>>>>>>>>>>>>I've seen the movie when I was young. I also read he book and it had a completely different plot. It was a toss-up which was dumber.

>>>>>>>>>I've said it before and I'll say it again: Why, with SO MANY good stories around, do they KEEP remaking old movies, just cos the old'n was successful? ("The Four Feathers" has been a major film 7 times so I once read). That ridiculous yarn "King Kong" has been a major release 3 times!
>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>How true. I have read many excellent books I would love to see on the big screen. But between the remakes and bring old television shows to the big screen I have nearly stop going to the movies. The last good movie I can recall seeing is the Matrix (the first one, the others sucked.)
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>Aye, but folk kept buying me the Matrix sequels for my birthday!

>>>>>>Great. At least that solves your christmas gift problem. Give them back to the givers.

>>>>Actaully, here, the siquals (part 2 and 3) are on alot. They rarely show the original movie of any series of movies. It is like watching part 2 of a "to be contiued" episode of a TV program. By the way, what irritated me to most of the second Matrix movie was not the movie but the at the end they throw up (all punt intended) the "To Be Continued" statement. I did not pay good money to see a half a movie.

>>>It sure worked for the Star Wars series.

>>What WAS all that about? I don't think it DID work so well. For instance, in the later films I could never really "warm" to the Anekin character, as I knew he was only going to become the evil Darth Vader, and the guy from the "council" - I knew he was going to be the emperor, so there was no surprise (you could see he looked like the emperor anyway, in a way without the make-up he'd grown old into the part - if it was the same actor).

>>Also it was confusing to have earlier films, with Yoda hobbling around with a crutch, then later springing about like a spaniel.

>I didn't mean artistically, I meant commercially. Even the crappy "prequels" made a mint at the box office and in ancillary income.

>PS -- Would that a springer spaniel Yoda make?

In later years from hip displasure he suffered.
