I thought it was the best of the prequel trilogy. Why? Because Anakin didn't just turn evil, he thought he was doing the right thing the whole time. He really thought the Jedi were threatening the democratic ideals of the Republic because he didn't realize how Palpatine was manipulating everything.

The whole time, he was an impetuous, influencable youth, and Palpatine took advantage of it.

Lots of nice tie-ins. For example, Jimmy Smit's ship was the Tantive IV, the first ship seen in the whole series (the one Leia was captured on). When he talks to 'Captain Antilles', I remembered that that was the name of the captain who Vader crushed the throat of in Episode IV when he lifted him off the ground in the beginning.

The method used to wipe out the jedi was a lot more realistic then Anakin going out and hunting them down one by one, and explained how it was they could be taken out so completely.

One thing missing that I was sorta hoping for was a scene to explain the 'Force/Mescalin' tree from Episode V (where Luke sees himself as Vader).

Alderaan looked like the planet Paramount. Seriously, the place they landed looked like it was surrounded by the Paramount corporate logo mountains.

I heard on the Radio that there was a scene that had a glimse of the millinium falcon in it but didn't see it in the movie. Were they just BSn? They may have been I only caught bits and pieces of the conversation.

No BS there. You can catch it landing in the scene where they get to the senate and Obi tells Annakin to stay and be the hero of the day.

I hate to tell ya..they as much as I love the SW saga..they all have poor dialouge and crappy acting....think about it..of the main 3 characters in the originals..only Harrison Ford made it big. That gotta tell ya something.

Ep 3 was awesome...don't know why everyone is so critical of these films..maybe their expectations are too high? I don't know why..1 and 2 kinda fell behind but 3 redeemed them I think.

i see more coming ( 7, 8 , 9 type deal) but i have no idea what story he would make. imho, people are into it like a cult. Lucas knows he can make milllions and millions by maken more of these movies.

Isn't Lucas quiting his film studio?

RightF00T · « **Reply #27 on:** May 21, 2005, 10:45:34 PM »

Lucas said he would not do 7,8, and 9 because of all of the books written that take place after the movies. I can't see him giving up all the money they would make though. Who knows.

ASTAC · « **Reply #28 on:** May 21, 2005, 11:14:57 PM »

There will be a TV series that takes place between 3 and 4..and some kind of animated series..from what I've read on the intardnet

RTSigma · « **Reply #29 on:** May 22, 2005, 01:00:06 PM »

I loved the movie and after 6 years from Ep I, I feel somewhat sad that the movie adventure is over.

Lucas said that the series between 3 and 4 will be about 100 shows with live actors.
