Actually the last one is more disturbing.

You would rate Blue Brothers higher had you seen the sequel, Blues Brothers 2000.

One of the worst movies i have ever seen. I am surprised it even got theatrically released and not just straight to tv and video.

I did see Blues Brothers 2000, once, back in 2001, and I recall liking it a lot. Suffice it to say, though, that means absolutely nothing since I liked a lot of stuff back then that I don't anymore, and vice-versa.

I'm too indifferent about Bieber or his fans, all the hate is pointless, his target audience is not you, so why should you care?

Let's just say that if I had had complete control over all the media in my house, I might not have cared.

yeah, I've never been too comfortable with some of the Old Testament stuff. I've often wondered if those kinds of things were truly ordered by God, or did the people back then just think it was, or did they make it up to use an excuse to justify the slaughter they wanted to do?

I'd say it was a mixture of the latter two. If any entity approximating the Christian God exists, then He had no part in the genocides commited in the OT - that, or He "grew up" sometime between the OT and NT, mellowing out and losing a lot of his wrathfulness. Inerrancy goes out the window in either case (not that that's a bad thing IMO).

Ferris Bueller's Day Off

A real good sweet, warm-hearted comedy. Maybe it's because I didn't grow up with it, but I sympathised a lot more with the adult characters than maybe I should've done. I also didn't particularly like the Ferris Bueller character very much, I know he was supposed to be cool and 'rad' for skipping school, but having gone through that phase myself in my life it really bothered me.

This.

In regards to the "What will they do with the EU" question, I think they'll simply set Episode VII at whenever they're at now in the books (40 years after ROTJ). Even if it blatantly ignores everything that's happened, they can at least retcon certain things easier than just saying "oh yeah, by the way, Episodes VII VIII and IX happened only 20 years after Jedi and the characters just NEVER mentioned it afterward."

If that happens, I will commit metaphorical murder/suicide.

true, but can you find me anyone that believes a mouse has a human soul?

Well, wouldn't Hindus/Buddhists believe that could happen, what with good/bad karma determining what a person becomes in the next life?

If the films need to pick up one thing from the PT it's Padme.

Luke has had his relationship with his father dragged out over three films.

The character of Padme kind of rolled into the dirt in ROTS.

Wouldn't Luke want to know more about her?

Wouldn't Leia become closer to her fragmented memories of her now that the Empire is gone?

If the OT was about absent fathers I think this one should be about absent mothers.

Both are mythical tropes and it would be interesting to explore the Star Wars universe from a more female perspective.

That would be crap......Star Wars the chick Trilogy

It wouldn't necessarily have to be crap. We're talking about Padme here, though, a vapid, dimensionless character who deserves to be retconned out of existence, so yeah, it would be crap concentrating on her.

I have no interest in an "official" fan-edit of the PT. Start from scratch or not at all.
