Man, you have to make peace with that. Raging against the director, the story, the studio, the actors, etc - it does absolutely nothing. It won't affect the box office, it won't change the minds of fans or potential fans, and it won't steer the franchise.

I agree with you 100%, I really do. But just curious, if you had like minded friends (maybe you did) who you could lament with back when Empire Strikes Back came out and wasn't to you liking, and then later when ROTJ came out, wouldn't you have?

I agree Hunter goes quite a bit over the top in his frantic condemnation of the new film. But I certainly don't see anything wrong with a few dorks venting off some frustration at something they love taking a wrong turn. It is not that anyone thinks the new movie will ruin the last forty years, obviously those are set in stone and untouchable, it is just an outlet of disappointment among a few like minded fans.
