I confess … I didn’t go to see Revenge of the Sith at midnight. And I had an invitation to go, from a fellow geekbook author, no less …

I made a promise to the family that we would watch Episodes I and II on DVD before going to see Episode III in the theater. It’s not that I’m not an insanely huge Star Wars fan … it’s just that I can’t remember watching Attack of the Clones.

This worried me.

Could I have seen the movie and completely forgotten it? Could it have been the Men In Black Neuralyzer from Burger King that made me forget? It couldn’t have been that the movie was that forgettable (Jar Jar Binks? Now that’s one we’d all like to to forget) …

Star Wars fan, I am … but I’m definitely not a fan of crowded movie theaters. I’d much rather catch a bargain matinee a week or two after opening night. And for this, the final episode of the Star Wars series, I want to be fully prepared. There might not be a pop quiz, but I want to be able to connect all of the dots. I’ll be ready to go after watching The Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones back to back (a few times, even).
