Star Wars III

I personally liked it and can not wait to see it again. I agree that there were some things that were bad but overall..... a great movie and was not disappointed. I thought better than the first 2.

jees.. my stupidity results in a bunch of verbal gun shots!
sorry people.. deleted my post.
I figured that when I posted, almost all of the people will know because of the many clues given in the star wars products such as books and flashmovies (there's a great Lego movie of it on www.Lego.com)
it's these things that make me want to crawl into a hole and never post again... sigh.
I bet someone's gonna say something about how much of a coward I am or how much of an idiot I am!
as I have deleted my post, Larry, you might want to delet the quote to NOT GIVE IT AWAY ANY FURTHER

I think the guy who played Anikin was MUCH better and more mature in this picture but he was still a bit child like. Some one recomended seeing the first two movies but don't forget The Clone Wars cartoon. It fills in the gaps between the second movie and this one. Any one notice that Clone Wars explains Gen. Grievious's "condition" he seemed to have? I beleive it was because Mace Windu gave him a chronic case of the Force in Clone Wars. (I think that is vague enough not to be a spoiler.) If you notice GG behaves "differently" than in the cartoon though he was still formidable.
I missed the Falcon, I'll have to keep an eye out next time I watch it there ws just so much motion going on in those previous scenes i don't see how anybody caught it!LOL

-That's what I've heard the Brits have been saying about the movie. The American reviewers have been kinder, but even they point out that the dialogue will make you --squirm on occasion.


Bad Dialogue is characteristic of all the Star Wars films. There have been some good one liners along the way, but no one will ever accuse Lucas of writing good Dialogue. Over all the film was enjoyable, tied up some loose ends and some of the disconnects opened by the first 2 prequels. It added a few more disconnects, but I don't think Lucas went and looked at the Original 3 films at all before he wrote these three. I think it is worth seeing in the theaters on the large screens.

Oh thank God! I can dismiss the spoiler as a rumor and enjoy the movie now!

Hell, I'll probably see it anyway.

it's still a better movie than the first two though, or maybe i just haven't seen those in a while. not saying it was a waste of 146 minutes though.

Did not notice that. I remember reading reading somewhere in a semi-official source that there was a rumor going around that the Milllenium Falcon was once the covert personal transport of Palpatine. Obviously, one of those things that never panned out (like the Wookies all have Jedi powers) but still interesting, if you are into that whole alternate history/what if thing.

So, if I really liked Ep I and II, (not to mention IV, V, and VI) then I'll really REALLY like this one?
Woo-hoooo!

...geez, you guys make me feel like a complete idiot becuase I actually liked the first two (I and II)!

Anyway, I still won't get to see III until July 9th, when it FINALLY opens here in Japan!

I refuse to buy the $10 pirated DVDs already available here in the streets.

I want a Boga model....

(As for the movie, I enjoyed it )

I seriously want an ARC-170 model. That thing is COOL. Since it reminds me so much of the P-61, I'm probably gonna build one up (when they come out, of course) as a special ops , all black bird.

The movie was pretty good. I agree things seemed to rush at the end, and the "NOOOOOOOOOOO" was laughable. (heck, laughable doesn't even begin to cover it. That outright ruined the movie for me!) But overall it was a major leap over I and II.

Have to agree with Larry: "lots of good modeling potential". Not only that, since its all unfortunately CGI We could get ahold of the meshes (I don't know how myself really) and then have lots of good scratchbuilding potential. If you have the mesh the scratchbuild is simple IMO.

I'm glad to hear that people are liking it more than the first two. I didn't really care for them at all. I hope this one is better. Apparently this one has lots of good model potential. Have you guys seen the Sideshow statue of the new hand to hand bad guy? Don't click if you want a surprise in the theater (and have been living under a rock! ):
