Star Wars

I saw Episode 3 last night at the local Gigantiplex where they had ten midnight showings. It was good. The Cinema Delux did a nice job of crowd control by seating everyone hours before the movie started, so there was no pesky waiting in line.

As for the movie itself: it works pretty well. The top notch action scenes (finally CG doesn’t look totally fake) more than make up for the trademark Lucasian horrible dialog. However, is it me or does Vader look like a second-tier late-night local cable wrestling persona? Maybe he just isn’t as scary to me now as he was when I was a kid.

There were a bunch of Obi-Wans and Leias (or Padmes?) in the audience, a yoda or two, and a Vader. I dressed as nothing. Best costume of the night was Napoleon Dynamite who even did The Dance in front of everyone in the theater.

Sleepy.

  1. Sorry, nope. In fact she is rather underutilized in the film: she basically just sits around the house all day, waiting for her husband to get home. And she doesn’t even have dinner ready.
