Obligatory pop culture reference
I saw Batman Begins tonight, great movie, actual acting, dialog and plot. Bit of a rare treat lately, especially compared to the latest star wars movie, Revenge of the Sith through wooden, painful, amateurish dialog. Action scenes were great, but George Lucas made it really hard for me to suspend disbelief with the horrible dialog, a first year film student could probably do better dialog. Maybe George is so captivated by CGI, he’s forgotten how to tell a story. Here’s one blogger’s hilarious take on it, via Shawn at YourMacLife
Revenge of the Sith: A Plot Summary. I saw Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith yesterday, and figured I’d share my pain.
OTHER JEDI: Even though we can use the Force to deflect laser beams in midair, we cannot tell that people are sneaking up behind us with guns. [Die.]
Here’s a good quote from Batman Begins.
Took quite a fall, didn’t we? (ALFRED) And why do we fall, Master Bruce? So that we might better learn to pick ourselves up.
A good thing to remind us all from time to time.
