Guerre des étoiles
Aug. 20th, 2006 01:16 amUp ar 8:30 this morning so that Bob could pick me up at 9:30, drive me to his place (via Tescos for snackage) and we could start watching Star Wars at 10:30 am.
Thirteen and a half hours later, at 11:56pm, we finished watching it. All 6 episodes, from the point there the Phantom Menace first loomed into view to the triumphant Return of the Jedi.
Actual thoughts to follow later, but what impressed![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
dalglir and I the most was that it _works_. Six films made over twenty-eight years and when you watch it it actually forms a single story with repeated themes and motifs tying it all together. No matter what the problems and drawbacks (and don't get me wrong, there most definitely were some) as an achievement that's damned impressive.
