We WILL be. 😈
Anakin turning, massacre of Jedis...pain and suffering...aren't they what you'd call...tragedies
Lucas is taking a big risk because he's counting on us liking Anakin. From what I've seen in the trailers I don't think a lot of people will. I think most people will be on Obi-Wans side.
KJ, I believe that arguing is futile. I say that we just drop it and then laugh when we're right.
I still think it will seem tragic enough. And I think I will understand Anakin's plight, too.
In the end, the bad guys win- heralding a two decade period of pain, suffering and misery- because of mistakes, arrogance and treachery amongst the good guys. I think that fulfils the definition of tragedy.
Personally, I'll be unhappy to see the Jedi order be destroyed, actually.
As I read something on another thread...Leia in ROTJ said of her real mother "she died when I was very young" but she remembers certain feelings about her mother being "beautiful and kind, but sad." Which means Padme must've died when Leia was about at least 4 years old, otherwise Leia wouldn't be able to remember anything before that age.
...and as far as I read in certain articles around the net, EPIII is said to end with the birth of Luke and Leia...
Re: Padme has to die in Ep3!!!!!
She will have to die... However, she will go out in a blaze of glory for her people, solidifying the kick-ass female hero...just like Lea was! History always repeats itself when it comes to the target audiences for money-hungry producers.

The update at the official site hints that Padme hid on Alderaan after Anakin turned. If this does happen then I think it would ruin the whole PT story for me. She has to die in Ep3.Lucas says Ep3 is a tragedy. That means we're meant to feel sad. What happens in Ep3 that's going to be tragic for us? Nothing.
Anakin turning - Anakin is going to be very cocky and arogant and so we might not like him anyway. When he fights Obi-Wan most people will be cheering for Obi-Wan to beat him so when he does it won't be that sad. Plus we know that Anakin is eventually saved in ROTJ.
The Jedi - We'll see a lot of Jedi die but will we really care? Yoda doesn't die and Obi-Wan doesn't die so is seeing a bunch of Jedi, who we don't know, die going to be sad? I don't think so. We'll probably be loving it when Mace and whoever else bite the dust.
Obi-Wan and Yoda - These two are probably going to be seen going into hiding and it might be a bit sad but we know they come back. It's not like we never see them again!
So when Anakin turns is it really going to be that bad? Not if Padme just goes into hiding. But if she dies then THAT would be tragic because we know she isn't coming back. Luke and Leia can't save her because she's dead.
Anakin turns and as a result Padme dies. That's sad.Ep3 is meant to be a tragedy and a sad film. What's sadder than seeing one of the main characters die? We haven't seen a main character die in Star Wars because when they do we know that one way or another they come back. Apart from Owen and Beru and the way things are going that could end up being the saddest moment in the whole saga.🙄 That would be tragic.
