The new Adventurers sets look very ugly to me, and I do not intend to buy
any. I do not think you are missing much. The SW sets are definitely the
best and funnest sets to come out in the last 2 years; we are not big SW fans
(I was 15 when the original movie came out and saw it only twice but really
liked it. Then I saw all three in a row while an undergrad, from like 10pm to
4am). Anyway, I will probably take my oldest son (6) to see the new flick,
but I actually like the SW sets for being cool LEGO sets, not so much for the
movie--which, if I did not have kids, I would not go to view.
Speaking of the Nederlands, I saw a great movie from there, made recently,
about a guy whose life was all flashbacked, and it was about a supposed
murder. It was a great movie, very taut script with great lines (even though
in subtitles obviously, for me). It seems like it was set in 1930s
Netherlands? About a guy who worked his way up from poverty to a top position
in some industry. Sorry I am so vague -- I remember the impact the movie had
on me if not the details! :-)
