If not, take a short video of you swinging something around and make yourself look neat with this program. In photoshop, adding a saber to each video frame would be a huge pain in the ass. This makes it easier. It's also good for other video special effects, in case you're an amateur filmmaker."

You know what? I've been doing some thinking. I saw this with Dylflon and Typhoid, by the way.

The only reason this movie is so much better than the others is the fact that Yoda fights more than once. Seeing episode II in theatres, people just laughed at Yoda fighting. Also, seeing Darth Sidious fighting with a lightsaber was an happy surprise.

The ending went by too quick. And it didn't really explain why Anakin got a quasi-british accent all of a sudden. But the voice actor for Vader did a great job of copying Christensen's manner of speech when he spoke for the first time through the machine. It was a nice touch.

Oh, and that "NNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO" was great. One of the greatest in cinematic history, definitely!

Twas James Earl Jones but he went uncredited for that part.

Re: Star Wars *Spoilers*
 
Yeah, he was only credited in Return of the Jedi, right?

At first I thought they just brought in really good voice mixers, hahah. But then it was obvious they brought him back. Too bad he went uncredited.

Re: Star Wars *Spoilers*
 
Yeah. Heard that he felt that voice work wasn't enough to warrant a credit mention and asked to be uncredited for the other movies.

I'm surprised Hayden's name wasn't in the credits for Episode VI return of the jedi..

I got the newer 2004 trilogy release and they changed Anakin in the end of Episode VI to Hayden instead of the old guy.... makes the story connect better.

Anyways, to back up my previous statement, I think this one makes up for the crap filled mind numbing experience of the first two.


What sort of bugs me, is that the first 3, are spaced out over many many many years, and the last 3 are only a mere fraction compared to the time between Episodes I, II and III.

Well, its only really the time between Episodes I and II that is really long. In the original trilogy, there are three years in between IV and V, and one year in between V and VI, so the three years in between II and III isn't very extraordinary... Its the 10 years in ebwteen I and II that throws it off...

What Lucas should have done was start the trilogy with Episode II. Everything in Episode I was hardly necessary to understand the saga as a whole. We didn't have to see where Han met Chewie in the original trilogy, we don't need to see where Obi-Wan met Anakin or where Anakin met Padmé, etc. There would have to be more explanation of Anakin in the opening scroll, and then more explanation of the Separatists within the movie, but it would have worked better with the trilogy overall...

Then Episode III should have been split in two. One focusing more on Anakin's corruption; the next on him actually turning into Darth Vader.

It would have been better.

Me and my friend were discussing that the other day, and basically came up with the exact same idea you did...

Mostly based on Episode I being faaaairly pointless to the overall plot, and Anakin's turn to the dark side (after he actually became Darth Vader) going by just a little too fast...
