Star Wars! (SPOILER WARNING) (2 Viewers)

[xeuyrawp]

is it just me or was there mass clapping and laughter in your theatre?
and did you have weird fanatics dressed up? i sat next to a guy in darth vader costume who looked 100% the part. he didnt take the helmet off to watch the movie!

i did appreciate at the end how the star destroyer looked like it did inside in new hope. that was a good touch even though the technology looked shithouse

I laughed too much... But I HATE people who clap, it shits me. ALl these people stood up at the end and applauded, so stupid.

 

[Atticus.]

because i was drunk i felt it would be a good idea to get up and yell "shut up you idiots! George Lucas cant hear you!"

and so i did and darth vader glared at me

 

[Led-Zep]

Attacus Finch, did u go to the gong premier at greater union, in town. if u did then i know about the darth vader guy ur talkin about!
but onto the movie, it was good, i still think anakin needed to be more powerful than he was portrayed i mean really, he is the chosen one, do something new! fuck come on..and i wouldve liked a bit more of vader-palp convo. but the whole order 66 bit was heaps emotional, i felt heaps bad for the jedi..so sad..even though anakin is my hero, tough prick that man killin those jedi younglings...
well anyway off to line up for Star Wars 3.5:A New way to screw people out of money..coming soon

Gargh, it's obvious what's gonna happen, and you know whats gonna happen, yet in some parts of the movie (such as Anakin's decision with Mace Windu/Palpatine), I still was thinking to myself "don't do it man..!!" Yeah it's pretty sad what happens to anakin and the jedi, and I did feel it, even though we all know what happens eventually.

Yeah, I thought that part of it was particularly well done as well.

I saw it at Greater Union Wollongong. If you heard a lot of hysterical laughter when the camera focused on Sidious's face just after it got fried, that was me. I just couldn't take it seriously!

Yeah, I hated the makeup. His head looked like a shiny butt.

 

[flipsyde]

heh I lovd it... except i wish anakin had of.. well when he turned to the dark side... I wish its was more... dramatic isnt the word, but u know what I mean... I reakon he should have resisted more.

Still loved it though... I stole a poster.. it was almost 3 in the mornign lol so noone saw me

I was considering taking one, too, but I was being watched. But yes, I also didn't like how Palpa just came out and said "I know the ways of the dark side" right away... He shoulda done it in a more subtle way.

 

[flipsyde]

and also how just suddenly after ani's like "what have I done?" then "I am yours I will do what you ask of me" or somethign like that.. and he kneels to him. It would have been better if he was like nooo and ran off and was tempted more and yeah...what ^^^^ they said... And Go Yoda!.. Man he was awesome... nto that hes not normally awesome but he was even more awesome in this one lol.

 

[Led-Zep]

yea that transition was way to fast..anakin shouldve at least went beserk on a killing spree, or they shouldve had padme die earlier for ani to hear about it and then go insane and pledge his alliegence to the emperor, i rekon wouldve been better, cause like u said, flipsyde, it was way to fast from "oh no what have i done" to "i am yours...etc". well its lucas's universe and story so i guess he can do whatever he likes, at least this film owned the previous 2. nice and dark film wif some funny as shit too. best light sabre battles, and oh how bout the opening scene, wow!

 

[Benny_]

No, that would've been retarded. Anakin's transformation into Vader was very well handled because he struggled against his darker instincts right down to the end.

 

[waterfowl]

Anakin's transformation was done very well.

Having Padme die at the end, and Vader being all torn makes it more tragic - he journied to the dark side to save her, but ended up killing her instead; he was manipulated by Palpatine and this is what makes you still able to feel sorry for him.

 

[Led-Zep]

yea thats true, still Darth vader:"nooooo!" haha great comedy there!

I don't think it was done well, probably made worse by Palpatine's seduction of him. The protagonist doing a bad thing for his lover/family but instead killing them is the classic tragedy; I was hoping for something else, and I think they could have done much for for it.

 

[transcendent]

I thought it was beautiful. Absolutely LOVED it!

 

[Led-Zep]

is anyone else gonna see it again this weekend, i know i am...

 

[funniboi]

Yeh, halfprice Tuesday rocks- I finish uni early, so I go have lunch and a movie for less than $10

The acting was still far too stiff, and it's saying quite a bit to note that Empire and Jedi (the best of the lot) were lucky enough to not have Lucas directing. It wasn't bad, but it was hardly great. There was no real need to Lucas to go overboard with the special effects, too, but you cannot stop a boy from playing with his favourite toy, after all.

Edit: I thought that the final scene (binary sunset on Tatooine) was a nice touch.
