Yes. But if we are going by good actors vs bad actors, Neeson beats all (except Alec Guinness) in the first film hands down. I agree that the lines are atrocious. The real quality of McGregor and Neeson (and Guinness in the older) is that they actually manage to say them as if they were things one could say.


but I think the lines they are saying in the original films are far more natural for the characters, rather than good actors doing their best with bad lines. Lucas just can't write realistic interactions.

I take it you are among those wise people who deny the existence of the second trilogy? Legolas - 08/08/2010 11:40:16 AM 812 Views

The voice can be explained logically, but it still sucks balls. (and not in the good way) TaskmasterJack - 08/08/2010 02:50:34 PM 838 Views

Plus the three films we don't talk about and shouldn't exist. *NM* snoopcester - 10/08/2010 12:33:40 PM 317 Views
Episode III was as good as any of the originals. Ghavrel - 10/08/2010 06:37:28 PM 711 Views
It most certainly was not! Rebekah - 10/08/2010 06:39:30 PM 623 Views
Yep, close to it, at least. ironclad - 10/08/2010 09:46:22 PM 726 Views

Agreed *NM* Sidious - 11/08/2010 05:27:49 AM 368 Views
I don't know about that. Fisher, Ford and Hamill could act. Legolas - 11/08/2010 03:00:26 PM 762 Views

Good point, that's perhaps an even more important difference... Legolas - 11/08/2010 04:29:34 PM 756 Views
Yes. Lucas should never write anything Camilla - 11/08/2010 04:33:05 PM 647 Views
he shouldn't direct either!!! *NM* imlad - 12/08/2010 12:39:56 AM 371 Views

That's not quite the issue. TaskmasterJack - 12/08/2010 01:37:58 AM 745 Views
Hayden Christensen is. Legolas - 12/08/2010 06:01:15 PM 836 Views
