Hello there!
Collection of all the promotional material I managed to find for the third and last installment of George Lucas' highly divisive Star Wars prequel trilogy, and personally speaking, my second favorite Star Wars film after the original. I didn't have any attachments to Phantom Menace nor Attack Of The Clones while growing up, because I don't recall anything about ever seeing them or even hearing about them back then.
But Revenge Of The Sith was a different story. I first remember seeing this billboard outside my middle school of this huge black metal man surrounded by fire and my interest in whatever this was advertising was peaked. I never managed to watch it in theaters, but my dad did end up buying me the DVD later on and I fell in love with this movie (even had a General Grevious toy at one point and everything). Which is funny looking back considering my thoughts on the previous two movies were much more critical by comparison since I was never attached to them. I'll admit I might be looking at Revenge Of The Sith through rose-tinted glasses a bit, but I think even among the people who despise the prequels, it is considered the better movie of the three. There are definitely a lot of flaws with it, but it doesn't stop me from enjoying it nonetheless. It was my introduction to the world of Star Wars and I'll always be grateful for that.
That being said, and SPOILERS for everyone who hasn't managed to see the Ahsoka show yet, glad to see Hayden Christensen back in Star Wars media (Kenobi counting as well). Always felt he was an underrated actor, but someone who also needed strong guidance, direction and writing to get a great performance out of him, which I think is where George Lucas failed him a little in that regard.
