I agree with pretty much everything.
I mean, "I have the high ground"? I think I can sum up my opinion on the movie like this. Great buildup, but EVERY plot point "turn" or "final execution" was flawed. It's like Lucas has forgotten how to conclude a plot point. "Okay, climactic final battle, how should this end? I dunno... how about him being slighly higher up and doing a physically impossible slash?" Woah, wait, what if, like, he was TOTALLY trying to make a spiritual point, like he was on the SPIRITUAL high ground! YEAH! :D

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
