Glad it is finished

Rating: 2/10 (1 June 2005)

I am glad it is finished! I have been waiting for years for the beginning of what i consider the best saga ever and Lucas came out with these three terrible movies. And full of mistakes, too. First of all, the Jedi knights were wise, calm and Lucas depicted Obi-Wan and Anakin as two cowboys with a terrible sense of humor (see the line "Jedi business" in the bar in Episode II). They look more like Mel Gibson and Denny Glover in Lethal Weapon than two peace guardians working for the Republic. And going on with the mistakes in all the new trilogy: 1)In the original Star Wars Obi-Wan (Ben at the time) says that he doesn't recognize the droids, especially this last model. We can clearly see that these droids should be at least 35 years old. What is worse, though, is that the line in the DVD version of the movie has been changed in "interesting". I couldn't believe it! 2)Two full movies talk about the clone army, but no explanation is given on where the officers of the army come from. The people with the gray uniform without the mask, apparently with higher rank, are not clones and since there is no army before the clones one I don't get how they can be present at the end of Episode III. 3)Apparently Chewbacca knows Yoda and the Jedis. So why when Obi-Wan and Luke hire Han Solo and Chewbacca they keep laughing about the force and the Jedis? What's happened to the Wookie? Did he forget anything? 4)In Episode II Obi-Wan finds that the clone army has been built with the help of Jango Fet and, towards the end of the movie, that Jango is helping count Dooku to built the droids army. Now, i understand that Palpatine is hampering the judgment ability of the Jedis, but even a two-year-old kid would see that those two things are related. And what do they do? They use the clones to fight the droids! Does it make sense? 5)In the first movie Darth Vader is not in command of anything. He is a subordinate to the commander of the station. Isn't it in contradiction with the role the Siths have in the empire? He should be the emperor's right arm. 6)Maybe this is not a mistake, but something that really bothers me: why doesn't Obi-Wan kill Anakin? Couldn't Lucas find a way to let Anakin live without make a total fool of Obi-Wan?
There are many other things not adding up correctly, but I stop here. I hope that Lucas doesn't decide to go on with Episode VII, VIII and IX!!!!
