To my eyes, the storyline was choppy and erratic; too many events shoved into a single film. The dialogue was stiff, a lot of the acting was wooden, and it left me with some mechanics and plot oriented questions:
  • Why did Palpatine visibly age when using Force Lightning the first time, and then use it without noticeable effect later? Where's the consistency?
  • Yoda admitting defeat after one battle? What the hell happened to Do or do not, there is no try.?
  • How do you steer a starship when the engines -and- the atmospheric flaps are torn away? They were all mounted on the stern of that cruiser...
  • What kind of lizard was that? Why aren't they more popular? The thing can leap down two stories without missing a step, and can outrun Grevious' air speeder. I want a lizard like that.
  • When you're going to arrest someone who's just been revealed to be a Sith Lord, why the hell would ANYONE take three idiots with them that are so inept that they're all three mowed down in less than 10 seconds?

*shrugs* Oh well.


Other than that, there's very little going on, but here're the high points:
  • I'm hopping about on the crutches. With toes extended, the leg will take enough of my weight to balance. A positive sign, I'm hoping.
  • I won't be making the Eberron campaign I normally play in this weekend. I'm simply not coordinated enough, and I keep needing naps. Maybe next week.
  • After a LOT of help from Kelly, my Gateway Solo (P-II/266, Fedora Core 1) has been converted to a wireless access point (AP). The apartment is now wireless enabled. I've got to find a way to mount the antenna a bit more stably, but that's compartively minor. When Megan's machine gets rebuilt, it's getting a cheap 802.11b card and the wire run through the hallway goes away.
  • Most of my local friends are going to be away this weekend (or are already gone). Hilfie and Ray are off at GenCon, [livejournal.com profile] nightambre and several of her close friends are all at Otakon, Fuzzy's in Missouri meeting a girl he met through a cellphone chat, Grot's at a WarHammer tournament somewhere, and Crys and Kelly will be gearing up for their trip starting next Wednesday. Gonna be a long weekend, methinks.
  • If anyone has a 5volt 2.5amp power adapter, could I borrow it? I have a purpose-built wireless AP that's also a 10/100 switch. I'd love to use it, but can't find anything to power it.
I think that's all of it. 'm gonna go find something to do now.

*hugs*

I wanna know why General Grevious kept his weak spot so unprotected. What an idiot.
