Anyone disappointed by Revenge of the Sith?

Before I rant, I just want to know.

Let's hear it from you

To the point that I almost started falling asleep inbetween fight scenes. And any woman w/ Padme's attitude towards life and love deserves to die.
Fight scenes kicked ass but that was about it. Thank goodness there are alot of them.
Sorry for the fans out there (and I am one of them) but I actually heard people in the theatre talking about how pissed they were after the movie.

As far as I'm concerned cheesy dialog is a given

I'm looking for action

As long as there's a lot of it, I'm happy

I will tell you to see it but you don't have to run out immediately.
The Padme and Annikan crap will irritate you.

For political implications, there are many references to the Nixon administration and our own current administration (which made me giggle). They were all in ref. to Emperor Palpitine. It'll make a great story for all the pukes. Drink the Kool-aid and forget about your old life.
Otherwise, it was still better than I and II.

Otherwise, it was still better than I and II.

...taking a bath in hydrochloric acid would still be better than I and II.

;-)

But it's still no Empire.

you take JarJar out of 1 and it is kick ass. To me he is no worse than C-3PO, who I always detested. I haven't seen II in ages, but there was some bad ass shit in there too

give me some sweet light saber fights and I'll be happy.

It's so much deeper than that, so I'm with you MrScorpio, some people just don't understand "The Force".

If that makes MOI a geek/dork/freak, be it so :loveya:

if you're not with me you're my enemy (DUH) etc.

so yeah, dialogue forced and wooden, like Pinocchichimp himself.

I know one little Space Cowboy who is going to be vewwy vewwy angwy when he sees it--it's all about how W seized power and is evil and won't go away and gets his followers to slaughter children, and pretending to fight for democracy when they are really establishing a totalitarian empire! The Jedi aren't strong enough to make him back down so they have to hide!

Line after line from the Pukkke talking points!

I don't know what the freeper ilk are going to do about this. If they are star wars fans they will be shamed, i think. (hah) if there's any justice!

Yeah, they sucked Padme's fighting spirit out of her. Pathetic.

material made reference to the Nixon administration.
It's interesting how well his story arc was easily turned into an argument against Bush.
The references were very easy to catch.

They'll just play the martyr and say Lucas is a "dirty, commie, Librul who wants turrists to take over our country!"

:shrug:

Cool on the big screen (at least the fights are).
I'll try to catch you in the afternoon. Time for bed here.

I will be online tonight at YM. I have my DSL now with flatrate, so you can catch me then.

Reading and hearing the reviews of this movie. I didn't know George Lucas was considered such a crappy director. I guess he doesn't communicate well with the actors, hence the critics bemoan the dialogue of not just this prequel but the other SW movies as well. I always thought the shows were hugely popular, but again I dont know movies from nothing. It wouldn't be the first time popular beat out good.

Yoda ruled that flick!

"but ... I was going to the Tashi station to pick up some power converters!"

Poor poor Luke. Wahhhh wahhhhh! :cry: My SO and I laugh every time we see that.

Granted, the acting was atrocious, but it was still way way better than the first two prequels. I thought Anakin's turn to the dark side was a bit sudden, and some of the action bordered on melodramatic, but all in all I thought it was a great film. There were even some funny bits, too. Oh, and no dialog from Jar Jar!!!

no......

'course.. that could be because I got to see many of the main characters from Star Wars.. and it just kinda tied it all
together.

there were a few cheesey scenes. one actually made me
laugh out loud.. where Darth Vader clenches his fists and says "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO". heh..

anyway.. my son and I really liked it.

I know Vader was still a bit "human" at that point, but I thought that was unnecessary.
