revenge of the sith

well, i got back from seeing _episode III_ an hour ago. i thought waiting to write about it would clear up my mind about how i feel, but i hasn't.

basically, i thought it was the best of the three, but i still didn't like it. and i can't understand why i'm not giddy over it. i mean, it had great special effects, it wrapped up the story line, and there were light sabers galore. so why didn't i enjoy it as much as i had hoped?

i guess i could say that the plot wasn't very involved. the movie just strayed from one action scene to another; the word my friend william used was "busy." busy plot-wise, busy visual-wise, busy everything-wise. i think the story could have been paced better. *shrug*

but that's all i'm going to say about the movie. i *may* watch it again, but i'm not looking forward to it.

my ass is tired. i basically sat in the same spot for four hours straight. although i did have to go take a piss during the movie, which i hate to do. it's one of my biggest pet peeves, but this time, i couldn't help it; i thought my bladder was going to explode.

so it's may, and the tv shows are winding down. last night's _OC_ was good, and damn, marisa's in some deep shit now. what a quandary! and next week is the season finale for _american idol_, and i wonder when they're going to end the season for _scrubs_.

i sort of welcome the end to the season. while i like watching tv, i don't like it ruling my schedule. yes, yes, i know i should get a tivo to free me of the scheduling shackles, but i just can't do it yet.

i feel deflated today. it's friday, so i'm sort of loosy-goosey to begin with, but the movie just left me wanting something more, or, rather, something better.

i've got a wedding in LA next weekend. one thing i need to do is figure out which of my two suits to wear. they're sized very differently, as the first one (navy) was bought when i was a skinny college student, and the second one (dark grey with pinstripes) was bought when i was really fat. hm. i better try them on and see if i need alterations.

ok, i had best go. this entry is uninspired; gonna go munch on some gummy peach rings. :)
