Power!........UNLIMITED POWER!!!...........
So, last night, I had my first "CRAZY TRIP OF SUMMER". At approximately 10:00, I rounded Mom up and we went to a 10:30 showing of Star Wars: Episode III. We have done several things like that before (going to see TWO movies on sunday night, etc) It's always fun, and its great when Mom is there to really make it feel like an adventure. Seriously, it WAS really fun.
The movie, I thought, was terrific. I mean, I know they to wrap a lot up, but to me, jumping from little scene to little scene made the 2 and a half hours go by quicker. It was cool. Few things, though.
*When the Chancellor and Anakin meet at the theatre, and discuss the Dark Side for the first time, what are they, at a screensaver show? It looks like they have Banner on (set to MTFBWY!), and people keep uproariously applauding.
*Chewbacca seems kinda cut, compared to the first movies. (Perhaps Kashyyk doesnt have a 24 Fitness.)
*Great hoardes of wookies remind me of Harry and The Hendersons. I was terrified of both.
*Speaking of which, did it seem that since the Anakin/Sith storyline was being followed mostly, things like the Kashyyk battle, the General Grievous storyline, and a couple other things were just kinda "in there"? AND WHAT THE HELL IS THE DEAL WITH GENERAL GRIEVOUS ANYWAY!?!
But like I said, good times.

I liked General Grievous' hacking cough. Even though he was a robot, he still had a human heart, and apparently lungs, too. He was BADASS when he came out with those 4 light sabers!! hiiiiiiiiyah!

Yes, I also enjoyed the movie, and was disappointed by General Grievous' relative unimportance to the storyline. He was too good to just be there for half a movie. But then again, I seem to remember us saying the same thing to each other oh so many years ago about Darth Maul. In spite of most of my complaints (of which there are a few), I give Ep. III two very enthusiastic thumbs up.
