Revenge of the Sith a "Blood Bath"
An anonymous reader writes "The BBC is reporting that the Revenge of the Sith is a blood bath and is to recieve a PG-13. One notable point from the article is Lucas is quoted as saying "But I have to tell a story. I'm not making these, oddly enough, to be giant, successful blockbusters. I'm making them because I'm telling a story, and I have to tell the story I intended." As he lit a cigar with a large stack of burning 20's."
Yuh-hunh. Sin City and Kill Bill Volume 1 move over, this one's a blood bath. OOOOooooo....
That's the problem with them damn Brits, they don't realize it's boobies in movies that's the real corrupting influence, not a little innocent killing and maiming.

...would love to see Jar Jar Binks' death scene.
Circumcision is child abuse.
I love it when a good plan comes together.
Unfortunately it won't stop parents from bringing their five year screaming, whining kids to the theaters so they can throw popcorn around and kick our seat backs. Of course if the movie's as ultraviolent as everyone's making it out to be, they'll just add to the illusion of debris flying through the air and the solid punch of the subwoofer.

Spoiler Alert: Jar Jar drowns during the MonCal Water Spectacular gurgling "OH NOES! ITSA BEESA TRAP!", while a young Ensign Ackbar holds up a sign reading "9.8".
"Problem Child 2"? I'd say the theater did you a favor no matter what you age was.
"So why'd you leave Tatooine? Was it the desert?"
"No."
"The criminal element?"
"No."
"The poverty?"
"No."
"The slavery?"
"No."
"Well what was it?"
"Some jackass threw Jar Jar Binks into a pit of man-eating Sarlacc. He's been screaming 'Meesa needs help! Meesa ouchies! Help meesa!' for the last 300 years. Only 700 more to go."
Queen Amidala: Oh no! some invisible force has removed my clothing!! I must put on some clothing.
Degenerate Jedi: You don't need to put any clothes on (waves hand in front of face).
Queen Amidala: I don't need to put on any clothes...
Degenerate Jedi: Yeah know, they say once you go darkside you never go back.

You get the idea.

George Lucas does not use cash to light his cigars. And I really wish people would stop characterizing him as such.
He uses the $20 bills as toilet paper (due to their cottony softness). He uses orignial Shakespearean manuscripts to light his cigars.
In the future, please be more sensitive.

I did a quick search, and sadly can't find the part where Jar Jar get's decapitated. Can you help me find this? I know it's in there. It has to be in there.
Don't know about anyone else, but my brother-in-law just spent 7 hours standing in line at the Star Wars convention to get a special Darth Vader action figure. He's 30, a married college grad in the Army and thus not exactly a kid.
Perhaps it has something to do with getting back from a tour of Afganistan. I think his wife hopes it was.

Or, as we used to say when we were kids:

PG = Pretty Good
R = Really Good
X = Xcellent
Young anakin is actually DARTH VADER!!!
Meh.
