Yoda.jpgI hate it when people over hype stuff like movies. I mean tell me it's coming out and let me see a trailer, but please do not f'ing show me the entire movie in the trailer, don't get me going on that one, damn, they mess up more movies for me that way... Ok sorry I am in one of my moods. So don't try and get me all excited about a movie before I see it because I will alway be disappointed if I go in thinking it is going to be the best whatever type of movie it is. Period. I wish Hollywood would figure that out. You can say it rocks, or it is exciting, or touching, or whatever, but do not say it is the BEST! because I will bet you money it will not be. Ok so I go see Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith. It has only been out a day so I am not listening to other peoples feedback, I am listening to the critics and the Hollywood hype. Well once again they billed it as the best Star Wars movie. Bull S! It was maybe the best of the new 3 but maybe not. If I had sat through one more moonie-eyed scene with Anakin struggling to decide whether he should become Darth Vader, I would have screamed. If you did a directors cut of this movie and took out one hour, 60 stupid ass minutes of close ups of Hayden Christensen's brooding face, and left most everything else, it might actually be a good movie, but maybe not. It would definitely be better then the first two 'new' Star Wars movies. Come to think of it if you cut those down as well you might be able to combine all three new Star Wars movies into two decent ones.

"It has certainly been a long slog through two and a half movies to the second hour of Episode Three, marked by lifeless pageantry, tectonic-plate pacing, Jar Jar, effects-cluttered frames, and Medusa dialogue (i.e., it turns actors to stone). What a shock when George Lucas finds his footing and the saga once again takes hold."

"Lucas helped invent the Hollywood blockbuster ... But blockbusters have since become an overbred species, and Lucas' work has likewise degenerated into unbalanced overproduction. Post-Jar Jar, our expectations have sunk so low that now fans will celebrate a film just because it doesn't completely suck."

Bring back Pokemon Movie Theater Releases. I would be happy if Pokemon Movie 11 will have mild swearing language programmed when the English version came out for 2009. Will the next movie with Giratina ever release in theaters? Only time will tell. No more direct to DVD movies please. :)
