In hindsight, my 2nd post last night was an apology to you. The first post last night, was supposed to be a reply to Davis. Somehow I obviously screwed that up. So now you think I've attacked you twice in the same thread. Once again, sorry. Everyone's' got their opinions. But what irks me the most is coming to these forums and hearing, not the complaining about not having the OOT preserved as they should be, but the negative dumping over the prequels and SE's when not everyone shares that opinion. I just wish people had a little more respect here for those of us who get tired of hearing the same ole lucasbashing over and over. It's one thing to state your opinion, and lobby for something but it's completely another to berate someone or something to the point many do here. I'm not saying you're one of those people, although in my initial post I falsly assumed you were trying to start something. So once again, I'll apologize for that.

Take issue all you want, but your opinion is your own.
Yes, it is. How many times have you read where I took issue with someone else's opinion? How about when I told someone their opinion was wrong? Here, let me help you with the answer - that would be none.

I posted a cereal box and pointed out the stickers you could get in 1977. I didn't post a cereal box and say "look, here's a cereal box - it proves that the PT is shit".

My dislike of anything after Star Wars is not me insulting you or your opinion. In fact, it has absolutely nothing to do with you. You aren't Star Wars - you don't get to speak for Star Wars - you don't represent all that is Star Wars.

For some reason, every time I make a post and mention something positive about Star Wars 77 - here you come, blathering on about how I haven't given the PT the respect it deserves or considered all sides of the issue, etc.

Sunday, I don't care about anything that came after Star Wars. That really doesn't mean much in the grand scheme of things.


But you can crap over the PT all you want.

I have definite views on the PT alright. However, if you'd bother reading anything I've written the last few years, you would see that it's really just the lies Lucas tells about writing the last five films and what little I know about the storyline of the PT. For me to be able to "crap over" the PT with any credibility, I would have had to have seen them all. I haven't. I've seen only Phantom. I can't criticize - or even participate in - PT discussions, because I don't know what anyone's talking about.


I happen to enjoy all 6...

Good for you. Your Star Wars marathons last a lot longer than mine.
