    I'm soooo mad.........not only after looking forward to this movie for the longest...

    1st...got to the theater very early at 10pm which had 2 lines....one for regular ticket holders and one for party goers, which i was a party goer....this meant we got to go in at 11pm...they free popcorn and drinks, doughnuts, cookies, Raising Cane's, and some kind of fruit smoothie...all FREE....so that was good...

    2nd got into the individual lil rooms which up until 11:45 various people took turns playing the X-box on the huge movie screens which was kinda cool too...

    ENTERS BAD LUCK

    After the previews and stuff came the best musical compistion that all Star Wars fans love....everybody started going crazy including me.....got about 10 mins into the movie...exactly at the part (SPOILER ALERT) when Obi tells R2-D2 to hit the lil droid in the eye...ok so most thought it was part of the movie at first..but at the exact moment that R2 shot the droid...the damn screen went black....lights came on....big uproar from crowd.....ok so a little glitch..they can fix it..Soooo after 15-20mins...we're back in business again...or so we thought....not only did they not start from the point we stopped...but after the movie had been on a few more mins...we all noticed the first oh s**t signs...voices being blurred, movie skipping.....then came the final tell tell sign that I wasnt gonna watch Star Wars last night......the movie film or whatever started melting...you know the big burn away scorch mark on the screen......then all hell broke lose....some little kids started crying....big kids like me started cursing.....but needless to say i didnt get to see the movie...got my money back of course...and came str8 home and bought tickets for another theater for tonight...i just pray they're screens or movies is playing right....so until then...no reviews from me except to say....the first 7-8 mins of the movie that i was able to see was awesome....

    I'm heading to it on Friday night. I can't wait!! Maybe back in my younger days I would have done the full Sith dress code. Now, I think I'll just go enjoy watching mass destruction, and Padme's hot little ass.

    Leia actually said she just had "feelings" not real memories. If she had an affinity with the Force, even as an newborn, she would have "felt" her mothers presence.

    Kinda like the Paul Atreides' kids in Dune Messiah, fully aware and cognizant even as newborns.

    Episode 3: Darth Vader and the twins are born

    That's the whole movie.

    I'm just not into SW.

    Just saw it.

    Oh yeah. It was Star-Wars-lishious! Thank Goodness George Lucas got it back together after those other two terrible movies and gave us what we wanted!! STAR WARS.

    Great, great, great.

    Did I mention I enjoyed it?

    Just got back from it not to long ago. Had to say I thought it ruled. Go evil Sith Lords.

    Oh I can't imagine how bad that sucked, Sweetp...I hope you all got all your money returned for that fiasco!

    The other thing that bugged me was how weak Padme was made to be in this movie. I understand that she's pregnant and can't be as active and fighting as she was in the last two pics, but other than the fact that she was with child, there hardly was any involvement with her in the plot at all. (Other than the cursory "romantic" scenes early on, which drew racuous laughter from the audience -- I guess we all felt it played pretty phony, and the later more genuine scenes with her and Anakin on Mustafar). But for her to just die like that from a broken heart, I just didn't see her as so weak like that. Am I the only one to think that?

    I nearly always wait for video release but, I knew I wanted to see ep.3 as it was meant to be seen. Lucas made good on this one. The dialogue was much better than in the last two but still not as natural as on the original trilogy.

    I agree with you Leo, I didn't like how Padme died. I know they were limited by the fact she was to die during childbirth, and it avoided the quandary of how would that happen when they had access to such advanced medical technology....I think she could have been injured by Ani (ooooh the guilt)...had to give birth prematurely without technological aid, the complications eventually mean bye bye.

    I can understand how she was immobilized by her torn emotions in the rest of the flick, not wanting to move against Ani and maybe even refusing to act on it hoping it was a phase he'd get over. I think Natalie did a great job of the little bit given to her overall...and I'm not saying that just because she's a zillion times hotter than Carrie Fisher.(Although I liked Leia's "attitude" more)
