9.5

Loved the movie!!!

Did people see this poster at their local Cinemas?

At the cinema I watched SW EP III, they had the long full version of this poster hung up across a massive wall and looking at it was just jaw dropping. I was so hyped for EP III.

9.8 out of 10.

This would have been the perfect movie if it weren't for two of Hayden Christiansen's faces.  Each of the forced me to deduct one tenth of a point.  I would say that this movie better than both prequels and even Return of the Jedi.  People that are rating this really low are just hating it because it's cool to hate the prquel trilogy.  It's much better than Avatar or any of that Matrix crap.


Well, at least you said it was better than the worst of the original trilogy.



8.8/10 (Twilight Princess!)

By an extremely long way, my favourite prequel.

Good:

The battle between Obi-Wan and Darth Vader on Mustafar. My favourite battle of the prequels.

The three-way showdown between Anakin, Windu and Sidious.

Something important actually happened!

General Grievous

Ewan McGregor as Obi-Wan...again.

Obi-Wan and Grievous' battle.

Fantastic CGI and special effects. By far the best in the series.

Yoda fighting Palpatine in the Council Chamber.

Order 66 was shown very well. 

It's actually reasonable to despise Anakin Skywalker now! (Do note that I don't despise the real Darth Vader)

They toned down the whole romance thing.

Very uplifting ending.

Bad

It's still not exactly A-class writing. Indeed, the writing leaves a lot to be desired.

Dying of a broken heart? Really?

Hayden Christensen actually managed to exceed himself by acting worse in this than in Attack of the Clones. Yoda, Obi-Wan, Grievous, Mace Windu and Darth Sidious made up for it...but, still.

Darth, are you doing an average score for each movie when this all finishes or somethin'? 

Don't worry, we're recording all of that. It will be revealed in the results thread, which will be posted after we've finished all of the movie threads.

4/10. Slightly better than the other prequels in the fact i can watch it without wanting to kill myself. But in all honesty it still isn't a patch on any of the originals.

HOLD ON!

I was thinkin' I want to up my score to a 7/10

I had fun watching it, even though all that crap stuff was crap

EDIT: Oh wait, i can't edit my score? 6/10 it stays then.

0/10 I fucking hate Anakin.



Revenge of th sith? Overall, the best of the second trilogy

Worst of second trilogy: Attack of the clones

Episode I was very good too. I love the battle against Darth Maul... So well delivered. Best light saber fight in the trilogy in my opinion

 

EDIT

SW I:  9/10

SWII: 8,5/10

SWIII: 9/10

SW IV 10/10

SW V: 10/10

SW VI: 9,5/10

 

Special effects are not what make movies good




6/10.

I loved many aspects of this movie, all of which have been covered in depth already. The opening, Yoda v Palpatine, Anakin v Obi-Wan (even though it was too long), Yoda's ultimate defeat and retreat into permanent exile, and whilst it wasn't handled as well as it could have been, Anakin's ultimate turn to the dark side with the slaughtering at the temple.

But, there's so much that was just bad, most of which plagued all three prequel movies. The worst being the handling of Anakin's transformation into Darth Vader. The 'Nooooo!' is worth losing a couple of points on it's own.

7/10

Pros:

"Battle of the Heroes" by John Williams
Maybe it was the music, but I really really enjoyed the Anakin vs Obi-Wan battle.
I liked it when General Grevious spun his lightsabers around...
Execute order 66 actually evoked some emotion. Finally!

Cons:

Wasted the excellent character of Count Dooku just to replace him with some hack-job android General.
Speaking of Grevious, I do remember how awesome he was in Clone Wars Khuutra. Such a disappointment.
The Anakin and Padme scene where they're on the balcony. Such. Awkward. Dialogue.
That annoying lizard thing and the noises it made.
Why do battle droids have personalities now? When did this happen?!
Calling children "younglings".


I agree with Smeags on almost everything once again.

"Battle of the Heroes" is freaking awesome.

Count Dooku is killed in the first 15 minutes. Seriously?

I don't remember anything about a lizard though.

I give it an 8/10. Lots of great moments, but writing and acting on the whole are still worse than the original trilogy. Mustafar sequence in particular is great. Didn't really have too many issues with Grievous.
