I saw the theatrical release of 'The Phantom Menace' on my eighth birthday, but I just can't compare to those who got to see the original releases of the original (i.e. proper) trilogy.
I want this piece of music played at my memorial service, for I am not to be buried but cremated. I have instructed all of my family and friends when it comes time for me to leave this journey of my life to not mourn my passing. I have instructed them to celebrate, because I did not die, but have become one with The Force.
My dear Star Wars lovers, The Force is real. It is called the "Source Field." It is non-electromagnetic, and therefore metaphysical in nature. Such is the source of all time, space, matter, energy, life, and consciousness. Without even thinking, our being is in constant communication with this Source Field; and when we /do/ think, we use The Force to create our very lives. =]
Yoda explains to us what the Force is and it makes sense. Qui gon Jin throws all that out the window with microscopic life forms . Basically a big fuck you from Lucas. The Force was supposed to be a mystery IMHO. "Life creates it, makes it grow. Its energy surrounds us and binds us. Luminous beings are we, not this crude matter. You must feel the Force around you; here, between you, me, the tree, the rock, everywhere, yes. Even between the land and the ship.” ~ Yoda.
@Ninjamonk343 I think that the Midichlorians are simply the biological aspect of The Force. The Force yields Midichlorians, not the other way around. It's a reflection of that fact that everything is made up of conscious energy. =]
@Ninjamonk343 Nothing more needs to be said. You said it all. I totally disregard midichlorians from the entire saga because it's like explaining to a group of children how a magic trick is done.
@MarioMan173 I still will not accept that Yoda ever had a lightsaber. He's better than that. When your ally is the force, you don't need to turn into Speedy Gonzales.
To any of you kids under the age of 20 whose least favorite movie in the series is The Empire Strikes Back because it was "the most boringist one," I suggest you shut this review off right now, before I carefully explain what a fucking idiot you are.
Don't worry, I'm not saying that seriously. I'm quoting the RedLetterMedia review of The Phantom Menace. If you haven't seen it, you MUST, it's hilarious.
"Size matters not. Look at me. Judge me by my size do you? And well you should not, for my ally is the Force, and a powerful ally it is. Life creates it, makes it grow. Its energy surrounds us and binds us. Luminous beings are we, not this crude matter. You must feel the Force around you. Here, between you, me, the tree, the rock, everywhere! Yes, even between the land and the ship."
Exactly. Lucas ruined the Star Wars saga by including all the midichlorian b.s. Just like you don't tell a child how a magic trick is done because it takes all the fun out of it, you don't have to explain the force with science. Why couldn't he just let us believe?
@zosovette That's like arbitrarily creating a reason explaining the physics behind why Superman can fly. It doesn't matter. It's also like explaining a sunset in scientific terms. Yeah, it may be the angle of the earth and the refraction of light off dust particles in the atmosphere as well as certain wavelengths but it's completely unnecessary and frankly, unwanted. Midichlorians are one of many bad ideas from George Lucas that have ruined the Star Wars franchise.
The prequels ruined the Force with it's midichlorian bullshit,l reducing the Force from a mystical, beautiful power understood by very few to a silly biological infection. completly unnecessary as a person's strength in the Force can be measured by their actions.
i must say, this is the only symphony orchestrated music i enjoy listening to. you can keep your Beethoven just give me John Williams and the Star Wars and Indiana Jones soundtracks
@DestinyOfTheForce I used an argument. U just said nothing but only "Wow you´re stupid". You started to be bad mannered. Not me. Have more respect first.
@DestinyOfTheForce Doesnt matter what I said. I only discover that u never wanted to trade arguments about the subject. U just insulted me and my argument. And You have not been democratic. So u made me lost my time.
I believe you meant to say that I made you "lose" your time. Judging from your poor grammar, it's safe to assume that a rational argument on your behalf isn't to be expected. Good luck in future debates. You may have lost today, but there's always hope.
@DestinyOfTheForce Im not american. Lost/lose... whatever. U dont have any argument at all. I say the same to u in ur next dabates. But maybe u stop to judge the interlocutor and hope you do something better than offend.
Something about this poster always stood out to me as my fave Empire poster, along with the other line of posters that were released around the same time for the other 2 films. But the music (back on topic), always reminds me of the wise teaching abilities obtained by Yoda. Those people out there who see Yoda as a character are wrong. He is as well a role model for those teachers out there.
Yoda: Size matters not. Look at me. Judge me by my size, do you? Hmm? Hmm. And well you should not. For my ally is the Force, and a powerful ally it is. Life creates it, makes it grow. Its energy surrounds us and binds us. Luminous beings are we, not this crude matter. You must feel the Force around you; here, between you, me, the tree, the rock, everywhere, yes. Even between the land and the ship.
@FanStoryVideoStudios Yeah man, I think we've all been in Luke's shoes sometime in our lives.....and then that one guiding figure shows us the error of our immature ways, IMHO anyway.
totally man, my old teacher lied about my fathers death and my then worst enemy who had a terrible case of asthma told me he was my father, cut down my right hand and then i had to battle him and cut his hand in exchange only to be electorcuted and then watch my father toss some really bad skinned pale guy in some shaft..totally :D
jk though, i understnad what you meant, i just thought this would be funny
@Vemutin Lol, I meant that by being in Luke shoes, I meant there was a time where we were young and driven but we would make mistakes here and there because we just didn't know how to handle ourselves.
@DoctorPorkenfries oh yee of little faith, have you learned nothing? the prequels are like an immature child growing up, with the classic trilogy being like an adult who has come full circle. although it is rather odd Lucas managed to portray this evolution in REVERSE, but i digress, lol =)
@chran1138 Get over it. There's nothing more immature than throwing tantrums and being unable to accept that these films are part of the saga. The prequels are as much part of Star Wars as the original films, whether you like them or hate them. Seriously, you're not being funny with silly jokes like that.
