Revenge of the Sith is a fantastic movie and is my third favorite movie in the series after ESB and ANH. While some may nitpick stuff like Hayden's acting, I have to say it is just as bad or good as any other franchise like LOTR or HP. I did not see any oscar wothy acting in those either. There are plenty of cringe worthy acting in those two franchises from the main actors as well.The action scenes and set pieces are fantastic. The scene where Vader watches the skies from the destroyer at the end is hearbreaking and makes me tear up everytime I watch it.I'm one of the few on these boards that has watched all six in their original release itself. For me, the end of EP 3 was bittersweet. A big part of my childhood and adulthood memories are tied to Star Wars. I'm one of those that hopes the Star War universe continues with more episodes.A+

Bollywood is a joke. The current Agneepath is laughably bad compared to the original with the Great Amitabh. It is bloated, uneven and completely boring. but for one scene where Vijay stabs the bad guy during Ganesha festivities and proclaims his name as Vijay Dinanath Chauhan.I had not watched bollywood movies for 22 years till last year. Having warched third rate gems like Don 2 and Agneepath, I will go back to not watching these pointless and boring movies made by talentless hacks. The lead female was so irritating in Agneepath that I was ecstatic when she died. I was happy to not see her pathetic performance continue for the rest of the movie.

I started following box office in 1981 with the release of Superman 2 and Raiders of the Lost Ark. I tarcked box office info. from magazines that would print weekend/weekly numbers for the movies.

Not only a troll, but a liar too. Show me where I said that TPM would get $37M. Don't just make stuff up to make your ridiculous assertions.Wait a sec.... Aren't you the dude who said it was going to hit $37m just a couple of hours ago? No wonder. I'd be bitter if I were as epically wrong as you were, too.And, like, we all kinda know the definition of "downgraded" and we also all kinda know that the continuously lowered estimates for TPM match the word's definition precisely. (As in, "Morningstar downgraded IBM stock from a 'Strong Buy' to a 'Buy'".)

You are as thick as they come. It was not downgraded. It is Nikki adjusting for the upmteenth time that Nikki is known for doing every week. You act as if people went back and asked for refunds and that resulted in a lower gross. Her numbers from the beginning of the day were projections, It is not like the actual went down.. BTW a $12m OD would have been fantastic. A $8.5 Mi OD is good and is in line with most expectations.You are a troll without any common sense and argue with nothing but ridiculous assertions.TPM downgraded yet AGAIN, this time to 23m for the weekend, and a likely #4 finish behind Journey 2 and probably a total of well below 50m."FANTASTIC!!!" shouts the internet community, supposedly full of "haters".

A personal sampling? Having you been hiding under the proverbial rocks? Just read the posts related to TPM over the last several weeks.If if were doing what was being predicted , how come majority of the people are shocked. Your reactions border on the ridiculous. You seem to be basing your reactions on your seeming personal hatred of TPM."All we heard"? Who is "we"? Who are you speaking on behalf of? And when you claim that everybody said there was "no buzz", who are those people and how did you determine that they speak for everybody?HSX has had it high 20's all week. Deadline had a poll which ranged from 20m to 50m, and the weighted average would be right around 30m. So....where are you getting this information, exactly?It sounds like your taking your own personal sampling of things - which sure as heck doesn't sync up with mine - and then claiming that they represent some mythical overarching edict or something. I saw commercials all over the place, and a freaking SUPER BOWL ad....for a re-release! You can't get more "buzz" than that, chief.Anyway, it'll close out with under 60 and it probably cost double that to make and market, so I'm still perplexed by all these claims of triumph.

Why is it fantastic?All we have heard over the last month is that TPM has no buzz and bad WOM finally will catch this time, 3D conversion is no good etc.Inspite of all this negativity it has had an excellent OD. That would be fantastic also considering 95% of the predictions had it less than $21m for the weekend..Once again, how the HECK is this "fantastic" for TPM?It's going to be SUPER-frontloaded, it has no BD to promote, and the advertising was, like, summer-blockbuster caliber. Super Bowl ad, cross-promotions, and TV galore. How is a #3 OW and 50m or 60m "fantastic"?I'm not getting this. I thought everybody on the internet was a "hater" or whatever, but instead all I'm reading is this bizarre rationalization for a middling performance. Where are these mythical "hater" hordes and what do you call the reams of exclamation mark brigades.

Fantastic for TPM.
Great number for Safe House and Good number for The Vow.
The number for Journey is ok given the other three did huge numbers and not much was expected from it to begin with.

Excellent actioner. The screenplay is very brezy and good. The action scenes are fabulous. Burg scenes are breathtaking. The score is mediocre. Very entertaining.

I love this movie. I think it is my favorite Nolan movie. The acting, the genesis story, score and the atmosphere are wonderful. It is way better than The Dark Knight.

Amazing movie. Great performances along with awesome battle scenes. Not only the best war movie ever made, but also one of the best movies ever made.

I think the holidays are over. The weekend gross will be muted in Russia.

The movie is an all out entertainer. The colors are vivid and the screens just shines unlike the dark 3D movies.
The script is crisp, action fun and the movie moves at lightning speed.
Don't Miss it.
