New Shots From France of ATTACK OF THE CLONES!
Hey folks Harry here with a bit of a look at ATTACK OF THE CLONES!!! Now aren't ya warming to that title like ya do to German Chocolate Cake fresh out of the oven with a double scoop of homemade Vanilla ice cream with nuts and Hershey's syrup dumped all over it? God I loathe diets... WRONG WRONG WRONG... You love the diet Harry... The diet is your friend. The diet will enable you to be the next Wilt Chamberlain of the bedroom! That's it baby, here I come... Oh... Here's those pics... BTW, ya wanna hate someone? That evil bastard Harry Lime broke into Skywalker Ranch and talked to Lucas himself... He's writing a 40,000 word piece about the experience complete with 10,000 uses of the phrase "OH MY GOD"... Should be exciting reading!
Hi,
Here are four shots from "Star Wars Episode 2", published in the summer issue of the French magazine "LucasFilm Magazine".

I think I've got it. Don't say the title all in one breath. Put strongest emphasis on "Attack", pause, then back off on "of the", then come back strong for "Clones". Something like: ATTACK...of the CLONES! Or maybe I'm just up too late...
-
This time around, drop the stupid "Amidala" accent...it grated. Padme's voice was much better. Also, don't let them put you in those bulky "Amidala" costumes with the outrageous headpieces. Finally, drop the red spot on the lip...it looked like you had herpes.
-
Attack of the Clones... Maybe Lucas was drunk... Yeah that could be it... I mean it explained the whole Ben Affleck/ Bounce thing right?
-
...what's going to be on those blue-screens in the background? I'm still impressed with Mr. McGreggor's resemblance to Alec Guinness. As far as the movie goes, I hope that Mr. Lucas has begun to re-read his Joseph Campbell and put away the Dr.Suess, it's time he brought this one up to the adult level. Just some early morning ramblings.
Cheers,

...is by far the movie I am expecting more in 2002. I am loving every single little tidbit about this (yes, even the title).
Attack of the Clones, just as bad as the Empire Strikes Back, so by my somewhat illogical rationale, we should expect a great movie. I still think the best title in the series would be THE PHANTOM MENACE, and if viewed objectively, as a whole, Episode I is number 2 in quality (behind empire) in my opinion. Go Attack of the Clones! Hey, even Ewan McGregor likes it, in spite of earlier reports! This peppy moment was made possible by the eternal souls of the children of the himalaya. -
Sadly, no matter how hard one tries to salvage this title, at this point all they are doing is polishing a turd. *sigh*

This time around he has a patch on his eye, so you know he means buisness.
I do have to second the motion that The Empire Strikes Back is a pretty cheesy tittle too. And it is the best one, so I still have hope for Epiosode II. -

DeLarge - I`m watching you!
-
I know I probably am. I don't give a shit about the title. I just remember George Lucas helping my imagination grow as a child with the Trilogy. The guy isn't real good at titles, but as far as the Star Wars saga goes, the guy is smart. Nothing can even compare to it. The vastness and details, the different aliens, planets, names, all in George's head. But....if Jar Jar is back as a stupid fuckface, I'm probably gonna rent it on video. I blame Episode 1 solely on him.
When is Episode 2 coming out anyway? -
All I can say is thank Peter Jackson for the Lord of the Rings!!!!!
-
I've tried looking at the title in every way I can think off ("It harkens back to the old space serials on T.V.") - crap. The title is just plain lame. The shots were okay, I think Ewan looks excellent as Obi-Wan with that beard, Natalie Portman = hot, but that space pirate guy looks like a dumb-ass.
-
These pics have been posted by other sites before, but the one that gets me is the Anakin/Padme one. Both of them look like they are ready to jump on top of each other and put Andrew Blake to shame.
-
AICN should change its name to Star Wars Complaints Department. The Talkbackers ability to complain over every lil pic or bit of information is the reason why they will continue to be the butt of Kevin Smith jokes. Anyway...
These pics are none to exciting, just glimpses of some of the characters. Wait until the Jedi war footage gets posted, now THAT is something to get excited about. That and Hasbro making the ripped shirt Amidala figure, heh heh heh! -
Does Ewan Macgregor look as if he's playing Jesus Christ in this movie? He even has the exact same kind of robe, man!
-
It's not that the geeks are bitching and moaning about Star Wars it's just that they want to be comedians, horrible ones at that. Making fun of the Attack Of The Clones, of the way characters look, of well... every-damn-thing! Can't we have an actual serious adult duscussion about a movie without it becoming some kind of amateur night for comedians? Your jokes are lame, enough of that shit. Anyways why are you making fun of the Episode Two's title? Empire Strikes Back and Return Of The Jedi were cool titles?? And you actually think that the guy with the eyepatch is goofier than the dudes from the original trilogy with those HUGE HELMETS? Umm I don't think so. Get your heads out of your asses people, Star Wars was created for kids, try not to take it to seriously.
-
ha that would be cool. Hooper: "Check this shit. You got cracker farm boy Luke Skywalker, Nazi poster boy, blond hair, blue eyes. And then you got Darth Vader, the blackest brother in the galaxy, Nubian god!" Banky:"What's a Nubian?" .... rotflmao
-
And the reason why the photos look so dark is that they were improperly scanned. It's a pity, too, because a digital file that comes out too dark is easier to correct for than one that comes out overexposed.
-
...Captain Typho, I believe.
-
Looking at those boring screenshot from Attack of the Clowns...LOL Some how the kid has grown increadibly fast and is now a teenager. This is one movie that looks worse and worse with every preview and every tidbit......eps 1 still left me uninterested in the Star Wars even more......now I'm VERY uninterested. So in 2002 I wait till this movie gets tossed in the rental bin.....or it's on HBO...otherwise I have no hope in SW....
-
I still can't get over that stupid title!!! What the fuck has Lucas been smoking?
Anyway, these pictures don't seem to look like anything special. I'm seeing Spider-Man again come May 22nd, from the looks of things. -
While I agree that the Amidala accent was terrible, Ms. Portman is only continuing the tradition started by Carrie Fisher in the original film. Remember the "The more you tighten your grip... the more star systems will slip through your fingers" bit? Leia's accent came and went with the wind, much like Kevin Costner's in "Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves". Aaah, who gives a shit anyway? It will be a guilty pleasure, and we all know it!
-
Blowdryers in SPACE! They fuck him up with rat-tails and now this! He really does look like those perfectly coiffed Jesuses that escort the fresh-faced children and timid woodland creatures thru sanitized, idyllic countryside settings.

I'll see it anyway. Looks nice so far. Snoogans

You people are like brain dead parrots, repeating the same shit over and over. Get over the Goddamn title!!

by jollydwarf
A.) These pictures are old. Like "Did you ever hear that band Nirvana?" old. B.) Just by looking at the picture of Christopher Lee and Samuel Jackson, I can almost see some Corellian cigars and Cognac from Alderaan just outside the frame, which will be picked up and enjoyed as the two discuss all of this pointless, fucked up Jedi-Sith bullshit. Of course that's right before they holo-order a couple high-priced Twilek [sic] escorts. Hey, high profile Coruscant residents ONLY use incall services. (Outer Rim planets allow them to be less covert, but that's for Episode XXX, I'm sure) Oh well, football time! Enough of this movie gossip internet stuff! Gimme Jimmy Kimmel smarting off and Pat Summerall droning "Touchdown Marshall Faulk..." and tomorrow, more esoteria from D-Miller and of course, the crux of the NFL...Melissa Starks!
-
You all want to know what makes me happy. It's that while you guys bitch and moan aboutest the dumbest things, and talk about how bad a movie that you have never seen is. George Lucas sits back, makes the movie he wants to make, and brings in the millions. Do any of you think Lucas cares about your idiotic critcisms and half-witted comments. Face it, no matter what, he is a better film maker than any of you will ever be. No matter what any of you say, millions will see this movie, it will be a top 5 grosser at least, and every one of you will see it.
-
I was also unaware that members of the village people were making cameos in this. I'm sure I don't want to know how he lost that eye.

OK. I am sick of hearing about how lame the title of this movie is. Of course it is lame. All of the Star Wars titles have been unimaginative, including the name of the overall series. I care far more about the content of the film than the title, anyway. I just hope Jar Jar is either kept to the background this time, or at least he will have evolved past the "walking joke" concept he was in the last movie. The other 3 had comic moments without resorting to a character who served no other purpose. Back to the title bit, does anyone remember this wotking title? Revenge of the Jedi? He may change this on, too. Revenge even had merchandise that hit the stores before anyone knew what was going on. As long as the movie is good I will overlook any title he could stick this with.

"Attack of the Clones" -- Hmm, whose producing, Roger Corman?
by nixflix007
Oh, wait, sorry, didn't mean to insult Mr. Corman. God, what a stupid title. But at least Natalie Portman looks incredibly yummy. Hopefully she won't be talking in that lifeless monotone from the first film. Damn, what was THAT about, Mister Lucas?
-
"Attack of the Clones" it is. It's not gonna change. And yes when I first heard "The Empire Strikes Back" I was scared to death. I hated it. But geee....after seeing it.... It worked. So GET OVER IT! Save all your bitching and moaning till after you've seen the movie. If it sucks, fine. Bitch till your fingers fall off. Give George a chance huh? If you want something to complain about why not try "Temple of Doom" THAT left a fowl taste in my mouth.
-
Because despite his latest movie, which all too accurately depicted us porn-addicted basement-dwellers, we still continue to fit the bill. Has anyone seen any footage from this movie? Is there a trailer out yet? Do you know anything about the plot other than the endlessly repeated rumors? All of us were creaming our jeans over the Episode I trailers, and were lining up like circus seals to pleasure George the Flanneled. I love reading about youse all that say they're going to either boycott Ep. II or rent it. You'll be complaining about the movie while camped out for tickets, you'll be complaining about the movie dressed up like Stormtroopers waiting in line to see it, and you'll be complaining after the tenth time you see it in the theater. You'll even complain while plunking down valuable porn rental dollars for the Special Edition Super-Duper Director's Ultimate Definitive Version DVD of Episode I. So shut up and clean the cum stains of your monitors. That stuff will leave streaks if you don't clean it right away. Bonggg.
-
When you say "Temple of Doom" left a fowl taste in your mouth, exactly what kind of fowl? Was it chickeny, turkey-like, or even quailish? Personally, I always though it left an albatross-y taste in my mouth, but that was probably from the three-day old popcorn I was eating during the movie. But you're right, the movie pretty much ate it.
-
I mean, "Motorcycle enthusiast."

And here to analyze another AICN Talkback message board! Frankly the only clones I see attacking are the AICN talkbackers. How many of these posts are not replicas from the last report on ep2? They look alike to me. We
-
...unlike Episode 1, I won't be waiting in long lines, and beating up kids for a chance to see it opeing day. I won't be let down again like that by Jabba the Neck.(How does Lucas only gain weight there?)
-
Lucas did everything in his power to distance TPM from the OT. OBI-WAN was a minor character (until the end), no trace of Vader in sweet ANAKIN, No overwhelming evil in control like the EMPIRE (except the taste we get from Maul in the third act), completely different aesthetic choices to the look of the galaxy, no problematic characters like "bitchy" LEIA or "asshole" HAN (well except for an emotional basket case known as JAR JAR), a good PALPATINE, etc............
BUT THIS WAS DONE ON PURPOSE: It is a BEGINNING. Lucas is going to tie the prequels to the OT, with the next two episodes, in a BIG WAY. AND YOU WILL REMEMBER LUCAS IS KING. -
So we like messing with Lucas for his insane movie titles, so what? Just cause you don't have any SENSE OF HUMOR doesn't mean the rest of us have to be just like your pitiful ass. So why don't YOU bitches stop YOUR whining and let us make fun of Lucas and his dumbass title. OKAY, ASSMUNCHES???

I can't wait to see "Attack of the Clones". "The Phantom Menace" had it's flaws, but when I was watching it I was 12 again, not a jaded 30 something, movie nerd, and I know it will be the same with this one and the one after that. I will also gladly plunk down my hard earned money to own however many DVD special editions as I have to, to make my wife happy because she is a bigger fan than I, and has read all of the novels and collects the toys.
Why do we love these movies? It is the same reason that we love most movies, because there is no art form as satisfying, and even at their worst, movies are worth viewing just to laugh at how bad they are.
Anyone who so viciously hates these movies probably has considerablly less talent than they claim Lucas lacks and will never complete anything as interesting or ground breaking, so I guess you naysayers have every right to whine and wallow, because if you can't sit down and enjoy these "Star Wars" movies, there probably isn't much you can enjoy without complaining.

"Attack of the Clones", is Lucas making a political statement?
by sithscorp
Just a small tidbit here on the title... I wonder if old Georgie boy is trying to cash-in on all of the cloning hype in the media these days. Also, is it possible that ihe is trying to send a message about how human cloning can be twisted into a horrible war machine? Think about it, a country with a tiny populace could also raise an army of millions very quickly. On an even more scary note, they could find one "super soldier" and clone him a million times. No individuality, only the perfect army. Damn scary that george is pointing this out!!! Time to head back into the shadows... SithScorp out...
-
You know those people like NixFlix007 who write all tough, like "you'd better like/not like this, BEE-OTCH!", or "It was the Shit and if ya'll dis me I'll pop a cap!". It's pretty easy to act tough when you will never have to face the people you are addressing. Especially when in reality you are just a computer nerd with too much time on your hands. The same people that would piss themselves in real life confrontations. I also enjoy the talk backers who take every rule in the english language and flush them down the toilet. It is so easy to take them seriously when they type something like "Wats it 2 U man? U R stpuid and dotn no wat U R taklin abot."

Unfortunately you can't really blame Episode 1 on Jar Jar...
by happywaffle
I was lucky enough to see the Phantom Edit, and it led to a disturbing realization: Phantom Menace really, actually, sucked. Jar Jar was spliced out nicely, to the point that he (and Anakin's yippeeing) were no longer distractions. And with those out of the way, we were upset to notice the more fundamental problems with this movie: plot. Dialogue. Acting. Yep, I sincerely wish the suckage on Episode I were a nice layer of fat that we could skim off the top, but it ain't. That having been said, I'm still first in line (though not overnight) for Attack of the Clones. It's still bloody Star Wars, people. And it looks to have more likable parts. I got tears in my eyes when Ewan McGregor reported that the E2 script was "much, much better."
-
Wow! And why is he talking to M.Bison from Street Fighter?
-
That picture of Ewan totally supports Kevin Smith's theory of Star Wars and religion from Dogma. He must have a 'told you so' look on his face right now.
-
I know that the hype for the whole Star Wars franchise is as important as actually seeing the movies themselves. Both for the fans and the journalists who become actively involved in the eager anticipation of these movie milestones (as I see them). Everybody wants to have their say as to how they would like Attack of the Clones to turn out. People will say that the title is crap. others will say give it a rest. You may question the casting, roll your eyes at the thought of more Jar Jar Binks or wonder about whether or not Obi Wans beard is long enough or the right shape. I understand that this is important to the fans. When TPM came out it was disclosed that Lucas wasn't going to release a DVD until all 3 were finished. Of course his stance on this has changed. A buddy of mine was cursing his name over several pints at our local pub over the initial news. I said it to him then and I'll say it again now. It's Lucas's baby. He calls the shots. Let every man woman and child speculate and theorise about the clones or the Sith Lords all they want. George Lucas may listen. He may even get some inspiration from such comments. Yet at the end of the day, the final word is his. End of story.
-
I'm 25 now. I first saw Star Wars on video when I was a kid. Words cannot describe the awe I felt when I saw it. That and the other 2 titles afterwards. I still like the whole franchise. I also liked the A-Team when I was a kid too. But now I'm older and have no more use for such childish things. Don't get me wrong. I'm not dumping on Star Wars. I'm just saying that the way movies in this genre are more abundant these days. It sort of numbs the taste a little bit. Can many people who saw the first installment as a kid watch the new installment with the same wonder and awe today? You're older and more objective now. Of course you criticise the titles. Ask a five year old what they think of the new title and they'll just smile and fart or something...Oh yeah, Tipperary beat Galway in the All-Ireland Hurling final by 2 points. Damn!.....................................nothing to do with throwing up by the way.

SW is getting cheesier and cheesier
-
It's not about a sense of humor. It's just that the title's been out for a month now and people still won't SHUT THE FUCK UP about it. When is enough enough? Actually it is about sense of humor too because none of these people are funny.
-
. . . must be the evil clone! Come on, guys. They've been using that trick on soap operas for years now!
-
And i beleive he loses that eye in action very early in the movie.
-
That's not Captain Panaka and Obi-Wan. Those are their EVIL CLONES! Eyepatches and facial hair have been mainstays of evil twin/clones on soap operas for years now!
. . . The Dick is out -
Are you going to spit or swallow? God, that was tasteless. Anyway, TPM was the best damn SW movie so far. Lucas is a consumate genius, and you jerk-offs are not even fit to tie his sneakers. I truly hope Jay and Silent Bob will be paying you a visit sometime soon. And for those of you whining about Amidala's monotone voice ... oh never mind. On to the Natalie masturbation fantasies. I was just thinking ... remember Coming to America? Eddie Murphy's royal bathers? So, it kinda has to make you wonder ... did Amidala's handmaidens ever bathe her? You know, the Queen and two of her handmaidens in a Theed bathhouse, all naked. The handmaidens could like get a good lather going, and then spend those long, hot, Naboo summer afternoons rubbing soap all over Amidala's nude body. And then they might kiss a little bit or something. I'm sure it might have happened once or twice. Sigh.
-
that the phrase "Wilt Chamberlain of the bedroom", *by itself*, is not a metaphor. Instead, the phrase, *by itself*, is constructed merely to distinguish from, e.g., "Wilt Chamberlain of the basketball court". This post is not, and cannot be construed as, a critique of Harry's writing. To me my own.
-
I don't think it's possible for this series to get any "cheesier". Every Star Wars film is cheesy as hell, which is why they all suck. ;)
-
so, i hate to compare LOTR and Ep2...but i feel i have to. I just returned from the Behind the Scenes of LOTR show in NYC, and man...It's got everything that these screenshots, and everything i've seen from Lucas lately lacks.
We only saw a few minutes of the final film, but even in that few minutes...there was more Drama, STYLE, and excitement, than in that whole piece of trash Ep1! These screenshots don't make me feel any better about it, either. They're just...boring. Makes me fear this movie, it does... -

He's a very funny and famous actor here in Australia. I remember reading that he was in this movie, so it's probably him.
-
I'm not too worried about the wierdo accent she used in EP1. I mean, everybody knows that Padme is the true queen now anyway, since in EP1 she told the Gungans about the decoy Amidala. Maybe there will be much more Padme and less Amidala in EP2, because they don't have to pretend in front of the main characters anymore? Ah, fuck it. I'm goin to bed. Maybe I'll join the bitchfest again tomorrow. :)

Scary stuff
-
So far these pictures are giving me quite a jones for the new episode. They look neat. I'm really excited about the lighting and color in these pictures. They're dark and look like they are concentrating on the story this time rather than solidifying their love affair with CGI. I hope I get to see this become like "The Empire Strikes Back" seeing how that's my favorite of the series and one of the first ever movies I saw in the theaters. However, despite Harry's love for the title I have to say that it inspires worry. Of course, I worry about any movie the word attack in the title. It makes me think of MST3K. Though it is an episodic title sound like old serials, it doesn't exactly roll off the tongue like "Return of the Jedi" now does it. Well, thanks for letting me post, this is really cool talking on a site where people like you guys love movies as much as I do.

Those of you who employed referrences to Jesus and Pirates in your criticism of this most recent Star Wars project surrender any and all credibility as critics of anything. Does your imagination truly begin and end with knee-jerk associations with recognizable symbolism. Eyepatch = Pirate. Beard and robes = Jesus. The Cow Says = Mooooo. I stand in awe of your inteligence. Some people talk because they like the sound of their own voice. Others like to criticize because it makes them feel superior in some dellusional way. It is your right to do so, but PLEASE know that you make an ass of yourselves when you exercise this right in such a fashion. Why were there no references Jeses in relation to Alec Guinness' Kenobi? Because poor little Jesus never got his 'picture taken' as an old man? I will admit that my post here is getting rediculous. Garbage begets garbage. Lighten up and enjoy the show, dorks!

First up on my mother fuckin' chopping block is mr candy ass himself mulderlestat. That whole shit he tried to shovel about how, "the kid has grown up super fast now". Maybe if he actually gave a shit about the film instead of just coming online to try and royally screw it in the rim-ram ass just like alot of other haters who just like to trash things anonymously (sp) online when they know they are going to see the damn film, then he might just know like most other people that Episode II takes place ten years after the events that transpired in Phantom Menace. Thanks for playing Mulderlestat, you fbi vampire you, but you don't win the new jersey vacation (by the way, I had fun boning your momma last night)
As for the people who have voiced their tired sentiments about trashing the title.....while you definitely do not need to hear it from me especially after the heartless comment i made to mulderlestat, i would like to say you are smartest people on the internet, finally a glimmer of intelligence shows through in this electronic media blanket of darkness.

I will admit that my post here is getting rediculous. Garbage begets garbage. Lighten up and enjoy the show, dorks!

This latest installment of the Star Wars Saga will be really good because I think Lucas is telling a real subliminal tale in addition to the more obvious tale of Anakin's metamorphosis. The one thing that people COMPLETELY missed in Episode I was the fact that the title, The Phantom Menace, referred mostly to the threat of the Trade Federation and the working of Darth Sidious. The Trade Federation is a good parable of the World Trade Organization and I don't think that there's any coincidence that the spark that lights the flame of Empire is the inner workings of commerce. This is the world as we see it today. It is a hidden order and a hidden agenda. Something that Star Trek would do well to study in an effort to breathe some life into that ailing franchise. Whatever happens in AOTC will probably be COMPLETELY looked over so that inarticulate critics and life-lacking geeks can lambast it for no other reason then that it's Star Wars. The movie itself will satisfy.

some of you guys are pretty funny. I've read all of the posts and a couple of them actually made me laugh out loud. But most of you are just rehashing the same jokes I hear on every single SW talkback: Attack of the Clowns (That got old after the first 100 times) or some other variation of the title. The Lucas bashing. Whether it be the size of his neck, his fondness for flannel, his writing and directing skills, etc. The quality of acting in these films, etc. It's been done and done and done. What really cracks me up though are comments like: I'll see it, but not that many times. Or, I'll see it, but I'm not standing in line overnight. Uh, yeah guys, this is what normal people do. They don't stand in lines dressed up like Jedis waiting to see a movie that isn't opening for another two weeks. Some of you guys make Star Trek fans look normal. Take that Trekkers! Just kidding! Hey look, I'm a huge Star Wars fan, have seen the movies countless times, collect the memorabilia, blah blah blah. And I don't mind making fun of the series (It ain't perfect!) but some of you really need to get some new material. "Jesus was a Jedi?", "It's a Space Pirate, AARRGGH!" Get it? Yeah, I get it. That's reeeaaalllyyy funny.

We already established Jesus is in the clone movie.... But the black guy is definitely Cuba Gooding Jr. No doubt in my mind. Are Ben Affleck and Whoopi Goldturd in this one?

I love movies. But if there's another thing that I love it's hilariousness. The guy (I can't remember his name) that said he didn't like to hear his own voice but he loved to hear his keyboard and then typed in noises like he was punching keys... that was pretty damned funny. I want to party with you cowboy.
