I knew I shouldn't have stayed up to watch Episode II last night... Apart from it's overall mediocrity, I wanted to see it anyway, in preparation for watching Episode III this week. But I got home after it started, so I had to wait for it to end before I could watch the whole thing. Even fast-forwarding through commercials, it was still 12:30 before it was over. I think I liked the movie better this time through, but the acting still left a lot to be desired and the aliens looked more cartoony than I remembered. More importantly, I got a refresher on some of the plotlines that I had forgotten about, so now I'm ready to see the last movie. Actually, right now, I'm about ready to take a nap. It's going to be a long day... Time to go get some coffee.
