Looks like crap.

More powerfull? To the best of my knowledge, the only thing the PS3 has over the XBox 360 is a more powerfull graphics card...and that's it. The XBox 360 beats the PS3 in all the other aspects... Where exactly are you getting this from? Every article I've read on the next-gen consoles says exactly the opposite. Microsoft is pulling a Sega here; coming out first, and ending up with the least powerful machine.

Oh God! Make it stop! He called me a fan boy again! I'm devastated! You've got nothing. I've gotten you to type more words against me than I have typed period over the last 3 weeks on MW. All too easy. -
Anakin wasn't in control of himself. Once the Dark Side takes over, it controls you. You do its will.

Actually, no, I went to the 10:15 showing with a friend of mine, and I didn't wait in line. I was wearing khaki jeans and a pull over. Oh, and my Yankees hat. Is that ok with you, fan boy? -

It has always been my opinion that Guld did not rape Myung. I've stated it on here. And you are still a loser fan boy. -

You are in more dire need of a blowjob than any fan boy in history. -

Oh, we're calling people "morons" now for disliking Lucas's vision for the last three movies. Thanks. I missed that memo. As for you being "insulted" by his use of the word rape. . . it may be lame. . . but "insulting?" Lighten up, dude. H Lighten up? I have had people very close to me who have been raped, and I see nothing "light" about their pain. Just because some loser fan boy feels that his entire childhood was ruined because Greedo shoots first doesn't make it ok. -
No one has mentioned this, so I will... the lightsaber Luke uses for Episodes IV and V was used to kill countless Jedi, including children.

Actually, it means eliminating the old Jedi Order as well. The Jedi were also throwing the Force out of balance. Qui Gon's path and teachings about "the living Force" is what the true nature of the Force is. This gray area, neither good or evil, is where the true balance lies. Once the Emperor and Vader are dead, there are no Sith or Jedi left, leaving the Force in a state of balance. Luke is a disciple of Qui Gon's teachings, and thus brings about a new Order to the Force.

You are a moron. Not only that, but your use of the word rape is insulting. -
I completely agree on the birth of the Rebellion. This will most likely be one of those DVD deleted scenes, as we know the parts were atleast cast for this, and I assumed filmed. I think we just have to assume that Count Dooku was posing as Syfo Dyias, if not Sidious himself (Syfo Dyias - SyDyias).

haven't read the book yet, but does it say why Yoda acknowledges Qui-Gon as Yoda's master? I thought Yoda trained Dooku who trained Qui-Gon? I think in Ep. 2, Dooku said Qui-Gon was his padawan.... ok, gotta go buy the book today now. He didn't explain it well. I haven't read th ebook, but what he means is that Qui Gon has evolved to this higher state, and now he is the Master, and Yoda the student.
-
Actually, that's not the balance. Balance isn't brought to the Force until Vader throws the Emperor down the shaft, and then dies. When this happens, there are no Sith left, and the old Jedi Order is no more. There is balance because both extremes have been wiped out. Luke is a new begining, but without the trappings of the past. In many ways, he is the heir to the teachings of Qui Gon, a disciple of the "living Force".

But the Jedi had been fighting at their side for a few years now. They had a comradery going, and I think even friendships. That's what makes the betrayal so shocking. You litterally have a clone trooper handing Obiwan his light saber (a clone Obiwan was on a first name basis with), then a few seconds later, trying to kill him. Commander Cody was indeed a friend of Kenobi's, which I believe earlier scripts may have played up much more than than the final film (from what I heard several months ago). Now that I think about it, we were never given any story as to why Obi Wan ended up being called "Ben". Nice Episode IV connections with him, with Bail Organa sending Leia to him, knowing what we know now. There's alot in the OT that really has more meaning than it did before. And I always knew R2 knew what was going on! I was VERY happy to see his memory was not wiped, it fit into what I always believed after Episode I. And without knowing it at the time, Alec Guiness comes off now as if he knew everything all along. Really sly.

Ok, have to respond here... Clone Troopers The Jedi are not immortal. They are not all powerful. Turning your back on an ally who is really your enemy is an easy way to get killed. Plus, the Clone Troopers are not Storm Troopers, they are far more advanced, and far more skilled. The Emperor He knew his life wasn't in danger. He's a Sith Lord. Plus, um, its quite clear Anakin knew he was evil, its not like Palpatine was leading him on the whole time. He was pretty upfront about it. Anakin/Vader I wouldn't say he has evil in his heart. The Jedi control the Force, while the Sith are controlled by it. One he started down the dark path, it took control of him, and it twisted him beyond a point of no return. He did turn Palpatine in to the Council, he was trying to do the right thing. Yoda vs The Emperor Yoda most likely thought he could handle it himself (which he probably could have), and Anakin was far too powerful and dangerous to let him be. The Security Tapes There is nothing damning in the record. He actually tells Anakin to go restore peace to the galaxy in it. He also declares the Jedi traitors infront of the Senate, and claims they tried to overthrow the Republic. Jedi or Sith The Sith care about power, pure and simple. That is, unless you bought into the Emperor's twisted lies, which is sounds you migth have. Have you turned with Anakin? And as I said before, once Anakin went to the Dark Side, it was too late. It had control of him, and he was powerless against it. Padme Portman mailed in her performance, and nearly ruined two scenes. BTW, Tarkin wasn't CGI.

Am I sick then, or am I the only one who was awaiting the rise of the Empire? Time to clean house and purge the galaxy of your enemies. You are sick. -
Interesting, a torrent of the workprint of Sith is out on the net. Not some taped off the screen junk, but Lucasfilm copy. I'm not touching it, sounds like instant lawsuit to me, but still, its out there, and being downloaded in HUGE numbers (I've never seen that many download before for a torrent).

Oh, The Duke's kick ass moment of the entire film: The Jedi Kid taking on a squad of Clone Troopers by himself infront of Bail Organa at the Jedi Temple, and kicking much ass. Maybe the only time during the entire film where everyone cheers. God, this was a depressing movie, wasn't it...
-
In the screenplay, Yoda mentions this about Jedi ghosts and Qui Gon: "The secret of the Ancient Order of the Whills, he studied." Don't see why this wasn't left in, either. It doesn't seem so much like an after though that way. How to join the Force, he will train you. Your consciousness you will retain, when one with the Force. Even your physical self, perhaps. Even your physical self, perhaps... sounds alot like what Sidious was telling Anakin about Darth Plagus, cheating death. People are asking now, how does Anakin learn this power? Your answer is in the screenplay.
-
I just went through the script, he doesn't make an appearance in it, either.

I'll say it again, where the hell was Qui Gon Jinn? That would have been a BIG moment in the film, even at its end... all I can figure out is that they couldn't get Liam Neeson to do it. A must have moment that they dropped the ball on. You know, they say "Kashyyyk" in Knights of the Old Republic, and they say it there as I always have, "Ka-shick". In RoTS, they pronounce it "Ka-shiek", which I don't like as much. I don't even know if Samuel L said it correctly.
-
Yes, so shut up.
-
Luke asks Leai if she remembers her real mother in ROTJ, I believe they were referring to Padme' Does he say "real mother"? I don't remember that. As far as I know, Leia would have no reason to believe Organa wasn't her real mother.

You'll love it, Keith. It almost went by too fast. It seemed much shorter than its running time, the movie just never slows down.
