Can anyone tell me what happened in the first 30 minutes or so? My wife and I went to see it last night and were told the wrong theatre. That means we ended up walking in about 15 minutes before the end. We were 10 minutes late, so we figured we'd just misse a bit, until the credits rolled...

We found the right theatre, but we missed the first 20 minutes, came in just as the

chick / changeling was fleeing from Obiwan and Annakin.

The good part is that we got to see Yoda fight twice.

Also, was anyone else as diappointed as me? Where did Lucas find the actor for Annakin? He couldn't convince me he was human, much less that he was in love. Of course, the lines for the character made him out to be a drama-addict, so maybe it isn't the actor's fault.

I also was very disappointed with the actor playing Anakin. He's too whiny. The only time I liked him, and believed his character had any depth was when he was telling Padme about his attack on the Sand People camp. After seeing that, I thought the character was going to start developing more depth. But he just went back to being whiny. How could Padme fall in love with such a jerk?
 

I agree the acting by the Anakin character was terrible,and the lines he was given were not great either.

The other characters were simple characters and didn't require great acting but the anakin character is very complicated and the actor did not have the skill to pull it off he came of as whiny and you just couldn't see what a intelligent together girl like Padme saw in him.I think he was poorly cast but there's nothing we can do now.

Girls always fall in love with jerks. Story of my life :( ; Anakin is every guy I ever hated in highschool. I can't wait to see him get his a** whupped by Obi-Wan! ;)
 

The ploblem with the movie, is not the actors or the script it's thebad director. Lucas wasn't the director for the ESB and ROJ.
