Some thoughts on Star Wars
Well,
I blew a ton of money drinking last night. I went out with a bunch of Canadians, and we didn´t get back to the hostel untill 6 AM. That totally screwed my day over today. I had planned to go to Tolido with some girls from the hostel, but I didn´t wake up till 2AM, at which point I was still a little drunk, quite hung over, and starving as I hadn´t eaten in over 24 hours.
So I relaxed today. I booked all my stuff, found a place to empty my digital camera, and saw Star Wars Episode III. I recommend anyone who is interested in star wars go see this movie. Don´t let the first two prequels turn you off. It is really a good movie. I was a little sceptical at first, because the movie starts off with our heros in a rescue mission. The acting seemed really bad here. All the standard Star Wars cliches and whitty comments thrown into the action sounded awful. However, after this first scene, it got better. Anakin and Padme managed to pull off their act together alright. It didn´t seem as cheesy as the "lovey-dovey" scenes from episode 2. And Anakin pulls off a decent evil act. Some of the key points that the last 2 movies have built up to (and were the reason people were interested in prequels in the first place) were pulled off amazingly. All in all, this is a great star wars movie. If only George Lucas had a little better accuracy with getting it right. 4.5 out of 6 is just not good enough...
well, the bar just opened...
PS: oh yeah. Post comments if you read. I want to see who´s all checking out the blog.
