Tales of Sith Revenging, Quiet Mays & Rainy Sunday Afternoons

A reason why I haven't done one of these in a month: there hasn't been too much to write about. Sure, time has been spent w/ family-which was nice-I went to Epcot one hot afternoon, and another afternoon was spent at the dentist. However, there's no new restaurant visited or any wacky anecdotes to share. Thus, I'll mention that I'll be back in a few days to talk about more than one theatrical movie (Expectations are still high for the final Mission: Impossible, despite it receiving a mixed reception so far) and perhaps something else interesting to say. Right now it is pouring rain where I am so might as well give a short update.

I did revisit Star Wars III: Revenge of the Sith early in May when it was brought back to cinemas. 20 years ago, it was the best of the prequels but that wasn't the highest bar to leap over. The same is true in 2025, although compared to Star Wars in the Disney era, it doesn't look so bad. I have heard that the two seasons of Andor are actually worth seeing but who knows if that'll happen for me. There was still some nostalgia in viewing those characters again, and hearing a great John Williams score in such a setting.

June-at least the final part of the month-should give me plenty to discuss.
