Weather the first half hour. It will get better.

There were 2 problems I thought could really hurt Episode 1: the lack of Harrison Ford, and the death of Jim Henson. The death of Henson turned out to be the big (and I mean freaking huge) downfall of this movie. The character of Jar Jar probably has Henson rolling in his grave just as I was squirming in my seat whenever Jar Jar delivered a line.

Note that there are commercials aring in America after week 2. That is never a good sign. Usually a movie that is doing as well as it was expected to waits a month or two to start advertising again. The second round of ads only come when the interest starts to drop off.

Intelligence is a virtue, boab. If you can't respond intelligently, don't bother replying.

Sorry, I do not know the right angled square of the sum of the adjacent hypotenuse. I do apologise.

Now bugger off and play with your toy dolls, Sad Freak!
