Star Wars ROCKED!!!!
I saw Star Wars Ep III w/ mi chavo at 4:30am. It totally rocked and we plan on going again on Saturday.
Please note that I have only seen eps I and II once - when they were in the theater. I hated them and was heart broken at how bad they were. While Lucas continues to not be able to write his way out of a paper bag (seriously, he should have had someone else write the dialogue), the jibber jabber was cut way down for ep III and the War! took center stage.
Best parts were Yoda and Chewbacca. Worst part was Hayden Christensen attempting to act.
YAHOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
And Le Peep restaurant was a great place to end my morning experience.
If only we had researched the opening a bit more and known that it opened today, my experience would've been perfect. Instead, since the tickets online said May 18, we woke up at 2am yesterday, showered, and clothed. I even did my hair and makeup since management was in town yesterday. Only to arrive at an empty theater and told by the guard that we could start lining up for the midnight show at 8am. So we went home and did the whole routine for a second night. The hard core geeks were at the midnight screenings (which all sold out), the drunks were at the 3:30am screening w/ mi chavo's sister, and regular geeks were with us in the digitally-projected 4:30am screening.
Also in attendance were a flock of teenagers dressed up like the characters and one adult chaperone. It was really quite sweet to see them. You know they worked it out ahead of time so only one of them was dressed as each of the characters.
Wooohoo! [/end slap-happy rant]
