And what an expository masterstroke it was when Anakin killed all the (...) (22 years ago, 29-May-02, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)

| | | | | | (...) Good God, that was awful. I actually laughed out loud at that scene. It's great that scenes intended to be moving, such as the sand:rough poetry, are invariably farcically comical, while George's flaccid attempts at humor, such as the entirety (...)

During the movie people snickered (...) (22 years ago, 29-May-02, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)
