Yes it is. Seeing all those clones for the first time (and those Star Destroyers later on ) and the sudden jolt of dreadful knowledge of what they will ultimately end up being? George Lucas nailed that stuff. It really is watching the inevitable tragedy unfold and being powerless to stop it as much as you may want to. Oh, and I love the Kamino scenes.

Shoddy acting or not, the transformation into vader really worked fôr me and gave a whole new spirit to A new Hope... Especially the Obi Wan-Vader fight.

My favorite AOTC teaser was the Forbidden Love one, though the Breathing is awesome too. The final trailer is of course awesome. ROTS had an okay trailer. I loved the movie, but the trailers weren't on the same level. For one, there weren't as many. AOTC had trailers out the ying-yang. FOUR FREAKING TEASERS ALONE! And it's my favorite of the Prequels. The incredible imagination on display. Love, love, love, that nighttime Coruscant chase.

TPM teaser trailer was the most incredible thing I had ever seen!
I watched it on VHS in a loop. Lol

My favourite AOTC trailer is Mystery. The atmosphere is just chilling and palpable.

AOTC was by far my most memorable theatre experience.
I literally couldn't stand up afterwards, as I was so blown away by the sheer magnitude and magic I had just witnessed on the screen.
I can't even remember how many times I got goosebumps during the movie.

I do wish George had incorporated some of the deleted scenes with Padme/Anakin and her family into the movie, but it's still fantastic.
I love Obi Wan's detective story in it, and the Geonosis parts are just the thrill of a lifetime.
I love them all.

The ROTS trailer with the footage of the OT is pretty darn terrific I'd say.

Btw., is it just me, or do others also get goosebumps each and every time you see Shmi (and Qui Gon) standing on the "terrace", or stairway in front of her abode through an arch, and a flute is playing a beautiful melody, as well as when Anakin is in his pod, fires it up for the first time, and shouts: It's working! It's working!

Or do you guys have other "goosebumps" moments?

Do I need an iTunes account to watch it?

[Vader72]

I'm so damn tired from all the family and being up every hour or so. I'm getting loopy now. But so excited! Who need BlackFriday sales when this is all I could ever ask for.

Nope. You don't even need iTunes. If you're on iPhone or any Apple device you can watch directly. But if you're on Windows computer you'll need at least Quicktime player installed to get the browser plugin.

Not sure about Android phones though.

It did. I thought the acting for the series was pretty fine across the board all things considered, with Ewan McGreggor being the standout time and again. The actors did what they were told and at least tried sometimes to do more. George Lucas was/is notorious for being impatient with "the process of acting" (Harrison Ford attests), but they all did fine and even got better from film to film. For as much hate as Hayden Christensen got, about as much if not more than Jake Lloyd before him, he did fantastic work in ROTS. He sold the intensity and passion when it was called for. I don't know if you know/like the Nostalgia Critic, but he pointed out the scene where Padme tells Anakin she's pregnant and how believable their reactions are. Joy, mixed with healthy doses of fear and trepidation.

I get some warm and fuzzy feels now with that. I still get a few chills when that grand John Williams fanfare strikes up at the end and carries through. In the second trailer I believe it starts after Yoda says "Always two there are, a Master and an Apprentice." And it just takes off to the stratosphere.

It starts about 1:45.

I'll try to upload to YouTube as soon as possible and share it here. Not sure how long it will be online though, Apple most probably has exclusive rights until midnight November 30th.

It's actually tradition, all the prequel trailers debuted on Apple too.

It's always odd hearing Natalie Portman's squeaky voice in that trailer, because they processed her speech in the movie (or got her to re-record it) to make the voice of Padme's political 'Amidala' persona much deeper.

You learn something new everyday. I did not know that. It sounds great in the movie. She was only 14 when she did the film I believe.
