I.e. I was agreeing with you, but maybe that didn't come through. I should probably go to sleep. I've been awake for 25 hours now.

No need to reply, I was just commenting on the author's assumption that we didn't like the dialogue because we wanted it to be more "Whedonesque". ;)

In other news, Joss Whedon isn't that great. The last thing I want is all my Star Wars characters sounding like interchangeable quip machines.

Yeah, somehow my mind didn't register the fact that this article wasn't posted just this minute and obviously there were already dozens of "that guy"s saying the same thing, but it's 2 p.m. here and I haven't slept since yesterday, cut me some slack.

Yeah, that moment is badass, and probably the reason why I prefer Episode I over II.

Yes. THE ONE WE'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR.

Attack of the Clones was seriously the worst. I'd honestly rather watch the Phantom Menace, even with Jar Jar.

Of course it's okay to memorize lines you like, it's not even something you do consciously (even though I have a lousy memory and it almost never happens to…

Yeah, that hip bone could take somebody's eye out.

I get the impression that people who rembember several lines verbatim from theses books really need to start reading other books maybe?

People are already complaining that the show is boring and nothing happens. Imagine the number of viewers they would lose If they adapted those two books as faithfully as they did the others.

Also,

"It was his story against mine, but of course I told my story better."

I remember almost nothing of this movie, but I remember the MAD Magazine spoof, where they made sure to mention the rape-played-as-comedy bit.

Upvoted for thinking as I did.
