I saw a digital projection of it the night before last in Jurong (wessssst siiiiide) at Eng Wah. I'm a huge fan of Eng Wah, they have theatres in all the uncool malls and their logo animation (in digital 2K) was made in the late 70s at the height of the disco era. It's fantastic.
If you haven't seen the movie, here's a few things you should know, to prepare yourself:
1.) Hayden Christensen is gay - Kevin Spacey told me. AND he looks like that guy from The Darkness.
2.) Natalie Portman isn't as hot as she used to be (It may have just been those beige jodphurs).
3). Dialogue isn't George Lucas's strong point. See this movie while extremely drunk.
Let me say it again: Ian St.Clair writes great reviews. They are honest, to the point, informed, and most importantly I agree with them. Read his take on the latest Star Wars epic at mayakara.blogspot.com.
P.S. Maybe Hayden's not gay. Here's an actual comment from a blog commenting on his alleged funky sexuality (read it in the voice of that fruity guy on That 70's Show):
Do you believe that Hayden gay??????? I’m not believed what people say about him!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! A People who think he gay definitely wrong!!!! That was impossible to say that Hayden gay because he have character as Gentleman. People who libel him I think you should check yours first whether your perfect to say Hayden Christensen gay!!! I’m so angry people say like that! Don’t ever say Hayden gay. Maybe you should watch ‘Life as a House’ movie because he also said that he not gay. What I want to advice to people say Hayden gay is “Without know people closely, hence we can’t say about them” Don’t ever believe about this libel. To Hayden be patients, only god knows what we do and concentrated to your carriers. Even though I’m 14 years old that’s mean I can’t think logically. I’m has man and also Star Wars fan must make correct this circumstance. It is all about his dignity. Don’t ever say like that to him and don’t believe about people say him a gay. For guidance life was not meaningfully if we do bad things like defamation. Think deeply. God know what you doing!!!!!!!!!
Apparently, what Hayden Christensen really wants to be is an architect. He said so in a depressingly acute comment on his latest project:
"I don't find Hollywood interesting, so I'm thinking about studying architecture instead," Christensen said. "A film is a product and as an actor you can only sell it if you sell yourself."
