I just got back from seeing it...and wow. I liked the first two prequels, but this one is in the same leauge as the original trilogy. Why couldn't George have put that much energy and effort into the first two prequels? The acting actually had some feeling this time. The immolation scene was effective and disturbing, at least for me.

I didn't even know that it was that long, I was so entranced by it. It actually seemed kind of short.

Oh, I forgot to give it a kitakaze rating. While you can debate how well the film is made, you can't argue how much I enjoyed it as a Star Wars fan.

Kitakaze's rating: 4.5 out of 5

Some other ones:

Episode I: 3 out of 5
Episode II: 3.5 out of 5
Episode III: 4.5 out of 5
Episode IV: 5 out of 5
Episode V: 5 out of 5
Episode VI: 4 out of 5

Just got back... Very good movie. Sure, it's sorta anti-climactic, but still enjoyable... I'd give it an 8.5 out of 10.

Of course, the effects were spectacular, but the key was Ian McDiarmid's Chancellor Palpatine. The guy is evil incarnate.


Trailers I saw/remembered:

The Longest Yard - Adam Sandler. :bleh:
Fantastic Four - Jessica Alba's not enough motivation for me to see this flick.
Mr. and Mrs. Smith - No interest in Angelina Jolie.

Was hoping to see trailers for Batman Begins and The War of the Worlds, but it wasn't to be.

I think it'll be worth it...

...As long as you don't have to sit near some stupid kids: if I recall Fridays are school days and this woman bring her three stinkin' pre-teen kids to the movie... A number of people asked them to be quiet including me.

Twerps. :smack:

Don't tell me they were yapping about when Vader would appear.... :shakehead: Or was it during the violent parts I've been hearing of?

Nah, just bickering amongst themselves. And this "guardian" had no control over them. :shakehead:

Also, once the end credits started, this woman in front of me whips out her cellphone to check her calls... :smack:

It's a wonder I was able to enjoy the movie at all.
