Let's Go To The Movies

We rarely go out to the movies. HBO, then Netflix, allowed us to keep up with the cinematic arts without leaving the house. Therefore, it's astonishing that I would see not one but two movies this weekend. Friday, the sister-in-law and I took in 'Sin City'. It was noirish, pulpy, graphic, and visually stunning. Great stories, even better visuals; I'm certainly excited at the idea of 'Sin City 2' and 'Sin City 3'. The following night the wife, sister-in-law, and I saw 'Revenge of the Sith'. Another visually stunning movie - albeit different from 'Sin City'. It was amazing to see scenes that colorful and detailed knowing that they began on a greenscreen stage. Overall, a very good conclusion/precursor to 'Star Wars'. I was especially moved by Obi-Wan's rant after the final battle. I felt it tied well into the character developed by Alec Guiness. Good movies, great weekend!
