I went to see Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith Wednesday night at midnight. Neither myself nor my girlfriend are huge Star Wars fans, but she wanted to go to see all of the people dressed up.
Well, she turned out to be one of them. Two days before the show she decided she was going to make a costume, since she loves doing so. She pulled it off and it looked great. All of the people at the showing loved it and took a ton of pictures. Yup, thats her in the picture with Vader and a Storm Trooper. She was the Jedi Aayla.
I also managed to snap a pic of the coolest guy there. Amidst all the Star Wars chaos this guy was still rockin his Nintendo shirt. Oh yeah.
Anyway, I really enjoyed the movie. Not only was it far better than Ep 1 & 2, it was on par with the original trilogy. And in something of a shocker, at least to me, Hayden Christensen was actually the best actor in the movie. At times Anakins’ fall to the Dark Side felt a little forced or odd, but in the end it worked out beautifully. Im glad to see this movie come out and ended Star Wars on a good note. The Force was with Lucas on this one.
Hmm, I wasn’t expecting it to be good…you know with all the hype and the previous let downs.
I guess I’ll have to see it.

Aw man, you went to the one at Phipps! I was at the Regal 24 off of 85. We had a great time… I brought my DS, but only found one other person to play with while waiting in line.

Hey M4tt!
Wanna see it together? If you’ve already seen it, wanna see it again with me?

Dude, your GF is insane, I saw ROTS on Long Island and we had a lot of robed jedi but I dont believe I saw anyone with full on blue bodypaint. Hell, if you make the hat white and take away the lightsaber she could have gone as a smurf!

Wait a sec…some of you guys are in Atlanta?

I went to see it yesterday (19th) and I was
very impressed. The whole movie was
awesome to watch and featured many cool
scenes and characters. Now I can finally
play EpIII DS game to completion without
ruining the plot.

I dont know Andy, maybe tonight. I need to go to the gym first, and I’m actually doubting we could get tickets.
If you figure it out, give me a call, and I’ll let you know.

I liked General Greeeves the best.

It doesn’t have to be tonight. Perhaps sometime during the week? I’d be up for a late matinee showing during the week.

I saw it when it came out and I was most pleased that it turned out the way it did. I felt closure and it was also a very fine movie to boot. Full of dark moments and pure shocks, I would gladly consider this a “proper” Star Wars movie compared to the first two.

I liked it, but I was a bit… let down. Sorry, but I thought Yoda was the best actor in the whole movie. Think I have to see it again though, I was pretty tired.

oh my freaking god aj. i’m calling you right now because your costume is that awesome.
i wish i could be as cool as your girlfriend nick.

Yeah, i’m in atlanta. Grad school at GaTech. I could tell it’s Phipps because I know there’s a Cold Stone right next to the theater (more of an educated guess).

Woah, your girlfriend went all out, man. That’s pretty wicked. I wish I’d been in the US for opening night pandemonium. It comes out Thursday here in Korea, and my wife and I can’t wait.
