I for one also boycotted it...yet I have succeded...I am strong and resilient.


By the way, in contrast to Smith, anyone care what filmmaker(s) of our day hasn't lost the faith? Trey Parker & Matt Stone of course!

When asked about "Star Wars," most celebs rarely brought up the controversial prequels. When they did, the memories were often unpleasant. Such sentiments were summed up by "South Park" creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone when they were asked what they'll remember.

"The original 'Star Wars' movies," said Parker.

"Yeah," echoed Stone. "The feeling I had when I liked it."

"That movie was our religion," said Parker. "It was basically saying, 'Hey, there's this power out there, and we can all sort of tap into it, and it's us and it's everything, and anyone can do this.' And then suddenly the new ones came out, and it's like, 'Well, no, it's all genetics. It's all in your blood.' "
"Horrible," Stone said of the prequels. "Beyond all the wooden acting and the stupid fights and all the terrible scripts, the very core of 'Star Wars' was ruined in these new ones. The idea that you're born with the force is so anti the original 'Star Wars.' Even though George Lucas made them all, he's wrong."

When asked which character they hate the most, Parker doesn't miss a beat: "Anyone in the prequels."
"Anything in any of the new ones," Stone agreed. "They don't exist to me. I don't even know what you're talking about. The new 'Star Wars' don't exist in my reality. Lucas is just an insane guy up in San Francisco now."





Now that I couldn't have said better than myself. Well I already posted that the PT doesn't exist to me and I'm still wondering what Vader was like before his change, and the mystery that is Fett, guess we'll never know.
