Simply The Best
I have seen Revenge Of The Sith twice. At this point I am thinking that, all things considered, Revenge Of The Sith may be the best of all the Star Wars movies. The first one was the most fun, and The Empire Strikes Back was the best made, and introduced us to the deeper mythological themes teeming in Lucas' mind. But for breadth of scope, emotional texture, action, mythology, and tragedy, Revenge Of The Sith is the magnum opus. It is the crescendo that all the movies either point toward, or look back to. And to end the Star Wars saga with the crescendo is great form. How often do you get that?

It was the best Wily One. Put some of your Orthodox musings on Neo and watch the fireworks.
