Monterey Geek claims to have seen REVENGE OF THE SITH

The "Screening room" we entered was really cool...like a mini "stadium theater" ..COMPLETE WITH DRINKS HOLDERS!!!, TRAY HOLDERS FOR FOOD, AND AN EXTENSIVE CAFETIRIRA RIGHT NEXT DOOR!! (Ok I know thats a minor fucking point!..but HEY its the "Little things" right?)....Well I am sitting there..and clasping my Girl friends hand so tight...that the sucker was really really really gonna fall off!..AND THEN...AND THEN...IN THE SCREEN IN FRONT OF ME IT HAPPENED!!

IT HAPPENED (AND NO ONE IS FUCKING GONNA BELIEVE ME! HA! OH WELL...."FUCKEM'! HA!)...I was watching...the opeing crawl for .................EPISODE 3: REVENGE OF THE SITH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Soooooooooooooo after I caught my breath.....and that took A LONG FUCKIN TIME! ..On the screen in front of me..was maybe the GREATEST SPACE BATTLE, NOOOOOO FUCK THAT!, ONE OF "THE GREATEST BATTLES" EVER ON FILM!!!!...This thing will suck the air out of your lungs! ITS FUCKING FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!! ANYWAY, I'm not gonna be a dick and give away..all the goodies this will summarize, but NOT SPOIL 2 MAJOR RELEVELATIONS THAT LUCAS HAS KEPT VERY VERY VERY DEEPLY UNDER RAPS WE ARE TALKIN' "LUKE I AM YOUR FATHER" KIND OF REVELATIONS ABOUT 2/3 OF THE WAY THROUGH AND....AND AT THE VERY END! THESE REVELATIONS INVOLVE A CHARACTER WHO I THINK HAS BEEN THE BEST THING ABOUT THE PREQUELS...And he explains EVERYTHING!! AND I DO MEAN "EVERYTHING" FROM WHY ANAKIN WILL "NOT" BE THE "CHOSEN ONE", TO SIDIOUS'S EVENTUAL DEMISE YEARS LATER, TO HOW LUKE BEFRIENDS HAN SOLO, CHEWBACCA, WHY THE DROIDS MEMORIES MUST BE ERASED..YOU FUCKING NAME IT!!!!!!!!!!...Anyway (WHEW I am WORN OUT MANNNNNNNNNN!!!).. during the battle to rescue Palpatine. Obi-Wan's Ship is badly damaged..thats when these little "nano-droid" type things come out and start repairing his ship( I had an accident last week..where the fuck were these things then? HA)....So...Anakin is able to locate the Fed Cruiser where Palpatine is being held captive...and Obi-wan tells him to go on ahead...THE SCENE WHERE ANAKIN PUNCHS A HOLE THROUGH THE FED CRUISER...AND LANDS LIKE NO BIG DEAL GAVE ME WOOD LIKE YOU WOULD NOT BELIEVE!....Ok sooooo after he jumps out of the cockpit...he encounters what seems like 100s and 100s of battle droids, and super battle droids, drokiekas YOU FUCKING NAME IT!...And if you thought that Jedi battle in the arena at the end of ATOC was impressive..wait till you fucking see this! ..OH MY GODDDDDDDDDD!....They truly make Anakin "Super-human" in this one..the way he hacks through those droids..it makes any other Jedi-battle with droids, or non Jedi..look silly in comparison!!!!!!!...so when he finally gets to the bridge to face "Dooku", before the battle begins...Dooku.. atempts to tell Anakin something.....that will be VERY IMPORTANT LATER ON!!!...But before he can fucking say a thing...Anakin whips out his light sabre in a fit of rage and comes full steam at Dooku...mean while Palpatine is sitting there...strangely calm, and strangely reminscent of "Return of the Jedi" when he tried to convert Luke to the Darkside....he even eggs Anakin on by telling him to "Strike Dooku down..quiclky"..and that he should he give himself over to "His feelings"...Well..Long story short...Obi-Wan makes a late entrance, and Gets into the light Sabre duel against Dooku...Now this sequence looks ALOT better than the last time these 3 fought in ATOC....I mean, it really really looks like Chistopher Lee, and not some cut and paste CGI deal..don't get me wrong..I loved ATOC .but this entire light sabre duel (The 1st of many MANY MANY Light sabre fight is incredable!)...Obi-wan gets a "force wave" from Dooku and gets knocked out....the whole time Palpatine has a truely EVIL look on his face...Esp when he utters "STRIKE HIM DOWN!!!" GODDDDDDDDDDDD THAT was GREAT!

I'm gonna finish this up a little quicker..and get to SOME MAJOR HIGHLIGHTS!!! Because my ass at wk..and I wanted to beat ANYONE ELSE to the punch with this MAJOR SCOOP!

The General Grievous vs Obi-wan fight Uppppppppppppps the Ante through the roof as far as light sabre duels........this one bad bad bad Mother-fucker! Obi-Wan takes him down...and with his dying last few wds..he tells Obi-Wan that Palaptine is behind the whole thing....Obi-Wan gets wd to the Jedi-Council and Mace Windu and 3 other Jedi are dispatched to bring him in....BAMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!! Ok the 1st 2 light sabre duels are like big time warm ups for this fight between Mace and Palpatine....(This film is DEF a PG-13 FILM NO QUESTION!!!) The look on Palatine's face when morphs into Sidious as attacks the Jedi will gloriously haunt my nightmare for YEARS TO COME ! I mean...its some SCARY ASS SHIT He KILLS THE OTHER 3 JEDI.....(umm That is, Decapates 2 and badly mutilates another!! GREAT!...but theres really no blood....its just the way he kills them..SHOCKING! His speed and dexiterity with a light sabre HAS to be CGI-Enhanced, but who gives a shit! When Palaptine tells Mace that the Jedi's days are OVER..it sent chills up my SPINE!...Anakin crashes in and Sidious morphs IMED back to Palpatine, and gives Anakin the big Sob Story about how he's been wronged by Windu and the Jedi Council...and..ANAKIN BUYS IT TO OUR DELIGHT!....The Mace Windu Death sequence? AMAZING!!!!! thats all I will say about that!

WHEW! Ok my mind, and body are still trying to comprehend all this!!! LOL..Soooo after Palaptine and Anakin off Mace....Palpatine tells Anakin about The Jedi are weak, and corrupted from within and how "EVERY Jedi is an enemy of the Republic!!!" He sends him on an eron to Kill EVERYONE! (and this is some dark dark stufff..and THEY ACTUALLY SHOW IT!!!!) THEY SHOW ANAKIN OFFING EVERYONE, WITH THE AIDE OF SOME "CLONE TROOPERS" From then on, we see different Jedi being diposed of in a multitude of different ways!! Heads will roll, arms will be severed, legs will be lopped off! INCREDABLE!!!!

Palaptine eventually dispatches Anakin to tie up ALL lose ends with the "Trade Federation" including The Viceroy and his cronies, Cutting to the chase!!! HA!!! When Yoda, and Obi-wan return to the temple and see it wiped out..THIS IS WHEN THE CHRACTER I WAS TELLING YOU ABOUT MAKES HIS APPEARANCE...AND TELLS ABOUT HOW" SHIFTS IN THE FORCE..ARE NECESSARY, IF NOT UNPLEASANT...AND HE BEGINS TO TELL YODA AND OBI-WAN EVERYTHING THAT IS TO COME..INCLUDING ...THE BIRTH OF"DARTH VADER"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I know we all know this..but the way the this chracter tells it...well its just plain fucking SHAKESPEARE!!!!!!

Ok up to this point, we've only had 3 light sabre duels...but the PALPATINE VS YODA FIGHT...WELL ITS GONNA GO DOWN IN HISTORY AS THE KING OF MANO Y MANO!!! When Yoda confronts Sidious in his office.....the fight spills out into an empty Senate chamber, and its here that we really realize that there is NO Jedi alive ot dead that is a match for Sidious!!!! Yoda, puts up one helluva fucking fight...dodging flying senate pods, and holding his own with a light sabre...but with all those fucking Dark side force powers at Sidious's disposal...its NO FUCKING CONTEST! HA!! GAWWWWWWWWD I shot my load after this fight!!!

WHEW my ass is tired..I will conlude by saying that the Battle on the Wookie Homeword of Kasshack..could give Peter Jackson and his Weta team a run for their money!!!! The Anakin, Obi-Duel...is a little longer and sometimes not nearly as exciting as some of the earlier duels..BUT DON'T GET ME WRONG..IT RULES!!...The last few shots of Anakin and his badly burned and broken body are EVERY reason NOT to take someone under 10 to see this film!!! I STILL CAN'T BELIEVE EVERTHING THAT HAS HAPPENED OVER THE LAST 24 HOURS..I WOULD KEEP WRITING BUT MY ARM IS ABOUT TO FALL OFF!!!

LASTLY!!! I WILL ULTIMATELY SAY THAT LUCAS WILL, WILL (AND I DO MEAN "WILL" REDEEM HIMSELF WITH THIS MASTERPIECE...EVEN NATALIE PORTMAN RISES TO THE OCCASION IN HER FINAL REALLY HEARTBREAKING SCENES!!!) BUT PALPATINE V MACE WINDU STILL RULES!!!!! I WILL NOW PASS OUT!

WHEW! If you use this Harry....you can call me "The Well dressed man!"

Over and out from Monterey!!!

Everything about the film has been spoiled already, has it not? Anyone can "review" it at this point.

I think it was the fifteenth exclamation mark that convinced me this is genuine. Yeah, the fifteenth.

I bet you it was written by Harry himself.

Somehow I don’t think that is likely. However, I will say that I’ve been seeing "early reviews” that are pretty much stylistically identical to the above on AICN for years. To me there are only two explanations:

a) An effect reinforcing a cause: when submitting reviews, people tend to ape those they see on the site.
b) It’s the same person, or a group of similar minded people who write them (publicity agents working on behalf of the studios perhaps?).
post #6 of 35
Certainly more effective than 'invisotext' for keeping spoilers safe. i could not read that. Am i old?
post #7 of 35
That's false, and AICN has to know.
post #8 of 35
I read the first paragraph of utter bollocks written and then skipped on, and basically this review is more fake than Michael Jacksons face....

20 seconds of reading the huge EpIII spoilers thread here proves that if only with the scans of the Dark Horse comic adaptation which proves at least half of it wrong... the rest of the revelations in that thread also prove this guy is talking shit....

He pretty much says it, at the beggining.

Hey folks, Harry here with something fun as hell. I heard that there was a screening coming, but I heard it was 2 weeks to 2 and a half weeks away.
Funny, he left that WETA punchline in there after all he worships them, I can see it now....

"KING KONG HAS TO WIN every mothefuckin' Oscar!! It's a cinematic blowtorch to the senses, burning, exposing and finally annihilating each new noir drenched nerve-ending into another thrilling, ecstatic sensation"

Every time, someone gets the comic adaptation and writes a review pretending to have seen the films.
post #11 of 35
Qui-Gon Jinn shows up in the graphic novel and explains everything, down to Han and Chewbacca, to Yoda? Damn. I guess Devin's right -- light on story, heavy on the 86 page exposition scene. "And then they kiss, and only Artoo knows they're brother and sister, but he's like, "Cool," so he doesn't say anything..."

Fake.
post #13 of 35
I agree that it is fake.

It's as if someone was trying to hard to write in "fanboy."

No one older than 11 writes that poorly.
post #14 of 35
Wow, how many of these "reviews" start off with, Well, my Girlfriend, or nephew, or uncle, or "???" work in the "????" as a "????" give me a damn break. If this man get so truly sexualy excited watching a movie, he has some serious problems to work out.
post #15 of 35
I want to see this extensive cafetirira he speaks of in such emphatic tones.
post #16 of 35
Why is it, with the reviews on AICN, do they always feel this need to write such long winded stories about what they did the day they saw such and such movie? I know this review thankfully doesn't, but it seems like we have to hear "then Jack and I, who was my cousin on my mother's side decided to go to Johnny Joe's for one of their burgers. We then had a good burger and I remembered that I hadn't had one this good in years. Jack said we should probably get going and then we paid the bill and thanked the waitress and headed towards the theatre. When we got there, we saw some old friends of ours and we got into a big discussion about how Manga heavily influenced...."

Sorry...just ranting....but I just can't stand that!!!!!
post #17 of 35
One more thing: if this review is accurate, and he's like this, can you imagine what a 12 hour drive with him would be like?
post #18 of 35
I had some trouble understanding that review but i think he was saying he saw it at Skywalker ranch. I got to see last crusade at the screening room there back in the day and to get to the theatre you have to walk through a short passage that opens on closes like the guys closet in old boy. Each wall was a display case with stuff like the lightsabers and indys whip, fedora and grail journal. Very cool shit to see as an 8 or nine year old. I dont remember any cafeteria but I imagine that had the reviewer been through there he wouldnt have failed to mention it seeing as how it would have provided him with further sexual gratification and proof that he was where I think he said he was. But its fake anyways so forget it.

People LIKE the style of AICN's reviews. All the "this is what I did the morning of" stuff is part of the charm. And people LIKE all the geeky enthusiasm (read: exclamation points, creative masturbatory references) as well. There's a certain earnestness to AICN that is unique. Then again, it can become nauseating at times. That's why we have the ever-sarcastic CHUD! I have room in my diet for both.

The first thing that screams FAKE about this review for me is that Monterey Geek says he's seeing a completely finished version of the film.

The second thing was his description of the theater at Skywalker Ranch. Given his mention of the nearby cafeteria, he could only be talking about the Stag Theater located in the Tech Building and I don't recall it being a "mini-stadium style" theater with cup holders and tray tables, etc. It's a far, far classier and traditional theater. If I'm not mistaken, the only theater at the Ranch that could even remotely match his "mini-stadium style" theater description is the downstairs screening room at the Main House (seen in the EP1 documentary on the DVD), and that's nowhere near a cafeteria, IIRC. Just a very nice restaurant-style dining area there at the Main House.

Third, and most importantly, it was his use of HA! after every (HA!) single fucking (HA!) word (HA!) in (HA!) his (HA!) fake (HA!) review.

HA!
post #25 of 35
God dammit.

That's not a review (however "fake" it is); that's an ego stroke mixed in with a complete plot summary. Plus, more ellipses and exclamation points than...oh, fuck it. I give up. On the internet, all basic forms of writing style is lost.

Somebody send this kid a book. A real book.

Not meaning to be a pendantic dick but does that even follow the narrative of the story.... I mean surely they would have OB1 there as well to take out the old codger....

Anyways the review made my brain hurt far too much for its own good...
post #27 of 35
Obi-Wan is still dealing with Grievous when that happens.

I've never cared for the the histories before the reviews...they are so often just so damn annoying you want to scream "get to the bloody point!!!" Ah, maybe I'm just an old grouch -

The reviews are a scream though, I will grant them that - but this guy really needs some Ritalin(spelling ok?) and fast.

I've never actually gotten an erection, nor ejaculated for that matter, while watching a "Star Wars" film. Does this mean I'm not really a geek?

Nope. Unless if something dramatic happens to your wang while viewing a Star Wars flick, you're not a REAL fan. Gotta get yer midichlorian count up, ya know.

That review would be a good laugh if it didn't fuck up my H-scroll in this thread. Bastard.

"People LIKE the style of AICN's reviews."
Some people also like Uwe Boll movies.
This review is a complete phony, but even if it were'nt the horrible style alone is enough to convince me that anybody who writes like that is someone whose opinion is not worth a damn anyway.
I am still trying to wonder why people want to imitate a style as bad as Harrys is when he is in full geek mode.
The irony is that Harry can write decent prose when he can stop being a super geek and just be a reviewer. But that seems to be happening less and less.
Nick is right about people faking reviews based on comic books, but so much has been leaked you could do it just from the spoilers on the Internet alone.
post #32 of 35
This dingus is probably impressed by his upside-down reflection in a spoon. I'm excited about "Episode III," but dammit, I'm also rather thrilled by good grammar and spelling. I enjoy Chud because its journos can write clearly as well as enthusiastically about all forms of geekdom without devolving into a litany of incomprehensible blather.
post #33 of 35
"GAWWWWWWWWD I shot my load after this fight!!! "

What is this geek habit of getting hard-ons or cumming in ones pants when they see something they think is cool?

Fucking nasty.

It's bad enough these fat smelly fuckers do not know the proper use of soap, water and deodorant.

I blame Harry Knowles for that ridiculous review of "Blade 2."

The last thing the bastard would feel is a kick in the side and hitting the highway pavement at 85 mph.

Maybe he got the Ranch and ILM mixed up. ILM has an awful restaurant next door, and a Chinese restaurant across the street. And ILM has stadium style seating in the screening room and the theater. Of course, no spaz would ever be let near either property, let alone inside it.
