Midnight showing. Opening Day:
30 seconds into opening crawl - Huh? Trade Federation? Trade disputes? This is Star Wars, right? What about the Clone Wars?
30 minutes later - Ummmmm, is that goofy-looking thing going to be in every scene, because he's kind of annoying.
Jar Jar steps in poo - Theater is completely silent. Cue sound of crickets.
Pod race - OK, this is pretty good. Maybe Lucas can save this movie.
Everything after that - Nope. I was wrong.
Anakin accidentally blows up command ship - Gee, now why didn't we have Luke Skywalker says "Oops." and then accidentally blow up the Death Star? That would have been MUCH better.
Next morning - I wake up and think, was it all a bad dream? Lucas spent 14 years writing THAT?
