I didn't understand why, when I heard the news of Star Wars on DVD, I wasn't that excited. I thought "maybe I've just used up Star Wars; I know it too well and it's no longer interesting." Talking to y'all on this website, I realized that wasn't it. The changes to the OT are part of it, but it's really the PT changing the entire context and universe of Star Wars.

I'm not so pumped about this set. I'm so pumped about divorcing myself from the PT and changes and looking at the OT in a new light (or old light) and rekindling that magic. This set can suck my yak. (no, that's not a euphemism, it's just a creative, non-offensive insult).

As I said in another thread, if GL would put out the old and the new universes of Star Wars, I would love to have them side by side for reference, and just dedicate myself to the old stuff. But since he's trying to bury the old concept, I'm getting buried with it.

How romantic. Like Aida.
