I am 20. I was a Star Wars nerd as a kid, and still a huge fan. I went into this movie TRYING MY HARDEST to like it, and I still thought it was a complete waste of time. The only scene I liked was the "YOU WERE THE CHOSEN ONE!!!" scene...
Actually that throws out my theory really, which I'm glad of- I hate simplistic explanations like that.

Um Im 31 & thoroughly enjoyed the movie, as did all my friends (aged between 18 & 72) so I would argue that it's not a question of age but obvoiusly a sense of bitter disappointment....you didn't get to see the movie you wanted to see so obviously it sucks ass.....it's ok thats your opinion....just not one Im going to agree with or share
Uh, die-jarjar-die... if you were talking about MY opinion, then I didn't say "sucks ass" and, nothing personal, don't appreciate the generalization that I (or anyone for that matter) disliked the film because we "didn't get to see the movie you wanted to see so obviously it sucks ass".
I dislike the film (specifically ROTS I'm talking about now and not the other PT films) because- as someone who has watched 100s of different films, from experimental shorts to epic blockbusters, and has studied in depth the techniques of filmmaking- it is an extremely POORLY CRAFTED FILM, whether its 'Star Wars' or not... and trust me- I love some stupid movies that everyone else hates but at least they're well made. ROTS is poorly written, 80% poorly acted and terribly poorly written. I always watch films with both an eye for 'pure enjoyment' and with a 'technical craftsmanship' eye- and ROTS blinded the latter.
