@Mavrick what the hell? Stop stretching my screen. If it's this bad on a 1080p screen, lower resolution users must be losing their freaking minds in rage.
Watch one at a time? Or one and never watch the other?

Which now brings to mind...

So after he is removed, the Senate then votes her own senator in as the new Chancellor.

How the heck is that even fair? Wouldn't the Senate have voted in someone shall we say...

"more neutral"?

But instead they elect one of the disputed parties senator as Chancellor.

Why would they do that? Or am I missing something here?

IIRC, "it will generate a strong sympathy vote." Let's back up a bit and we know that Valorum is accused of "baseless accusations of corruption," which has hindered his strength, but he was also Naboo's strongest supporter in Amidala's words. So assume that the sympathy vote combined with the strong support but lacking the accusations of corruption are enough to tip it to their side. Doesn't sound all that inconceivable.

Speaking of Valorum, I'd like to see the scene of him confronting Palpatine....

What browser are you using? Mavrick didn't line return between IMG tags so IE9 put them all next to eachother horizontally instead of one underneath the other. As such, stretchy strechy.

I'm using Firefox. That would be why they are one under the other on my screen.

As stated earlier. I thought the AQ for Episode 1 & 2 were overdone but it was fantastic, especially during battle scenes with the lightsabers. However, once you pop in #3. You'll notice a huge difference in sound that's toned down from the 1st battle scene all the way through the entire movie.

At first, I thought it was my speakers. I stopped Episode 3, and put in #2 real quick to play a battle scene. Noticed that the AQ was far superb from #3. So I went back and sucked it up and watched the rest of #3. At times, it felt I watching, or should I say hearing it through TV speakers.

While we're posting pics out of context...
It looks like there should be a younger Carrie Fisher directly behind her, strangling her with a chain.

I'm using the latest Firefox (with a 3rd party script blocker, I'll add), and at first they were side-by-side, but I happened to be back on that page reviewing a few things and this time they were top-to-bottom. Weird. Maybe a bad page load last time I was on it, and I also happened to clear cache a few moments ago so maybe that had something to do with it, too.

Yep.

This is why I feel that #3 has a much better chance of being recalled than the DNRed #1

Thanks for posting this, I thought it was just me when I watched it last night. Episodes 1 & 2 had to lower the volume to 44 on my amp and I had to adjust the volume to 36 on Episode 3.

Mavrick fixed the issue by putting one IMG tag set per line.

Ah, got it. I didn't notice the last edited by, nor did I peak behind the curtains to check the tags.
