M: So what did you think about the movie?

W: Well, I think this "Star Wars" episode 1 is an excellent piece of work, but not as good as the previous ones.

M: Really? I don't agree. This "Star Wars" episode was incredible 2!

W: Why do you think so?

M: Well, one of the most spectacular 3 things about this one was the special effects. State of the art special effects are the main reason for the success of previous episodes 4, so audiences have high expectations for this one, and I don't think they will be disappointed.

W: You are right. The special effects were amazing. And I like the fact that they created so many fantastic settings 5 and otherworldly costumes, weapons and creatures.

M: It's kind of cool that they are still using the same “Star Wars” theme song for this movie.

W: Yeah! It reminds me of the previous "Star Wars" scenes.

M: I know exactly what you mean. Hearing that song gives me a nostalgic feeling.

W: I thought the overall 6 plot of the movie was very interesting, but I don't think the character development was that strong.

M: Do you think that they had anything to do with the casting of the movie?

W: No, the casting is great and the actors were excellent. They just didn’t have a lot of funny or meaningful dialogues. The writing was also a little weak.

M: Well, maybe. But I like the little kid who played “Anakin Skywalker”. I can't imagine anyone else playing that role.

W: I liked him too. He is so cute! You know, even though I was slightly disappointed, I can't wait for the next episode. I wonder when they’re going to start making it and when it’s scheduled for release 7?

M: I've no idea. But looking at the success of "Star Wars" episode, I've a strong feeling production for the next episode will be selling pretty soon. I hope It will be even better than this one.

W: I hope so, too.

M: Well, I think we should go now. It's getting pretty late.

W: Okay, let's go!
