Star Wars III: Revenge of the Sith: Breadbox Edition

[evadne_noel]

This is the last Star Wars BBE I will be doing for a while. Ever since I saw it a week and a half ago, I've been eating, sleeping and breathing Star Wars. It started after we saw it. The next day, my friend was all, "Let's get drunk and watch 'Star Wars,'" and I stupidly thought she meant "A New Hope." Nope. She meant all six of them. It took

ooooooohhhh!! I need to see this movie. . . . must. . . . not . . .. read.. ..

[evadne_noel]

Whoops. Go away! Go away!

[queen_merla]

great icon!

[rioni]

I love your icon. I had to convince my friends that was what was going through his mind. ^_^

[wrong_trousers]

Brilliant as usual! I didn't think it was possible to parody that movie in it's brilliantness ('cept for the romance bits...) but there you go. Thr two lightsaber fights going on at once was the best part in the movie though. I thought that would be hard but you managed to do it justice. ^^ Bravo!

[evadne_noel]

I really liked the similtaneous lightsaber battles too. I thought they were both visually well done, and interwoven very well.

I'm glad you thought this was funny. I pretty much found the whole movie amusing, but the romance scenes did take the cake.

[wrong_trousers]

Although, one must admit, Vader's "NOOOOOO!" was really the funniest.xD

[evadne_noel]

Well, it made me crack up.

And I keep meaning to say this: Your icon is hilarious.

DISPOSABLE JEDI die.

That was PATHETIC. PATHETIC. They just died! They went down so easily. You'd think they'd be a tad more talented, what with them being Jedi Knights and everything.

GRIEVOUS
Those are my organs! That’s private!

OBI-WAN
I really do not understand how you work.

*geeks out* Grievous was a cyborg, which isn't explained at all in the movie. But I read some Star Wars books where he makes appearances, and it was all explained.

ANAKIN kills CHILDREN. There is no possible way to make this FUNNY.

That scene killed me. I was sobbing my eyes out.

AUDIENCE
Round one: Bearded Hot Guy vs. Whiny Hot Guy! FIGHT!

I actually thought Obi-Wan looked really ridiculous in this one.

DARTH VADER starts to explode things with his ANGER. The DRAMA looks good.

Wasn't it weird to hear James Earl Jones asking about Padme? I've seen the movie twice in the past week and I still can't get over it.

[evadne_noel]

I do not understand what was wrong with the Jedi in this movie. The chick on the brightly colored planet didn't even get her lightsaber out. The Jedi with Mace were offed in 5 seconds flat. Maybe this is the reason Lucas expects us to believe most of the Jedi are wiped out immediately.

I need to see "Clone Wars." I knew Grievous was a cyborg, but that still doesn't explain to me his flimsy chest covering and free hanging organs.

I wasn't really checking anyone out in this movie, even Obi-Wan. But everyone tells me he's hot, so I figured I should mention it at least once.

The first two James Earl Jones lines were fine. They sounded right, even if he did sound concerned. But then...

[royalsongstress]

You do NOT want to see the Clone Wars. The animation, the dialogue, the...grrr. It made me cringe in my seat. Stay far, far away. The exposition isn't worth it, save yourself!

In other news: This rocks. Yay for the Shalot shout out. Can I make icons for this? I think your BBEs need icons, but I don't want to infringe on your authoress rights (except for my blatant stealing for this icon) ^.

*hug*

[royalsongstress]

Oh yes, I forgot to add: my viewing party and I were wondering when along the line Vader developed his British accent?...Sometime tween 3 and 4 obviously.

[dreamstrifer]

OMG LADY OF SHALLOTT!

Randomness.

Heh.

Anyway, that was utterly brilliant. I thought it was 18 years between ROTS and A New hope (I dunno, that's what my brother said). Oh well. Still, kinda weird.

Ahem. Yes. I quite loved this. This made me very happy indeed. I went to see this with a group of 12 rabid star wars fans, and we all agreed the yoda/palpatine battle was the most entertaining. We also counted over 8 severed limbs in this movie.

[evadne_noel]

The moment I saw Padme in her funeral floaty thing with the flowers everywhere, I thought, "What? Is she the Lady of Shallot?" So, I had to quote Tennyson.

I don't know exactly how many years are between RotS and ANH. I just estimated. Though...McGregor turns into Guinness in 18-20 years? That sun must age one really fast.

Yoda v. Palpatine was so good. I'm sorry Yoda lost, but he had to. I still think he could have taken Palpatine eventually.

Glad you liked it! Thanks!

[nazgul_number_7]

My friends and I immediately thought Ophelia from "Hamlet". But the Lady of Shallot works so much better, with the whole broken heart thing (which I thought was the biggest copout in the world).

[evadne_noel]

Seeing as John Williams Waterhouse did paintings of both Ophelia and The Lady of Shallot, I think either allusion is fair. I definately think Lucas was going for the Pre-Raphaelite image.

***laughs***

oh, this is so great. Thanks for making the day better.

[evadne_noel]

Glad I could help your day along! Thanks!
