So so so soooooooo fucking bad. This is what happens when you have to write a movie that resolves into a classic. And the Obi-Wan/Anakin fight was without a doubt the high point of the movie. Shit I still got chills thinking about it. I'm not as jaded and bitter as you on the whole thing though. I was expecting such utter tripe that it was an improvement and not so much of a disappointment. I left the theater thinking "I can go on and live the rest of my days without ever thinking of Star Wars again." That's what I wanted from this thing. Closure. Closure on a festering wound that was struck from the first "Meesa" to the end. And all I could keep thinking about was garroting Lucas for killing Darth Maul when we're surrounded by millions of clones. Anyway it's over. I don't have the satisfying feeling I had at the end of Return of the King by any fucking stretch. The best thing I can say about Star Wars is that it's fucking over. And fuck TV. I am so bitter towards TV execs that I can't ever love again. I just finished watching Firefly last night and when great shows like that are cancelled and we get stuck with yet another Star Drek series I want to shoot someone.
