Colour me animated I’ve seen it twice now and I’m going to be honest – I really want to watch it again before writing this. I mean, I could, but it wouldn’t exactly be a first reaction style piece then would it. And at the end of the day, I’d be willing to bet a…

#4 – Top 50 Skywalker Saga Moments
“Unlimited Power” Revenge of the Sith I could have broken down my number four into three individual moments. But then again, all three individual elements happen within the space of five minutes in the heart of Revenge of the Sith and as far as I’m concerned, the scene is one of the greatest in Star…
#10 – Top 50 Skywalker Saga Moments
“You Were The Chosen One!” Revenge of the Sith We’re 40 moments down, with 10 to go as we enter the my top 10 Skywalker Saga moments – at least to date. I’d be astonished if this time next week, The Rise of Skywalker doesn’t introduce several additions in the premium tier of the great…

Palpatine’s Big Reveal Revenge of the Sith The Prequel Trilogy is Chancellor Palpatine’s trilogy. Sure, the three movies tell of the tragedy of Anakin Skywalker, but it’s Darth Sideous who is moving the chess pieces. He’s the one stacking the board against the Chosen One and after two and a half films, Anakin finally catches…

Jedi face Dooku Attack of the Clones I’m going to be honest here folks. I was really torn over which scene to post as my number 37 and in the end, the following 500 words or so are going to be the product of a cop out – I’ve basically clubbed two together as deciding…
