on May 23 2007 08:24 AM saying this movie is for more than star wars nerds is like when Lucas claimed Clones would attract lots of women because it was romantic. yeah...suuuuure. i've seen the preview to this and it just looks very hack. funny if you're there...but not to watch...kind of thing.

on Feb 01 2008 08:22 PM In reply to this comment (#866446) hardware wars?! sweet! i thought i was the only one who ever saw that. I think i must have watched that about a dozen times as a kid. (Reply to this) |

on Feb 11 2009 02:48 AM I reckon it looks pretty good, especially as now its back to the original 'cancer plot'. Shame its only got a limited US release though (55 theaters is a pretty bad deal). Another pro-fanboy film is 'The People vs George Lucas' (www.peoplevsgeorge.com), where fanboys/girls get to side in favor or against Lucas. Thankfully, its not your bog-standard 'aren't geeks weird' take, so reckon that'll be worth a look too :-) (Reply to this) |
