Yup, just back from the 1030pm show. It is indeed so far the most touching episode of the all the star wars series. The desire of keeping the love ones in your life, the desire of gaining power and be stronger and more competitive to the fellow counterparts are just one of the factors that lead one to the dark side.
For Anakin Skywalker, the main reason for him to choose to serve the dark side is his love for Amidala. His fear of losing her allows Palpatine to manifest on his fear and manipulate him to believe that the power of the dark side could prevent amidala from dying. The moments before anakin make the decision to proceed to save Palpatine, the scene of amidala grazing at the Jedi temple and anakin looking to the direction of her apartment, that intensity that feeling,.... i thought that was pretty well protrayed. Anakin is not the bad guy, he did all the betrayer stuff out of love and to a certain extent,,, the thirst of power. At the last scene after he lost his legs and got burnt becoming darth vader while amidala lost her life after giving birth to the twins. so ironic... One side, anakin was fighting to stay alive for her while she had lost the will to live. Palpatine still have to add the last straw to inform him that he had killed her instead with the intention to make him even more powerful with all the greivance and unhappiness within him. That's what dark side is all about. How could u ever find happiness in there ????
Well, towards the end, the usual fighting scenes such as doing the balancing act while fighting had folllowed the tradition of star wars series.... very well illustrated. The graphics and animination are excellent and impressive.
Of course, my favourite character is still R2D2...... it is always so adorable and cute. ha ha ha.
Maythe force be with all you. =P
