Saving me from myself

George Lucas should do silent movies. The opening ten minutes of Sith, with the physical comedy of R2D2 setting up a tone unmatched throughout the rest of this sci-fi dramedy, reminds me of a weird mix of Charlie Chaplin and Jackie Chan.
Too much has been written about Ep. III already, so that's all I'll comment on.
My Dad joked that when they took me to see the first one, I was 4 years old; by the time we got through the line and actually saw it I was 6.
Anyway, T & S were psychic enough to rescue me from an emotional tailspin last nite with their spur of the moment suggestion to go see the movie. If nothing else, it was a good diversion.
