I've had a lot of fun going to see the "Star Wars" movies again. Space movies
|
|
are so much more fun at a theater. I was amazed to discover that I
|
|
can remember the first time I had seen each of them (theatre, company,
|
|
etc.). I was pleased to see so many kids there enjoying the epic for the first
|
|
time on a big screen.
|
|
Riley and I had a lot of fun competing to see who recognized new scenes
|
|
first (nudge, nudge).
|
|
I thought they did a pretty smooth job of inserting
|
|
the scenes without being annoyingly noticeable. I still have to wonder
|
|
how the people of Tatooie kept the streets clean with dinosaurs as
|
|
pack animals?
|
|
<P>
|
|
Have fun!
