I did go and see Star Wars last night - I figured it was better than hanging around home and trying to keep busy and randomly feeling sad. Prince was a good dog. We had a lot of good times with him. He was very old, and obviously wasn't very comfortable - he's in a better place now.
My sister and her boyfriend are visiting, too... It helped that since she hasn't been home in a while, she was able to handle the news better than the rest of us.
Anyway, Star Wars wasn't great. It had its moments, and of course the effects were awesome, but yeah. The writing was bad, the acting was meh, and the pace was horribly rushed. THIS movie could've been three movies.
A Sum-up of the Star Wars tragedy:
Anakin: I fight for what's right. I believe in justice and truth.
Palpatine: Turn evil.
Anakin: Okay!
The indeterminite passage of time:
Padme: I'm pregnant.
*two weeks later*
Padme: I'm giving birth.
Inconsistency:
Padme: *dies in childbirth*
Obi-Wan: Wait... didn't Leia say she knew her mother?
Lucas: No one will notice.
Fans: OMGWTF, that's WRONG!
I may be exaggerating, but not by very much.
I think my AMV is finished. I need to watch it again and stuff... Might be a while, I don't know. I'll post here when it's ready to be shared.
And, to everyone who replied to my last post with sympathy, thank you. I really appreciate it.
