To all,
Well, I finally saw the movie! I wanted to wait until the crowds would not be
so bad, and I was not disappointed! My place of work has summer hours, which
translates into having half of Friday off, so I went to the Showcase theater
nearby. It was great! About 20 people in the whole theater, I got the very back
row of the theater for myself, with the mandatory popcorn and ice junkie. Darth
Maul, a few battle droids, and even Darth Vader minifigs infiltrated the movie
with me.
Overall, I thought it was a great movie, the special effects were stunning, and
the pod race was awesome! My only real complaint was the "evil" Trade
Federation. Do all bad guys go to the Bad Guy school of Idiocy? Ugh, can you
imagine having one source for all droid communication? Where's the backup?
The only other suggestion was Darth Maul, for being as publicized as he was, he
sure didn't have much of a part. I think the pilots of the Queens ship (Looked
like a chrome SR-71 Blackbird, BTW, for all you military jet buffs out there)
had a bigger part.
It was a great movie, now I am looking forward to changing about half the Lego
sets to match the actual one in the movie!
