I watched ROTS last night and I expected to be heart broken once again, but to my amazement, I was not. This movie is soooooooooooooo much better than the first two. I found myself struggling minimally through the Ani-Padme love scenes, and I only cringed at the CGI droids and creatures about three or four times.
I have three grivences however, but they are forgivable IMO considering the overall improvement of this film from the last two.
1. Grevious was cool for about .7 seconds – until he started speaking – thank the gods he only polluted the movie for a fraction of the time.
2. The Kasshyk/Wookiee thing was a cheap shot and a GL does deserve a good slap in the mouth for putting it in the film.
3. I was totally buying into the realism of the final scenes… right until …."NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.” I would have recommended a good cheese for Anakin’s whine, but this disturbing line did it for me.
Just a few thoughts from your average passerby.

But TPM is still really good, if you accept it as a movie oriented towards children!
I liked the scene where a silent Jar Jar follows Padme’s funeral procession. I actually got a little teary-eyed. Everybody just looked so sad, and they didn’t clutter it up with poorly conceived dialogue.
What pisses me off is – why didn’t GL just make all three PG-13 and tragic. If you ask me (which I know you didn’t) they don’t say the f#ck work nearly enough. Or at all for that matter.

Very funny, Barend. It would make an excellent parody.
BTW, has anyone seen the "Revenge of the Brick" short video at lego.com? Yes, I'm too old to be caring about legos, but it's actually really funny. They use Grievous as a tv antenna.
