DO you know that ESB had much worse reviews than ROTS?

He has a one good point. The PT doesn't have that sense of "usedness" that made the OT so charming.

I have to disagree with most everything else he said. He criticizes the lack of "blue" comedy and language, which is one of the things that I love about Star Wars. He then goes on to ridicule Yoda. Nope, this review holds no water for me.

This review sucks. I don't see what points he is trying to make other then bashing the movie. bashing Yoda deeply offends me, as Yoda is my favorite character of almost the whole seires next to Darth Vader. His reasons for bashing him, are needless to say, pointless. They hold no ground.

The PT has made Yoda into an idiot. I shudder to think what he'll do in this film. Any criticism of PT Yoda is definately well founded.

I dig the review, even if bashing Lucas has gotten to be as easy as shooting fish in a barrell (though I'm not sure why anyone would want to shoot a fish in a barrell).

I'd like a qui-gon jinn please with an obi-wan to go.
