It wasn&#8217;t mind-blowingly good, though. The scene transitions were like out of a Power Point slide show (maybe faithful to the old movies?) and the funniness of the beginning baffled me &#8212; I thought, &#8220;I didn&#8217;t remember SW was a comedy.&#8221; All the robots had silly helium voices, the events happened too fast, the mushy-mushy scenes were tacky, and my sister pointed out that Palpatine was doing a pretty good impression on Gollum. In some of the scenic views it seemed like the picture was full of garbage but I figure they were vehicles that just weren&#8217;t moving (Why weren&#8217;t they? They <em>forgot<\/em> to animate them?)<\/p>\n<p>Ewan McGregor shouldn&#8217;t have had a beard. That&#8217;s a big minus. But then again, he was playing Obi Wan. Hayden Christensen is just BLEURGH!
