By Dunc Embrace the pain. Inspired by the latest in transparent rumor-mongering, Cracked puts their well-worn Wookieepedia bookmark to use to come up with five reasons the Star Wars sequels would be worse than the prequels. As an EU fan, I say… Well, yeah. It’s easy to be hard on the prequels, but we c...

By Charlie Jane Anders One thing jumps out at me: There were apparently no budget busting movies in 2000, 2001 or 2002. Apparently the first X-Men movie, which came out in 2000, had a budget of only about $75 million. And the Star Wars prequels, hideous though they were, were apparently on the cheap side, costing ar...

By Christopher Campbell By the time the Star Wars prequels arrived, George Lucas had already ruined our childhoods with his re-release of the original trilogy, each film updated with ill-fitting special effects, remastered soundtrack and some plot alterations in order that the trilogy could be “the way it wa...

By Christopher Campbell John at The Movie Blog agrees that prequels aren’t cool, but he’s more optimistic now that Scott’s at the helm: ones were let downs. With prequels, you already know certain things will happen… and certain things won’t happen… which takes a lot out of a story for me…

By noreply@blogger.com (Adam Whitehead) But then things started changing. It's difficult to pinpoint where it started. For many, it was when George Lucas started using elements from the comics and novels whilst writing the Star Wars prequels. 'Coruscant', the Republic/Imperial capital, was first named by Timothy Zahn in the 19...

It's ironic that years of expectation left many fans disappointed by the “Star Wars” prequels and the same thing is likely to happen to the long-delayed “Fanboys”. The film may only be slightly disappointing, but the DVD is borderline offensive. ...

By Jason Chen Bonus: there's a four-issue Star Trek: Countdown comic series that prequels the movie. Though, you might want to wait until after you watch to read, since it gives away a few plot points. To tell you more would be to spoil too much. It's too much even to tell you what KIND of fans would like the com...

Once a legendary trilogy of movies, the Star Wars universe has been increasingly expanded in recent years by creator George Lucas with varied results. His prequels failed to live up to their predecessors while The Clone Wars period of his tale was ...

By wendell Notes: "300" is the only movie on both the 'Spoiled by History' and 'Saved by Historical Inaccuracy' lists. But it was the inclusion of the Star Wars Prequels on Premiere's 'History' list that motivated me to make this post. What The Frak?!?

By Scott Thill Wired.com: Does Lucas get pissed that Vader is so rudely pwned by Palpatine on Robot Chicken? Wired.com: Any plans for a Robot Chicken Star Wars Episode III? Senreich: Seth joked with Lucas after the first special that we want to do two sequels and three prequels. Let's hope Lucas feels the sa...

By Kevin Kelly We’ve previously mentioned this Lucasarts game set in the period between Revenge of the Sith and A New Hope (or the last prequel, and the original Star Wars movie for those of you less fluent with Star Wars geekery), but it holds up on its own as far superior all three of Lucas’ prequels. Darth...

By tvgal@seattlepi.com (Melanie McFarland) Robot Chicken: Star Wars" treats the original trilogy with more kindness than the prequels, and Green and Senreich couldn't resist the urge to make Luke Skywalker take one to the family jewels. The show is what it is. But that moment, along with the rest, is all in good fun.

By Sompeetalay In this entry I'll review 'Star Wars Chronicles: the Prequels'. I'll add more to my review as I continue to read this book.

From Sci-Fi Talk's Radio Days, a broadcast featuring Steve Sansweet of Lucas Film, and Ray Cannella of the Sci-Fi Channel, who joined my co-host, Ernest Lilley and I to talk about the special edition of the Empire Strikes Back. It became a special event as we looked ahead to the prequels and...
