Classic American Film, Thursday, Period 4

"Good afternoon," Ziva said, once it seemed like everyone had arrived to class. "As you might have noticed from the films we have watched so far, the way that 'classic film' is defined can be vastly different depending on the person you ask. We have had award-winning films and art films and blockbuster films, and all of them can be considered 'classics.'

"Today, we will be continuing in a similar vein as last week. It is entirely possible that you have all seen this film at least once, and I would not be surprised if some of you have seen it multiple times. There are some films that we stop and watch every time they happen to be on the television, no matter what we are doing, no matter how far into the film we arrive, and no matter how many times we have already seen it. I believe these movies should be considered classics as well. You are, of course, certainly allowed to disagree with me, but I believe you will enjoy this movie even if you do."

And with that, Ziva turned on Space Battles - A New Start of course. Ziva might not know a lot about film, but she did have taste.

Clark loved this class, really. It was good to relax and watch Space Battles and know he wouldn't miss something important if the chipmunk in the pocket of his flannel shirt woke up and demanded his attention.

Or got pissed that he'd brought her to class.

Sara had not seen this film at least once, or ever at all, but once it started she was completely enthralled.

She was entirely certain she'd read at least five dozen variants on the same story, but that mattered not at all; none of those had glowing swords, and actually getting to see the big heroic fight scenes was reward in itself.

Jane had definitely seen this movie, but that just meant she could zone out. And start drawing little battle scenes on paper.

Space Battles. George couldn't argue with the classics. Although she liked Imperial Retaliation better than A New Start.

Meanwhile, she'd be munching on popcorn and taking it in.

Well, the space travel was fairly ridiculous, but this movie was entertaining enough. And she liked the music.
