Initial ROTS Reviews Hit the Internet

Posted by Zonk on from the i-sense-something-a-presence-i-haven't-felt-since dept.

Trunks writes "The first reviews of Episode III: Revenge of the Sith have started to trickle onto the Net. Reviews are posted at ComingSoon.net, Ain't It Cool News, Variety, and there are three separate reviews at TheForce.net. The current issue of Time magazine has a review as well. The reviews have all been positive so far, and the consensus appears to be that this is the best film of the prequels and it should satisfy fans who were unhappy with the first two."

    I'll still be unsatisfied with the first two.

      I agree, I think Lucas should remake the first two. ;P

      Don't worry. If history is any guide, he will.

      It is a scene directed by Mel Gibson called "The Passion of the Binks". You get to watch Jar-Jar get whipped for 30 minutes straight then nailed by his ears to the side of an Imperial Walker.

    I've been waiting for a "real" Star-Wars for years....let's hope this one works.

    Bonus poiints if there is a scene where Anakin kills Jar-Jar.

      A Star Wars movie that isn't a blatant financial success? Where have you been the last 20 years?

      Sir, we've analyzed the bittorrent scene and there is a danger, we have your legal team standing by?

      - Litigate? In our moment of triumph? I think you overestimate their chances!

    I will see RotS:
    • Been there, done that.
    • First showing.
    • First day.
    • First week.
    • First month.
    • Never.
    • I'll watch it at CowboyNeal's when he gets the DVD.

    Even Spielberg chimed in, while making a plug for his travesty of War of the Worlds.

    No... Nothing can take the pain away...

  6. Dark matter and lightsabers by Cirrocco · · Score: 5, Funny

    This is what I've been waiting for...two solid hours of lightsaber duels!

    Because, let's face it, SW is really all about the lightsabers. You know you want one, and so do I.

  7. But by SimianOverlord · · Score: 5, Funny

    Is it true that Annakin Skywalker dies at the end? Someone told me this and it's just ruined the movie for me.
