Star Wars Marathon

So i've been off work for a week and have trying to decide what to do, mostly it has involved sleeping,

Then i thought ok i'm going to watch all of Season 1 of Thundercats in one sitting (60 episodes 23 hours)

Got to episode 5 and it hurt my head how bad it has aged,

So i then decided i haven't watched the Star Wars movies in a while and never attempted the 6 in one sitting

I've just finished Phantom Menace and while the last third of it drags it does for the most entertain.

I'm now onto Ep II attack of the clones,

As i said it's been a while since i watched these but im watchign the new trilogy as a 3 story arc rather than 3 seperate movies and in this sense it seems to hold up better, I also have the clone wars movie lying about somewhere so i'm thinking should i add that into the mix or just keep the live action movies.

Anything else i'd say would just be bringing up issues people have with these movies, non sensical plot holes, wooden acting, love story that feels it was written by a 10 year old.

But on the other hand, Family Guy and Robot Chickens Star Wars specials have ruined parts of the movies for me but also somehow at the same time after pointing out the silliness of the movies made them more special and enjoyable.

Anywho after also seeing the thread earlier about Star Wars and its ingrained in pop culture, what are you guys fave bits of the movies or parodys/homages to the series,

ATATs.

They just epitomise the Empire's power for me.

I first saw them in 1980 or so and since then hey have captured my imagination, I just love em.

Aside, the worse the movie the better the review. It's notable how his SW reviews get less and less entertaining with each subsequent prequel. By ep3 he's resorting to nitpicking.
