In your opinion, is it as good as the old movies, specifically The Empire Strikes Back and Return Of The Jedi(My personal favorites.)? I wasn't really excited about Episode 3, *Shivers*ever since I watched that terrible movie they call "Star Wars Episode 2", it left me with a very bad impression of how the next installment in the saga would be.

Of course, movie reviews are all just personal opinion and others may find they have a different opnion than I do, but III was leaps and bounds ahead of II in all aspects. It has more of a "classic Star Wars" feel to it and I enjoyed it MUCH more than II, or I for that matter.

Although, I wouldn't go so far as to say it's better than Empire or Return, (that's just crazy talk! ) but I think you'll be happy with it. Lots of great action scenes (battles in space, lightsabre fighting, the force stuff, etc...) and they told the story really well to close off III and move into IV pretty smoothly.

I hope they do a 7,8, and 9. I think those would be interesting. Although didnt George Lucas say episode III is the last star wars movie hes going to make?

Yep. I think he said he's done with Star Wars and moving on to other projects.

Not looking to start a fight, but why does everyone like the 5th episode so much? The movie just stops and I don't see why it is considered sooo good. Any thoughts are welcome, thanks.

It may seem that way, but believe you me... she is a whole lot "sharper" than you may think. Her dimness is an act for her TV shows. One of the most articulate and intelligent people in Hollywood.

And sorry Punked, don't think I can help you with Jessica. I'll say hi to Kirsten Dunst on the set of Spiderman 3 for you though.

As for Star Wars 7, 8 and 9, the storyline for those 3 are nowhere near as exciting and interesting as the first 6. Lucas has said it's going to stop here, and the last 3 won't be "movie-ized".

Because the "bad" guys actually struck back? Like finally! I mean, it would have been such a cooler series if Darth Vader had been Luke Skywalker and vica versa, but no, a wimpy little fellow has to whup someone who so outweights him in supreme coolness...

I am kinda tired...

My friend, you must see Revenge of the Sith!
Judging by your comments above, it is the movie YOU have been waiting for.
