A detailed and vague account of my escapist adventures, my treatise's on the world, social commentary, and homage to ninjas, dragons, and ninjas with dragon heads.

The force is strong with this one.

Episode III rocked. I stand by that I should get final approval on all Lucas films, because their are inevitably 'lucas-lines' that instantaneously you are kind of knocked out of the movie from a giant gob of cheese, and realize how 3 words rearranged would have made that a great line, but luckily no one talks much. :) Infact, there is only a small set of scenes where there isn't a lightsabre blazing. And yes, Jar jar does not talk. But he does live. :( (he's actually not really in the movie at all) By far the best of the prequels, everyone should go watch it.

Seeking the path of a jedi,

*SPOILERS*
I agree that II had a better over all plot, and that episode III seriously skipped the plotage. Not that it was black and white, but dark gray and light gray. The great mysteries of star wars: the destruction of the republic, the turning of anakin, the origins of the rebellion, etc... all these things were there but barely addressed. Anakins loss of faith scene eclipsed no more than 5 minutes of the whole bloody movie. (way shorter than say windu's and the chancellors fight immediately before) Now for a regular movie, I'd say that fucking blows because I hate movies that just lightly touch on important plot in favor of action scenes. But it's lucas. Because he sucks ass at any quality dialog writing, the fact that episode II delved more into story and issues made it a worse movie for me.
