Star Wars month is almost here!!! And I'm getting hyped up... check it out ;)04/26/05:
Angrybot got me a new lightsaber for my birthday (I'm now 22... still look like I'm 16... whooeee) - it is the Star Wars E3 Anakin/Darth Vader Electronic Lightsaber !! HUGE improvement over my dented and battered old regular Obi-Wan Kenobi saber (though that one did retract all the way, and Obi's hilt is sexy).
Features include: Activation/deactivation sound effects, the constant humming sound when activated, clashing sound effects when you hit stuff with it, transparent blade lit by super-bright LEDs, both BLUE and RED (depending on whether I'm feeling light side or dark side). So wicked!!! Cept it needs 3 batteries so periodically I will steal one from my mouse, which makes using the computer slightly more difficult, but worth it cuz i get to bash the wall etc when I get bored of Quantum. Looks AMAZING in the dark...
I'm now waiting for my brother to buy me a Darth Tater.
Oh and final note for this day - i finished reading a pretty awesome fanfic on theforce.net, set 500 years after the New Jedi Order series. I hope they'll come out with another series after NJO... I'm in love with that time period... yay Solo kids...

I downloaded a supposedly leaked version of the Episode 3 soundtrack. I think the last track is not the real last track... it sounds like the ending theme/credits from A New Hope (heh). Though I've been trying to figure out online if it's the right one or not, and the name apparently IS A New Hope, which makes no sense to me unless the end of the movie focuses on Luke and Leia. But the rest of the tracks are authentic, I'm pretty sure. There's expansion upon the "Across the Stars" love theme, etc., so I can tell there's a continuation from Episode 2 going on. The soundtrack goes on sale May 3rd I believe, I'm sure either me or my brother will snatch up a copy.
*Edit*: The last track is right, after a listening. Part of it has all the music from the later Episodes, certain motifs that i thought were only from a New Hope. My favourite track has to be Anakin vs. Obi-Wan... I can picture the lava now!!!

Star Wars Day... "May the fourth be with you"... aha... ha... er.. yeah.

Revenge of the Sith opens! WHOOOOO! Although I might be in Cuba then... I think I have grown up enough that I won't mind missing the midnight opening show, as long as I'm on a sandy beach in the sun. But... I will see it as soon as I get back, which i think will be the 20th or something like that. Then we'll see if I can beat my previous record for the number of times I've watched a Star Wars movie in the theatres. (Or Lord of the Rings for that matter.)
Sometime in the near future:
I'll be getting a new system soon, the crown jewel being a swanky new video card (okay so ATI's are getting pwned by Invidia's right now, according to Tom's Hardware, but i can get an ATI 1/2 off). This means I can FINALLY play Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II. I think i'll also get in on the Lego Star Wars action, it looks too cute to pass up and i've heard good reviews. Maybe I'll also give Star Wars Galaxies a whirl... though if I do, I'll be so determined to make it all the way and become a Jedi, which might turn me into a mole person (gaming in my basement) so i should probably be careful.
