Frinkverse isn't canon? But actually I just assumed that his death in AOTR actually happened but Lucas cut it out of the movie because he has no respect for Ric.
I know who it is.
Wait for it...
...pat man
Well Luke dying would not have to be gruesome. It's not like Star Wars is too dark for character deaths SPOILERS the aforementioned Larses, Ben, Tarkin and co., Jabba, Boba, Yoda, Palps, Qui-Gon, Maul, Shmi, Jango, Dooku, Mace and co., and Ric Olie. END SPOLIERS
The triangle practically disappears from ESB because Luke spends most of his time away from the other two. Yeah, Leia professes her love for Han in ESB, which would seem to put a fork in it, but if she wasn't made Luke's sister, Luke still could've had interest in her which would have made for some interesting material in ROTJ.
Tarkin's the big bad and Vader's the dragon. Tarkin's in charge but Vader's the muscle and the real face of villainy.
In terms of romantic storyline, yeah there wasn't much left in ROTJ. But it didn't have to be that way. They could have done one of two things to keep the romance plot interesting in ROTJ:
1. Make the romance sub-plot be about Han saying "I love you" to Leia. Yeah, I know he did, but that was really a throwaway line. Han telling Leia "I know" was not just because he felt like it. That was his character. So what I'm saying is the Han/Leia arc could have developed Han into the guy who would say "I love you" back. If you know what I'm trying to say.
2. ANH and ESB set up a love triangle with Han, Leia, and Luke. ROTJ could have finally faced the triangle head.
But neither of these happened. Han's characterization sputtered, and Luke became Leia's brother. So, really, the romance potential in ROTJ was nixed not by ESB, but by Lucas (I think).
A quick Google search finds me someone who will save me a lot of time arguing this:

I remember years ago I used to argue against my friends who said ANH was the worst. But that was when we were kids. These people are grown adults? Do they have any sense of quality?

- I still don't know how to properly hyphenate ages. "Forty-two year-old" or "Forty-two-year-old"? Shirley it comes across wrong when I say "I like having sex with forty two year old women."
I think the one with all the hyphens. Unless, of course, you are an infant rapist.
One thing that really annoys me is when people say you can't end sentences with prepositions. Yeah, you can.
Also, people who think that it's incorrect to respond to "How are you?" with "I'm good" are just plain wrong.
Wait I already answered this question in the thread submission thread.
Wait is it red maple trees?
Forwent
Am I the only one who feels like this thread is accomplishing nothing besides animosity? Why can't we all just get along? I tried to lighten things up, not only did that not work, but I still don't know what a playgroud is.
So I respectfully suggest that everyone vacate this thread and never return to it.
Yes and the third will probably be closer still. Also, Bingo, this edit might do it for you:

ender, for the love of god just change the thread title and get this guy off of his playgroud thing.
Don't think you can stop this.
A Google search for playgroud doesn't come up with any definitions unfortunately. But I did find this: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Kings-Grant-Playgroud/112103088843617
It has a review, one star out of five: "Most corrupt park on da westbank."
Could this be HotRod's playgroud? Who knows? Ender I suppose. Time will tell if he's going to fess up.

I see you conveniently avoided my question about the "playgroud." You bastard, don't think I didn't notice! I will learn what a playgroud is even if it takes me until the end of time.
This guy makes a good point.

I actually drive a 2003 Golf. Got it last year. Very reliable.
What's a playgroud?
I think he made a thread where he listed all the things he didn't like, so basically that
Ah I see, my bad. Thanks again.
My favorite is the Patrick Stewart one, though, in fairness, I haven't seen it in some time.
I actually see a local theater company put on A Christmas Carol every year with my family, so I'm pretty familiar with the material and would probably be a good judge of any adaptations if I decided to watch them.
I never knew that Twilight Zone episode was actually how people viewed hell. Interesting, thanks for the clarification.
Thanks
