Check out the time stamp on the ticket. Yup, we got up at 1am to see Star Wars. We aren't just dorks, we are dorks who can't plan ahead.
But, I am SO glad we saw it on the first night. I really liked it a lot. I'd give it 3 1/2 out of 5. R2D2 was too funny, Yoda kicked some serious ass, the costumes were great, the action was full on and Anakin's transformation was intense (and a little sexy...) Now ok, yes, the 'romance' (and I put that in quotes because Lucas should just avoid doing and romance scenes in the future. They just come out way too wooden) scenes should have been left on the digital cutting room floor. And yes, Lucas is about as subtle as a sledgehammer when it comes to tying the films together. But hey, if you want a beautifully tender romance flick then go to a French film festival.
So now we are sitting here watching the original Star Wars just seeing how it all ties together. Very interesting.
