My Star Wars thoughts -- spoilers inside, kinda

I hated it.

No, I didn't it. I loved it.

I really did think the movie was great. Far better then the I and II. LOVED that Jar Jar had only one line, rather, one word. Sorry Pat, he just wasn't my favorite.

I thought this movie had more heart. We had real emotions, not only in the story, but in the audience as well. At least on my part.

I watched the movie, my emotions, thoughts, and heart completely enraptured. Anakin was so -- EVIL! And although I knew he was going to turn to the Dark Side, I *KNEW* he was going to turn bad, I kept screaming inside for him to turn back to the good side of the force. Apologize to Padme and help raise your babies. I was silently wishing Lucas would have said "Screw the previous storyline, let's give them a happy ending!"

But alas, he did not, as he should not have. Whether I wanted him to or not, it was not what he should have done, of course. But hey, I'm a sucker for the happy ending. But I am comforted in the knowledge that it all turns out ok for Anakin's kids.

Did anyone else's heart break when Obi-Wan left Anakin to die? You know it was killing Obi-Wan to do that, but he had no other choice. "You were the chosen one!" You could just feel the anguish and feelings of betrayal in his voice.

And when Padme dies because she's "lost the will to live"! HEART WRENCHING! If it would have been from a wound or injury or anything else I could have handled that better. But from a broken heart!

I have to comment now on Hayden Christiansen. Is it just me, or did he do a better job in this movie? In the second one I felt deprived of what could have been a good movie. No, he wasn't the only problem with II, but he was a big part of it, for me. But in III he almost did a good job. No, I wasn't impressed, not by any means, but I wasn't let down either. Best scene from him was when he was burned and he kept crawling on the side of the mountain/volcano. I guess its seeing his face and seeing how his acting seems so forced. I don't know.

All in all, I liked the movie.
