How many nerds like me have already bought tickets for Ep3?

Talk about both the movies and the books.

Heh, when the BBoFC card came up at the beginning of the film I swear half of the cinema applauded and whooped and the other half muttered to themselves and sank down into their seats.

Same thing happened to me, I had been planning on waiting until next week but got carried away by the hype. Ended up going to the 10:05 show.

Overall, I liked it - though perhaps I would have liked it even more if my expectations weren't risen because of the hype....

I'm thinking of going today. Saturday afternoon - my guess it that it will be packed.

I got a ticket online. It wasn't that bad. The theater was about 1/3 full.

It would be amazing if the acting hadn't improved.

It is very difficult not to improve on zero, if only by accident.

Well, some of it was. Parts of Clones reminded me of amateur theatricals that I have seen. In particular, the scenes between Anakin and Padme always made me feel like they were reading their lines off a blurry teleprompter.

Fun, fun fun

Post by safetyjedi »

Yeah but it was fun and that was the whole point, not to be some theatrical masterpiece. You know, I'll bet it will be Oscar material after two or three margaritas!!!!!!!!! :lol:

Hey, around here you can buy a good DVD for the price of two or three margaritas. I prefer to spend my money on stuff I can enjoy sober! :P

The film reviewing bloke on BBC Radio 1 was asked to sum up ROTS in five words. He said "Hayden Christensen, take acting lessons". I can hardly wait.
