Man I am tired of all of you fans arguing about Star Wars all the time...it's exhausting. It makes me want to leave fandom becuase none of you ever have anything positive to say. I would love to discuss Star wars with fellow fans but no one seems to like Star Wars anymore...Well I guess I can save on rent if I dump my hobby room

 

We like Star Wars plenty. We (some of us at least) just don't like the modern crap that is wrongfully passed off as being Star Wars. And so what if some of us are pissed off, what else could we be, seeing as we love Star Wars and Star Wars has been so thoroughly crapped on? We love Star Wars, but I don't think George Lucas does. Else why would he mutilate it and crap on it?

Just becuase something has the name Star Wars, doesn't mean it isn't shitty....

 

Nowadays if something has the name Sar Wars on it that generally means it IS shitty. lol

I log onto this site in hopes that the OOT is released on DVD in better quality then the 2006 release, or released on BluRay.  

I also come here everyday hoping that there will be some kind of news about the OOT getting released on blu-ray. When there inevitably isn't, I stick around to discuss other OOT-related subjects with like-minded OOT fans.

It feels like this site is starting to stray from it's original spirit, and getting to be more like TFN. There are lots of forums where people can profess their love for the Prequels and SEs, but how many sites are there for OOT purists to bitch and moan without a bunch of people chiming in to inform us that there must be something wrong with us if we don't love the Clone Wars or the PT or the SEs?

It used to just be the occasional troll/threadcrapper like GoMerTonic, but it seems to be happening on a regular basis now. There seems to be an increasing level of intolerance for OOT fans here, which is very disturbing.

 

Yeah! I came here because I heard that this site was full of people who had sensible views on Lucas's more recent stuff and didn't feel it was unacceptable to criticise stuff that needed criticising. But by now I've had certain posters here giving out shit to me for my obviously Evil bashing of Lucas's holy work. And I've seen more of the same sort of thing happening to other people. Surely at least in this OOT fan haven people can be allowed to criticise without people trying to shut them up? Or does freedom of speech re Lucas's work have to be driven off the internet entirely? There should be some site rule that bashing is approved activity and is not to be given out about.
