THIS THREAD WOULD NOT EXIST IF YOU PAID ATTENTION TO WHAT I WAS SAYING EVERY FILM AFTER EMPIRE IS DEEPLY FLAWED AND NOW I HAVE TO STOP THE MOVIES ON A CLIFFHANGER BECAUSE I AM FORCED TO REJECT THE THIRD FILM THAT MEANS THE OT IS BROKEN BECAUSE LUCAS PURGED KURTZ AND PLUNGED US ALL INTO THE TENTH LEVEL OF HELL AND THIS HAPPENED BEFORE I WAS ALIVE LUCAS MAY HAVE WALKED AWAY FOR GOOD BUT THE ABUSE STILL HAPPENED AND I WILL KEEP SCREAMING UNTIL I GET THE ANSWERS I NEED.
