Well at least you were polite, unlike a lot of people here.
On the contrary, I typically frequent other sites such as TFN and I find most of those users to be far less respectful of our opinions, than we of theirs.
I have always believed that most people at TFN are just 'circling the wagons' for Lucas as they don't believe half of the shit they defend about the PT movies.
I say this because I used to talk to alot of people there off the record through Private Messages, and THEN they would tell me they thought the PT movies were inferior to the OT, but they just didn't like the Lucas/PT bashing, so they felt it was their duty to defend the cause.
If you notice the way they defend the PT at TFN is take down the OT to make their argument. If someone says the Anakin/Padme dialogue in AOTC was horrendous, they will respond, "Well, all dialogue in SW is horrendous, so there is no difference between the trilogies!" Or if you point out the flaws in the PT movies (Like Padme dying from the will to live despite Leia saying her mom died while she was very young), they argue that all of the OT movies had major flaws and none of them were perfect. Or if you say the PT movies catered to kids because of Jar Jar, etc, they argue they were always made for kids, which goes against their argument when they say the 'Tragedy of Darth Vader' is a Shakespearean tragedy that has deep meaning behind it!
So they are essentially saying they love a bunch of SW movies that have bad dialogue, loads of flaws, and cater to kids! LOL!
