May. 22nd, 2005 07:49 pmSo.
I thoroughly enjoyed it, although it was heavy on the action!action!wars!explosions! The dialogue wasn't as horrible as the last ones, although, eeeesh, still not prize winning :P
I loved Anakin. Big surprise. I whimpered for him as he was lead (and let himself be lead) down that path for what he thought were the right reasons. When he finds the younglings in the council chamber... that was horrible. You just wanted to shake him into sense.
I didn't like the wibbly Padme bit. Dying of a broken heart??? I wished Anakin had actually hurt her, cos she wasn't a wuss. Blah.
However, when Anakin emerges as Vader and his first words are "Where's Padme?" I wibbled. Woe.
Playing Tom makes watching Anakin go through that downward spiral especially poignant. It also shows how easily someone with ambivilant morals and strong emotions can slip down into the dark side. *plots*
I caved and bought a new laptop since they were on such good sale. I am getting some money for my birthday and I had income tax refunds, and dammit I work hard so I bought it. I love it. It is shiny. But I miss my old baby... I hope I can get her fixed enough to get some things off her hard drive.
My new computer is named Tom. *grins sheepishly*
And here's a meme from
minor_blue:
01. reply with your name and I will write something I like about you.
02. I will then tell what song/movie/icon reminds me of you.
03. if I were to apply an o'clock to you, I'll tell you what it would be.
04. I will try to name a single word that best describes you.
05. I'll tell you the most memorable moment I've had with you.
06. I will tell you what animal you remind me of.
07. I'll then tell you something that I've always wondered about you.
08. put this in your journal.

Date: 2005-05-23 04:45 am (UTC)02. I will likely always equate your Regulus icons with you
03. Proabably 8 o'clock (pm) since you aren't up late.
04. Crack-addled
05. We haven't had a ton of moments, but I loved our Tom and Reg threadthe other week.
06. A squirrel. (not a bad thing - I love squirrels)
07. I've always wondered why you picked Regulus.
no subject
Date: 2005-05-23 07:05 pm (UTC)I am not entirely sure why I picked Regulus, still. I think it's mostly that he was just such an underdeveloped character -- but then the HP 'verse is full of them -- and he had the potential to be so interesting. (Or full of crack, depending on who you ask.)

no subject
Date: 2005-05-23 05:16 am (UTC)And good call on the 10 PM thing. That's when I'm just getting going. ;)
As for number seven: my dream job would be working as a project director at a large museum. Project directors supervise major exhibitions from conception to opening, keeping everyone on time, on budget, and within the scope of the project. Means getting to work in a lot of different subject matters and a lot of different people. Would be very, very fun.

7. What are your coping strategies when things get to be too much? Do you use escapism, fall back on faith, have special rituals to get you through?

5. I remember when I first got Tom to interact with Alanna - I was so pleased since we'd both been around so long, and I'd never had a chance to have them "meet". However my favorite moment was when Ingress and Alanna met.
6. A lion
7. Are you coming to vegas??? You must! I have to meet you :P And another question, cos why not? What do you do for a living?
