The Shrine

That's about all my gripes with the film.

Maddox sums it up pretty well too.

Both sum up the problems rather nicely.

Maddox wrote:"I'm able to detect subtle emotional changes in someone's personality like fear, but I was somehow able to detect a conspiracy involving 200,000 STORM TROOPERS AND EVERYONE IN THE ENTIRE FUCKING REPUBLIC."

Agent 57 wrote:It's "obvious"...that a series of films in which a race of beings who can supposedly sense everything from someone's mere presence in a moon-sized space station to most emotions that people are feeling, could not have detected the strength of the Dark Side in their government's Supreme Chancellor...have a "better plot"??

Maddox wrote:"Hello, I'm Senator Palpatine. I'm a Sith Lord. My race is known for lying and deception. Could I interest you in a dubious solution to all your problems?"

"Sure! Even though I have no reason to believe you, I'm compelled to deny a lifetime of hard work, training, and benevolence in exchange for a vague promise about a cure for a potential ailment my wife may have based on a premonition from a 20 second dream sequence."

Agent 57 wrote:That, to me, seems much more plausible than having Anakin being trained by the Jedi since he was 9 years old and suddenly changing his entire outlook towards them in a matter of weeks, or days, or however long it took.

*ahem*

Heh, I know I said I would say nothing more on the movies, but I didn't antisipate Maddox writing something so funny =)

Anyways, I agree with him, the third movie isn't any better than the first two in my opinion. My favourite scenes of the series are probably these:

1) Dath Maul vs. Obi Wan and Quai-gon
2) The Emperor caught and the battle that happened afterwards
3) Count Dooku vs Yoda, Anakin, and Obi-wan (episode 2)

And overall I still think without a shadow of a doubt that the new series is much better overall than the old one. Quite especially just after re-watching the entire old series back to back against Episodes 1, 2, and 3; I do not think that any of the three come close.

Quoting yourself, A57?

Yeah...I was simply pointing out that what Maddox wrote, which "summed it up pretty well," was essentially the same as what I had been saying.

Hence the "ahem".

Agent said something?! OMG WHEN? ;p
