[QUOTE="Vocenoctum, post: 2268971, member: 2477"] I guess I'm one of the few that found very little to redeem this movie. R2 with the oil slick? I guess one of the biggest things for me with this movie is the total lack of suspense. I mean, the things that are designed as tense moments... Yoda lives, Obi-Wan lives, Palp and Vader live... these things we know. Vader's quest to bring peace and save Padme? Maybe with a better actor, I'd care. Vader killing the children? The fact the Jedi are all killed by Clone Troopers, it just lacked. I thought Grievous and/or Vader were Jedi Hunters, but whatever. It looked to me like Palpatine was CGI'd for the lightsaber duels, and all the lightsaber duels looked blurred and rushed. Nothing like the original trilogy's, let alone Maul's fight. Space battles were horrible, they weren't exciting enough to not notice the Physics Engine was broken. The little cutter droids were just lame. Grievous' rasping breathing... then he escapes into space? Does he breath or not? Yoda going to fight Palp, ugh. Vader balancing on the little droid to fight over the lava. I guess that little droid has a "Jedi Battle" subroutine that directs him to keep close to the opponent when being ridden by a Jedi. Sure that doesn't explain Obi-Wan's control of the platform, but I guess both are just chalked up to the Force. I also thought Padme looked bad in this movie. Her face was flushed, the makeup looked more clown like than her Ep 1 stuff. She was pregnant, sure. Even after having the kids and dying, she was still quite swollen. It would have been fun to have folks spreading rumors about how Padme got knocked up. Everyone knew she was pregnant, but no one knew of the marriage? Yeah, anyway. I enjoyed Yoda knocking the two guards out, but otherwise only the lone Jedi from the academy gave even a bit of thrill. Frankly, I can't understand what people liked. The pacing was bad, the CGI was mediocre, except the Lizard, which was abysmal and insulting. The acting was bad, the plot predestined, no tension, only revulsion. [/QUOTE]
