Whats I"m Up To

Darth Yanni

Hey all you good buddy Yanni here, just in time to get all excitied about the new Star Wars movie, I know right now your saying to yourself "Another Star Wars movie...I had no idea. Can't believe they are still makin those". Well I assure you they are in fact making another star wars movie, but it'll probably be the last. Episode 3: Revenge of the Sith arrives at theaters May 19th, which is the day Episode 1: The Phantom Menace was released. I guess I didn't realize until I found this article that all the Star Wars films came out in mid to late May until I read this article that is.

As a nerd I of course have my tickets for the first showing at 12:01am(or 00:01 for our military friends). I eagerly await my chance to see Anakin turn to the Dark Side, and see the birth of good old Darth Vader. Being the only industrious member in my group of friends I bought our tickets online. Four tickets to be exact, Myself, Ferro, Matty N, and Brandon. Oops I knew I forgot someone, and I got hell for it. I didn't get my beloved Catherine a ticket, I didn't think she wanted to go. She told me on many occasions she hated Star Wars, whenever the trailer appears she gives the dirtiest of looks (she's said she hates that it makes me happy, lol), and of course she isn't very enthusiastic about my lightsaber addiction.

But I guess I underestimated the drawing power of the Dark Lord himself. Of course she hates Star Wars, but loves Darth Vader. We all know its because of his sexy voice, but Prowse was the real man who walked the galleys of the Death Star. If you don't know what I'm talking about then your not as big a nerd as I am :-P. So in order to fix this blunder I have to keep trolling the internet and the mall, cause I hear they're gonna open more showings or at least that what all the nice people at the theater tell me. And its my only hope of redemption.

I just hope Cat won't be embareassed if I bring my lightsaber along....I mean its expected...and everyone else is gonna have theirs, don't want to be the only one not armed. I mean what if some punk tries to but in line or steal my tickets, or some ornery Jedi or Sith wants to pick a fight. Like the Boy Scouts I'm always prepared.

BTW speaking of David Prowse, when they put Hayden Christensen (Anakin) in the suit, did anyone say "Arn't you a little short to be Darth Vader?"
