I personally enjoy conversations and debates with like minded individuals. Even those who have a different point of view.

Like many people my age who grew up in the 80s and invested their emotions and time and bday gifts and xmas gifts into star wars and waited loyaly and patiently for lucas to give us the prequel films he had talked about all those years I felt cheated and insulted. It is as if I am still waiting for a xmas present that I was promised and I know deep down I will never get that gift. I was given a wraped present with nothing inside of it. A present I did not pay for with money but with emotion and time.

it adds insult to injury how lucas just dismisses all the wrong doings and the lies he has told and hearing people defend it. People have a right to like the PT films but to deny lucas hads lied and done wrong is just a flat out denial of the truth and not based in reality.

Maybe those of us here and even those of us who do not get along all share one unique bond together...something was taken from us. Something we never had but something we were promised and something we payed for dearly throughout our childhood and throughout our young adult years. I can't speak for anyone else but for me it is an emptiness that will not go away and that is why my bitterness will not go away.
