Well, now this is interesting... especially in light of conversations with jessruth last weekend. ;-)

( But I've never even HEARD of Inwood. )

ObPost: Revenge of the Sith

Midnight, Fenway. Last night. (Got home and to sleep by 3:30am. Got up at 8:45am and into the office at 9:45. Not bad.)

Overall, it did not disappoint. Even though I concur that this is largely because the geek public's expectations were ramped so far down after Episode II... it is something.

Like mrmorse, I could still complain about several things -- ( I don't think any of these are particularly spoilery, but you might, so. )

But anyway. I will restrict myself to one principal comment regarding the movie, which is -- unlike pretty much any other comments I have read today -- that Anakin is so much freakin' hotter than in Episode II.

"It's the hair!" ... Of course, the dark-and-haunted thing is a factor too. Very Elijah Wood (only, y'know, taller). But really, it's all about the hair. Curling down onto the back of his neck in exactly the way that drives me... well! No more dorky Padawan buzz-cut, that's all I have to say.

Dinner tonight with (a cozy subset of) the Princeton crew. *grin* Where I'm sure this will likewise form a principal topic of conversation. No, not the hotness. The rest of the movie. Edit: Oh yeah, and also Hitchhiker's. A good time had by all.
