Star Wars Spoilers

All the good guys die - except Yoda, Obi-Wan and Bail Organa. However, rumor has it that Organa will die early on in Episode IV.

Mace Windu goes out like a punk.

In a riveting and highly emotional scene, Hayden Christensen again displays his total lack of acting skills.

Tired of his incessant nagging, R2D2 finally tells C3PO what he really thinks by letting loose with a string of expletives that would make a bounty hunter blush. However it's a series of bleeps and whistles so the only ones who understand are C3PO — and a handful of Star Wars fans, with too much time on their hands, who have spent it "translating" the droid language.

In one of the final scenes, as Yoda is about to be delivered to Dagobah via escape pod, he and Obi-Wan have a brief discussion about their differences of opinion on Anakin in Episode I. Obi-Wan admits Yoda's original opinion was correct then adds, "But don't say it." Yoda replies with, "Say it I will. Told you so I did."

Badly burned and maimed by the end of Episode III, Anakin now has to wear a full body suit. It has a control panel to regulate his breathing and includes a pager so he can call the Emperor to pick him up when he's done playing at the video arcade.

With the birth of the Empire, the galaxy is plunged into years of darkness and despair. When word reaches the galaxy that George W. Bush has also been re-elected, almost half the population begins to wonder if there will ever be a new hope.

Episode III will be one of the better sequels and won't suck as much as The Phantom Menace. However, it may be worth noting, if George Lucas took a crap and called it a Star Wars sequel it wouldn't stink as bad as The Phantom Menace — so there you go.
