Why is digital a problem.

Why is question not punctuated with a question mark?

Your first idea is the more original, intriguing one. I’d suggest running with that one.

I think I’m gonna watch JP tonight. That’s one movie which knew how to utilize its CG properly.

Even when I say it’s okay not to know super obscure characters I still get shade thrown at me…This fucking fandom

I was just looking for a reason to post a link to that article.

Why Michael Ironside needs to be in a future SW film:

The Final Frontier is at least better than Search For Spock.

Spaceballs > Ridiculous Menace

That depends. Are we talking about the pre or post-Crisis comics?

The thing everyone has to remember is that Lucas was creating a kids movie. His target demographic was kids age 7-13. Its impossible to be objective as an adult and watch the pequals with the same child like filter we had when the originals came out. As bad, no as horribly atrocious, as the Star Wars Holiday special was, as an 8 yr old, I craved it! I couldnt wait to watch it once I knew it was coming out. Then roughly 30 years later when I got a copy of it and watched it again, I about lost my lunch it was so bad. But as an 8 yr old, I filtered out the crap, the bad acting, the fact Carrie was high on acid or drunk one, and enjoyed visiting with my favorite Star Wars heros in a different setting again. I remember my Dad making a comment several years ago about the bad acting in ANH. In my mind Im thinking, “Bad acting? You had some world class actors in that movie. How could it be bad?” But TOT is so ingrained in our minds and psyche, that its next to impossible to be objective when watching it. Fast forward to the prequals. As adults, in contrast, it is impossible to watch with the objectiveness of a childs mind. The one thing that came through for me, was the love in my heart for these movies. The prequals are like a red-headed step child that you grow to love, no matter how bad it is. I can remember as a kid listening to Obi-Wan tell Luke about his father and the clone wars, and my imagination running wild trying to create scenes of what the clone wars mightve looked like. Or a young Obi-Wan side by side with Anakin in his prime. The prequals gave us a glimpse of that, but through the muddied,cynical mind of an adult. Yeh, its not what we imagined as kids, but at least we have something as a referance, albeit kind of bad. I have not yet sensed a disturbance, but I do try my best to summon my inner 7, 10 and 13 yr old everytime I hear of something new from the Star Wars universe coming my way. The most recent thing being the discovery of TN1’s Silver Edition a week or so ago. Ive sat and watched it on my projector screen 2 or 3 times and everytime Im whisked away to that place a 7yr old me was the first time I saw it.

This is just an elaborate redressing of that old “Yeah, the acting in the PT kinda sucked, but it was just as bad in the OT, too.” canard, isn’t it?

I’m living in a cuckoo clock!

Vegas Vacation was on the mediocre side, but still tolerable. European Vacation, on the other hand – that was shit; I don’t know why it doesn’t get more hate than it does.

Alas, when I frinkiaced “black Smithers”, it failed to turn up this image:

Allow me to retort:

1. Christopher Reeve is NOT Clark Kent. There is none worse.

2. This.

I like TMP, and I think Final Frontier has its pros, but still, the best of the Trek films?!

Immature swagmasta, was Immature.

Let’s not forget the Jedi Purge lasting all of a couple hours.

I personally never expected – or wanted – all the Jedi to be wiped out with the close of the PT. I fully expected Ep. III to end with the extermination of the Jedi Council members and the razing of the Jedi Temple – and perhaps with the young Jedi children (I refuse to use the Y-word) taken into custody to be reprogrammed into dark Jedi – but nothing more than that; I figured most of the other Jedi would perish off-screen in the years between the two trilogies in various skirmishes with Vader and other Imperial agents.

But noooo, Lucas had to have the Jedi go out in the lamest way conceivable – shot in the back by CG Temueras.

Lazy me, was Lazy.

Its existence.
