I personally use the “fan film” argument as an excuse to see them. I’ll simply enjoy them for what they are, SW fan films made by directors that grew up with the OT. If the film ends up being bad or mediocre, then why should I care? It’s just a silly fan film. And if it’s good, well, the it’s an enjoyable fan film.I’m just tired of crap. I’ve seen 4 god-awful Star Wars films in a row. I’m tired of paying these assholes any money when they have vandalized and failed to restore the only good films in the series for almost 20 years.
I agree with this. I have some interest in R1 because it’s the part of the story I’ve thought about the most. My late best friend and I were working on a story where we were characters who helped the Rebels get the plans to Leia. I’m interested to see if I like this movie enough to re-write parts of our story to fit in with this, or if I’ll dismiss it and continue where we had left off. OR (if I really love R1) re-write our story so that it has nothing to do with the DS plans. (I’m making this animated comic book one way or the other.)
But I have no excitement for R1. No driving desire to see it ASAP.
