Revenge of the Sith TV Spots Revealed

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the not-as-good-as-the-first-one dept.

Bobert@flixnjoystix.com writes "StarWars.com has unveiled three TV spots for STAR WARS: EPISODE III: REVENGE OF THE SITH!" The three spots are shorter than the longer trailer that has been seen earlier, and a little bit more pop action than the dark trailer that gave me hope. Anyway, here is Spot 1, Spot 2, and Spot 3.

    So should we be calling Episode III: Revenge of the Sith, "A New Hope"? :)

      No, no. It's "A Last Hope..."

      A last hope for Star Wars redemption.

      A last hope before I throw my hands in the air crying, "Why George, why?"

    How about "What I like about you" or "I want candy" playing in the background like every other trailer. Can somebody please "mash" that up, post it, and then boing boing can blog about it.

    This comic throwaway line coming from Obi-Wan at the end of the first of these trailers caused a serious disturbance in The Force. I just hope he wasn't referring to his bowels.

    This will be out on DVD by Christmas (maximum sales impact).

    I will then purchase this as a used DVD from Hollywood Video (unless Walmart has it cheap).

    Going to pick up a case of beer, 3 bags of Doritos...sit down watch Episode I, II, III, IV, V, and VI...right in a row.

    Then I will promptly put all 6 in a shoebox, and bury them next to my cat, in the backyard, for some final fucking closure, that I would never have to see another Lucas Film again.
