Well said and I couldn't agree with you more. I love Star Wars full-stop.Warts,flaws and all.I love the movies,love the story,I just love it.I have props,figures...hell I even have tattoos.However people really need to stop seeing Lucas as some demonic figure looming over their childhoods with a scythe in his hand.My childhood and a large part of my life has been about SW.I am passing my love of these films onto my children and I will not pass it on with the kind of cynicism that seems so prevalent in the fan-base right now.Remember when you had that boundless enthusiasm?Remember goosebumps when the logo came up on the screen and the music kicked-in?Remember the thrill of hearing a lightsaber ignite?I am proud to say I still feel all those things well into my thirties.These are the things I intend to hold onto and not lose focus of what made me love them in the first place.I want my two boys to share the good things about the series and not all this petty crap you hear bandied about.
