I was thinking about it, but after hearing all the bad reviews from the critics I don't know If I'll see it at the theater or wait for video

I am actually looking forward to this one for some reason.

Just hope it's better than the last one. Ep.1 was a major let-down. Can you say Jar Jar? Friggin' stupid. Some good actors would be a plus this time. And maybe a coherent plot?

I was gonna go in the weekend, but wanted to miss the crowd. Figure Thurs afternoon is best way to do it, or wait a couple weeks after the release.

How about Christopher Lee and Jimmy Smits? I read today that they play roles. I read the book a week ago and it sounds like this one really sets the stage for episode 3. It will be interesting to see the screen shots of all the clones. I start vacation on Friday so I will probably wait till mid week to catch a matinee when the crowds wont be so bad.

I didn't enjoy Episode 1 as much as I had hoped. I later wondered if reading some of the negative reviews had prejudiced me against the film. Instead of thinking "COOL!"I was thinking-"I see why Roger Ebert said that"

[url=]http://www.msnbc.com/news/750955.asp[/url] This guy makes it sound like these films are getting geared more and more towards children-but the clips I saw this weekend looked neat and it sounds like the last 1/3 of the film if great.

Now if Harrison Ford can make one more good Indiana Jones film...

I can't wait to go see it. I will going to the early showing on thursday morning here in OKC. The guy at the ticket booth said that I need to be in line at about 0800 hours, the shows starts at 10:00. I guess it can't be to bad I waited six hours in line for the first one.

Dude, no need to wait in line, just go to fandango.com or moviefone.com and buy tickets online.

I don't think I will have to do that here in the suburbs of Dallas though, thank goodness. Pretty sure there's not that many Star Wars geek around. At least none that will take the day off to see it.

This is going to be a good summer for movies. I just saw Spiderman. I loved it!

I wasn't excited about Star Wars this time around (thank you Jar Jar), until I saw the black market trailer with Yoda pulling off some ninja moves. Now I ready to see it.

I'm also waiting for MIB 2. The trailers are awesome.

And when I get in my flaky Conan the Barbarian mood, I'll head out to see Scorpian King.

Yes sir... a good spring/summer for movies.

I am quivering in giddy anticipation!
(perhaps a slight exaggeration, but you get the idea.)

I have a friend that works at the local movie theater who can let me in free to the midnight showing on Wednesday night!

If I get to bed by 2 something I can still make it to school Thursday... it's not like I haven't done it before!

Star Wars is so totally cool it makes me tingle all over. Even my pee pee...
