Jeff at The Disemodied Brain has been thinking waaaay to much about Ep. III, and hase a few questions Revenge of the Sith should answer.
I'm not really sure the last movie should answer any of these questions he's raised, although I do know it will address the C3-PO/R2-D2 question. But it's the final sentence that bothers me:
If our own judgment isn't clouded by the thrill of seeing a new, "final" Star Wars film and Revenge doesn't provide some solid answers, Lucas may find himself facing the wrath of the fans.
Really? Says who? I'm guessing most people care about the movie being good and having that 'Star Wars' flavor that was missing from the other prequals. Why does it have to answer any of these questions? It's about the rise of Darth Vader and the Empire, not about how the Emperor and his clone army brutally repress the citizens living under their rule. In the end, its a movie. It will stand or fall based on its own merits. Demanding that the movie must answer a set of questions or be subject to the ire of fans strikes me as being, well, overly fanboyish.
Of course, TDB's tag line reads, "Taking sci-fi and fantasy far, far too seriously". Yeah, I agree with that.
