Okay, so apparently my internet is actually working again. Hurrah.
So I went to the midnight showing of Star Wars, and it gets to the part when Anakin finally turns to the Dark Side, goes to Mustafar to slaughter the Separatist leaders, as Palpatine is in the middle of announcing that the Republic is to be turned into the Empire... when the movie dies. Yes... cuts off, can't be restarted. There were some people in that theater who were out for blood. I got my voucher and got out of there as quickly as possible, because it seriously was on the verge of being a riot.
Random thought of the day (I'm a little hungover right now, so I'm stealing one from J. Michael Strasczynski): When people ask how fast hyperspace travel in science fiction stories is, the best answer is always, "At the speed of plot."

I would have started crying had our movie stopped for any reason.. Then I would have been out for blood, as well.
