I tried watching it again and had to put if off after twenty minutes, It is terrible...I hate the film, it totally ruins (along with Ep. 1 and 2) the characters of Anakin and Palpatine.

I put on the last eight minutes though (from the point Vader's mask is put on till the end) and I must admit for that time it felt like Star Wars.

Well done Lucas! You've spent millions, made billions and wasted so many people's time, convinced me you're a hack and a pathetic writer these days....but you've produced an amazing eight minute prologue to A New Hope.

Oh and I can't see why people think this can be on ROTJ's level if not above it, to me it was a fitting end to the trilogy. The scenes with the Emperor/Luke/Vader were amazing although you do have to ignore the prequel trilogy for Leia's references to her mother and to have sympathy for Vader.

Original Trilogy Anakin Skywalker - Sad tragic character who underestimated the power of the Emperor, seduced by the darkside and fell

Prequel Trilogy Anakin Skywalker - Moody, greedy, whiney, annoying, monotone, bland and uninteresting....given everything on a silver platter yet still falls to the darkside.

I hate you George Lucas! You've ruined an amazing saga just for money, episodes 1-3 never needed to be told cause it was all explained in episodes 4-6!

Out of 10......2 (those last eight minutes entertained me in an otherwise terrible film)
