still no list for other countries, though I bet I'm last in line again ;rolleyes:

Excellent 💃

Yep. I orginally heard that it was supposed to be released on May 25th 2005 from countingdown.com, but now finding out that I have about 1 less week to wait, has made my day!

I am grabing my Hasbro light saber and going to wait in line for tickes now.

I live in New Zealand so if it's an international release date like AOTC was I'll get to see it before all you Americans!!! HAHAHAHA *cough*

The dude from New Zeland is a lucky man.

it kind of upsets me that it's been pushed up. i'd rather have it released later rather than sooner. my arguement is that just about every complaint about star wars movies released since 1997 have to do with lucasfilm being rushed for time.

im excited that its pushed up.....but if it were coming out on the 25th as planned....it wouldve been the 28th or anniversary of STAR WARS in 1977...oh, well.....im pumped for this flick......plus....im getting the original trilogy on dvd in september and then when I get ep. 3, i'll have the whole story mwahahahahaha

I really dont have any complaints with any of the movies except that the pod race in Episode 1 was way to long. I would have been cool also if we could have seen some of Anakin's trianing once yoda OK'd his training.Also a time warp would have been cool that led it closer to the events of the beginning of Episode 2. But that isnt GL's style I guess.
