Anakin's whole change, his fall from grace, if you will, didn't convince me (although they could have done a worse job on it, I admit), and what really bugged me was the ending. "Screw the republic, we're the empire now, let's build that big round spaceship (and never mind the giant gravitational pull), that's Luke, and that's Leia, and, oh, crap, their mother just died, hello, Lord Vader", all crammed into the last few minutes.
The worst thing about all three "new" movies was the droids. I did like the idea of battle robots, and I even sort of liked the design (except for the whole "eye-thing"), but it really ruined it for me that they were talking and even behaving like human beings. I mean, screaming and shouting, and dialogs like "Hey, what was that sound?" - "Probably nothing." between to robots... Seriously?
Last movie I watched, at least parts of it, was "Idiocracy". Funny as hell, but I only have it in German. Can't imagine how funny it would be in English...

No. I said it was "ok". It didn't bore me and had nice colours and good action. I wasn't convinced by it. I just said in comparison to The Phantom Menace, a film that when I watched I could barely tear my face from my palm, it was decent enough.

I prefer the old movies, and I remember when they came out the first time, it was ama-zing! The first time a movie started straight out without all the credits. I still think that is one of the greatest movies ever.
The new ones are good enough but the age is ridiculous. 17 year old Anakin becoming Darth Vader in the last minute of the movie. I would've liked them to be a little older, but then I suppose things are different on other planets, in another world. I like fighting Yoda. I can't find the YouTube video of Yoda fighting in the Clone Wars.

I know what you're thinking. You're thinking How could the Millenium Falcon make the Kessel Run in less than 12 parsecs when a parsec is a unit of distance? Go on, ask it. Make my day.
