Episode 3 - Star Wars in Crisis
Ok, so it's been a while since Ep3 came out, but it's still worth talking about. Here's the highlights of my RotS experience. It should be spoiler-free (given you know what happens from Ep4).
1. H.C.'s potrayal of Anakin had fewer lines but more brooding/staring under the eyebrows. Overall, bad, but better than Ep1 and Ep2.
2. Unfamiliar with the term "phone it in?" Watch N.P.'s Padme in this one. Egads.
3. I finally see why Obiwan earned the title of Jedi MASTER. He rocks the house! He was so badass, you can ignore his fumble with Dooku.
4. "Who da man? Yodaman!"
5. I.M. was laying it on a bit thick as Palpatine, but given NP and HC's acting, it was entirely forgivable.
6. Wookies? Nothing more than a money shot. I'd rather have that than Jar Jar tho.
7. TK421 was the number of the Storm Trooper guarding the Millenium Falcon in Ep4. I knew that and won a Star Wars Monopoly from the trivia question asked by the radio station event while we waited in line.
8. Waiting 6 hours on the mall floor wasn't particularly enjoyable, but many kudos to Brian (which waited almost 12 hours). The good seats were worth it.
9. It was worth it. Go see it. It will make you feel better after seeing Ep1 and Ep2.

Hilo Eats
So what's new? More World of Warcraft. :P
Ok, ok, so that's not so new. My latest work borne of boredom/inspiration is Hilo Eats. Quite simply, it's a list of places to eat around Hilo, Hawaii, with a section for reviews. Eat in Hilo? Review where you ate! :)
