Acmlm's Board - I2 Archive

Spoiler:

- Overall I think Hayden greatly improved from Episode II, in fact his only "cheesy" dialogue parts were with Padme and their goofy love talks. (They were horrible)
- But who did I think did bad? Palpatine, seriously. For myself, and my friends, we agreed he either did "Fantastic" or "Horrible". When Mace Windu had his lightsaber to his neck, and Anakin came up and Palpatine says "Nooooooo, Noooooo", he looked and sounded absolutely hilarious. He had some really cheesy moments, but then some awesome moments that just made me picture him from Episode V and VI.
- Grevious should have been better. Four freaking lightsabers? And he was ended that quickly? I was a little dissapointed with this character overall.
****Ultimate Plot Goofup****
- Think back to Return of the Jedi, and when Leia and Luke had their talk on Endor, and look reveals that they're sister and brother. Well in this conversation Luke brings up their parents, Leia says that she remembers her mother, and that she was beautiful. Now, according to Episode III, how exactly does this work out when Padme dies right after child birth? I can believe that Leia may be thinking of Organa, but still that birth part wasn't put together very well. My friend says Luke and Obi-Wan discuss Luke's father in Episode IV also, I cannot clerify on this though myself as I can't really remember if that's true. (In other words, Luke remembers his father a bit too, thus how would it work out according to Episode III?)
- It seemed like Yoda kind of gave up on his fight with Palpatine, if you ask me, I'd say Yoda was owning up on him.
- I think the scene that hinted the very fact that Anakin killed the young Padawans was a bit extreme, and the movie could have been fine without. But, this after all a very dark movie.
- I almost felt like tearing when the "Empire" started killing the Jedi's.
- One thing I didn't like about how this movie was put together, was the flow with Anakin. You look at the beginning of the movie, and he tells himself that killing Douku is bad. By the end of the movie, he's killing people and children left and right like flies. A little HUGE jump there I'd say.

Overall this movie was great (I know I know, my complaints probably gave you the idea that I didn't like it, but I honestly did). I loved how it filled in the holes, and tied things together, from simple things like Obi-Wan picking up Anakin's lightsaber, to huge things like how the Seperists were ended, etc.

Overall, I wouldn't say it matched up to the orginals, but then again how could anything? I think it's just the flow of the New Trilogy, and the overexageration, that kind of lowered it's "greatness" factor when compared to the more believable, and more broad Original Trilogy.

I'd give this movie, probably a 9.5 out of 10. (10 being impossible, except I'd give EsB and RotJ both a 10 =P)
