Going to see Star Wars today...
kind of sad too...the epic that began when i was 4 years old, and with hundreds and hundreds of $'s spent by my parents on toys, lunchboxes, clothes etc...is ending for me today =<[br />
i'll post my thoughts tonight.

peace

5. so...it was damn good, the best of this trilogy thats for sure...
empire strikes back is till the best IMO, but this was good...and i think that lucas was able to transcend the genre by weaving in contemporary and universal themes of freedom, democracy, liberty, betrayal and revenge...the sith seeking to destroy the senate from within and the jedi as the guardians of the senate...hmmm...see the parallels?

i found myself talking aloud to anakin..."dont do it man" i must have said that 3-4 times.

i really like how he dropped little details in there...like the millenium falcon landing @ the city planet, in the screen for just a split sec and sen organa and his ship presaging the first scene in a new hope.

on technical level, the graphics and sound design were first rate, up there with the lords trilogy.

very impressed.
