and mostly its just seems like some stupid rant from a guy who has to belittle others to make himself feel good, who calls people 'geeks' and tells them to 'go outside' all the while sitting behind his computer writing an online article for a sci fi magazine. but we're the geeks who need to go outside.
at one point he claims lucas is not 'one of the great, visionary directors of all time' only to later on say that he'll admit that the films were 'landmark filmmaking' and 'cutting edge' but then says that they are 'always and forever, movies for anxious, easily stupefied 10-year-old boys' totally contridicting himself as he does at various other points in the article. So now just because the bar that was set by a film has be later raised, it means that films contribution to the bars current height no longer matters?
he refers to lines of the script as 'seemingly written by that slightly twitchy tin-eared dweeb who sat next you in fifth-grade algebra, sweatingly' yet astounds us with his many wonderful sexual and porn references that sound like the ramblings of teenagers who just for the first time heard about sex and think its cool (and necessary) to make references to it in every other sentance.
maybe if he got off his high horse and didnt think he was all hi and mighty i could give some small bit of credence to anything he said in that article. but as it stands now its basically some ramblings of some immature adolescense who doesnt even have the journalistic integrity to check up on sources that he quotes as fact in his column. i doubt he even read the article after he wrote it, because if he did he would have noticed that half the garbage he 'accuses' star wars fans of in that article he himself is guilty of in that very same article.
