You've got the Ewoks (enough said) and a re-hash of the plot from A New Hope. Talk about George milking the franchise; he gave us the same plot with Teddy Ruxpin.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-292188936537697563.post-51808373227516043312009-03-23T22:14:00.000-05:002009-03-23T22:14:00.000-05:00As the parent of a 3 and 5 year old that love ever...As the parent of a 3 and 5 year old that love everything Star Wars I highly recommend bringing your son into the fold. You would not believe the life lessons you work out of those movies when you really try. Plus, you can play with the toys again.Captain Dumbasshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02214826608461609241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-292188936537697563.post-43047965138520144192009-03-23T20:40:00.000-05:002009-03-23T20:40:00.000-05:00L-O-V-E Star Wars.

Our problems are, these are the Star Wars movies for this generation. Nowhere near as good as the older ones, but unless their parents indoctrinated them early(which I did) these are going to be the films that they remember. So in order to talk about them with his friends, he has to talk about the newer ones. <BR/><BR/>There was an awesome Millenium Falcon out around Christmastime. It sold for 150.00 but after Christmas I found it numerous times on clearance. I haven't seen them at all lately though...Jasonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05107035581921810659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-292188936537697563.post-85704596819408300132009-03-23T13:45:00.000-05:002009-03-23T13:45:00.000-05:00I agree with the order of him watching the movies....I agree with the order of him watching the movies. I feel the first 2 prequels did not do the ones I watched as a kid justice.<BR/><BR/>The last one was good but I don't find myself watching it as often as I do Star Wars, Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi.Bee (the one who muses)https://www.blogger.com/profile/12766223798452118916noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-292188936537697563.post-64187658287628987952009-03-23T10:00:00.000-05:002009-03-23T10:00:00.000-05:00The Mr.& Boy Weasel love geeking out to Star W...The Mr.& Boy Weasel love geeking out to Star Wars together.

Our youngest seems to know a lot about the movies. Not sure what order he saw them in, but I guess you are correct that seeing Jar Jar may just put a bad taste in their mouth.Cajohhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17705931109877069830noreply@blogger.com
