Akwat Kbrana said: "The awkward, creepy romance of AOTC is more realistic than the screenplay-romance of ESB." Granted, but if I was looking for realistic, I wouldn't be watching Star Wars. I'd be taking a walk, or crunching some numbers, or running some errands, or eating a bowl of cereal. Sci-fi movies ought to constitute an escape from the monotonous drudgery of real life.

Don't try denying, back-tracking, or bolding other things. You knew exactly what you were selecting to ignore. Read the above quote.

You basically said you don't want realistic romance. There's no other way of interpreting that post. Then I brought up that the interaction in Star Wars has always been fundamentally realistic and human.

Acknowledge that point, or this discussion is a waste of our time.

Oh, and "monotonous drudgery of real life"... all right, as a side note, I want to tell you that it's silly to assume life is monotonous drudgery for everyone. I can only assume that your life is this way, and you want everyone else to suffer along with you. Sure, escapism is fun, but no fun if it isn't at least to some degree relatable. Just because you haven't had any of those experiences doesn't disqualify everyone else. That's your ISSUE.
