Doc:

Blue on Blue is an official American military doctrinal term for friendly fire incidents. "Good guy attacks good guy."

I wonder at the coincidence, Obi Wan and Darth, what with the "if you are not with me, you are my enemy" and "That 's the way democracy ends, to thunderous applause" and a few hundred other allegedly coy references. George, hit me with a sledge hammer, I don't get it yet. Are you just pissed due to common first names?

The only saving grace is that Episode IV had already established that, like the Roman Empire, the Empire evolved from a Republic (not a democracy) by a Senate giving to a dictator (a general in Rome, a Chancellor -- aka Hitler-- in SW) too much latitude.

Beyond that, Star Wars Episode 3 established, for all time, that

1. Yoda knows how to make an entrance.

2. Hayden Christensen is not an actor, but he stayed at a Holiday Inn Express last night.

3. Natalie Portman should have been replaced by a CGI wench. No acting required. And, no Jar Jar if GL would have done his CGI on a wench.

4. George Lucas needs to leave the country. Charge? Felonious negligence. Evidence? Jar Jar was not killed and horribly mangled for our entertainment, and to rub salt in the wound, Jar jar was still alive at the end of the film.

5. George Lucas doesn't "get" combat above a 3 v 3.

6. As soon as a Princess gives birth to twins, she loses the will to live. Nice Post Portman Depression, George. I'll have salza on my psycho babble.

7. Obi Wan was finally able to kick a bit of arse. Huzzah.

8. Ewan McGregor needs a back brace, having carried three films on his back.

9. I am glad it is over.
