Yep folks, if you like Star Wars apparently you are up your own arse,
you heard it here first. I like Star Wars, I am not fanatical and I
can see why people might not like it, I couldn't give a shit if people
don't like it, i enjoy it.
you ignored my point that the original post was aimed at Star Wars fans
and more specifically people who own the DVD of SW EPIII ROTS, that you
didn't know what it was about meant that it wasn't directed at you and
so whether you know it was Star Wars or not is neither here nor there.
to have to state the whole name of the film or any film for the benefit
of people who couldn't answer his query or are like you, not at all
interested in the film, DVD,or his post is well...pointless.
How many LOTR posts have there been, its not the name of the film but
it became a recognizeable reference to it because people came to
recognise it as such. In the way that Episode III has become a moniker
for the latest Star Wars film.

Yes but it is the third part chronologically

Utter tosh mate, no offence meant but no SW...Sorry "Star Wars" fan
cares whether you like it or not, they aren't Christians, they haven't
got an inherant need to convert you to their beliefs or anything.
There are weirdos associated with every popular franchise.

No, I don't think the Die Hard series was broken into films referred to
as "Episodes" they were just Die Hard 1, 2 and 3 with subnames like Die
harder and with a vengeance so not a valid example really.
But as you say, what the hey, it's Friday, sit back, crack open a can
and stick in a film you do like
