Anyone else worried about knowing SO MUCH ?

With May arriving pretty fast..I'm starting to worry a little bit about if knowing so many things will ruin or not my ROTS experience...

Actually, I'm a "Padme fan" and wanted to know everything about her role, her demise etc....so I did not pay attention to the details like who the hell is Grevious and what does he do in the movie, and stuff like that.

I know the basic story, Palpatine/Anakin dialogue etc...and saw that pic recently of Padme's face in her coffin- which I sooo did not wanted to see.... 😮

Actually I knew pretty much the whole story of AOTC, and I don't recall anything negative about being spoiled, I actually had downloaded the end of the movie on Kazaa and watched a little bit of the Arena scene just a few hours before going to the theatre LOL

How about you, do you think it will ruin your experience being so spoiled ?

I worry a little about it... but in the end, if the movie's good, you'll just be excited to actually see it play out. So it may spoil your initial experience, but after that, it won't really matter"

Ive managed to stay away from both the graphic novel (comic) and the book excerpts thus far. I don't want to know that much because I know it would take something away from the movie for me.

I think everyone knows the basic structure of the movie. We can't get away from that but it's all the small bits I've managed to remain ignorant to that are going to blow me away.

exactly what ive done. All these comic strip extracts floating around are too much for me. and im becoming frustrated with some peoples lack of spoiler tags too 😠

Yes, your point is very good spitweety. I never knew so much about a film before it's release so i wouldn't know how it is but i do not hope it's like watching a DVD for the second time, i know too much so i restrict myself from spoilers and only talk on topics like this. I just hope i can hold on 1,5 month doing that 🙂

I just hope we haven't seen all the best bits, and are now just waiting for the crappy bits to fill it in.

Yes indeed, but maybe it's also cool to see the word and pictures together into real movieshots

I'm worried as well.

I'm hoping Lucas has kept one pivotal scene tightly close to his chest.

I'm thinking mech Vader, red saber in hand, finishing off the remnants of the Jedi Order and bringing the Jedi Temple to the ground.

Oh I am the king of wishful thinking.

Indeed, given that Pabs has said there is no suited Vader action Red. 🙁

i am really not that worried, I think we all know the basis of what is going to happen.

Im not worried in the slightest. I went in to TPM and AOTC with the same level of spoilers and it didnt affect my enjoyment one bit. I went into TPM after listening to the audio book. It ment that when i saw the film, i had a better understanding of what was going on (eg political scenes which if i remember right were explained in depth in the book) and improved it for me if anything. The audio book can outline the entire story for you, but it can give a sence of the visual experience.

For AOTC, i went in having read the graphic novel. Again, it didnt spoil my enjoyment. It gave a sence of of how every thing would look, but no sence of timing or feeling.

Same applies here. It hasnt spoiled the plot for me because it was already preatty obvious what would happen. Besides, in the prequels, there arnt any major plot suprises and you can easily see what is coming up when you watch the film.

Im certain i'll enjoy the film just as much from the spoilers as going without.

after finding out how dark the movie is, it kind of made me think, do I really want to see this? I've grown quite fond of a lot of people who are killed in the movie.

Red Superfly, change your m*therf*cking Avatar and Tagline right now.
You stupid moron! Act normal!!!

I want to know everything possible, because I like to make films. I have an idea in my mind how things are going to work, and I'm anxious to see how George Lucas will do it.
I read the book for AOTC, and the movie was a lot better for me.

Well, I'm with Jp on this one ( i know you, are all shocked right? 😆 ) . Any new pics I want but no graphic novel or audiobook for me. And from what I understand from friends who have listened to the audiobook there ARE still some surprises to be seen....

Its almost April. If you havent made a conscious decision to either soak up every piece of info you can (like me), or stay the heck away from anything that even remotely looks like a spoiler, then I have no pity for you, you fickle bastards.

😆

I like spoilers though...
Besides how else would we make pointless threads and argue over who's better than who over the net
