Saw Episode III last night, just because it's obligated viewing. Although I still felt it was tedious at times, it was still okay. Roger Ebert was right when he said the dialogue was crap. Even seasoned, respected actors, like Samuel L. Jackson and Jimmy Smits, came off sounding stilted. And by the way, Jimmy Smits still looks *fine*. Christopher Lee's part was brief, but does he have a voice or what? I didn't get any sense of the undying love between Padime and Anniken. Padime's part was reduced to that of hand-wringing, stay-at-home senator. But still, there was a sense of satisfaction and closure at the end. If it's true that there's going to be more installments, I hope Lucas stays out of the script-writing and directing. "General Grievous"? That's a villain's name written by a third-grader.
