Oh, like there's any question whatsoever here. The movie that almost pulls off being great comes closest to said greatness with, once again, dear Obi-Wan saving the day and making the whole thing worthwhile. The blue-on-blue battle leading up to it ain't half bad, either (despite being a little long), but it's Ewan McGregor who makes it all work.
"You were the Chosen One. It was said that you would destroy the Sith, not join them! Bring balance to the Force, not leave it in darkness! You were my brother, Anakin! I loved you!"
And once again, when he picks up that lightsaber, the one that in mind is equated with Luke Skywalker on Tatooine, Dagobah, and Cloud City, it is a wonderful thing. Continuity was largely ignored in the PT, but this particular blue lightsaber (and Bail Organa's single line about Threepio's memory)? Well, those they got right. Oh, ROTS, you came so close...sigh...
( The questions... )
