My Inhaler!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO....

So last night I finally got out and saw Star Wars with Andrew and Jacob who had both already seen the film; I'm not going to go too in depth here or really offer a review of any kind , I'm just gonna lay out a few thoughts about the movie. A warning straight out if you don't want to know anything about the film, don't read this. Warning #2 I'm a huge Star Wars nerd and may geek out a little here. The last 2 Star Wars movies have been utter shite and I couldn't even sit all the way through the second one. But now comes #3 with good reviews, raves from friends and a sickening slew of product endorsements in hand, and my hopes are raised a bit. So how do I feel after watching it, underwhelmed to say the least. Alright, it's better than one or two, but that's probably just because they have more material to work with, this is the episode where the whole fucking galaxy goes to shit. You need to be able to make that interesting. I'm tiring of this already so I'll be continuing in a series of unconnected statements. George Lucas, Would it kill you to build a fucking set?! There's been a decent amount of criticism leveled at Hayden Christensen and Natalie Portman's performances in the movie; I'll actually give them a free ride on this because no one could of made the clunky, mechanical writing of George Lucas sound half-way decent. Though I have many criticisms of the film I can say one thing that I couldn't say about the other two: I was entertained, I won't be going to see it again, but I was entertained none the less. Baby hands or not, Natalie Portman is mofo hot... almost as hot as my lady Miss. Deeks. OK, so that's gonna do it for Star Wars, but I'll probably be posting some more random thoughts on the subject as they come to me. It was nice to go to a movie with just Jacob and Andrew so we could totally geek out and be able to express our outrage that they may be casting a woman in the role of Angel in the new X-Men. Warren Worthington III a woman?! Blasphemy.

Did anyone manage to catch Ryan Adams on Letterman a couple nights ago? Holy shit! He's a wookie! His hair is all long and matted and he grew an epic beard, it was grand. It was pure comedy to watch as the camera man tried to get a close up of his face, but was consistantly rebuked by a glorious wall of hair and Harry potter glasses. Long story short, I love me some Ryan Adams Which leads us to (that's a seguay people)...

::Music Update::

:Ryan Adam's first solo album after whiskey town was Heartbreaker a country album that starts with Ryan and someone else in the band arguing about Morrissey. C'mon how flippin' sweet is that. The next track is still possibly my favorite Ryan Track of all time "To Be Young", which if you didn't know any better you'd swear it was a Dylan B-side. Some of the tracks are just too country for me, but the other tracks are near perfect, some of the most heartbreakingly beautiful songs I have ever heard. I'd like to thank Mr. Murdock for getting me to give Ryan a chance all those years ago cuz it is just amazing stuff. Please download it if just for track 2 it's worth it.



: 2 Rilo Kiley albums as well today "Take Offs and Landings" and "The Execution of All Things", each outstanding. The lead singer Jenny Lewis has got some pipes and is my all-time indie crush along with Karen O from the Yeah Yeah Yeahs.
