Star Wars!

Last night a bunch of us went to see the midnight showing of Star Wars : Episode III – Revenge of the Sith, and it was awesome! The movie is definitely the best of the prequels. I can’t really compare it to any of the original trilogy, since I saw those when I was a kid, and it was a completely different experience. But this latest movie really ties in with Episode IV so well, and explains a lot of things you might be wondering about, such as how Anakin became Darth Vader, what drove him to the dark side, and how the Emperor’s face got so messed up. Of course the special effects were the best of any movie to date, and the dialog and acting was much, much better than in the previous two prequels. There were actually only a couple parts that I found really cheesy, and they came right at the end. Yoda was fantastic again, as is Senator/Emperor Palpatine. I was surprised that I was really rooting for Obi-wan and Yoda in this movie, because in the original trilogy, I was rooting for Vader and the Empire. Anyways, I definitely give this one a thumbs up. I am planning on seeing it a couple more times in the theater in the coming weeks, it’s so good!
