hey just wondering which of these classic films do you prefer?!?!

While Lord of the Rings probably can't be considered "classic", being only a few years old (the film, though the book are old). Star wars is alright, good for battles and stuff, but to me has always seemed a romp in special effects and nothing really exceptional about it except that.

lol yea- thats what i ment..
yea starwars is cool but it aint as "evil" as lord of the rings which i like lol.

I think LOTR is just grander than StarWars in general. Plus it's one of the few good book to film conversions.

the starwars films were made a long time ago so the spec effects ect were a lil bit better

Star wars was the pinnacle of special effects when made. however, that was one of it's major selling points...

the original star wars is one of the best films ever made!!!

also, the newest star wars (tho supposed amazing in special effects) r crap! original ones 4tw...harrison ford, mark hamill, such legends.

+ LOTR = 2 long, omfg i nearly fell asleep, i agree thy r gd bt 3 hours is a waste of time on any movie lol

good points but i find starwars get a bit samey and boring at tims lol.
LOR u say is too long but thats the joy of it!

if u enjoy a snooze! thn LOTR is ur film!!!!

im not saying the star wars saga is gd, merely the original one!!! tht film pwns!

the first 4 they made were the best, the latest ones were a bit over the top though.

i can prove it...in the latest star wars films (i.e. 1-3) not the originals.

IS DARTH VADER A TROUBLED TEENAGER OR AN EVIL VILLAIN?

hes simply a troubled teenager, its pathetic compared to the original, tho its funny hearing the "noooooooooooooooooo" tht he does

lool lord of the rings still better though no stoppin that.

debateable

The thing about LOTR being too long is that if they made it shorter, they would miss loads out. They could have quite easily made it into 5 or 6 films.

which would have made them EVEN more money, making it into say 6 films, as the same amount of ppl wld effectively be paying twice to see the same movie

Well yeah, they probs couldn't be bothered to think of titles, as there are only 3 books. They definitely couldn't make them shorter, though, otherwise way too much would be missed.

well yeh, bt they already missed out loads, like in the 3rd one whr thy all go bk to the shrine, tht never happened in the film...i dnt think so anyway maybe i was asleep!

I never actually read the books, really should. My sister and dad have though, they said they missed a fair bit, like the gifts from the forest elves. I think if they removed much more it wouldn't make sense.

good point, they could have made them into seperate films, however i think people would have got bored.

Erm, well I have seen starwars, but I fell asleep watching it, so I haven't really seen it, as for Lord of the Rings, I have tried watching get half way through and give up, lol. Typical me!

Yeah, what I'm saying is they got the right length TBH. The extended editions were just annoying, though, requiring a DVD change half way through.

And LOL xP

What

We all know I have the attention span of a Fish

My point was actually to Pank!

Anyway, if they made them shorter they'd miss waaaay too much.

dont give up lol!!!!!! theyre all great films!

I'm actually considering going and getting the DVDs from downstairs to watch them now.
