[QUOTE]Originally posted by PsyLiam: [QB] The film seemed determined to shoot itself in the foot at times. That scene where Anakin walks in on the kids and ignited his lightsabre had me going "oh fuck, no..." But then they ruin it by using "younglings" later on. If you're going to kill kids, say so. Don't make up a silly word to semi-diguise it or whatever the point was. The dialogue was often a big cringeworthy, but "so this is how liberty ends...to thunderous applause" was a really good line. Ickle Haydn was much better this time around. Possibly because he had to do less lovey stuff, and possibly because he had evil red contact lenses. But I was much more into his character. Likewise Obi-Wan at the end did a good job of showing his dispair at being forced into battle with someone he used to call a friend. Surely everyone who hasn't seen "The Clone Wars" will be confused as to why Grevious is coughing. (And on that, isn't that another example of Windu sailing a little too close to the Dark Side. He does do a variation on a Force Choke on Grevious, after all.) Half my friends liked the "nooo", half hated it. I was just glad he didn't drop to his knees and raise his fist at the ceiling, screaming "why god, why!?" The opera-type scene between Palpatine and Anakin was great. Palpatine's dialogue where he talks of the Sith lord who had found the secret of creating life and who was then murdered in his sleep by his apprentiece was the best piece of acting in the film. The way Palpatine made you know that it was him in a subtle but obvious way was sublime. His "are you threatening me" line was also great. Overall, I'm the exact opposite of Andrew. I thought the beginning was rushed and the final 30 minutes were great. Obi-Wan/Anakin at the same time as Palaptine was throwing the council chambers at Yoda was excellent. Loved it when Yoda walked in and just threw Palpatine's guards against the walls, and the contrast when the previously indestructible little green dude was almost knocked out by the Emperor's force lightning. All in all, better than I thought. My opinion might go down after I've seen it again, but at the moment...I liked it. [/QB][/QUOTE]
