I must say... this was a fun film. I enjoyed it quite a bit. Some of it was a little confusing on the first viewing... but not so bad where it couldn't be followed. Though I must say the character of Box and the scene with him did seem out of place in the movie. But that was not enough to ruin the film. If you never seen this one I definitely recommend checking it out.

Star Wars II: Attack of the Clones, a review by dfmorgan

Star Wars II: Attack of the Clones

A part of

Star Wars: The Complete Saga

Year: 2002
Director: George Lucas
Cast: Ewan McGregor, Natalie Portman, Hayden Christensen
Overview: The STAR WARS saga continues on DVD with Episode II ATTACK OF THE CLONES. Anakin Skywalker has grown into an accomplished Jedi apprentice, and he faces his most difficult challenge yet as he must chose between his Jedi duty and forbidden love. Relive the adventure the way it was meant to be seen in spectacular digital clarity, including the climactic Clone War battle and Jedi Master Yoda in the ultimate lightsaber duel.

Watched: 1st. Oct 2011
My Thoughts: As I said in my review of A Phantom Menace I haven't watched the prequels as much as the originals so cannot really state whether there are any modifications to this film. Whilst enjoyable it doesn't come up to the levels of enjoyment I get with the original trilogy. I have to say though that it was a good film in continuing the character and plot development to give the setting and basis for the original trilogy.

My Rating: It was a tad more enjoyable then SW1:APM but still less than the originals so a 4- -

Friends
1.01 The Pilot
Writer: Marta Kauffman (Writer), David Crane (Writer)

I never missed an episode when this series originally aired. At first I saw the first few seasons on German TV (pre-DVD and pre-broadband internet era made it hard to be able to see anything in the original language). Soon I discovered English transcripts of the latest episodes on the net and found out this way, that the German translation was horrible compared to the original.
The pilot does a good job introducing the characters. But it is hardly one of the better episodes.
