You’re not missing much. Good cnquers evil, hero gets the girl.
For me, the magic has faded. Damn you Lucas. Damn you.
Yeah, but the big question is, <i>which</i> hero gets the girl?

Yeah, well, that points comes after two more great films.
Just, the entire Ep 1 and 2 experience ruined it for me. He replaced the charactes with whiney tenns (Anakin, Amidala, I am looking at you) and special effects.
Yoda will always be cool though.
Go watch the films, preferably the digitally-remastered versions. They’re probably still the best example of the sci-fi romance, good conquers evil genre you can find, like LotR. They’re very similar.
I’m sorry. You’ve probably heard all this before a thousand times.:thud:
LotR and Star Wars are nothing similar in the fact that Star Wars aren’t shitty movies. I wouldn’t really classifiy either of them as “sci fi romance”. The only movies that have any remote romantic value are episode 2 and episode 6. And as far as I know, the Aragorn/Galadriel (or whatever, I hate the damn series) is relativly minor in comparison to other events.
I compared Sw to LotR in the sense that both are epic series spanning multiple films. And yeah, now i think about it the romance didn’t really feature heavily, unless you count Han Solo hitting on Leia.
You really didn’t like the Rings films? I thought they were pretty cool. They did a much better job than the books did.

ah! the films are pretty goddam good but the books! They are like a renowned piece of literature! (excuse my spelling if any of it is bad)
Maybe to most, but I just didn’t enjoy them as much as the films. Too much singing.:boring:
Or you could just buy a neon tube from a sign store, stick a handle on it and end up paying, at the most, 140…
But that would involve hard work. These guys make 'em for you, and ship them in a nice padded case. It’s the lazy Jedi’s method of choice.
This has been done for at least a decade and a half now from what I know. I’ll just stick to my semi-transparent acrilicum green-blade homemade lightsaber.
One of my classmates got a huge pieec of dowel once, shaped the end and painted the rest blue. Bravo, one wooden solid lightsaber, used for assult. It hurt, the bastard.
