I saw it midnight, but AUGH! My friend went to *the* Hollywood Premire. As in with Lando and Mark Hamil being there. Great movie, depressing though. It's done now.

Solra: anyone who hadn't figured that out by the end of the first movie (if they didnt know it BEFORE they went to see the first movie) should be shot for being a complete idiot and a detriment to the human race.

Sadly i do know a few people who that will come as a surprise to.

Okay, so here's what happens in Episode III: The Clone War ends, the Emperor dissolves the senate, Luke and Leia are born, Anaking fights Obiwan and becomes Darth Vader, Darth Vader (among others) go kill all the Jedi, Obiwan sends Leia to the Organas of Alderaan, Obiwan sends Luke to the Lars on Tattooine and follows them there to fulfill Luke's destiny.

So, basically, nothing new?

T'was alright.
A (large) bit too violent for a PG-13 movie. I suppose that's what they were trying to make up for with all that annoying droid humor, which happened to be the worst part of the movie.

Overall, pretty good. Equal to, or above, the original movies.

Very good, but still not comparable to Empire Strikes Back!

R2D2 kicked azzz in the first few minutes.

not comparable to Empire Strikes Back? Return of the Jedi was way better than Empire. It was almost as good as Return, but you never can beat the last large portion of the movie, starting with the attack on Endor. That was quite possibly the greatest scene in the history of movies.

Guys i know i would probably be flamed for this but IMO Lucas should REMAKE episode 4,5et 6 cause, I will buy the set of the 6 DvD ( I know it will be released) and danm the quality is so great for the 3first ones and sow low and pale for the others, really Lucas should do it, sorry for Mark hamil and Harisson, but danm we're in 2005! and thoses movies are from 1977 to 1983! danmit! I'd love if he did that !

BTW IMO episode 3 is the best of the whole series, I mean u got ALL the story in it its the best of all !

Prepare your rockets launcher ! i got my energy shield !

.... You do know, don't you GRAIG, Lucas has remade episodes 4, 5 & 6? Like, three or four times. And some of the changes he made in the remakes piss off me & many others of his fans. Han shoots first, @#$@ it!
May 28, 2005 Spellcast link
he didnt remake them beo, he re-edited them. theres a difference.

But yea, Leave 4 5 and 6 alone for crying out loud. all these damn kids are unable to appreciate quality storytelling... all they care about is special effects...

The movies are fine as they are, they dont need to be redone.

FLAME!
Jabba's "enhanced" barge looks like it was rendered on a bloody N64...
-:sigma.SB
May 30, 2005 jexkerome link
That'd be about right, Solra, I think the 64 came out around that time, didn't it?

Anyway, in the "definite" edition of the original SW:

Han Solo now shoots AT THE SAME TIME. This move, of course, fails to calm those of us who saw the original and just enrages us further instead. HAN SHOT GREEDO IN COLD BLOOD, DAMMIT!

The Ep4 Jabba scene now looks tons better. Jabba is now rendered in a N64 instead of an Atari 2600, so he looks a lot closer to himself in EpI.

Christian Whatsisname replaces the other whatsisname when he appears besides Yoda and ObiWan at the end of Jedi. In the most stupid move of all, he's still YOUNG. You'd have tought they'd use some cheap tech to age him a bit. Now the scene's just jarring.

Anyway, saw Ep3 the other day. It rocks, better than the other two, probably as good as Ep4, but in no way the best of the six, as some people have suggested in the 'Net.
