George Lucas said he always intended for people to watch the films in order(Phantom Menance ----> Return of the Jedi), but I that's just retarded. It totally destroys the greatest scene in the history of film, in the Empire Strikes Back.

And I liked Parasite Eve, but I had high school biology and the premise made me twitch. Sci-Fi is like this: If you're going to bullshit, do it big and grand. Be like the original Star Wars trilogy. OR don't bullshit. Derive everything from real science (a la Star Trek, save for subspace/warp drive). Don't mix the two. You end up with midichlorians or biology that just makes your ass twitch enough that it sticks out (Parasite Eve). The gameplay, however, and overall story, was excellent.

When Sideous is talking to Ani he mentions only one man has cheated death. We know Plagus wasn't the one...is there a throwback to Tales of the Jedi? Exar Kun became a ghostie...is that what he's talking about? Or did he know about Qui-Gon?
Who is Qui-Gon?

I'm not sure I can agree with the "absolutely nothing" answer.
Leia, on THAT ship (used in Epp 3), puts the Death Star information and a request for help from Obi-Wan into THAT R2 unit, which has THAT 3PO unit tag along. They then land in the lap of Luke, of all people. And then Obi-Wan just happens to find them when they're in trouble?
I'm sorry, but that's just too much to happen all by itself. Someone was pulling strings, and the best answer for "who?" is Qui-Gon. Obi-Wan must have had a hard time keeping a straight face during all that. And I'm sure that Yoda (during Epp 5) found a reason to send Luke off after something and had a talk with R2 about the old days.

The writing for Padme and Palpatine was embarassingly bad. But it was a good movie up until Mace Windu died; those early scenes with Anakin 'falling' to the Dark Side were just pathetic. Ian McDiarmid is much better than that.
The 'Order 66' bit proved, for me at least, that it was Palpatine masquerading as Sifa Dias who ordered the creation of the clones. Not Qui-Gonn or Yoda or anyone else.

the way I see the fact Luke never sees the Qui Gon ghost is that he had no emotional attachment to him, he saw Obi-wan (first teacher), Yoda (second teacher) and old Anakin (father)

Right, right, I get that.
But after Anakin turns, after Mace dies, Palpi says, "Only one other has cheated death"
...So who was it? Is he talking about Qui-Gon? Or Exar Kun?

Qui-Gon. Everyone who appears (or is alluded to appearing) as a ghost has 'cheated death'. Yoda says Qui-Gon learned how to, and subsequently how to communicate back and forth, and he will be teaching Obi-Wan during his exile on Tatooine.
He said Jedi, anyways. Exar Kun was Sith for one, and I wouldn't count on Lucas bringing up that can of worms for two. Sean fucked around with this message on 05-22-2005 at 06:25 PM.

First off, Palpatine was talking about a Sith, naming him Darth Plagus. At that time during the movie Qui-Gon was not known to have done this.
Second of all, Exar Kun was a very powerful Jedi before he fell and became Sith. Also, in the future of the series, Palpatine also cheats death by using the force to transfer his conscience into one of several clones that he had waiting in the outer rim. More than likely, he just made up a Sith for the movie that will somehow find his place in the history of Star Wars.
Still one other possibilty is that Darth Plagus was Palpatine's master. At least, that's what it says on every board I've checked so far. UBT fucked around with this message on 05-22-2005 at 08:01 PM.

Parasite Eve is actually the sequel to a movie released in Japan under the same name.
The movie had a much more sound scientific basis, but it was incredibly boring and a little weird.

He was talking about the Sith power to save and preserve life, which indeed was Plagus's, his mentor. He also specifically mentions that of all the lives Plagus could save, he couldn't save his own. Because Palpatine sabered his ass in his sleep.

Trust me, I know. I know all about Exar Kun. Lucas just wouldn't include him, there's no reason to. If you hadn't noticed, Lucas was making these three prequels as straightforward and bland as possible; No mysteries, nothing officially unexplained EXCEPT THE FUCKING DARK SIDE-HEAVY CAVE ON DAGOBAH, LUCAS, YOU FUCKING HACK. Er, sorry. But no, there's no reason to believe Lucas was making reference to an EU-created character when he later goes on, at length, talking about Qui-Gon's appearance as the first Jedi ghost.

Actually, there used to be an explanation about it on the official Star Wars web site, last I checked. Very comprehensive explanations of all the little quirky aspects of the universe.

Drysart Model 2000 was programmed to say:
One scene that did invoke emotion from me for some reason was the scene where Anakin enters the room full of Jedi kids. When they ask him for help and he doesn't respond, just takes out his lightsaber. That sort of gave me chills.
I thought Grevious (sp?) was pretty badass looking. Too bad he went down so easily.
It would seem to me that Darth Plagus was Sidious's Master. It would cover the fact that we never find out where Sidious learned the force and would explain why he is so incredibly powerful.
Here is where I get confused.
Anakin was conceived by the Midiclorians. Was his mom Sidious's slave before she was sold to Watoo? Did Sidious then sell her to a Tatooine Resident to get her out of the reach of the Jedi Council so that the child wouldn't be picked up and trained by the Jedi after birth? It would explain easily why sidious is so keen on Anakin and shows so much fatherly concern for him at the end of Episode III. Seems a little out of place for a Sith Lord.
Was Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan's landing on Tatooine during the events of Episode I a part of Sidious's plan? He could have picked any planet in the Republic to start the invasion as an excuse to grab power. Did he pick Naboo because it was close to Tatooine so the Jedi would pick it as the planet on which to hide the Queen? Was he aware of the Jedi prophesy and using it to get his hand-created pupil free training at a location where he would have easy access to slowly poison Anakin's training with pride?
Did he order the attack on Padme to drive Anakin and Padme together, or was it just an unintended side-effect of attempting to silence the pacifists in the senate to ease the development of war to secure his dictatorship?
So much left unexplained.

I found most of the movie to be pretty bad. Even the good actors couldn't make much of the terrible script.

First off, learn to spell his name correctly, it's Hayden Christensen. The name is Danish, it also happens to be my last name so it's kinda pisses me off that with his name in the last 2 Star Wars movies and everyone bitching about him you could at least get that right.
Second off, his acting wasn't that bad in this movie, I felt he did a good job with what he was given.
Also, I wouldn't say that General Grevious went down all that easy. He did give Obi-Wan a good fight until his untimely demise. UBT fucked around with this message on 05-23-2005 at 12:30 PM.

holy fuck he got a vowel wrong stop the goddamn presses
I think I'll spell it wrong on purpose from now on, until he improves his acting to the point of being worthy of any respect. I don't know who Christiansen fucked to get the role of the Star Wars saga's most important character.
