Believe me, I was hoping for that scene through the whole movie. I would have settled for "Large rock falls on Padme", though.
Man. Only George Lucas could get bad performances out of Natalie Portman, Ewan McGregor, AND Samuel L. Jackson.
I've tried to march in the Slayer Pride Parade ...

Buffista Movies 4: Straight to Video
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I thought Ewan did a good job. Samuel L. Jackson just sounded bored, though. I guess because his character has no...character.

Still haven't seen EpIII yet, but I do find myself asking:
What do you mean there's a Michael Bay Movie I kind of what to see???
It's the end of the world or something.

I thought Ewan was gunning for third place at your local bar's Alec Guinness Lookalike Contest.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
I was at the theater yesterday, quite decidedly not seeing III. I did, however, see the Guide again. This time round, I noticed that when Zaphod first meets Ford on the Heart of Gold, he calls him Ix. Hee, footnote readers of the world, unite!
I loved little details like that that make the whole thing work for people like me.
Also, was that Agrajag's statue of Arthur, in his multiple-me-murderer form in the background in Humma's temple thing? Cause it panned by pretty fast, but that's what I thought it was.

I'm just wondering who taped a yorkie to Ewan's face for EpIII.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

That's a job I actually wouldn't mind having. Besides putting me in such close proximity to Ewan's face, there would be puppies.

GAH, ita. Breaking me like that before I go to work is no fair.
Dreams further of job as "Yorkie Positioner for Mr. McGregor".
They wouldn't even have to pay me if I could just play with those concerned when they aren't working.
