Am I the only one who thought this movie was boring as hell. There were 20 words of dialouge and the plot was stretched out. It might have been better as a short piece about 15 minutes or so, but like this it was extremely boring.

I thought it was quite good actually. Weird, but good. It didn't need dialogue - everything was conveyed through sound effects, facial expressions, and so on.

The sandpeople had women and children. We know this because Anakin killed them how could he tell? The children might be smaller but I never saw a sandperson with breasts. Did they hike their skirts and show him some leg or something?

Also, I can see the point of wanting to kidnap a human and use her as a slave, but they didn't. They tied her to a flimsy easel for a month. It's assumed they had to feed and give her water. What for? Was she purely ornamental? I can understand them wanting the droids, you can sell those for a lot of money, but a chick who's only skills are finding non-existand mushrooms and getting randomly pregnant, you're not going to get much.

One good thing was that while (at the academy awards) they were setting up to perform their number, we were treated to about 30 seconds of an orchestral version of "kiss at the end of the rainbow." (from a mighty wind)

the triplets song reminded me a little of the Jabba's place scene. original version.

They were on TV. On several channels.

Anyway, I saw the bit from "A Mighty Wind", Despodent. Eugene Levy looked absolutely hilarious, as I recall.

I'm quite aware of that. I saw the Oscars and remember the Triplettes song, I don't remember the other song though so I figured it wasn't on tv.

No it's there. I taped it. Mitch and Mickey did their number, then the camera switched to the orchestra pit lest we see the techies on stage preparing for the triplets number. That's when they played the orchestral version of "kiss at the end of the rainbow." The song they would have played at the presention had not ROTK been in that category
