Ultra-spoiler filled post. Now take me to May 2005.

Dear George Lucas,

You ROCK.

WOW Darth Sidious fighting and Mace fighting and Obi-Wan and Anakin fighting and Yoda almost fighting and things blowing up and Padme with Leia’s hairdo and kissing and fighting and spaceships and DARTH VADER OMG.

…wait, I said discussion, didn’t I?

Okay.

Darth Sidious looks GREAT. I wouldn’t be suprised if, after this movie, he’s elevated to the status of Best Sci-fi/Fantasy Movie Villain Of All Time. The few bits of the duel look interesting – there was something that looked like Anakin trying to cut Obi-Wan’s head off with his own lightsabre. Ooh, and there was one shot of Obi-Wan screaming/gasping like he’d just been stabbed. It looked oddly like a mirror of Qui-Gon’s death scene, and will probably generate much discussion.

There wasn’t very much of Padme – there was her and Anakin kissing, her and Anakin hugging, and her turning to Obi-Wan with a horrified expression on her face. No prizes for guessing what he just told her…

Anakin with yellow-red eyes I’m not sure about. I suppose because Maul had yellow eyes? I dunno how that would work, or what point in the movie it’s at. Anyway…it looks good. Then again, Anakin with bright pink eyes would probably look good.

Wookies! You can see Chewie in one of the shots. I was watching it with my brothers and we all went ‘Chewie!’ at once. Heh.

I *think* that shot of something burning might have actually been the Jedi Temple. I’m fairly sure someone said that it would survive, though, so maybe it’s just one bit of it. Hard to tell.

And ‘RISE’? Well…I felt a disturbance in the Force, as if thousands of fanpeople spontaniously combusted…

And can you expect more icons like the one I’ve just used? Hell yes. And very soon.

:D :D :D :D :D

I wish I could find something to say about the election. I didn’t want Bush to win, not really, but since I’m not American I didn’t have much choice in the matter I guess.

And I don’t even much want to write about politics here, in my fandom journal, so I guess I’ll just go. I just wanted to tell everyone that I do realise there’s an election on, I guess. :p

Attempted to get a job today, but haven’t got one yet. I really want a job. It’s not even for the money, although that’s a nice bonus. I just want to feel like I’m not a waste of space.

I’ll probably end up working in Tescos. That wouldn’t really be too bad. It’s near my house, so that’s one thing.

–Alas, poor Sugarquill. The annoying thing is, I can guess why they’ve done this, and it’s a pain…they took down the entire forums for just one arguement? What about all those people with questions in threads on the off-topic board…computer questions and whatnot? I know it won’t be much more than just an inconvinence to most people, but…arrgh. Other people are SugarQuill too, y’know.

…yes, that was more of a rant. Moving on…

-I have come dangerously close to abandoning the Green Stone Trilogy altogether. And I don’t want to. I want to finish Making, at least. I feel guilty about leaving it for so long.

-I want to make Spyro the Dragon icons. I don’t know why. And Jak II icons, because it is the prettiest game ever invented.

-This interesting idea for a Harry Potter fanfic popped into my head the other day. It’d probably be an all-OC fanfic, but…well, ideas for it are coming into my head even as I write this.

-This may just be my paranoia talking, but has anyone heard from layren recently?
