just got back from star wars (ok we went out drinking afterward...)

man what a fucking tragedy the whole thing was. i mean, we all knew what was coming, we just didn't know exactly how it was going to happen.

1. acting was cheesey...but the dialogue Lucas wrote for it was pretty bad in many spots. i guess i can forgive it :/

2. they really did wrap up a lot of major plot lines (i think all of them) so good job there.

3. opening sequence was pretty good.

4. R2D2 continues to pwn all droids. 3P0 is still gay...(oooh shocker)

5. I still think "Rise of the Empire" might have been a better title.

[spoiler do not read if you haven't seen]

6. The emporer is fucking evil. in fact, it's now clear that everything that happened was by his design...making him an evil genius. imagine if hitler had actually won world war II and conquered the planet...that's the level of evil that the emporer is at. i mean... he killed his former master to achieve his power...and i forget but isn't that how Anikan was conceived? didn't "darth sidius'" master learn how to create life just from the force itself...hence Anikan was divinely conceived? so basically the emporer had Anikan created and plotted out over all those years to have him eventually become his apprentice? i mean....they created anikian to be the most powerful jedi ever and then turn him to the dark side. so that implies the emporer was using darth maul and count dooku as pawns on his long journey to power...eventually to have anikan kill dooku yada yada. my point is that the emporer is one evil fucking genius. at the end they show the structure of the death star which reminds us that all he cares about hsi power...absolute power. so it would seem that the moral of the 6 star wars movies could be that power currupts and must be used responsibility...or perhaps that the puruit of power will ultimately leave one empty and in fact powerless.

ok so not the most insightful analysis...but i'm sorta drunk and wanted to discuss.

Was quite good, some really fucking pantomime moments that detract a great deal - especially Vader's reaction at the end. Shame about most of the acting and the dialogue though, it really is terrible.

dead on.

What? Anakin was created by the sith?

Well, they didn't say that directly, but it is a possibility.

im sick of people saying that luke was the chosen one, not anakin. when in fact in ep6 he does destory the sith, so really he was.

I don't think of it that way.

My interpretation is that the prophecy was misread (as Yoda suggested) and the "balance of the force" was achieved in the end as there were only two Jedi and two Sith left.

the prophecy was 'destory the sith and bring balance to the force'

[GrayFox]

the prophecy was 'destory the sith and bring balance to the force'

ok

[Skjalg]

the prophecy was 'destory the sith and bring balance to the force'

ok

which is also what Anakin does, in ep 6 when he kills his master. (Yes, when Luke is pwned by a freak lightning strike)

Just saw it, good stuff. Met up with my expectations quite nicely, without a doubt the best of the new movies, but I'll just rest on it and see how i feel about it in a week
