I haven't seen it yet, either. I think it was a few weeks before I got around to seeing Clones.

It may come as a shock to some of you yung 'uns, but there will come a point in your lives -- assuming you get lives -- when you may not be so eager to waste hours of your life (to say nothing of your hard-earned cash), fighting traffic, standing in line, sitting in a crowded theatre with a bunch of annoying people you'd like to kill, cringing through loud, obnoxious trailers for incredibly shitty movies, then in the end wind up not being all that impressed with the main feature -- or worse, actually hating it.

I'll see it through to the end, and I can only hope my impressions of the last two installments have lowered my expectations (I don't think it's possible), but I have this sneaking premonition I will be doing everything I can, having seen them, to cleanse myself of the prequels once and for all -- finally tearing open the shrink wrap on my original cut, pre-tinkered-with original trilogy and praying to Lucifer that the tapes never wear through.

At least some critics have praised it (Sith), albeit faintly. Jabba -- I mean, Roger Ebert -- liked it. Maybe I'll close early today and rush out, just to ensure you, robthehand, are indeed the last to see it.

Balderdash!

I haven't seen it yet either. I'm in no rush. The excitement of Star Wars has waned a lot over the years and this time I have been "Star Wars'ed" out by all the hype over ROTS. So I'll see it in my own sweet merry time.

I think that the movie has actually been prostituted out as far as quality merchasndising (or lack of it) goes because there is some utter garbage out there on the store shelves.

I also haven't seen it. I'll wait until all the hype dies down so I can watch it in relative quiet. Why people have the incessant need to talk during films I'll never understand. It's infuriating is all I can say.

Now War of the Worlds I'll probably see opening day.

I went to the first show opening day and the theater was half full and the audience was very quiet during it, except for the occasional bit of laughter.

Matinees seem to be a bit quieter. Evening shows bring out rather noisy teenagers who think their partying ideology extends to public theatres- at least up here in Toronto.

I have not seen it yet. And I have not seen Terminal too.

Working 6 days per week, it is so hard to find the time to go to the cinema for me for the moment...
