This is all Foe's fault...
Aug. 3rd, 2004 09:25 amAt least, I think it is. I've had no desire to watch Attack of the Clones since...what? When I saw it in theaters? Probably watched it when we got the DVD, but...Anyway, the point is, no desire to watch it until I saw Foe's LJ post about the new ending to Return of the Jedi the other day.
So, random ramblings as I watched it yesterday:
Mute! Put the boy on mute! Just spin him around or something with the narration scrolling across the screen. ::points:: Her too. I mean, I have no objections whatsoever about looking at the boy. None whatsoever. Trust me on that one.(hey, can we have a fashion show and maybe a striptease to go along with the spinning Anakin around? Thanks.)
And hey, with a nickname like "Ani"(or "Annie") is it any wonder he went bad?
Ooo...scifi jedi detecting/hunting. I like that. ::shoo-s silly teenie-boppers away so Obi-Wan can have the movie to himself. Hey, Jango's not half bad...
The great love story, Megan's version:
Anakin: "I love you because I thought you you were hot when I was 10. Oh, and we have to get together to make Luke and Leia."
Amidala/Padme/WhateverhernameismakeupyourmindalreadyLucas: "I love you because you thought I was hot when you were ten and you saved my life a time or two, so by the Sacred Laws of Hollywood, I am required to fall in love with you. Oh yeah, and we have to get together to make Luke and Leia."
Anakin: "Yeah, I'm really looking forward to that last part."
Go away you two(and why aren't you on mute like I requested?), I want...ah, there he is!
Blahblahblah...ACK! That boy can't emote.
Leia...oh Leia, Leia Leia...you were so very, very lucky. You got to go into battle with nice, functional war gear type stuff. Your mom(whose butt I still maintain that you could turn into mush without getting a scratch yourself if it ever came to a fight between you two) has to wear this pristine white bra-less thingie that shows off her bellybutton. You also really got lucky in the formalwear dept. I mean, ok, so those white robes were probably a touch heavy, but have you SEEN what your mother had to wear? I mean, you could change clothes 5 times in the time it tskes her to get her clothes on. AND THOSE HEAD PIECES!!!! Ok, so you've gotten a bit of flack for the cinnamon bun hair, but have you SEEN those things they put on your mom's head? Yeah, you were lucky. And your guy was a lot better, too. Back to the movie.
Yeah, ok. Listen, I was only slightly concerned they first time you tried to make me think the girl was going to have bubbling metal poor down on her head. It doesn't work the other 50 times. Can we move on from the factory now? Thanks.
Ooo...the arena. This means only about 30 minutes left, right?
Oh, that hadta hur--HEY! She has these bright red slashes on her back but no blood coming out of them. What is that, super dirt and stain resistant fabric? Ouch, now she's rolling around in the sand with those giant slashes on her back! INFECTION! INFECTION! INFECTION!
Owie--Hey, wait a sec! The boy has, like, 6 extra inches of stump now that he's landed than he had when the arm was chopped off! What gives?
Yup, super stain resistant fabric...not a spec on the girl.
Blah blah...oh it's over? YAY!
