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.
