: Just kidding, I shouldn't call you morons for liking a movie I think is about the worst thing ever committed to film- excuse me, I mean TAPE. To each his (or her) own I suppose. Have fun with your new DVD!

C'mon! It's the best Star Wars film Lucas has made in the last five years! (an obvious dig at Episode I).
While Lucas doesn't seem to have the same touch for humor he did with the original series (I mean, whatever happened to that great Han Solo/Lea banter?), visual and sound wise it's a beautiful picture.
The C3PO jokes "What a drag" and "I'm beside myself" are really, really corny, though, and a perfect example of how Lucas has lost his sense of humor.
By the way, how many times did a character in Episode I say "You assume too much."
