Let's see what all did I do this week? I saw Episode III, more about that later. I've really gotten into watching movies as of late. A firend and myself got on of those rental passes from Blockbuster; you know, the one where you pay like $15/month and you can rent as often as you want. Well, we've taken advantage of that. I saw <!--StartFragment --><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="-1">Buono, il brutto, il cattivo, Il and let me say, I'm ashamed I hadn't seen it unitl now. For a movie made in the 60's, its actually pretty entertaining. Another movie from the 60's that I saw just the other night was <!--StartFragment --><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="-1">Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb. That was a weird movie. If you have a good sense of humor and know anything about the Cold War, watch that movie. In between watching movies, I've spent a lot of time working on the clan history. It coming along rather slowly, but I've almost got it to the point where I can write from memory. I've also found some intresting thing while searching for information. A story about the EHDB's take on the Exodus and some old DV from when Tarentum was still a house were some of the more intresting ones. </font></font>

Episode III: Revenge of the Sith
Well kidies, its finally here: the last Star Wars movie ever! Personally, I saw it May 19 at 10pm. It was .. well, to be frank, disappointing. Visually, it was stunning. The graphical detail in the movie is the best I have ever seen. The planets they showed and the fight scenes were bueatiful. But the dialogue .. uggh, it was horrid. I don't know if it was the Sequential Pictures spoof, or if I was just expecting too much from Geroge, but I left the theater feeling empty. I wasn't what I had expected. I mean it was the story I thought it'd be, but wasn't the movie I had wanted it to be. Maybe I'll try the book. Anyway that's just my take on it. Maye other enjoy the movie, I hope you did too.

In the Shadows story and finally brought a conclusion to it. I'd like to thank the
Marshal for his work on this. Its something we've all been nagging about for a
while, but he's the one that finally sat down and did it. So go read it and
enjoy the hard work that all the contributors but into it.</div>
