Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith, Was it any good?

Yes. YES. YES.
So much better then I expected. II was crap but this, this is something to compare to IV. The story was perfectly set in between the two. Made a pretty smooth transition to IV. The special effects was so good and so much better then ANY of the other movies. Yoda is back to kick some serious butt and his computer animated self is so nicely done he looks real. The music was the same. (What do you expect?) Ewan McGregor's and Hayden Christensen's acting is so good, Christensen's is probably one of the best I've ever seen. Yes the Wookies were awsome and yes it is a lot darker then the other movies. (Anakin kills 5 year old Jedi! ;_;)

This is not one to pass up.

10/10

ima see it soonish... i am excited to hear its a lot better then 1 & 2

I liked the other two, but I friggen LOVED this one.

They made Yoda INCREDIBLY likable. Even more so than normal. And I think some of it was to play up to the crowd that just wanted to see him kick ass :P

My only real complaint abou the movie, was that there was NOT NEARLY enough of General Grievous. He was too badass for words.

Grevious was just made so he could kidnap Chancellor Palpatine (protected by Jedis so he had to be made very well and trained to the max)because Palpatine had to find a way to get out of the Senate without being suspicious* so there was really no point in him.

But he is indeed one of the best characters ever created in Star Wars.


*I havent seen Episode 3, just the cartoon so I might be wrong but i dont think so :o

Some kid at school was telling me about how some kid was trying to spoil it for him and told him "yoda dies" which is pretty hilarious considering this kid's probrably never seen episodes 4 5 and 6

Spoilers:

he dies in 6 and he's a ghost at the end DUH

Spoilers:Palpatine and Sidious are the same person :P

I loved it, and I agree completly with you Mario Gamer. I hated him killing the 5 year olds. ;_____________________________;

The whole Yoda-fighting-with-a-lightsaber thing bothers me, for logical reasons.

1. Yoda is about 900 years old in Episodes 5 & 6
2. Yoda can barely even walk in those movies
3. In Episode 3, Yoda is about 40 years younger
4. Using a simple algebraic ratio, that's the equivalent of a 70-year-old guy being 3 years younger
5. Yoda is somehow tons more fit in Episode 3 than in Episodes 5 & 6

Yes, I'm being nitpicky, but part of it is I like finding flaws in movies and such. Note that I haven't seen the movie itself, so I'm not saying the movie is bad. It's just that, like the other two new movies (and, to be fair, sort of like the old movies), this one has its holes. :P

After all the acrobatic crap Yoda pulls off in the last two prequels, no WONDER he can barely walk in the original trilogy.

XD

I believe Yoda just finally crosses over to old age like most people do.

Episode 3 was like 40 years in the past of episode 6 because

Spoilers:

remember in episode 6, vaders mask off, anakin is very old? well he's a lot younger in episode 3 so there's a time gap, obviously. Although this does not make up for Yoda's agility nor have I seen episode 3 yet.. Perhaps Yoda pulled some muscles =P

It's now time for the spoiler thing. Spoilers:

This was a great movie, much better then the other 2. I wish the Jedi would have put up more of a fight when Palpatine attacked them, at least Kit Fitso lasted a little longer. Mace Windu should have finished the job, just hack off the old dudes head and he would still have his hand and not be flung out a window..... He was my favorite Jedi too. Now it's time for stupid things I noticed, Plo Koon still had a Episode 2 starfighter while the other Jedi’s had Episode 3 ships, Grevious coughed so much because Mace Windu crushed his chest in the last episode of the cartoon, the jedi that attacked the Clone Troopers when Bail landed was Lucas’s son, the Banker's Clan surrendered in the cartoon but one of them was still with the Separatist, and Shack Ti's death seen was filmed three times and was in the Lego game but it was cut from the movie. I liked how Owen was wearing the same outfit Luke had in 4 and was standing in the same pose. I think Yoda can only move like that when he has his lighsaber and he loses it when he fights Palpatine. That part with the younglings really bothered me.

Great movie.

This movie was so awesome. The only problem I had with it was that the Jedi, Count Dooku, and General Grevious died too quickly. =/

Btw- George Lucas was supposed to be in the movie. He's one of the guards or something. I mean...I didn't see him, though. But then again, you're only supposed to see his beard or something. You don't see his face.

Spoiler tags please. :o

No he was just in a crowd of people.

Oh DAMN. I forgot to look for him! But he IS in there.

The movie was awesome. The fight with General Grievous ruled.

Spoilers:

The fight with Sidius probably aged Yoda even quicker for the original trilogy. I mean, he did fall and hit the ground pretty hard and seemed pretty weak when trying to escape.

I'm a huge fan of star wars, but I hated this episode: the story was bull****, the screenplay was bull****, the special effects were very confusing, the duel were to quick, the love story is pathetic and even darth vader is ridiculous. I give this crap a 1/10. So bad that Lucas spoiled he's trilogy by making the 3 new episodes >:(

I thought the story was much easier to understand then some of the other movies.
Special effects are supposed to be confusing during a mass fight scene.
The last duel was over 20 mins!
