Yes, in three days I've already seen Star Wars twice. The midnight showing was GREAT! We got there around ten, and they let us into the theater right away. There was a dwarf dressed as Yoda, and a dude in a bear outfit trying to be an ewok. Most people were in Sith or Jedi outfits, and alot of people brought lightsabers. One huy in our theater (they opened about 6) had those glass, $300, Sharper Image ones, and during the previews when the people couldn't get the movie projector to work, he was sitting in the back row, and turned it on in the little window menicingly, but then the dude in the room opened the window to yell at him. Also, around 11, some EB Games guys came in, and gave everyone coupons for the games. Then I answered the question of "What color is Mace Windu's lightsaber?" first, so i won a free poster and comic book. MAJOR COOLIO.
When the lights finally dimmed down, about half the people in the theater started making wookie noises. I have no idea why. But it was cool anyhow.
About the movie, I thought Portman's and Christiansen's acting was much better, even if the dialogue hadn't improved much, i.e. "You're breaking my heart, Anikin!" But thank god they didn't call him "Ani". That would have been horrible. At one point towards the begining when she says "Anakin, I have wonderful news!" the guy behind my friends and I whispered "PREGGERS!" Haha. But yeah, Obi-wan PWNS with a lightsaber! He certainly did some ass schoolin, I'd say. Though Grevious was cool too. Count Dooku-not so much. I was pissed I didn't get to see Aayla fight, but Mace Windu was good, and Kit Fisto held his own for a couple minutes. But you knew that as soon as those Jedi stepped in there, they were in big shit. Palpatine was surprisingly nimble with a lighsaber, too. I actually thought he was uglier in this episode than in VI. I don't know why.
Yay, Kit!
Hooray for Aayla! Hooray for all underused characters!
Thought that was funny. Ok, my new fav order of the movies are as follows:
V,III,IV,VI,II,I
I think this because the action was best in V and III, as were the story lines, and I put ANH in front of ROTJ, because if you watch that two hour documentary on all that shit they had to overcome to get it filmed, it really is remarkable. I I liked least because of Jar Jar and Jake Lloyd. Uck, what a lethal combination. The only way it saves face is with Liam Neeson and Darth Maul.
My favorite planets to live in the Star Wars universe would be Alderan, the place where the wookies live (crap, I forgot the name), Naboo, or that hole-y planet where Obi-wan and Grevious fought, with the bird dinosaur.
Wookie tree-house!
Places definently NOT cool to live: Mustafa, Hoth, Tatooine, and that place where the bug people live, from episode II.
Oh, can anyone tell me what those giant bubble things that Palpatine was watching when he was talking to Anakin or Corescant were? I mean, is that how people in outer space ENTERTAIN themselves? What the hell were those?
That's it from here, hope everyone has a great weekend. I'll try and stop by more often, and update my GB. Thanks for other 400 entries, now!
Hello, fellow Star Warriors!
