[nerd]and in scene 105 there was a rock building that wasnt in the other film[/nerd]
WHO GIVES A FUCK! I don't care about bullets in action films making massive holes in things when in reall life they would have just made pin holes so why should i care about stupid stuff that doesnt actually matter.
all that matters is that natalie portman wore near to FUCKALL in it. Geez some people have the wierdest priorities in films.

I saw it last night (in a digital ) and was a bit tired of the lame forshadowing of every fucking little thing. Like when Obi-Wan jokingly says "I have a feeling you will someday be the death of me". Throwing Boba-Fet in there and Luke's future step parents just kinda randomly because you know they are in the future films and George want to establish some kinda "history" with these bit characters who have no significance anyway. It was like the entire thing was scripted around the fact that George knows you have seen the other movies. If I show these movies to my kids one day in order they are not going to get half of the references. The act of writing a story that you already know the ending to could have been done a bit better IMO. Spend time taking us on a twisting turning plot ...not just explaining how the things in the future movies came to be. Portman was hot though ...I spanked one out for her.

Of course Lucas assumes you to have already seen Episodes 4, 5 and 6. That's the order they're intended to be in. And the movie doesn't intend to show that Anakin becomes Vader, because we all already know that. The point of the prequels is to show the one thing we never knew: why Anakin becomes Vader.
The actor has to be forgettable in a way that, though Hamill's name's been mostly forgotten, Luke Skywalker has not. They key to the success of the Vader character is that up until Episode 6, you're not supposed to see his humanity or even remember that he was once human. Anakin's already becoming mechanical mentally, hence his mechanical nature in the movie. And the romance with Padmé Amidala is supposed to be awkward, scary, and a little forced. Remember after all that Anakin is going to be Vader, and that Leia has told us her mother was "a very sad woman". All in all you've got a guy around 18 who's very much becoming a monster romancing a 24 year old former queen who knows more about formality than love. It wouldn't be right if it wasn't a little stiff.
Great flick.
And I still hafta meet Biped. Perhaps sometime I will drag on out that way and collect Anztac and Biped both.

1. i was dissapointed by the yoda scene. It didn't live up to the hype. (it was still pretty cool though.) 2. yoda did not 0wn Dooku. It was pretty much even. 3. the clone/droid battle was one of the best sceenes, but i like the Jedi's vs. driod battle better!

Just saw it yesterday (i prefer a nearly empty cinema to a nearly full one. Don't know why)
Quite liked it.. but that bit near the end when they were supposed to be being killed by those animals reminded me just a bit *too* much of gladiator...
and yoda did own.. dooku had to drop a pillar on him and run away..
