First time I saw the movie I fell asleep at some point during the Obi-Wan/Grievous grudge match. I never fall asleep during movies--theaters are too expensive to use as siesta parlors--but there was something hypnotic about the twirling colors and buzzing sounds that conveyed absolutely no information or emotion.

Brilliant. :)

My problem with Syth isn't so much the light show but the way the plot drones on and on from one boring idea to another with a seemingly endless number insultingly-condescending transition scenes telling us where our minds should be at every moment as if we actually cared about the obnoxious story inolving a war between digitized clones, digitized wookies, and digitized robots that offer us nothing to emotionally invest ourselves in since it's rapidly edited within a moral dilemma that is so mind-numbingly contradictory and absurd that we want it to end quickly so the movie can shift onto something enjoyable and yet the dilemma doesn't seem to end until we're thuroughly disgusted with it to the point where we could care less and the only relief is that this is when the movie finally ends.

Obiwan is only character in the film that I can care about and that's not enough to keep my interest going. Initially I liked the care and love displayed between Anakin and Padme, but I refuse to let my brain accept the illogical choice that tortures Anakin, since he would have had to have been a psychopath for it to have led to what he did, and that causes any of the sweetness in the earlier scenes to go sour.
