Episode III Spoilers

[athelind]

• In the immortal words of Syndrome, Anakin and Amidala "Get Busy". Amidala becomes pregnant with twins.
  
• Anakin joins with Palpatine, takes the Sith name of Darth Vader, and learns the secrets of the Dark Side of the Force.
  
• In a fight with Obi-Wan, he falls into a volcano and is horribly mutilated.
  
• He's rebuilt as a black-armored cyborg.
  
• He kicks serious Jedi ass, including that of Samuel L. Jackson, thus earning the title of Baddest Mutha***** In Any Galaxy.
  
• Obi-Wan hides Anakin's children, one with the son of the man who fell in love with Anakin's mother, the other with an Alderaan noble.
  
• Yoda moves to a swamp.
  
• Anakin's son grows up to become The Joker.

That said, despite my disappointment in pretty much everything since Empire, I find myself looking forward to the movie, especially after reading some recent interviews with Lucas.

I still think Serenity is going to kick its ass, though.

thus earning the title of Baddest Mutha***** In Any Galaxy.

It's true! It says so on his wallet!

[athelind.livejournal.com]

Yes, it does.

Actually, the Emperor kicks Mace Windu's ass, not Anakin :)

You can never trust spoilers you find on the Internet, you know.

Dude, the Matrix is all inside another Matrix!!

[stalbon.livejournal.com]

Trust me, Anakin has 'a hand' in it. ;P

Ok, I'm a dork. I *have* to see that movie. It's like being catholic. You *have* to go to mass on Easter. You don't have a choice. I won't enjoy it, but I'll have to see it. Otherwise, I'm going to have other dorks coming up to me and asking me questions like 'So, whatcha gonna do now? Go play some sports, fag?

*shrug* What can I say, I'm actually looking forward to Episode III, and think it'll be fun.

...and this is spoilerific, how? I know very little about Star Wars, and I pretty much knew all this stuff would happen :P

[athelind.livejournal.com]

...um, that's kinda the joke.

[arakaraath.livejournal.com]

Agreed, seeings we all know what happens in episodes 4, 5 and 6, its not like we didn't see this coming. Hardly spoilers.

Now if it turns out that this General Gervious (or whatever his name is) is really the cyborg reincarnation of Darth Maul, then I would be impressed.

I would have to argue that Obi Wan is actually the "Baddest Mutha***** In Any Galaxy", since he is the one who defeats Anakin on the volcano and is the only Jedi (besides Yoda, who doesn't count because he's a muppet) who survives the slaughter of the Jedi.

I've been a Star Wars geek since the age of 7, when ANH first came out. I was disappointed in Episodes 1 and 2, but willing to forgive (never quite forgave Lucas for the Ewoks, though...). I am very much looking forward to Epsiode 3, because I can't wait to see Obi Wan kick that whiny little snot's ass! I say getting mutilated in a volcano and becoming Darth Vader was a vast improvement on Anakin's personality.

Now... if only someone had dropped Luke into a volcano...

[athelind.livejournal.com]

They dropped him into a vat of chemicals at a playing card company! And he turned out much cooler and scarier, too!

[stalbon.livejournal.com]

He didn't actually fall in the volcano! He just...was really close to it. I've already read the novel, and I wasn't too impressed by it, sadly. I think it'll look spectacular, but...that's all just flash. I was looking forward to only one thing: Grievous. His parts in the story left me unimpressed. Genndy Tartakovsky did a better job with him, as did the novel Labrynth of Evil. In fact, Labrynth struck me as a far better story than Revenge!

*GASP*
He turned evil!
*GASP again*
She had babies?!
*GASPx3*
HE KILLED PEOPLE?! :O
*GASP to the fourth power*
HE WEARS A BLACK SUIT!

Well... the charm is not that you know what's going to happen. I mean, Amidala and Anakin make the beast with two backs, that's kind of obvious. Anakin has the potential to join the Dark Side, and we know he's gonna fall in lava, that's obvious. How it all plays out is the interesting part.

For the record, I snitched on LucasFilm and read the Dark Horse graphic novel in the quiet of a Borders, without having to sit next to the comic section of the store for hours on end. Theoretically I should feel bad about doing this. So I know how it all plays out, and it actually sounds like a pretty good movie - just not one worth the fanaticism.
