Return

Saw Star Wars TPM today. I really, really liked it. I suppose never having seen any of the other Star Wars movies may have something to do with that.

Not a real great story, but that's not my priority with a movie like this - I wanted action and special effects, and there were plenty of both.

Loved all the characters - the hovering dude who talked like the Godfather was cool, and those camel-like animals were very well done, as were all the droids.

Jar-Jar, though, is my new hero. I wore those same pants, and even walked just like him, back in the 70's.
