Though I was impressed by how bad-ass R2-D2 was in this one... he didn't take crap from no one... :P

I thought that was one of the worst parts of the movie. All of the sudden R2 has a hand, can fly, catch things, and squirt gas.
Makes no sense. R2 could have done without the Jackie Chan scene.

As for the rest of the film, I have mixed feelings. The story and plot were great, but the bad acting and terrible script finds a way to taint major scenes. I just don't get why Lucas can't see what everyone else sees. I wish I could edit this film before it was released and take out some of the stupid parts to keep the whole movie strong.
well... R2 always had an arm, the jetpacks were invented in the last movie (but also solved the question on how R2 was able to get up into the X-Wing without the crane seen in Ep 4), catching things was new, but not unreasonable (since he clearly had an arm), and logically, a repair droid would have some fuel on hand. He just found a creative use for it.

I think making him so spry is supposed to show that in the original trilogy, he's over 30 years old. Not as willing to use the jets, jump around and what-not. [/b][/quote]
Not to mention Anakin is a wizard a fixing droids and no doubt added in some custom parts.

Why do people not see this?
