I agree with the guy to a point. Heheh, I even refused to buy Revenge of the Sith on DVD after buying every freaking other Star Wars anything ever released on VHS, Laserdisc or DVD up till then.
And I despise George Lucas no end. But I won't cut off my lightsaber to spite my face, or however the phrase should be transfigured.
A sort-of, quasi re-creation of 1977 Star Wars on DVD?!? Not exactly the precise time to stop being a Star Wars fan. Wait another week, ok?
As I posted in another thread some long time ago, my Star Wars fandom is not affected by anything George does or doesn't do. My love of the original trilogy, all the fun I had seeing each of the films in theaters when they came out, the fun I had playing with toys and building models with friends, the fun I had collecting some stuff here and there, the outrageous fun I had waiting in line for the Hollywood premiers of the O.T. films and the prequel films, and all the friends I've made thru Star Wars and shared Star Wars geekdom fun with .... George cannot put a dent in any of it.
And there are two tattoos on my body that proclaim it to the world: I am a Star Wars Fan till death take me.
