Finally got around to watching Star Wars episode III this afternoon. Although Scott went to see it in the theater and bought the DVD as soon as it came out, I just couldn't propel myself to watch it until I was good 'n ready. I have to be in a "mood" to watch movies that have a lot of action/fighting sequences.
I will say that I was pleased that George Lucas tied episodes II and IV together pretty seamlessly. I didn't feel like he was just tossing in a lot of crap to make the series end nice and tidy. Everything made sense, and given that most people who've seen episodes IV-VI would know that certain people get killed off, it didn't feel terribly predictable.
Good movie. I will say, thought, that because I saw Space Balls before I saw Star Wars, I never really thought of Darth Vader as an ominous character - even with the James Earl Jones voice. All I could think about was Rick Moranis in that big-ass helmet. Not so much now.
