Opening day was unforgettable if only for the reactions of my friends and I. Even then I knew we were all probably annoying everyone else in the aud (we were sitting towards the front) but even I didn't care, the movie was just that bad. My friend to the left went "Jimmy Smitts?!" and my friend to the right patted me on the shoulder and said "hang in there, man" as soon as the scene ended. One of them quoted Anakin's "but the women, and the children too" right before Anakin said it. Even I joined in and went "unleash the beast!" upon hearing Wat Tambor's voice for the first time. We laughed our way through the Geonosis scenes but one of us at least gave a woot as Dooku challenged Yoda to a saber duel. The absolutely priceless quote came from one of my friends who'd sat at the back of the theater as we were exiting during the end credits, "It doesn't matter how well it does because it's never going to beat LIKE MIKE!"
