By itself a Good Movie BUT Where has the Star Wars "feeling" Gone?

Rating: 7/10 (14 November 2002)

I love the Star Wars films and have since I saw Star Wars IV in the theater as a kid. This is a very good movie and it is great to finally see the beginning unfold, but it seems with the special effects and abilities George Lucas has found, he has lost that true Star wars feeling. You remember in the original the spine tingling shots like when Luke and the Princess swung across the missing bridge, you felt it. Also the Original movies had a look, be it lack of modern special effects or intended look from Lucas, either way I loved it, The greys gave a "cold and dark feeling" to space. The new movies have changed and do not have the look of the with the new colors and everything stepped ahead of the older, they do not fit in with the old. The new movies make the ships and technology look more advanced than the original trilogy which comes later in time after the movies we see now.
Don't get me wrong I love the new movies and I love this Movie, was great to see Yoda kick some #$@! But they just don't give you the same feeling as the original Trilogy. Lucas said he decided against doing episodes VII, IIX, & IX, in a way I hate to hear this, But in another way I am very glad, because I do not want to see Star Wars go out in a slump, I can only see it changing more and more.
