I'm sorry you didn't enjoy it so much. Its sort of ironic the one guy who posts didn't like it. lol, jk. And the whole Hayden thing, he isn't the best actor, by any means, but he did an okay job, imo. Oh, and i think the reason us girls liked him was for his looks, mainly. -cough-shirtless scene-cough-hehehe. Anyways, I actually just got back from seeing it a 2nd time (with people who hadn't seen it) and I didn't enjoy it AS much since I obviously knew what was going to happen. But I still enjoyed it a lot, and noticed a couple of new things

I have to agree that Hayden's acting is not the best. The only reaso I really like this movie is because it connects to the original trilogy. While doing some random Star Wars searches, I found this Lego video with Star Wars Legos. The last few scenes are so funny. Enjoy! www.lego.com/starwars/default.aspx |

I loved the whole connection part of the movie, and how you can relate to it when you watch the original trilogy. The thing that sticks out that I didn't like was most of the scenes with Anakin and Padme because her emotions didn't really seem real, more like she was acting. And there were a few details that weren't quite right, either, but you can ignore those for storytelling's sake. After a while the fight scenes got a little boring because they were similar and we'd seen all those little fighting tricks before. However, I really did like the movie as a whole, despite knowing the outcome for that very reason. You can guess what is in the movie based on its position in the saga, but seeing it actually happen is exciting. And Hayden is cute despite becoming a bad guy.

Well, funnily enough, strong acting and dialogue have never been the series' strongest suit. And for the record, Natalie Portman (Padme Amidala) is an amazing actress when she actually has a character she can play with-- ever seen Garden State? I want to be her character Sam, seriously.
And that Star Wars Lego thing was great.

Yeah, I loved how you could say "Omg, THAT'S why that happened in the original movies!" or something! My favorite tie in was SPOILER the birth of Luke and Leia (plus the babies were sooo cute!lol). And their birth left you with a sense of hope, even knowing what was going to happen. Natalie is actually one hell of an actress, but this definitly didn't show her talents (mostly dialouge's fault, not her own).

Yeah. I've heard the same thing about Hayden, though I've yet to see him in another context.
And I just re-watched the beginning of the original movie, and having seen the new one makes it SO much more fun!

I know! lol, sad though it may be, right when I got home from episode III (at 1:00 am, no less) I watched the fourth one with my friends (one of which never saw the originals, which must be cool since she really didn't know what was going to happen). It does make it more fun..Anyways, sorry, but I'm super excited because I'm going to my school's production of Annie's reunion party! We're seeing the "world premiere" of our version on a big screen in an auditorium, and having a red carpet, and dressing up like we're going to the oscars in the 20s...lol, I'm too excited!

except this also means I have to meet up with the (STUPIDSTUPIDSTUPIDANNOYING) 7th grader Ashley...Now, I don't mean to go off on a rant (well, yes I do), but in Annie, it was made up of 7th and 8th graders(myself being an 8th grader) and I had a lot of friends in it, and one of my friends became friends with Ashley, who seemed alright at the time. Then the girl wouldn't leave my friend alone (and my friend, not trying to be mean, really liked the attention) and soon became SOOO annoying, and also the 'drama queen' of the show. She would flirt with every freaking boy, and none of them liked her, and then she'd cry to my friend because they didn't...Sorry, just a rant there.

Ah, that sounds like fun  Enjoy! And yeah, I want to compare the experience of seeing one trilogy before the other...should be interesting, because the next generation of SW fans will probably watch them all in proper order...hm. |

The Star Wars thing was adorable! Although Hayden is incredibly good-looking he has got to be one of the worst actors I have ever seen! With exception of one person I know who thinks she is the greatest actress ever! Didn't mean to rant there but you know.. The screenplay was only so-so, I was kinda dissapointed. But the movie was still incredible. I'm glad they finally ended the series I was left with so many questions to many times!!

And if you want to see Hayden in another context I think he's in Door in the Floor. But I'm not sure, I'll check though

No, its a guy named Jon Foster(hottie!) in Door in the Floor. I just got back from the reunion, very fun, but the girl Ashley who really annoys me somehow managed to still make me feel bad about myself by coming up to me in front of my friends and some guys and going "Hey Sarah! Wait, that's not your name, what is your name again?" even though she has done this b4, so CLEARLY knows my name. GRRRRRRR sorry, rant there. Btw, Door in the Floor is an awesome movie! And I agree, Maureen, the dialouge was sorta sucky ("NOOOOOOOOO!" lolololol!) and he is not the WORST actor ever! I've seen worse, truth be told. In EP III he was MUCH better than EP II. I loved it too tho

Oh, come on, the "NOOO" was so perfectly Star Wars! Poorly written, cliched, and yet so perfect!

lol, my dad was telling me the same thing. He says there have been so many spoofs (Spaceballs...lol) that it makes it seem funny, yet if there weren't the spoofs it wouldn't be
