Well, Zim, that's a well-thought out post and I understand where you are coming from and maybe in 5 years it may all be a moot point in that the technology will certainly hit the point of photorealism, but I often find it distracting. And you're right ILM is not the evil entity here and yes Luca$ did make the calls so therefore it is on him I squarely face blame. And yeah while the OT did have some faults considering the technology, I never found them distracting. Even the blur under the land speeder, that hovering lines, like heat in the desert coming of the pavement or something. I don't know, Zim, they felt different and as I said not only is the animation cartoony, but the execution of the characters, is damn cartoony, the way the talk, what they do, its distracting from a serious film. Anakin, Obi-wan, Qui-Gon, Darth Maul, Padme and Palpatine I most certainly will take over Dex, Watto, Jar-Jar, Roger-roger robots and those silly beasts at the "love picnic".

BTW, this is Jimbo...and yes it will follow you. Hate has a way of doing that. From one Christian to one that claims it, well Jimbo...You reap what you sew is from the Bible (paraphrase- what you put out there comes back to you).
