N'Sync in Star Wars

[Badyouken]

I can't believe this. I'm not a Star Wars fan but this is ridiculous.

The 5 members of N'Sync will have a cameo in Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones. Georges Lucas' adopted daughters really love them so he agreed to put them in a big fight for a short time. They will be Jedi Knights.

Fortunatly (we have to find a bright side to this), they will be blown up by battle droids.

That's almost enough to make one consider boycotting the movie.

Perhaps the Register was correct when it predicted that Attack of the Clones would not be hot. Seriously, they are a blip on the musical world that will be completely forgotten in 3 years, why oh why would you tarnish your movie with a cameo like that? Its absolutely ridiculous, i don't think i've ever been as disgusted or frustrated at anything I have ever read here.

I heard that Bono would be in one of the Star Wars episodes!! Playing a Poet or something, Anyone else heard anything about that??

I am disqusted by NSync. In 10 years when I show my kids Star Wars for the first time, I don't want to have to explain NSync.

Bono...hmmmm....Here's a chance for Mr. Lucas to redeem himself. All he needs to do is re-shoot the scene, have Bono to slay 'NStink with the Force by reciting some real lyrics. By so doing, their heads explode and everyone lives happily ever after.

 

[Roland of Gilead]

Have you seen the trailer???

It should of been called:

Star Wars: The Young and the Restless

It looks like crap. Now N'Stink is in it? Very fitting I think.

 

[Hewson]

Oh goody goody.
Maybe they'll have N'Sync do a duet with Jar jar binks on the soundtrack...they can call it N'Sync and Binks.
George Lucas should be locked away methinks.

The joker is the best card.

 

[sulawesigirl4]

Yeah, I saw the trailer the other day when I went to see LOTR again (which, btw, will soon prove to be the superior of the movie series, imo). It looked like Episode Two is all hearts and flowers. lmao. And I have to say...the guy they have playing him now seems to be about as good of an actor as the kid they had in Episode 1.

*sigh* And I do love Star Wars...what a shame.

[Bonochick]

Well, I've never seen a Star Wars movie, and I don't plan to.

Unless that Bono thing is true.

[Bonovation]

I heard they wanted this to be a low-budget film so I guess they're using n'sync as aliens....they won't need make up so saving a bit of money there

Anyway, the movie looks like it's gonna kick ass, and I can't wait.

Oh, and the Bono rumor is completely false.

*Thank you* NGL for saying exactly what I wanted to! Though I should add that, as it goes with the Star Wars universe, even as extras they'll likely turn up on a SW trading card at least.

(Ack! And here I was looking forward to my very own Bono SWCCG card!)

Despite the negative commentary here, we all know its going to do very well at the box office whether it has N'Sync in it or not.

 

[zooropamanda]

first its trailered as a romantic cheesy love story, now..

ugh

i hate hollywood

 

[IvanClaytonJnr]

I really believe , that it's just a new year's eve joke

 

[theSoulfulMofo]

Here's a thought..

Bono as MacPhisto to replace Darth Maul

MUWAHAHAHAHAA

 

[scatteroflight]

I actually enjoyed Episode 1, though I was more critical when I watched it again recently. It has good bits and not so good bits. I basically expect to enjoy Episode 2. I'm really not too critical, though I'm sure the original ones were better. As for the N'Sync thing, I'm not convinced it's true. If it is, it's stupid, but not fatal. Unless they actually start singing and dancing, which would be a bit much

But the new Lord of the Rings movie was probably better than any of the Star Wars movies ever. I'll have a better chance to decide when I see LOTR again, as I'm sure I will this month or next.

[zooropamanda]

its just not Star Wars

 

[Blue Room]

What you have to remember is that Lucas is making these movies for kids, not adults. There are just alot of adults who like to act like kids when it comes to Star Wars. I hate N Sync as much as the rest of you but honestly if no one would have said they were in it I probebly would not have even noticed they were in it. A 10 second cameo by some worthless celebrities certainly is not going to kill a movie.

The trailer that is in the theaters is only a glimpse of what the actual movie is about. I suggest you check out the hidden DVD trailer, you can get it on Morpheus. I think you may have a different opinion of you expectations of the movie then.

Bottom line, if you dont like Star Wars you are not going to like it. If you do, it may be one of the best of the series. Its amazing when people judge a movie that hasnt even been released by a 1:25 minute trailer.

 

[Dorian Gray]

Apparently they are on screen for no more than a second or two, in the distant background. Check out Aintitcool.com for info like this...

Bono was said to have approached Lucas for the role of a poet but I think the part was written out.

And I felt like a star...
