing written since the beginning and you also still insist that Lucas never sold himself out to pander to the kiddies and teen demographics.

-If you can name any of hte animals on Hoth.

-If you can tell me what the expanded Universe says happened to the characters after the original trilogy.



If you do or could answer any of the above questions/statements you are a Star Wars geek.

That I am not, I'm a Spider-Man geek! ;) :p

but I still haven't really looked further into Star Wars than the 6 movies...I'll say nerd :confused:

[The Lumberjack]

I didnt see anyone dressed up, but my friend had a lightsaber in his pocket
You sure he wasn't just happy to see you?

[Erzengel]

I got 6 too.

[Captain_Obvious]

My dad was Obi-Wan, 4 or 5 Bounty Hunter masks, a fully equipped Darth Vader COMPLETE with voice changer, lot of guys with their versions of Darth Maul face paint.

Other than that, lots of people in cloaks and lightsabers

[Avalanche]

Oh, we don't do that sort of thing over here in the UK.

I'm surprised at how many people like The Phantom Menace more than Attack of the Clones.. I like AOTC.




Am i sick..? :(

[Keymaker]

Oh, we don't do that sort of thing over here in the UK.
If someone would do something like this where i live, there would be several articles about him/her in the newspapers and/or he/she would be on the news :D

[DACrowe]

It is sad really when you see someone dressed up.

You just feel so bad for them there.

[DACrowe]

Why is Revenge of the Sith creeping so high on your lists? It is in no way whatsoever as imanginitive, inventive, or as pure fun and entertaining as the orginal SW movie.

ROTJ had the Ewoks, but beyond those things (and they only really annoyed me with their comedic war tactics and their dancing at the end) it was a very good movie. Not nearly as powerful or emotional (and in this case, depressing) as ESB nor as pure fun and inventive as SW but damn good.

ROTS redeemed Lucas. It is good. But the pacing is a bit ackward and it is not as much "imaginitive" or powerful. The story and the acting (yes the acting was fairly good this time) sold it. As did the score and the themes, but the diologue was usually as poor as the other two prequels (save for Palpatine's lines) and as I said it dragged along.

With that said I loved ROTS and will see it again in theaters.

AOTC was pretty good, but Anakin was just written so petulant in that. If he was written more mature (kind of like how he was in ROTS) the movie would have been far better. TPM suffered from the first half being too dull, the diologue trite (like the other two prequels) and between Jake Lloyd's terrible acting and him being written like the happiest boy in the world and not a slave full of anger sank that movie (and then the climax salvaged it a little).

I wanted to dress up as a jedi with a chainsaw but they accept chainsaw in the theatres

[hitmanyr2k]

1. Empire Strikes Back - This movie will always be the king

2(tie). Star Wars/ROTJ - It's too difficult to choose between these 2.

[Helghast]

Anyone see anybody with a ForceFX (google it) saber? If I went last night I'd prolly be the only one there with one. :(

[Banshee]

This toolbag in my theater had one, he was poking people in the ass with it as they walked by. On top of that he had his collar popped like a total douchbag...

[TheVileOne]

I saw one guy with a full Vader costume including a nifty light-up lightsaber. This was at an early advance screening, not the midnight shows. The only thing was that the guy wearing the Vader costume weighed like 400 lbs. So picture that for a second.

[The Storm]

At the midnight showing at my place I took Darth Vader and Darth Maul to there seats.

[<(o_o)>]

I can't judge the movies individually, just like Lord Of The Rings consists of 3 different movies it is still 1 gigantic story, same with Star Wars, although it consists of 6 different movies & skips around a bit it will now & forever be considered one gigantic story. Just like every other movie there will be parts that people don't like about it, but viewing it as a whole, one could say that Star Wars in general was the greatest movie ever made. To bad they can't edit all 6 together into one movie.

[JcDc]

Nope, I like AOTC more than TPM as well :up: You are alright in my book :D

[Batsjr]

lol there was this one guy who wore a black bucket for a helmet...black garbage back for a cape and then a red cut off broom handle it was a sad suit...lol

[Spidey-Bat]

Nope, I like AOTC more than TPM as well :up: You are alright in my book :D
Not in mine. TPM had a more SW feel to it and it had Liam Neeson and Darth Maul. AOTC had a whiney punk and a lonely, old man

[Spider-Fan]

Return pf the Jedi / The Empire Strikes Back (They were equal)
A New Hope
Revenge of the Sith (but was nearly as good as ANH)
Attack of the Clones
The Phantom Menace

[caretaker14]

I went as a Sith Lord (Sort of the Emperor with a cape) and a pal of mine went as my apprentice (Just a T-shirt with a cape.). There were three Darth Vaders ( A little kid, a big guy, and a woman) , and me and my friend dueled a couple guys dressed as Jedi (Perfect costumes) in the isle before the movie with the audiance cheering on. These guys had obviously done it before. When I thrust my hand out, the guy immediatly fell down. One of the best theater experiences of my life. :up:

(We won the fight, BTW.)

[Orko Is King]

YES. I saw three Dark Vadar's, about two girls with the Princess Leia hairdo, and two Chewboccas:D Oh, and a clone soldier.

Who's Dark Vader? :confused:

And I saw a blue girl (who wasn't fat per se, but she could stand to lose a few pounds) with tentacles on her head, Anakin and Obi-Wan.

[JcDc]

Not in mine. TPM had a more SW feel to it and it had Liam Neeson and Darth Maul. AOTC had a whiney punk and a lonely, old man

I think Hayden is quite talented, has a good screen presence, and when I see him on screen I can definitely see him as Darth Vader as he has a natural darkness to him imo. Not something that can be taught, he just has it.

Example, look at a non star wars related pic

http://img.atpictures.com/hayden/christensen003.jpg

He has the right look for a man with a dark side.

[caretaker14]

1. The Empire Strikes Back
2. Return of the Jedi
3. A New Hope
4. Revenge of the Sith
5. The Phantom Menace
6. Attack of the Clones

[Kmack]

Yoda
Obi-Wan Kenobi
Darth Vadar/Anakin Skywalker
Han Solo
Queen Amidala
Luke Skywalker
Leia
Qui-Gon
General Grievous
Darth Maul

[[Faustinas]]

Vader is my number one, though Han Solo pretty much has him nearly tied. Even though I am a big fan of villains with superpowers and formidable weapons there's really nothing Han can't do with his blaster, the falcon, and his wits.

[Lord Nemesis]

Vader, Return of the Jedi Luke, Darth Maul, Boba Fett

[Dark Vigilante]

In order:

Darth Vader- Darkest, most interesting and tragic villian that I can think of.

Luke Skywalker- A great heroic character, but not flat like most boring hero characters. Has tinges of humor, and even the dark side in ROTJ

Obi-Wan Kenobi- A kick ass, wise ass, yet noble and honorable Jedi Knight. There is nothing to not like about him. I thought Ewan Mcgregor's Obi-Wan through-out the prequels was great and his acting was fantastic.

Yoda- Deeply insightful and wise. Yet he can also woop ass.

Emperor/Chancellor/Sideou- A truly manipulative, bone-chilingly evil character whose plot to overthrow the Republic and the Jedi was incredible. Great villian.


Others:
Han Solo
Leia
Chewbacca
Lando
Bobba Fett
Darth Maul
Count Dooku/Darth Tyranus

[souloffire]

Empire Strikes Back
A New Hope, or as I like to call it Star Wars.

ESB is still the best but not by that much IMO.

Empire Strikes Back
Return Of The Jedi
Revenge Of The Sith/ A New Hope
Attack Of The Clones
The Phantom Menace


I realy liked ROTS, esp. the second time around(which is weird to say cause its usally the opposite with the prequels.) it may beat Anew Hope just cause it has more meat to it, like Empire and ROTJ. It would even be close to beating ROTJ if not for the Throne room scene in Return.

[Brodie the fun]

I really don't see how every one of you could be so wrong:mad:

Dammit, i wish these threads would stop being merged.

[Arrowhead6789]

Leia in that little suit all the way.

I miss the old style of the Hildebrandt poster and the ones that followed. I always liked illustrated one sheets more than photoshopped montages.

I agree..theres nothing better then an illustrated poster, it makes the movie seem more...dignified if that makes sence.

The whole point was "old school". What were they thinking? lol
