Day 22

Today is a Thursday. It was an early morning to finish that speech outline that I didn't write last night while watching II with commentary. It was so interesting! It was the first time I had seen it with the commentary. I had hooked it up in my room again (half because it sounds awesome and half to make it look like I was working on homework) ; )
I had no Idea that all the clone troopers were computer generated. They didn’t make one single Clone Trooper costume in real life. They totally had me fooled. And I had never noticed the cameos before. They are so subtle. I saw so much that I haven’t seen before. It was cool to find out where a lot of the sound affects came from.
I was reading this article in Wired about George Lucas and his STAR WARS legacy (and all this stuff he sparked in to happening) this morning. I kept thinking, I've heard this before. I had heard this before. A lot of it sounded like it had come right out of the documentary. I guess it is understandable once you read 5 articles and watch a documantary on one man's life there's not much you don't know about them or at least their career.
After work, I came home and found out that survivor had been pushed back an hour so the president could yak for a while. I decided to take the movies back and get episode I because I haven’t seen it in almost 5 years, but pretty much all of the star wars DVDs where checked out. That’s not even the Half of it. I got all the way there, looked at the passenger seat and the movies weren't there. I had forgotten them next to the door at home. I went home and got them and went back, finally settling on Perfect Score and Electra. I watched Electra after Survivor. Its the kind of movie, whose plot is kinda thin and drawn out, made to look kinda creepy and put in tons of fighting and special effects. When it ended, I said to my self, "well, its no STAR WARS."
