Then the lights went out,

and they all shouted.

During the progress, people booed.

Lucasfilm logo appeared,

and all cheer again.

They make your hair stand on end

when you see...

"Long ago,

in a galaxy far, far away... "

When you see him on screen.

THE STAR WARS:

Opening appears,

and people are crazy...

That's incredible.

Who thought this day would come?

And it was one of the greatest moments...

Life... a spectator.

Then begins the film.

I knew that. The language

of the opening sequence was wrong.

Not appreciated as correct.

But I said, "Okay. I'll keep looking."

It started as a glow

in the heart...

Down... and then...

... Down here.

I remember thinking:

"By God, Is it really...?

Is that bad? "

I was very disappointed.

I said "What? Is it bad?"

I began to get discouraged...

But... continued:

"It Wars . Will improve.

The Jedi is not great, does not matter.

It will be good. "

Was used to seeing

people who saw the original...

Screaming... excited,

clapping, laughing.

This was indeed

a silent projection.

Perhaps it was something different.

You may not notice it.

Perhaps we should see her again.

It was the first time in my life...

A movie...

really disappointed me...

I was sad... and...

... To the point of having to lie about

what was to maintain the honor.

I remember interviewing

in local news...

... Where they said:

"Yes, but tomorrow we go again."

There was still hope.

People are not convinced...

... Until I saw her...

... Because everyone saw it twice.

We all saw it again.

I waited four days in the rain...

... peeing in my hands and drinking it

to buy tickets...

... to see The Phantom Menace

third time

Yes

They are like the victims who return

the scene...

Andrew Weekes

Filmmaker

To assume it... somehow.

I went one and again.

But not having fun...

... But rather to convince

that amused me.

Saw The Phantom Menace

at the movies 13 times.

RIDDLE SONGE:

Orbital Comics, London (UK)

In part, I did it because they can not see a

Star Wars for 17 years.

In part it was to accept what it was.

The second time I saw...

I realized...

that I was enjoying it more.

What a disappointment!

# All began

in line to see Episode I #

# My girlfriend had picked the hair #

# But it turned out that the film

not what I expected #

Tell me what you want.

Wars did not care

people who both wanted.

Is this the best you can do?

Eighteen years old.

We can not separate

how to see things now...

How we saw them... then...

... And how we see them on the basis

of how we saw then.

When he left The Phantom Menace ,

I noticed a change in the followers...

... That went from fans

George Lucas...

... To take it so personally...

They thought...

George Lucas wrote...

- ... The film to annoy them.

- Yes

Who likes the prequels?

Shut up! You are wrong.

We all knew

Emperor Palpatine would.

We all knew

Anakin Skywalker would be Darth Vader.

OWEN ZIEGLER:

YouTube Partner Training

But I never expected it to be so.

In my world

Wars ...

... Do not exist the numbers I, II and III.

George Lucas spoke

to make prequel...

... But they were always scripts...

Before he died...

in a car accident in 1989.

Just after making

Last Crusade .

Brandon, wanting something very badly

does not make it true.

People made see

as the worst movie ever.

I do not care.

Yet I saw 13 or 14 times.

TO THE CAMERA SHY

French fan

There was a place of gratitude

the new trilogy, it was fun.

is a group of people who say:

"To us yes we liked

the new movie. "

"We want to be like. Really."

I think that is licensed

to do what you want...

JONATHAN HOFFMAN

Disappointed fan

But disappointed...

a generation of fans.

So I see it as one of them.

followers know

exactly what they want.

want more of the latter who read

and they loved it.

That fans want.

If you liked what you did...

Like... want another, please.

I do not think responsibility...

TONY MILLIONAIRE

Maakies cartoonist

... To the public at all.

I think you should do what you want.

You do things you like.

For me, if a cartoon

does not make me laugh...

... or if I do not like, do not print.

But I will not take anyone's advice.

His responsibility to the fans

is to take your money.

I have very bad news

for us, the fans.

We are old and paunchy.

Not be like Star Wars

summer of 1977.

But I tried to tell me:

"Let me remember...

... It's a big dumb movie

about wizards of space.

That is what is supposed to be.

So while you have magicians

space, I will be happy. "

But it turned

more difficult than I thought...

Jar Jar... because.

He is the key to all this...

... If perfected.

Because it's funny

any character...

... From the previous films.

Your Honor,

I created my own lawyer...

Thanks to the magic...

of digitization.

Look how well it integrates

in this court.

Amazing.

I call McPoopoo Puddles.

It was a beautiful balloon

Globe Wars ...

... And we all love the balloons...

... And then brings Jar Jar Binks...

... Which is a large needle

and burst that bubble.

GEORGE R. BINKS

WHALING:

What kind of name is that

space for a lover?

You're a damn fool.

You are an evil bastard.

WESLEY WILLIS:

Artist and musician

You say many idiocies.

You can say goodbye to me.

Jar Jar Binks # #

Jar Jar Binks # #

Jar Jar Binks # #

Jar Jar Binks # #

Discrrame.

# You're a fool fool #

- Not like you.

- No matter, no one wants.

You're an idiot evil # #

# You are a poor moron #

What do you feel, Jar Jar?

Jar Jar Binks # #

You want to fight now?

Jar Jar Binks # #

In A New Hope ,

is a very natural flow...

Of humor... all the characters,

more or less.

And here are all a bunch of fools.

And the person

it is supposed to be funny...

Is the least funny... ever.

NOT Gungans

is a cartoon character

invading this world...

I... took me seriously

until that moment.

I was disappointed when he started talking.

I thought it was that kind of movie.

We had brought a level

and then said:

"Will a mood

vulgar child...

And some strange animals...

farts will be thrown in our face...

... And say, 'yoosa Pee'...

And you will laugh...

because you like Beavis and Butt-Head ".

Jar Jar Binks is what someone

no sense of humor...

... considered funny.

Talks and walks strange.

It has speech problems.

It's funny, right?

Some said it was

a racist stereotype...

A comedy...

of the thirties...

out... where Stepin Fetchit

Mantan Moreland or...

... Saying, "Feet, run!"

It was hip-hop version of C-3PO.

The difficulty is

if Jar Jar Binks is racist...

Humor... because it looks black face...

... But no one saw this kind of humor...

If 12 years...

and see prequel saga...

Racist character... whose racism

is so encoded in the story...

Racist... still?

Jar Jar worst of it exists.

MATT COHEN:

Writer / broadcaster podcasts

We can not help it.

If you're a fan...

... In your heart you know that Jar Jar

not only in the movies...
