    Episode 3

    Saw it at midnight with a couple other r3vers. It was definately the best of the new trilogy but still a dissapointment in comparison with the originals. I thought the ending was great (except where Vader screams "NO!") the way it transitions into A New Hope. What are your thoughts? Did you like it or not? What did you like or dislike about it?

    it was good enough. what i appreciated about it was that it was long but still pretty fast-paced all the way through.

    what i didn't like are a few continuity errors you notice when you've seen the "clone wars" cartoon series that's supposed to fit between ep2 and ep3. and it was maybe a bit mushy @ some points... "hold me like you did on naboo" :roll: i was thinking "ok, bitch is knocked up, they're in love, we get it"

      I saw it too. The funniest part maybe have been when Padme announced she was pregnant, and all the the nerds in the theater thought it was the funniest thing they'd ever heard.

          I honestly thought the WAY she said it was funny, actually.

          The only real gripe I have is all of the amazingly detailed gadets, droids, ships and everything are present throughout the entire movie, as with Episodes I and II, but then at the end of Episode III, cut to the bridge of the Star Destroyer with Plapatine and Darth Vader, and all of a sudden, it's 1977 again, with big giant switches and big blinking lights, sitting on the fronts of big walls that look like computer banks from UNIVAC. If his plan was to at the end of the film, return to the low-budget style of the orignal 3 films, why not do it throughout all of Episodes I, II and III? As I'm sure I'm agreed with by just about everyone, the overuse of CGI and a a budget that would make Bill Gates blush are what left me feeling cold toward the new films.

            i dont think the budget was the issue. these actors had no rapport. there was no chemistry. lucas created a great dialogue between hamill, fisher, and harrison ford. that was awesome in the first film. after that he stopped writing and that magic was lost. oh well.

              I'll agree with that, the writing and dialogue from the original 3 films is gone for sure. But I will say that Episode III is a MUCH better film than the first 2.

                  I just want to know what the continuity errors were between clonewars and ep3? I've seen all the clone wars cartoons and just saw ep3 and everything seemed to fit into place

                    The acting and producing in the 456 episodes were good?
                    HAHAHA- they're classics, that’s it.. a place to boast/show off some new Special effects.

                    Ever wonder why Harrison ford was the only person to really make it past the trilogy?
