It doesn't take much to make Maddox very, very, very, angry.

That said, all of his points are good. I, too, enjoyed the movie but it's primarily because Lucas can afford to hire an army of excellent filmmakers to hide his script as best they can.

Between the years of Episode 3 and 4, the Empire is in control and the technology is degrading. R2 does quite a few cool things in Ep 3 that aren't within his capability in Ep 4.

They did clarify why 3PO didn't recognize Obi-Wan, though ... they left R2's memory intact, but it was probably damaged or degraded over the 20 years of mysterious goings on we don't know about that are poorly explained in the opening credits. Thinking ... didn't Obi-Wan say in Ep 4 he never owned droids? I don't think he got specific about having known any ...

Yes, I did think this through prior to this post. I am that much of a Star Wars Geek.

I don't have a lot of action figures, but I have other stuff ...

Original Darth Vader poster, plus the one from Empire with Vader and two Stormtroopers against a red background.

A set of Star Wars Sheets.

14" Darth Vader Action Figure.

Darth Vader Keychain.

Star Destroyer Keychain with light and sound action.

C3PO watch, still in blisterpack.

Star Wars Picture Disc, The Story of Star Wars.

LPs of Sountracks of Star Wars and Empire

Comic Book adaptations of Star Wars, Empire and Jedi.

Stuffed Watto that my boss' wife gave me

Novelizations of all the movies (still have to get the new one)

Amazing piles of other crap that I can't bring to mind just this minute.

Got an email this morning from CGNetworks (Computer Graphics) that talked about Revenge of the Sith.
Quote:
Let’s talk numbers: 2,151 visual effects shots. 185 digital characters. $300 million opening box-office growing to $500 million after the second weekend. 1,083 animation shots. A digital villain with 200 articulating joints and 4,591 NURBS surfaces. 375,040 frames delivered. 6,598,928 rendering hours total. 12,855,000 successful renders and comps. 375 CG models and environments. 47 practical models. A crew of 350. Could it be anything else but Star Wars: Episode III: Revenge of the Sith?
Damn.

It would be funny if some of those were more fragile than others. One only if hit at one particular point.
