Sith Spoiler
Silent bob speaks out on Sith. Warning, this entry contains a huge spoiler.

"Revenge of the Sith" is, quite simply, fucking awesome. This is the "Star Wars" prequel the haters have been bitching for since "Menace" came out, and if they don't cop to that when they finally see it, they're lying. As dark as "Empire" was, this movie goes a thousand times darker - from the triggering of Order 66 (which has all the Shock Troopers turning on the Jedi Knights they've been fighting beside throughout the Clone Wars and gunning them down), to the jaw-dropping Anakin/Obi Wan fight on Mustafar (where - after cutting his legs and arm off, Ben leaves Skywalker burning alive on the shores of a lava river, with Anakin spitting venomous sentiments at his departing mentor), this flick is so satisfyingly tragic, you'll think you're watching "Othello" or "Hamlet".

Jar-Jar really pissed me off. I hadn't gotten over the ewaks by that point. I have genuinely lost interest in the franchise. It will take a great movie to bring me back.

Oopsie, told you the wrong time.  I'll be at the Ace Theater this Saturday (April 30) starting at 8:00pm instead of 7:30 pm.  We'll play a little more for you too.  Of course, you can still come at 7:30 to socialize and have a little glass of wine, if you'd like.  I'd love to see you.
