I own you all because I skipped two days of school and camped out to see it at 12:01
Episode 3

Lol.
Oh and I forgot to add this to my post above... it was kinda, strange to see Natalie Portman delivering Leia and Luke. Like I said earlier, she just didn't quite connect too too well with real emotional scenes in my opinion.

Let the naysayers bitch all they want...the movie kicked ass. George has almost redeemed himself. I'll probably even go see it again.
Agreed.ghostrider said:
And after school's out I might have to bust out all the other movies and watch them all in order, hahahaha. 
That movie was awesome! George Lucas is still the MAN! Best of the whole series, the movie stands alone as well as it not only ties together, but really defines the whole series of movies. Homerun, out of the park, bravo.
i dont get it... why does the robot cough? and why doesnt the one guys arms bleed when anakin lops them off? and why didnt jar jar binks get a speaking role? i did like the army of chewbaccas though.
george lucas is just played.
I think he was a cyborg.dirtjumpP.1 said:
this robot is rumored to be Darth Maul from Epi1 , which Darth Sidious (Palpatine) revived in a robot form , just like he did with vader later on.
ok.... but why-sa no-sa ja-ja binks-sa
Lol. Who knows.dirtjumpP.1 said:
He's got a bad case of space bronchitis.dirtjumpP.1 said:
Duh, cuz that guys the original Dracula and his tank was a little low.dirtjumpP.1 said:
Thankfully he had a bad case of galactic laringitis.dirtjumpP.1 said:
I saw thew 12:00 AM showing (only cause I have a friend that's a Star Wars freak and she got tickets a month in advance). R2-D2 kicks ass and almost all of the fighting is amazingly choreographed. I love Star Wars cause it's a great story, not cause of the quality directing/scriptwriting.
Cause the robot is actually an alien (look close at the face), lightsabers cauterize so people don't bleed, and we hate Jar Jar. I know way too much about this to seem cool.dirtjumpP.1 said:
If Anakin had lopped off Jar Jar's head whilst killing Jedi, the movie would be up for an Oscar.dirtjumpP.1 said:
yeah... and another question, why does the ship begin to sink in space? (in the beginning after anakin decapitates that dude)
dirtjumpP.1 said:
I would guess it gets affected by Coruscant's gravity field, after the ships stabilizers fail.
Portman's acting is the worse in comparison with all the other actors in the movie.
Anakin should have chopped JarJar in half... lets hope it is a deleted scene to watch on the dvd.
This is the best anyone can do to bash the movie? i love it, people are gonna be upset now that they can't bash Star Wars anymore.dirtjumpP.1 said:
No m'am, george lucas bashing is played.bigginsis said:
i hate how they made Yoda look like a pvssy... crawling thru the air vents, running away from the fight when he's not even injured. They should've had him and Palpatine both seriously injured and carried away by their respective minions. Yoda taken to Dagobah to heal, etc.
Now, we're left with the image of Yoda being a coward.

I got bored today so I went and saw it again.
Yeah I was kind of bummed that Mace could kick the emperors butt, but Yoda couldn't? I thought the movie was intense and sad. The way Anakin turned was just brutal but i thought it was appropriate to witness his askew perception due to his deception and need for justification. Rough movie. Mace got it the worst and Obi won definetly moved up the ranks in cool factor. How come the other Jedi "masters" went out so easily? That was weird too. Anakins a bits.
Mace didn't do crap. Palpatine was setting the scene to get Ani to kill Mace and complete his transformation to the Dark side. Since we're talking about Mace, that was some of Sam J's worst actingHeath Sherratt said:
That WAS weird and I thought that at the time. I guess some Jedi's can huck a 20' cliff, but some are just roadies.Heath Sherratt said:

Dude - he's a little green ogre. What the hell else should we think???LordOpie said:
*I liked the movie better than the last 2, but don't get why R2 could jet out of the ships and he had to be lifted out in other movies. That's the only flaw, other than they try to make things funny. Star Wars ain't no laughing matter.
I dunno man... young Carrie Fisher + better acting = super hot.Changleen said:
I saw E3 today and I thought it was visually outstanding but the story and acting wasn't that good compaired to Star Wars and The Empire Strikes Back.
There was so much computer generated effects that the couple scenes that didn't have them seem oddly out of place.
Also Yoda sucks as a computer generated character. They should have left him as a muppet... at least he had some personality back then.
Over all I give the flick 3 stoshes out of 5.

The resident nerd just explained that the jedis being killed was the revenge.
LordOpie said:
he's smart and waiting for the right moment. If he didn't go into hiding how long do you think he would have lasted with all the dark side trying to kill him as well as the clone troopers turning on him...he's bad @ss but not immortal...D
I was hoping for some Natalie Portman skin ala Carrie Fisher in the gold bikini in Jaba's lair.

Leave it to a wannabe canadian to defend that little green midget.BMXman said:
Jimmy Smits was a bit too similar to Billy Dee Williams.
Rule #1: The ability of Jedis to jump, flip, and kick ass using the Force is directly proportional to Lucas' need to advance the plot how he sees fit.
Rule #2: Jedis really like dropping their lightsabers and hanging off ledges, time and time again. Whether they can get their lightsaber back is an issue for Rule #1.
Rule #3 (well, comment, really, not a rule): CGI graphics just don't carry the flavor of the original Star Wars movies. These days, it'd be much cooler to do a movie WITHOUT CGI...the space-fights look like any old video game these days. Team America has probably had the best special effects of the last 5 years. Puppets rule.

Edit: Lucas' easy out at the end actually de-fused a lot of the things that had bothered me about the prequels...why, for example, C3PO doesn't recognize Tattoine in Ep 4...when he's acually FROM Tattoine. That 'wipe this droid's memory' line was just too easy. And it gave me less to gripe about. Grrrrr.

They are clumsy with the hands.N8 said:
THAT I can answer. The Star Wars movies are based on old samurai films, Kurosawa's "The Hidden Fortress" being the actual inspriation for Ep 4.N8 said:
In Japanese swordfighting, cutting off of the wrist or wrists is a classic cut...the other targets are the head, the side of the breastplate, and the throat. Sometimes the shin, as well, but that's more with a spear. It (cutting at the wrist) is called "Kote..." (koh-tay) The wrists are pretty vulnerable in a swordfight, getting stuck out there all the time.
I'm not so much a Star Wars geek as a general film geek. Plus my girlfriend asked the same question after the movie, so I had time to think about it.
