Anything by Palpatine, though I have to say there were more quotable quotes in this film than the previous two.

I cannot hear the line "Are you threatening me Master Jedi." without saying it with him in my best Palpatine impression. Do it everytime the teasers come on and did it the movie. LOVE that line and it is all in the delivery.

I have to say that "Unlimited Power" sucked ass to me. I groaned the first time I heard it. It was like "Yes I am a cartoon villain worse than Doctor Doom or Lex Luthor."

So picture it. Your former master has just cut off your legs and remaining arm. You're sliding down a pit into lava, and you know you're done. Your former master stands above you. What do you say? Do you plead for mercy? No. You say the line that sent chills down my spine:

"I HATE YOU!"

That single line by Anakin affected me more than anything else in the movie.

The whole Patience line with Anakin was good, I also liked "I expected you to be taller General Grievous"

I've seen the movie twice and that scene got a laugh from the entire theater both times. Of course, both times were on opening day so it might've been a one-shot thing. But I laughed both times.

The Dark Side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities, some consider to be unnatural....
There is no emotion, there is peace,
there is no ignorance, there is knowledge,
there is no passion, there is serenity,
there is no death, there is the Force

Fear is the path to the Dark Side,
fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate...
hate leads to suffering

Battledroid sidesteps Jedi prisoners to hand Grievous the lightsabers and in a very sarcastic tone, "Excuse me." Grievous snatches the sabers away. "You're welcome." In the same sarcastic tone.

Either battledroids are sentient constructs, or the CIS went to some pretty elaborate and unnecessary lengths to program their remote control units.

Oh, and everyone in my house is sick of me going "No, no, no, NO!" like Palpatine. But he goes "YOU HAVE LOST!" afterwards, not 'you will die'. It's a retort to Windu going "you've lost."

"Master Skywalker, there are too many! What are we going to do?"

:?

It's right after Windu says, "It's over, you've lost." or something to that effect.

Shit, I guess I gotta see it again. :P

"Are you threatening me master Jedi?" When I first saw that in the trailer I thought it was awesome.

On seeing it on the big screen. It is more awesome than I had hoped.

I have to say, most of the lines spoken by Ian McDiarmid and Yoda were colorful and full of character. Many of the other lines spoken by other characters tended to be slightly more bland and blasé. Christensen has his share of good lines, as well. I loved his facial expressions when he has that slight evil twinkle in his eyes when he was talking with Padmé on Mustafar.

"Unlimited power!"

I wouldn't call that look in his eyes one of evil- more like a sort of twisted, euphoric with power, love of some sort. He's saying utterly crazy things but to him it sounds perfectly reasonable.

Oh yeah ... "I have waited a long time for this, my little, green, friend."

I think I saw someone quote this one. It's more of the scene, because when TPM came out, when I still wrote on *shivers* supershadow.com, I called this fucking scene out right here. In fact I said this is how the only trailer should look.

Jedi council room, filled with scared hiding younglings. The door slides open and a cloaked figure walks in.
Youngling:Master Skywalker, there's too many of them. Whatever shall we do?

Are you threatening me master Jedi?

Good is a point of view

Have you ever heard of the tragedy of Darth Plagueis the wise?

I can feel your anger. It gives you focus.

Do not hesitate. Show no mercy.

UNLIMITED POWER!






Allright, I'm a Palpatine-whore. So sue me :roll:
