Star Wars Episode III

This morning I woke up early to head over to the Loews Cineplex in Woodinville to watch an early showing of Star Wars Episode III - Revenge of the Sith. I'm not a Star Wars expert, so I'll leave the reviews up to the bazillion other people who've probably already posted. I will say that this one was much, much better than the last two prequels and may even be on par with the original three. There are lots of great scenes and the cringe worthy moments are kept to a minimum (Jar-Jar is only on screen for 3 or 4 seconds).

I also happened to be downtown last night, so I got a chance to get in some good people watching of the fans waiting in line at the Cinerama to catch the midnight showing. It was entertaining to see all of the people who'd clearly been out there waiting for weeks, including many people who were fully decked out in various Star Wars costumes. The whole thing reminded me of the Triumph the Insult Comic Dog clip where he interviews people waiting in line for Episode II. Well worth checking out sometime if you haven't seen it already.

BTW, you can now address me as Darth Jamie.
