Yes, everything exploding and ships blowing up was just the start of things... ๐
The focus of the space fight was on Obi-Wan and Anakin on Grievous' flagship. There wasn't a Death Star to destroy or a super weapon to stop...
The first was to show Palpatine's skill. Mace was lucky Palpatine didn't want to ice him right away, or it would have been a much faster duel. And that would lead to the Palpatine faking argument, which I've stated a million times.
The second...Palpatine was on the brink of attaining his goal, but was on the brink of getting killed too. He was taking risks. It shows.
There were several WTF moments for me, due mostly to the fact that I was extremely spoiled going into the movie and had sky high expectations:
1. Shortness of the space battle, Kashyyyk battle, dooku duel, and pretty much every duel was shorter than I expected ๐
2. Almost no footage of the raid on the Jedi Temple. I mean, we don't see Anakin fighting actual Jedi. ๐
3. Mace's posse going down in 5 seconds. This part was hyped in the trailer, and was like WTF in the movie ๐คจ
4. GENERAL GRIEVOUS!!! I have said why before, I don't feel like explaining it. Basically, a character who was an otherworldy, creepy, badass Jedi hunter turned out to be a cheap, slimy prankster like the kid from Home Alone. Sorry if I offend any Grievous fans, but he annoys me as much as Jar Jar in some scenes. ๐ ๐
Overall, I enjoyed the movie, I was just disappointed after the first couple of viewings.
