Great post Steve. You really should start writing on your site again, and of course here.
I love your narratives.

I'm a fan of the Star Wars series, but not so much Episodes 1 and 2. I doubt they will be indeleble in my mind, as was the first set. I am looking forward to 3 anyway. At the least, technology should make it worthwhile, film-wise.

Jar Jar drives me nuts, he does. So annoying, he is.
