HOLD ME LIKE YOU DID BY THE LAKE ON NABOO: Alright, it's time for our geekdom stand-and-deliver moment -- when do you plan on seeing Revenge of the Sith? In case you were wondering what it's about, the WaPo's Stephen Hunter explains today that "it chronicles Anakin's earlier transformation, by which the righteous pilgrim, so handsome, so brave, so noble, so committed, lost his way and became Ahab or Macbeth or Raskolnikov or Faust, or John Wayne in "The Searchers," a figure of power and strength and charisma and intellect, all of it invested in madness and destruction," and if that doesn't scream popcorn!, I don't know what does.

I have no interest in braving the zoos of the first few days, but I'm tentatively planning on seeing it Monday night. You?
