The Phantom Menace
Saw it twice on Thursday and Friday. I don’t think anything more needs to be said other than, if you miss this film, you’ll end up regretting it a few years down the track. Yeah, so you can see it on video. You can also see it when the crowds dies down… but the atmosphere of a full-house, ultra-packed cinema is half the fun! The soundtrack sounds so much better when heard in context. Especially Duel of the Fates. I never realised this cos I’ve never heard a movie soundtrack before watching the movie. I’ll be looking at the Star Wars vs Titanic site in interest :) Screw the critics.
One more thing… apparently the film melted or the projector overheated in one of the premier screenings of TPM at one of the cinemas. The crowd left unrefunded, with half the movie unwatched. I pity the guy who had to go in and tell the crowd of the “technical difficulties”. It’s a wonder there wasn’t rioting.
