obvious sequel potential

Rating: 8/10 (19 May 2005)

Saw the new george lucas movie today. really good. better than his last two and certainly better than the one with the duck.
Of course it ends with the bad guy's not completely dead, and two babies are born, so they've left it open for a sequel, as usual. typical.
weird thing was that, in the last 5 or 10 minutes, all the styling, costumes etc, went really retro - like a 70s look. I appreciate that they've just had a huge intergalactic war and all the most hi-tech stuff may have been destroyed. But when the chief bad guy gets remade in a hi-tech robot, it's got big clunky red and green buttons on the breast-plate! They should have had some cgi in this movie, to bring things like that to life.
