Red Letter Media's Star Wars: Revenge Of The Sith Review

BMP!

i don't care what everyone says. i love the prequel trilogy. my favorite of all six films is III. i grew up watching them. the first SW film i ever saw was phantom menace and i [frick]ing loved it. the prequel trilogy has a far more complex story involving politics. i mean, look at palapatine. the whole ''rise to power'' scheme is brilliant. a really like the original trilogy as well of course. you can't beat darth vader. but i was lucky enough to watch every episode for the first time in the correct chronological order. I through VI, so i think i can judge better than someone who grew up with the originals only, because i can see the six films as a whole.

I love Plinkett and his Murkins, when he did episode I review I thought "70 minutes!? F*ck that. I watched the first 10 minutes, and then decided to watch the next 10 minutes, and the next 10. AND IT IS AMAZING. I love his reviews, one of the best internet characters ever.

I liked the SITH movie...

Well apart from DARTH VADER's going NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! : p

20TH Century Fox actually made something good in the last few years!

It will not play the audio for me. Probably some hacker, all I get are choppy pops, nothing you could understand. I even tried Safari browser and going directly to the website.

Too bad cause I H-A-T-E the last 4 films soooo much. Lucas's fetish with "cute" marketing destroyed Star Wars for me. Toys! To me he sold out to the "Dark-Side" :(

I want to see these reviews to continue to pile on the Star Wars ppl, that crapped on LotR's fans, just because they felt "threatened".

AllPurposeNaji, A New Hope is #13 on the AFI Top 100 films of all time along with similar high rankings among the original 3 on many other such lists. I think it qualifies them as a bit more than popcorn flics and describing them as such isn't very accurate. The originals are still quality cinema with strong, compelling story and brilliant visual style. Visual Effects as we know it come from companies created to make the original trilogy, and the overall greatness of them created an entire pop-culture phenomena that other fictions and films rarely accomplish, and without which the prequilogy wouldn't have even been possible. On a personal level, Empire Strikes Back is one of the best films of all time! How anyone could consider it a popcorn flic is beyond me, but your entitled to your opinion. I just think you should sit through the originals then the prequels again, uninterrupted(by that I mean people and other shit distracting you, not consecutively), and pass judgment again.

I agree with about 90% of Plinkett's view. Most disagreement I have with him is minor shit not worth mentioning, but 1 thing I wanted to touch on was the Clone issue. It was always somewhat obvious to me(basically because my dad loves Star Wars and had since the theatrical release) that the Storm Troopers were clones. I remember that was one thing he really liked about Attack of the Clones as it firmly established something he'd always been sure of, but had no real proof. In all fairness, he is one of those SW fans who reads all the novels and shit that comes out for them, I'm content to watch the movies and play the games, read a few comics. Even so, I remember how much sense it always made thinking of them like that once the idea was presented to me.

I don't hate the prequels, but I see them for what they are. Lucas did lose touch with his film making roots. Every time I see him in behind the scenes footage sitting behind monitors sipping coffee all I can do is hang my head. Just like Plinkett shows too, it is a big difference when you see the footage and pics of him filming the originals and he looks like Indiana Jones slightly less cool cousin filming on location in a [frick]ing desert. These films should have been better.

Episode III was fan fiction. Worst movie going experience I have ever had in my life. Absolute train wreck.

Mr Plinkett is a god.

1st the empire strikes back
2nd return of the jedi
3rd star wars
4th revenge of the sith
5th attack of the clones
6th phatom menace

If you like the Star Wars prequels you're a retard.... Enough said!

well I fully agree with @denn1s, I grew up on the prequals and they are some of my favorite movies. and i dont think its the die hard fans that like the prequals, i think its the die hard fans who dont like them, it seems to be a bunch of guys who grew up on the originals and cant grasp the new movies because of how different they are, you people are drawing to many comparisons. albeit the originals were fantastic, id still pick the phantom menace over a new hope any day

I cant get pass the 1st 5 minutes of the videos..HE's [frick]ing voice is like ants in my eyes!

Fullmetal. Ok, so by that rationale I'm going to assume you don't think any film maker has ever made a bad movie then? [frick] off you idiot. I am also an amateur fill maker and know full well the work that goes into it. The sad fact is that some people are simply better than others at it. And in the cases of these abortions or prequels Lucas, hard work or not, screwed the pooch.

It's funny how people waste their time arguing over the internet with people they've never seen or known in their lives.
