I remember leaving work at lunch to go see the Phantom Menace. I was going to lie to my friends and my wife when i went to to see it with them that night. I was going to pretend i hadn't seen it yet and act excited.Is everyone crazy excited for this movie? I'm trying to be. trying to remember the way I felt back in 77 after I saw the original on the big screen. It's not happening. I still had some of that ole magic for phantom menace, right up until I saw that at a midnight showing. I think after that it was gone. Now all I see for this film is merchandising and gimmicky plot twists. I hope whatever " shocking" reveal being kept under wraps for Luke can revive the awesome I once felt for this franchise.
Ah Twister, the movie that killed Van Hagar....they are going to fuck up Independence Day too. Great.
What will they defile next? Armageddon?Twister?
Fuck you Hollywood. Fuck. You.
I skipped grade 8 school the entire day to camp out and get ready to watch it, spent almost a day and a half in line with a bunch of other nerds. I remember walking out and thinking it was good, but then I watched it again and realized how shit it was. I am hoping this doesn't happen again/I remember leaving work at lunch to go see the Phantom Menace. I was going to lie to my friends and my wife when i went to to see it with them that night. I was going to pretend i hadn't seen it yet and act excited.
So i walk out into the blazing Florida heat in the middle of Friday with a blank stare on my face.
I couldn't believe what i just saw, or that i would have to watch it again in a few hours!!!Jar Jar Binks, trade negotiations,Pod racing and that little snot nosed kid is DARTH VADER?
So, i am excited, but it is definitely guarded optimism.

My sons are 8 and 4 and are very similar. 8 loves Luke and 4 likes Vader and Storm Troopers. They haven't stopped since latching onto the movies. Christmas is going to be pretty easy this year but i'm looking forward to the movies if nothing else just to see them take part in some of the hype. I forgot how much fun it was just to hunt for toys, get tickets, and pretty well theming everything from birthdays to Christmas around one thing. It's been a fad or flavor of the month in our pop culture for a while.. especially for kids.Ran my 2 boys (7 and 5) through a star wars marathon last week (IV V and VI) and they ate it up like it's the best thing they ever saw.
My 7 yr old's fav character is Luke but my 5 yr old really latched on to darth vader .....the other night he was playing and her was huming the imperial march..... I was swelling with pride and a little fear, not gonna lie.
Can't wait for Saturday!
On behalf of the rest of the people who bought tickets to the showing you are taking your kid to..fuck right off.I have a 2.5 year old daughter that I plan to take to see this. I'm not sure what to do though.
She's never seen the movies but she knows Darth Vader from a few childrens books and stuff. I really want to take her so she can say she was at the movie but she's never seen the others. Part of me wants to wait until she can appreciate them in 4-6 years as a kid.
