| Star Wars Movie We saw the new Star Wars Movie yesterday. The graphic and background were awsome. The Costumes were good, set design was nice. The acting sucked. Yoda was ugly cute not like fasteddies Yoda who is just darn cute. The scenes with Yoda did make me laugh. The movie seemed longer than others. I am glad I went to see on a movie theatre size screen.

| Hahah, I still have yet to see BIG Yoda in the Episode III, though he did kick some major butt in Episode II! I'll tell Yoda your compliments, I'm sure he agrees, he doesn't much like big Yoda actually... |

| We actually went to the midnight showing on Wednesday! It was excellent. I rate it up there with A New Hope and Empire Strikes Back. Hayden Christenson and Natalie Portman sucked as actors, but I think Ewan McGregor made up for it with his superb portrayal of Obi Wan. I think it wrapped the entire Staw Wars saga beautifully together. The opening prologue sucked. I expected to hear the loud booming Star Wars theme as the words floated up the screen, but it wasn't loud enough. Try being with a theater full of Star Wars nerds screaming, "TURN IT UP! TURN IT UP!" It was a total mood killer. The guy I know who works at Skywalker Ranch for Lucas said when he saw the screening, the sound in the beginning sucked too. Overall, I will definitely love to see this in the theater again. It was really good, and I"m glad I missed a day of work for it! hehehhe.... |

| Even though I haven't met Fasteddies Yoda I like him better than the green puppet Yoda. I saw it friday and luckily my husband liked it and he is a SW fan, so that's all good. I thought there was too much fighting and you don't get involved enough in the characters. But then again I never really got to like the SW movies... I am happy it didn't dissapoint the fans since that would have been a major downer!

| I went to see Star Wars last night then went for a yummy pizza. I loved the bit where Yoda climbed up onto chewbacca's shoulder. When Obi wan was riding the dinasour I thought we had slipped into the Flinstones - YABBA DABBA DO TIME !! |

| I saw it at midnight on opening day and I liked it... I did find it strange that the Jedi's did not sense more danger then they did. I mean they got picked off so fast! But they did say in Episode II that they were loosing their touch with the force I guess... still I can sense more danger then them and I can be pretty clueless! I loved watching Darth Vader take his first breath... I hated when he threw his arms out and scream "Padme... Nooooo!!" That was cheesy… Overall though I liked it and now everything ties together.

| HEY, Mya's_Mom, you are invading my nerd space...I so started a Star Wars thread first! Haha! Just kidding...there is enough nerdom to go around. Ok, so I thought III had more funny parts...the other episodes always had so much corny humor (like in the arena scene when R2D2 is dragging C3PO's head and C3PO says, "What a drag"). Overall it was better than I & II. The special effects were awesome, acting and dialogue for the most part stunk. My favorite part in III is when Yoda walks in the room and Jedi slams the two guards at the door...hilarious Nothing (Fantasy/Sci-Fi) will ever beat LOTR (Lord of the Rings) IMO because not only are the special effects cool, the acting and dialogue just work really well! I'm so excited about King Kong (Peter Jackson's new project)...it comes out at Christmas this year!

| Well we saw it opening day. My hubby is a hugh SW fan, (so big in fact he works on the virtual cards for dechiphers SW game) we both enjoyed it. I actully thought Hayden Cristensen did a much better job in this movie than the last one. Padme did totally suck though, she was better before. I really enjoyed it, and I loved the yoda shrug that threw the guys against the wall!!I thought that it was cool to see him turn into vader although I just wanted it to turn out diffrent(even though I know it cant) and I agree him screaming for Padme was really stupid, he should have just sunk to the ground or something instead. I didnt read the book , but I was told it was a dissappointment by a few.

| We went and saw it last night. Both of us loved it! Although I don't like how Padame died, I always pictured her as a strong woman And it felt a bit rushed... Other than those 2 minor points, 2 thumbs up |

| it explains why she died more in the book........ she died because she no longer had the will to live, anakin was her pillar of strength and he was gone (not anakin anymore) the idea that he was gone and would no longer be there to care for her the babies or anybody was heartbreaking, and she died of a broken heart |
