So, I saw Revenge of the Sith last night at Alamo South Lamar. In a nutshell, it suuuuuuuuucked. Quick first impressions, many of which I’ve already read elsewhere:

  • Was Darth Vader’s Frankenstein move intentional? If so, it was lame. If not, it was still lame.
  • What’s with Palpatine chanelling Reagan from The Exorcist after killing Windu? A little over the top, wasn’t it?
  • Absolutely no character development once again. I didn’t give a damn about anybody in the film.
  • Anakin is a moron.
  • The bird/lizard thing that Obi-Wan was riding suuuuuucked.

Perhaps more later. I still haven’t decided if I’ll let The Boy see it. If I don’t, it’ll be more because I can’t sit through it again than the violence or dark themes.
