First time stepping into a cinema since the price hike (S$17 for 2 tix including bookings), first time stepping into Jurong Point since they changed the parking system into EPS one (S$4.20 parking, it used to be S$1.05 per entry). First time buying mineral water from them (S$2.20). First time collecting my tickets from the AXS machine that gives a receipt as the movie ticket (and got a nagging from sucre bcos of that) Which brings the total cost of movie on Weekday for Star Wars III to a staggering S$23.40. And that's for a 4pm show mind you.

Jurong Point used to be one of my favourite hangout because of their cheap parking. (The other one being IMM which is still free). But now it's going to cost S$2.10 for first 2 hours, $1.05 for 3rd hour and $1.05 for every 30 minutes or part thereof in weekends, ouch! Seems more like parking rates in Orchard. So I guess this will also be the last time I watch a movie in Jurong Point. Last time I buy mineral water from them. Last time I park at Jurong Point (for more than 2-3 hours at least). And the Last time I collect a ticket from the AXS machine.


Spoiler Alert: If you intend to watch Star Wars III: Revenge of the Sith yourself, do not read further. Although I will try not to reveal too much of the plot.


Star Wars III is a fine movie with plenty of Jedi duels. The movie starts off with a rematch between Obi-Wan Kenobi & Anakin Skywalker with Count Dukoo/Lord Tyrannus followed closely by Obi-Wan & Anakin versus Jedi trained droids. There's also Master Windu against Darth Sidious and Obi-Wan versus General Grievous (who is Jedi trained). For the finale, expect to be treated with an extend showdown between Obi-Wan and Darth Vader simultaneously with another clash of the titans between Master Yoda and Darth Sidious.

Revenge of the Sith is the movie that connects the whole Star Wars series together. Like why Darth Vader wears that dark suit, when did Sidious became hideous and how the Republic become the Empire in Star Wars IV, V and VI. There's also new worlds, never seen before, on top of the familiar Coruscant and Tatooine as the Republic wage their war against the Seperatist. However, expect to only catch a glimpse of it as those exotic locations are shown only when the Jedi order is betrayed and Jedi warriors killed everywhere.

If you are already familiar with the Star Wars series, you would have guess how the plot would develop. But nonetheless, there are several heart wrenching scenes like the part where Padme learns the truth about her husband and the conversations during the duel between Master Obi-Wan and his Padawan. If you have money to spare and time to kill, Star Wars III is definitely in the must see got to see and die die also must see category.
