Little something on whipping up, not quite done in time for but wanna to give you all a little sneak peek.
Empire is my absolute favorite movie of the saga not just for the great story and plot twists but the memories it carries for me. I remember begging my Dad to take me one Saturday and arriving at the old Geary theater in San Francisco to see a line to get in stretching around the corner. I remember my Dads face at the sight of this but being a great Dad he casually walked up to the back of the line and waited patiently as he listened to all the Star Wars fans recounting their favorite moments from the first movie and all their predictions for this one (remember no internet back then so it was harder to spoil a movie.😆) then finally getting inside and experiencing one of the greatest movie spectacles a kid could see!
So for these reasons and many more I thought this piece was way over due, happy May the the 4th !
