Not a lot to say this post. I finished the final sprint of total insanity, and the store will start slowly calming down over the next few weeks. During that time I will have more time off (read: any), as well as returning to school, so all told things should return to a more manageable pace.
Went and saw the most recent Star Wars movie last night (The Rise of Skywalker), and it was a joy to behold. No spoilers, but I was completely satisfied by it. It wasn’t perfect, of course, but nothing ever is, and for a movie about space wizards and laser swords, it did a remarkable job tying up all the loose ends from the series.
Not that anyone really cares, but as an academic exercise for myself, rating all the Star Wars Films would probably be:
6 (Return of the Jedi)
7 (Force Awakens)
Rogue One
9 (Rise of Skywalker)
8 (The Last Jedi)
4 (New Hope)
Solo
5 (Empire Strikes Back)
1 (Phantom Menance)
2 (Attack of the Clones)
3 (Revenge of the Sith)
Now, that stated, with the exception of the first 3 movies (Phantom, Attack, and Revenge), I will happily sit down and watch absolutely any of the Star Wars films with joy.
Anyways, one more day of rest before I return to work tomorrow, and I have to work again on Sunday this week (last one for 10 months or so), but at least I will be getting enough sleep and not stressing out as much for the next several days.
Happy holidays, everybody! And soon, a new year and a new decade… full of hope and promise!
