Default Has anyone seen Episode 3 Yet? What are your thoughts on it?

I just got back from episode 3. I personally thought it was great, if not a bit heavy. What are your thoughts?

Mister Lucas, you are now forgiven for Episode I

SITH ROCKED!!!!!
Is it just me, or did Grevious seemed rather weak compaired to what he was like in both seasons of clone wars.
Like in Clone Wars he was kicken' *** at taken sabers. Episode III he was almost on a verge of an ashma attack, or trying to cough up a fur ball.

But I want one of his bikes!!!! That thing kicked ***.

I loved it, it was seriously one of the best movies I ever saw. Definately the best of the Star Wars saga...man....I was so pumped after I saw that movie. I went to the midnight showing on May 19th.

yeah, I noticed Grevous was kinda weak compared with the Clone wars cartoons... I was kinda hoping he'd get taken out by a lightsaber.

Let me just say that, while not a big Star Wars fan, I'm a big sucker for any fantasy mythos that can execute a story half decent. Now, I have to say no. III was kind of a let down (just saw it a few hours ago). I probably bought in a little too much to the hype--that's a mistake I make often with these blockbusters (ehem, reloaded...cough,cough, revolutions). Still, it wasn't bad and the second half was undoubtedly better than the first half. Everything in the second half was better...the fighting, the pace, and even the CGI. That said, I have to say my biggest beef with the movie was the CGI. CGI is such a revolutionary technique in movies, but it's so easy to misuse. And Lucas really overdoes it with the CGI, I mean he could use puppets for more realistic portrayls in many cases if you ask me (but, I am a sucker for some good puppets haha). CGI, as it's generally used looks to0 fake--and this movie had that glossy sheen look all over the place. Some scenes and characters--Yoda--make me think of Pixar and what they might be doing in the next few years, or even some cutscenes form some top-tier video games...However, the Lava Planet CGI was solid throughout, I'll say that. I just don't know why it all couldn't have looked that good. Eh, maybe Im too picky about CGI...I don't want to spoil a good movie for yous...all said and done, it was good.
