RETURN OF THE J-BOYS
Friday night was Star Wars night and I couldn't help but be reminded that we all watched Episode I together as well. The circle was complete then as 4J felt the power of the Force with Episode III, quite fittingly at Greenbelt 3.
It all started with R-Jay summoning a gathering...well, actually, just texting as to who needed tickets. Xander (and Mel), Tini (and Conci), Joey (and Mia), TC and I answered the call. R-jay then mysteriously gave up his tickets to Rhochie and Micki so they were able to join us for that showing - which is amazing since Rhochie ended up on the other side of the world again:
Me: "S'an ka na?"
Rhoch: "Nandito na! Sa may Cinderella!"
Me: "Cinderella? Saan ka pumunta?"
Rhoch: "Di ba Glorietta?"
Thankfully, a few minutes and a long walk from Glorietta later, the Browns arrived and we got on with our movie.
I went into it with low expectations and with Episodes I and II fresh in my mind, so what I got was a pleasant surprise. Dialogue was horrendously sappy or dated but kudos to the lightsaber scenes. All-in-all, I felt that the movie provided me with the closure I needed and wanted to have.
As the curtain now goes down on Star Wars, I send it off with the proper salute...
"Live long and prosper...Nanu nanu!"

Well, we didn't walk all the way there. It was hotter than hell outside. Good thing the driver was still circling the rotunda, though.
Another reason why I don't go to the Makati CBD. Whoever planned that area, especially the malls, should be hung, drawn and quartered.
I wasn't invited?!?!? Hindi na ba ako 4J? :(
