Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith
Yey! Finally got to watch Star Wars Episode 3 late last night. It's been a long wait but it's well worth it. By far, it's the best of the prequels. The first 2 episodes were quite slow with a lot of distractions but Episode 3 really links up the whole story on how Anakin is seduced by the dark side and reborn as Darth Vader. I find the show emotionally moving especially when Padme found out that Anakin has fallen to the dark side and when Obi Wan won the lightsaber duel against Anakin. Both Padme and Obi Wan were very sad and disappointed with Anakin's defection as he has become exactly what he swore to destroy as a Jedi. Obi Wan felt that he failed as a Master to Anakin and is obviously a broken man when he left Anakin with both his legs severed. All in all, it's a very good end to the Star Wars Prequels and I intend to watch Episodes IV, V and VI again as the last time I watched them was in the late 80s haha...
Oh yes, and yesterday I got a glimpse of Cyndi Wang who came to Gurney Plaza Penang to sign autographs, courtesy of Red Box Karaoke. There were a lot of ppl surrounding the stage and I can barely make my way to go into the mall. Luckily I wasn't late for my show haha... Seems like there are a lot of teenage guys who went to get her autographs hmm...And i overheard one of them saying in Hokkien, "Aiya, lu ai knhua ee, lu khee beh ee ae poster lah! Tiau tua pang keng, knhua ka lau nua" Hahaha...literally translated as "If you want to see her, go and get her poster lah. Hang in your room, see until your saliva drop" Hehe...it's really nice to be back in Penang :P
It's going to be another Formula 1 weekend... This time it's in Monte Carlo, Monaco GP. This is undoubtedly the most exciting and glamorous race of the calender. Will not miss it on Sunday haha...but I'm just hoping that Ferrari can do better this time. Anyway, they were off the pace in Thursday's practice sessions. Schumi could only manage 11th fastest time and was complaining about vibrations in the handling. Hope they can sort it out for the battle in Monaco!
