Of course we can't disclose anything too super about the film that isn't out there already (for that matter, we can't even disclose the stuff that out there already). But we can say that the overwhelming relief eschewed by other previewers is, thank the maker, pretty much appropriate. (Although one attendee wrote to us later, "Not my cuppa tea. At least 80% of the effects looked stunning and I appreciated watching it from a purely visual standpoint. However, I am an old romantic at heart and I can't resist a good love story. Anakin and Padme, whose passionate strength is meant to provide the crux of the whole Star Wars series, were about as romantic as couple of damp squibs. I wanted to see their lust, their craving, their desire, you know, like Romeo and Juliette or something. Instead, we had to make do with them merely telling us how they felt.")

After the jump: big smiles, nudity, and George Lucas spinning around.
