I do like the opening shot with the ship obscuring the battle. Nice touch there, Lucas. Sadly, the acting quickly ruins everything.

It's weird how the actors make no effort to sell the battle. Children add more believability in those space ship rides outside the grocery store.

Why is General Grevious limping like an asshole? He's a droid. Can't he just repair himself?

Did they just CGI Christopher Lee's head into someone else's body?

Yes! Yes! Let the hate flow through you. Decapitate Christopher Lee. That's how you kill a vampire.

Did General Grevious just cough? Yes. Yes he did. He's a cyborg. He was a human who got choked by Mace Windu and then had to get robotic augmentation to keep functioning. |

They just happened to land an exploding space ship in a landing strip. Was this whole battle taking place above an airport? Seriously?

So the first half hour of this movie was just a ploy by Palpatine/Grevious to get Anakin to the Dark Side. They sacrificed Christopher Lee for Hayden Christianson. Amazing.

Yes, Anakin. Tell your pregnant wife how you have dreams about her dying.

Obi Wan put too much faith in Anakin.
So... Palpatine overstayed his leadership in the Republic, using war as an excuse. The Jedi Counsel, due to their alligance to the Senate, want Anakin to spy on Palpatine. Meanwhile, Palpatine wants Anakin to spy on the Jedi while he's seeking votes to continue war instead of bringing back diplomacy. Sam Jackson and Yoda don't trust Anakin anymore and are suspicious of Palpatine.

The sith have the power to keep people from dying. That's how Palpatine is seducing Anakin.

Obi Wan leaves Anakin when he's most vulnerable. Shitty Jedi master.

I really dislike the whole "i dreamt shes gonna die so now i will do anything to stop that from happening" motivation.

While Obi Wan was busy defeating General Grevious, a pawn of the dark side, he lost Anakin to Palpatine.

Also, the light saber fights in this movie are awful. CGI old men jumping around.

Hey, Anakin. Your pregnant wife flew out to a volcano planet. If you wanted to save her life maybe you shouldn't have killed... everybody.

Obama: My alliance is to democracy!
Trump: If you're not with me, you're my enemy.
