Did you feel an urge to watch Ep 4 and 6 after seeing Ep3?
You can say Ep5 is still better than Ep3; however, I really got into Ep3. One becasue of its emotional intensity, two its very clear resonance with our current affair.

Major Spoiler..

Ok, I did not like Hayden Christiansen in Ep2. Well, he was very attractive in various levels in Ep3. Hey, he is very sexy and look what happened to him. He was not only lost to darkside. He became severely deformed!! I don't recall any movie in which the main attractive character deformed and punished this much in the movie. This is way I like Ep3 so much. Now I see Ep4 and 6 very differently.

Remember, in Ep4, Darth Vader tried to choke one of the guy at Death Star? Before, I saw it as the sign of Darth Vader's evilness and cruelty and so on. Now I see his 'humiliated feeling' at the same time. Darth Vader in Ep6 now sounds definitely very very different...
And there are lots of parallels between Ep3 and Ep6...

3. Yes, but for a different reason
The only remaining questions I have are:

who are the relatives who raised Luke? Was this Padme's sister, or brother? Or? And which episode describes this?

4. Episode II Attack of The Clones
His mother got married to a man who bought her out of slavery. That was Anakin's stepbrother and (at the time) his stepbrother's girlfriend you were introduced to. In Episode III, they were married. Owen and Beru.

8. Actully, that's the next thing I want to do ...
But, I have a problem. I want to see Ep3 again. I saw it twice before my husband saw any. He was annoyed since he is the major Star Wars geek of our house. I did not feel this way neither Ep1 and 2 nor old trilogy.

I really liked Ep3 for some reason...This is first time, I really wanted to see again right after I saw for the first time.

I am not saying Ep3 is the best of all. What I am saying is I really liked it for some reason... Did anyone feel the same way?

6. I felt the same way
I thought this movie was the best of the new trilogy; I also liked Hayden Christiansen MUCH better than in the second episode. Then he seemed so wooden, right out of the Keanu Reeves school of acting but he was much better this time around AND he looked pretty buff too! There seemed to be a lot of foreshadowing- just the clothes he wore (black) seemed to indicate that he was going to turn to the dark side. Of course we already knew that but still.

I wanted to watch Star Wars again just to see if everything was like I remembered.
