3 times for me now. I still find it riveting, enthgralling, and profound! I'm so glad it rocks!

Well, I'd actually really like to see the lightsaber effects that went out of whack with the new color-timing job fixed. That includes the green tint of Luke's saber during the blast shield scene and the varying color of Vader's saber during the final battle on the DS2.
But I guess those fall under quality control issues more than artistic choices.
actually, the important cut scene with grevious is with him lighting a big stogie...this is the reason for his cough....but they filmed him smoking the whole thing and couldn't afford to waste 40 minutes on a side plot character smoking....it slowed down the pace of the movie.

I was worried that since I kept up with all the spoilers I was going to be let down but ROTS met and exceeded my expectations.
In 10 years, will I regret having a complete collection minus JarJar?
I think people will see the total lack of the Emperor in ANH as strange, given he's very prominent in Ep 1 to 3. I suspect that there will be some kind of Vader-Emperor scene in ANH edited in, also to explain why Bad-ass Vader suddenly plays second fiddle to Tarkin.
... also to explain why Bad-ass Vader suddenly plays second fiddle to Tarkin.
Admit, in ANH, Tarkin is the main Bad Guy, and Vader is his evil ruthless henchman.
That does not gell with Ep 1 to 3, and 5 + 6.
I like the themes of self-fullfilling prophecy in Star Wars...
As far as Anakin's conception is concerned, it could be that Plagueis was trying to create a perfect weapon for the Sith because of the prophecy of the Chosen One who would destroy the Sith. Darth Plagueis then unwittingly created that which he was trying to stop.
I finally got to see it again for the second time. Hell it was much better the second viewing. I don't know. Maybe it is better than ROTJ? Well I have ROTJ at #3.
Wow...there's definitely a trend of people who were all into spoilers not liking this film and those who tried to avoid them liking it.
I'm glad I resisted the temptation.
QuoteAnyone else have a similar experience?This is what Star Wars is all about. Not overpriced exclusive action figures or life size statues or the fifth variation of Anakin's Starfighter: the films, the stories, and the connections that we all have made because of them.
I believe there's a cut scene of Grievous executing Shaak Ti on the Invisible Hand. This scene at a minimum should have been left in to at least show Grievous doing something other than lose a fight. He's supposed to be this lethal jedi killer and all we did is see him run away from the first fight, then lose the second. That doesn't look too ferocious from where I'm standing. Hell, Lucas could have put me in, and I could have run like a girl from the first fight and lost a second.Ha! LOL! Good points. I too enjoyed Grievous a bit more in the cartoons, but he was still a cool character, and, as Darth Broem said, seeing the four lightsabers, and the amount of time that it took Obi-Wan to dispatch Grievous certainly helped to legitimize him in my book.
I don't mind 85% of the changes on the SEs and the DVDs, but I really wish the originals were available simply for historical, archival reasons.
