Perhaps Lucas-doubters (myself included) should give him some slack?

good stuff - i can't wait to see this film

Interesting, but I'm more inclined to believe the following:

"Revenge of the Sith is not the "masterpiece" some make it out to be. It is, simply, a far more worthy installment than we've recently been fed."

So, to sum it up, It ain't crap?

No real trustworthy reviews, unless you count the marginally trustworthy variety or newsweeek. If IGN gives it a splat, how could can it possibly be?

This is what I've been saying for years. I would just like to rub it in everyone's faces that I was right and you all were wrong. Lucas made the first two to be far too laid back and childish because ilt's called DYNAMICS. When you watch all six in a row, it will be much more apparent. It's like watching a season of 24. Some episodes are more laid back than others, but it's meant to be that way.

I imagine that Revenge of the Sith is very much the film Lucas's fans want to see, but are some of them ready for an anti-Bush diatribe? Though every Star Wars film until now has existed in an insular comic-book world, a lot has happened since 1999 and 2002 in the real world and Lucas dares, for the first time, to address how the hollow political conflict in his franchise correlates with the reality outside its panels. (It would have been stupid not to strike a parallel.) Revenge of the Sith's two greatest moments tap into the uncertainty of our own political climate: the dazzling battle between Yoda and Darth Sidious (an outstanding Ian McDiarmid) inside the beautifully spiraling Senate hall evokes Democrats and Republicans scrambling for power and, during an obscenely over-the-top duel in Mustafar, Obi-Wan (Ewan McGregor) declares, "Only a Sith Lord deals in absolutes," after Anakin says, "If you're not with me, you're my enemy." Lucas's political gestures would be easier to appreciate if he himself didn't trade in absolutes and generalities (you know the drill: the darker the couture, the closer you are to the dark side), but it's still a welcome step forward. Pity we had to wait so long for it, but, as they say, better late than never.

WTF??????????

Nevermind that guy. The whole "if you're not with me, you're against me" thing was first said, like, thousands of years ago and recorded in the Bible. He's just another brainless sheep bashing Bush without legitimate reason.

Yeah, absolutes are a BAD thing.....that's why there aren't light and dark sides to the force....there are many splendid colors of the force.

I almost posted the exact same quote. This guy is a fvcking tool, and I'm more Conservative than Democrat. An Anti-Bush diatribe? Get the fvck out of here with that bullsh1t! That's ridiculous.

It's not that far off from people who thought the hyenas in lion king and the trade syndicate people in Ep 1 were outrageous racist characters. If you want to see not-imagined anti-bush stuff, pay attention while watching american dad.
