Estar Guars

Simon writes in from Panama to say that the local population is excited about the latest installment of "Estar Guars". Como se dice "Wookie"?

And a hilarious bitchy review in the New Yorker:

The general opinion of “Revenge of the Sith” seems to be that it marks a distinct improvement on the last two episodes, “The Phantom Menace” and “Attack of the Clones.” True, but only in the same way that dying from natural causes is preferable to crucifixion....
The young Obi-Wan Kenobi is not, I hasten to add, the most nauseating figure onscreen; nor is R2-D2 or even C-3PO, although I still fail to understand why I should have been expected to waste twenty-five years of my life following the progress of a beeping trash can and a gay, gold-plated Jeeves.

So Anthony Lane ends up hating on Yoda:
