Me and my father and little brother have decided to watch all 6 in prep. When I visit on Friday, we’ll be on ROTS. During Ep. I, my dad spoke up during some Binks antics and just said, “George Lucas must’ve lost his goddamn mind…” During the podrace, he was like, “Did Lucas think he was making Ben-Hur? Like, was this supposed to be his big chariot race scene? This… this is just awful.” And then he passed out. We woke him up after the race.
He was actually interested to rewatch Clones, on account of he couldn’t remember anything from it. When me and my brother reminded him that it’s “the romance one” he quickly replied, “Oh yeah! …oh…” He fell asleep rather early on during it.
