Has anyone noticed just how many commercials Darth Vader's been featured in recently? Let's see... A Dark Chocolate M&M's commercial, at least TWO different Burger King commercials, and a "Darth Dew Slurpee" commercial, just to name a few. Seriously, he's the Dark Lord of the Sith. Is he really THAT desperate? As for George Lucas, he has more money than he could possibly need and retains rights to all the aspects of Star Wars, why would he need to whore around his characters? One thing's for certain: It shows what side of the Force the corporations are on. That's right, the Dark Side.
P.S. Sorry I haven't been around Sheezy much (at all) recently; I've been busy with lots of other personal things. But please know that I am still alive. This is not my reanimated corpse posting this journal entry.

I agree with you when you say the ROTS merchandising is getting out of hand, but you gotta admit, it's where the real money from the movie is made.

It also dosnt help that Vader (as in the Black masked vader) was only in the movie for 5 moinutes in the end after anikian got burnt by the lava, and that James Earl Jones only says like 3 or 4 Lines in the WHOLE movie as him, and one is PATHETOCLY Bad. You'll know what it is when u see the movie.

Tho anyway, go see the movie, I saw it and was greatg, much better than the decent Ep II and Pitafu;y bad Ep I. It may actually be as good as Return of the jedi, which IMO was the weakest of the 3 Classic Star wars'
Qwazin Says:
Isn't it obvious? Episode I sucked, and Episode II was... well, it was ok, but not "Star Wars Ok". So... How do you get back your audience? You use the most famus/loved character from the old movies of course and put him in the movie, wich also gives Lucas a chance to sell some merchandize too. I would know, because that's exactly the reason why I'm gonna watch ROTS, Vader, I must confront Vader.
Oh, crap I DID quote Star Wars after all...

The Red Risky Says:
honestly i didnt mind Ep I and II they werent that bad apart from a few scenes which really piss me off (e.g. "everyone calling Armidala "Mlady" in the second one at the shitty attempts at romance [also in the second one]). I havent had a chance to see 3 yet but i really wanna go soon.
