Okay...okay...
Let me Explain myself.
#1-It was 4:00AM when I typed that.
#2-I absoultely HATED the movie.
I am very, very confused.
I want to see this version of "Revenge of the Sith" that all of the reviewers saw, which
"explained" all of the gaps and mysteries in the Star Wars mythology...because it could not have been the same movie I saw last night.
...oh sure...stuff
Happened...but none of it made any sense.
Every movie in the Star Wars saga has had cheezy lines. It's a "campy" series. The originals were memorable like that.
...but the lines in THIS movie were not fun, memorable quotes like "...aren't you a little short to be a storm trooper?...". NO. Instead, the lines were all soo painful to listen to that I could hardly keep watching. For example...one of Darth Vaders last spoken lines in the film, screamed into the air.
(...come on. Anyone who has seen the movie...that was supposed to be a dramatic moment. ...but didn't you LAUGH? ...it was
that bad.)
Anakins motivations for everything he did in the film (including his reasons for joining the dark side), just didn't make sense. The moment before he pledges his loyalty to Palpatine, he was figting to uphold the ideals of the Jedi order...then suddenly he just INSTANTLY changes his mind.
WTF?!
...Yoda fails to whoop the Emperors @** ONCE, and so decides to give up and go into exile...
...Hunh?...
None of the battles were as exiting or intense as even the battles in the first two pre-quils. Sure...there were MORE soldiers, ships and explosions...but the film didn't make you care about ANY of it.
...they didn't bother to elaborate on why the twins Luke and Leia "had to be split up"...
...they didn't bother to give any reason why C-3PO's memory was wiped...they just...did.
...Darth Vader never weilds the red ligtsaber in this film...or does ANYTHING while wearing the black suit, for that matter...

I must say, though, that I'm a little insulted that even though I listed reason after reason why this one is the best prequel, and Vuldari simply said "Don't see it" without any evidence whatsoever, Figarou has decided to listen to Vuldari and not see it in theaters, instead of either a) going with the opinion of someone who actually presented his argument or b) going to watch it and make up his own mind about whether it's good or not.
And I know people aren't fans of critics, but this one is getting the best reviews since "Empire": Four Stars, Two Thumbs Up, "The Force is with Lucas in Ep. III," "This one delivers," "The best of the prequels," etc., etc.
...
...seriously...are there TWO versions of this movie? The film I saw felt like a Bad cartoon or a Bad fan-film with lot's and lot's of special effects. What I saw was NOTHING like what other people are describing as "The BEST since...(*Insert previous favorite SW movie*)...".
In fact...it is my opinion that Episode III was the WORST film I have seen on the big screen since ...well... Jurassic Park III .
I LOVE special effects. The SFX was a major part of what make the orignals so memorable and spectacular. ...but covering a horribly written script with millions of dollars worth of Eye-Candy does NOT make it a good movie.
The "Clone Wars" cartoon series is really strange...but it was at least COOL. The cartoon did a better representation of the characters than the movie did. ...Anakin...Obi--Wan...Grevious...Padme...Yoda...Mace-Windu...Count Dooku...
...All cooler in the cartoon than in this film.
Watch it if you must...but don't expect high-grade drama or quotable diologue.
Personally, I am going to try to forget that I ever saw this movie.
Everyone is intiltled to their own opinions...and mine is that :
"Star Wars: Episode III "Revenge of the Sith" is the
Worst Film in the Star Wars Saga...
WHY George Lucas?!?!...
