Just seen this:

So they get 4 of "the most prominent Star Wars fans in all of Star Wars fandom" to describe how they think Episode 7 should open and then they got an artist to draw storyboards. Only TFN would start with an opening heavily influenced by the crappy prequels that, quite frankly, sound like the most boring piece of crap opening since TPM. But NOT ONE of them even got how a Star Wars film should open. It's been tradition that it opens with the crawl, the pan down and a spaceship.

*sigh*

Oh God that was awful. I feel like there are people out there who recognize something is popular but they don't understand what makes it good; in fact they don't like it that much but they play along. They think they will make it even "better" but end up making a mockery of it instead. I've seen it with TV shows with unexpected popularity, where all of a sudden it's like some third party comes in and drastically changes it, distorts it, not understanding the simple qualities that made it so great in the first place.
