There was a guy in a Lavender bathrobe and a bike helmet on backwards I knew I was out of my depth
Last Night saw the release of George Lucas’s Final (maybe) instalment in the starwars um…. What is a trilogy times two??? Any way the final instalment the prequel trilogy and I think it was a huge improvement on the two previous prequels.
Not to the point being the geek that I am, I decided to attend the 00:01am screening at Woden Hoyts and what I saw stunned me.
I thought I was hardcore geek; Role-playing, being involved in the SCA, attending gaming conventions I even started queuing for the screening of the phantom menace at 4:00 pm but here I was out of my depth.
There where kids (god I feel old) running around with light sabres and robes everywhere, people dressed as superman and batman and even a guy dressed in a lavender bathrobe with a bike helmet on backwards.
Now I’m a fan of starwars don’t get me wrong but I’m thinking of changing that simply because I feel I give the fans a bad name, not living up to ridiculous costumes, didn’t start queuing up at 11pm Tuesday night not even clapping when the movie started.
the whole point of this rant is the movie was good but starwars fans you have reached a new low only just above Magic the gathering players…….
