Battle of lights and sounds
When I got out of Star Wars III yesterday I was still in my little movie aw. It was finally another Star Wars, dark and badly written but still Star Wars. The theatre was in a mall and when we came out I was taken aback by everything around me. Sensory overload. I dont go down town at all anymore, I stay in my neighborhood and just seeing all the comotion and the consumption and all that is a mall just was too much. Its funny how I got kind of overloaded by the mall and not by a movie that was created out of nothing. Our video game culture is so comforting.

that's funny... i'm going to see star wars tonight with some friends. we'll be leaving the ghost town downtown core to 'northend' it tonight in big box store/ mega shopping mall area.
unlike my friend shiraz who undeniably will suffer from a panic attack the moment he gets into the car, i'll be sucking up all the sounds and sights pointing out the obvious to everyone. like for instance... london's poor city planning (allowing development to take place outside of the city where buses can't even transport the shoppers and/or employees).grr... london is a city for drivers and that's why i hate everyone here.

So what did you think of the movie?
You should just get a Vespa for London than all those drivers will by a thing of the past, you can cruise by them on the sidewalk.
