there is and will always be 2 levels of Star Wars fans IMO.
1. The general movie crowd, who really don't have the depth of all the surrounding lore. Which is why the movies seem so off or have plot holes in them.

2. The super fans who have read every comic book, novel, and watched the movies. Which is why they understand some things the movies were trying to do but are upset at how simple or poorly executed critical scenes and story arcs were.

Anakin fighting Obi-Won was the best part of that movie to me. At the end where he "officially becomes Darth Vader" was a really good part to me too, it shows how powerful he is with the force.

No they didn't. It just showed that he was a good acrobat who ridiculously rehearsed his skills. That duel does not feel real. Seriously, look at the final duel between Luke and Vader and then look at Vader vs Obi Wan, and tell me which one looks real and has humanity to it.

Aside from introducing microscopic bacteria, what new did the prequels do with the Force? Yes, nice acrobatic moves, and that's it. Just a stunning lack of creativity when we'd see the Jedi and Sith at the full power. The Force is the energy that binds the universe; couldn't you have thought of something more creative than gymnast moves and lightning. That's literally all we see in the prequels from the Force.

Sorry, but the duel between Obi Wan and Vader, while epic, is incredibly disappointing. All they did was insult each other, go through an overly elaborate fight, and then Obi Wan leaves him to burn alive instead of putting him out of his misery. I'd rather Obi Wan think he killed Anakin only to find out he survived later. It's simply sad and sadistic in the way Obi Wan left. Would have taken him 6 seconds to put him out of his misery.

I honestly hope it doesn't and they show nothing more. Everyone will see the movie. Just keep it to "There has been an Awakening" and lure people into what that Awakening is. I've got a good idea on what it means, and I think it's an awesome concept if what I'm thinking is true.

I am a huge Star Wars nerd and refuse to watch Revenge of the Sith. The only scene I've seen is the fight at the end and it was beyond terrible compared to Return of the Jedi.

Only thing I hated about the fight between Obi Wan and Anakin was Anakin's cheesy arse lines.

"You turned her against me?"- After he had just fricking force choked her to death and she was begging for him to just stop and be with her

"If you're not with me, then you're my enemy"- After Obi Wan had just explained everything stupid about him turning

"In my point of view, the Jedi are evil"- One of the biggest scenes that led to the final scenes in the end. Completely fricked up by the script.


Other than that, I loved the ending. Really emotional, great fighting- though there wasn't much aggressive attacking in there, just defending-, and great music as always by John Williams.

True, Vader vs luke was the best dual. The fact that Vader included leia and luke got pissed made it even better.
