IMO, Grievous was soooo disappointing in the movie.
All of the artwork of him that was released before the movie made him seem so badass, tall, mysterious, creepy, and otherworldly.
Plus, the Clone Wars cartoons made him seem far more skilled than he appeared in the movie. In the cartoon, Grievous is a symbol of fear to the Jedi. In RotS, "he is a coward".
I was expecting GG to duel Obi-Wan or Anakin on the Confederacy ship, but instead he uses some cheap trick and flees like a coward.
But what we got in the movie was this hunched over, goofy, mischievious (sp?), cheap, slimy, pushover of a villain who has pneumonia, walks like a rooster, and acts like the kid from Home Alone.
Soooo much potential for an awesome villain, lost. That's my biggest problem with the movie. At least with Jar-Jar, you know he's meant to be an annoying retard. But Grievous is supposed to be a badass Jedi hunter and I don't buy it.

He realizes he has no other villian in SITH after Jango is dead and Dooku really wasn't a badass. They came up with some really cool villian, but couldn't develop him because he was running away and coughing. We had no reason to fear him....that's the biggest way they screwed up.
If he had been introduced as a badass in AOTC, episode III would have worked well.
its becouse it is a hero scene the good guys does always something good well if would be exactly then obi would be well DOOMED! i agree grievous dies so nobbish well a jedi shall not kill the enemy with a blaster and you have right it shall take almost 7 jedis to kill grievous and obi does not even get scared when grievous spins his light sabers on the begining of the battle its just so wierd and grievous got 4 lightsabers so obi would be a easy target for grievous
and when boba dies that is wierd oh i know hero luck! well i hate solo and he kills my favorite character I HATE SOLO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
!!!
I head the animators for RotS practiced on Yoda's movements by replacing the puppet Yoda in TPM with a digital one? This was only for a few scenes, but it made me wonder if they would edit all of Yoda's scenes.

It's an image worth pondering for a moment. Maybe, when you cut past the instrumental and songwriting virtuosity, the funny voices and characters, what is left is a man alone in his recording studio for days at a time.
