Episode X: Force's Projectile Vomiting

Long long time ago...
In a galaxy far far away...

Those lines would might still be read in, uhm... let's say, 2017.
Where George Lucas would be celebrating the 40th years of Star Wars tale.
Where cellphones would just as old as the "Haree Genee!" phrase(1), which then to be said as: "Haree Geneee!"
Where phase two of the Busway project in Jakarta finally start running.
Where Nobita in Doraemon would be like current, a 4th grader.
Where my obnoxious niece, Mira, would become a beautiful 19 years old girl, which I won't find disturbing if she and her friends running around naked in front of my room like they did yesterday.

But what about the legend itself? Star Wars is going to lose its momentum if it's true that there will be the VII, VIII and IX. People are getting tired of the Jedi and stuff, except for Princess Amidala, of course. But that's just because it was played by Natalie Portman, of course. *blink-blink*

Don't get me wrong, I'm a Star Wars fans. I just couldn't feel the excitement like I used to feel in Episode IV, V and VI. Maybe I'm getting older. Maybe the story is getting weaker. I don't know. But Episode III: Revenge of the Sith will be showing accross US on May 19th and soon the rest of the world. Let's just hope that it's going to be worth to watch, seeing from the spoof trailer and my favorite, American Jedi. Finally, who's ready for Annakin Dynamite?
