GAH you bastard! YOu had to make us vote on THAT? Well Yoda definitely wins but that still doesn't do justice to the Costume Designer! I commend them on a job VERY well done!

My favorite scene would be any scene with Jango in it. Also, the Yoda lightsaber fight was pretty sweet.

close call, but yodas fighting has to be the winner, my jaw was almost touching the floor in that scene, he kicks arse. but amidalas wardrobes wasn't without it's charms, but i'm still trying to work out why she had to get all dressed up just to pack her clothes, it's crazy really, who apart from anikin and jaja saw her?

oh well.

I found Yoda's acting also FAR superior to that of Natalie Portman. Maybe they should digitalise her too in the next movie.

The coolest part was cut from the movie:

The scene where yoda is force stripping of padme's cloths before he jedi force ravages her...

Yoda enteres room:

:rhett:
Yoda: Babe you have become, yes Babe. Some hot loveing do you need.

:amidala:
Padme: Want to play Jedi master and naughty senator with me again.

Close up on yoda's face
:smirk2:
Yoda: Feel my force you will.

Clothes rip asunder and Yoda and Padme get it on while levitating around the room.

:rhett:
Yoda: Who's your Jedi! who's your Jedi!

---

Seriously though, the sonic detonators in the asteroid feild where the best, I antisipated the sound and they paused it just that little bit longer it had the same effect on me just like the antisipation you get before the drop on a roller coaster, it seams like an eternity away and then it just hits you, a great moment in the movie, I loved it.

LOL!!!! VERY FUNNY SCENE THERE SPARKY_FOX:D

My Favorite scene by far has to be yoda kicking some serious ***
As for Jango's bomb effect in the astroid field was awsome. The effect reminded me of a guitar noise when it exploded, very cool!!

Obi-Wan diving through that solid window! That rocked!:D

You gotta be a stiff as iron to do that kinda stuff, and as strong as an ox.
I think that whole chase scene rocked! Especially Obi. More bar-arm severage!
(Heh, I remember watching ANH, and thinking: "He really enjoyed that!" when everyone looks at the arm, him and the saber, before pretending they didn't just see an old wan thrash a couple of murderers.;))

I thought the movie was great, but all the stuff on Courascant was breathtaking -we get to see more of what the planet can look like, the weather, etc. (Nice fog!)

While hilariously funny, that is also oddly erotic...

That yoda/padme thing was just stupid, and whoever said that it was erotic...well pal, maybe one day you'll get a girlfriend/boyfriend (whichever), and sure the Yoda thing was pretty bad-ass, as were the seismic charges, and the only thing i liked about jango fett was when he was beheaded by mace windu(thank god there wont be a jango in ep3)....but no my friends, the best part of the movie had to be anakin and padme on tatooine after he killed the tusken raiders and he's saying how much he hates them and how he slaughtered not just the men, oh no.....but the women, and the children. They're animals and dammit, he slaughtered them like animals. That, my friends was the coolest part of the movie...such raw emotion. Yeah.

Too many great parts in the movie...Impossible to choose it is...Natalies costumes were very Nice...Yoda with his Karate Stance and saber fighting was Fantastic...I'm glad PB drummer brought up the Annakin/Padme Scene after he killed the Tuskan Raiders...That Line was delivered perfectly and you really saw Annakin take the first major step towards the dark side...Also let me throw in to the mix the part where you see all the Jedi taking out their Lightsabers in the arena and charging the droids, that was a great Battle scene.

What the bloody hell kind of poll is this? It's like making someone choose between steak or lobster! Me? I vote "Undecided". BTW, that Yoda/Padme thing was pretty disturbing...but kinda hot.

I don't like defending myself against people who can't tell when someone's joking, so...

Personally while I enjoyed the movie from an entertainment point of view, I found the movie generally dry, emotionally. Did you feel angry when Anakin's mother died? Did you cry when they buried her? Later on, did you feel the silent anger that is surely building up in Anakin? Did you feel touched or excited by the love story between Anakin and Padme? Did you go WOW during any of the saberfighting between ObiWan, Anakin and Count Dooku (at least Yoda managed to create some laughs)? Did you grip the arms of your seat during the spaceship pursuit? Did you feel sad when Boba lost his father? And the list goes on and on, plenty of interesting events that fail to create any emotions. I mean aren't we supposed to empathize with the characters in a movie (especially a epic like Star Wars)? Care about them and be concerned by what is happening to them?

I don't think the story or events are to blame here. There were plenty of moments that should have moved us. Maybe the script could have been better but it was really the directing and acting that were not up to par.

So my favorite scene has to be Yoda's arrival aboard the Republic Gunship. Saving the surviving Jedi and taking charge of the final battle. I actually had goose pumps and at the same time I was relieved that I was finally able to feel something once again.
