New Ep III Music vid (spoilers?)

HOLY FUCK THAT IS AWESOME..........

Shit. Now, well, I can truly say I am *so* totally expecting Episode III to be the pinnacle of the prequels...

EDIT: Spoiler warning in the title maybe? (Yes, I know it's an EIII music video, with spoilers somewhat strongly implied by that very fact, but still...)

Yeah, if someone wants to add spoiler tags to the thread title.(Be my guest.)

In the scene where the fighters are skidding in a docking bay, is anyone else seeing a tailless type of Star Destroyer in the background?

Or is that how Venators look from that angle normally?

You know, the way I see it, at this point in the game if it is in release then it shouldn't be considered a spoiler. That's like bitching about TV ads that give away too much. As much of a spoiler nazi as I've been I don't consider ads or music videos to be spoiler material. Its when you reveal certain aspects of the plot that it gets to that level. Ie. Well you KNOW Obi Wan kills Anakin and he comes back as a clone. THAT would be a spoiler. Seeing Anakin dueling Dooku would not be since oit does not show a result or hint at anything other than it looks like a much better duel than the one we've seen in AOTC.

For instance much of that video used scenes we've already seen in the trailer and the teasers. Any extra scenes deal with visuals that IMHO don't spoil the general plot. So unless you're completely spoiler free in the sense that you've never seen the trailers and such then first of all hats off to you and secondly why would you click on this thread in the first place?

Also, it looks like Obi Wan is an even BIGGER ass kicker than he's been in TPM and AOTC. Is he immune to the darkside shroud or something because he's only becoming a bigger asskicker as time goes on. Check out that flipping attack from a skidding starship and check out his form in the Anakin duel. WOW. I've always felt that the prequels have painted Obi Wan as the far bigger and better hero than Anakin. Tell the truth - which would be the bigger tragedy in your mind. Anakin falling or Obi Wan falling? I know who I would feel for more and whom I would consider a true hero falling - Obi Wan. For me it is one of the biggest weaknesses of the prequel era.

I think that's about it. However, it looks suspiciously like a Victory with a Venator bridge... but I wouldn't put money on that assessment.

EDIT: Straha-- the reason I suggested a spoiler tag was because Badme, on the chat, told me he'd even missed the trailers and wanted to remain *that* much spoiler-free. While it's pretty much visuals, it *did* introduce a few notable new bits of the movie to me (ie, did anybody notice that Anakin used his organic hand when in the Force-arm-wrestling bit with Obi-wan?). I suppose the spoiler tag's not really necessary, but I reckoned it'd just make that obvious as it wasn't immediately apparent from the original title...

Um, that's Stravo, Elharu, not Straha.

If he is that spoiler free why would he click on a link leading to a music video specifically about Ep. III? It seems pretty redundent in a thread like this one.

And if you ever confuse me with Straha again I'll castrate you.

D'oh!

Sorry, Straha was on the chat and he and I were discussing in passing Episode III... and you two both are in NY... or something...
