TV's Frink Birthday Roast
Time

Frink is so old that when he was in school there was no history class.

Frink is so old, I found a fossil of his hair when I went to Death Valley in search of dinosaurs. 

Frink is so old that his birth certificate says "expired".

Frink is so old, he walked into an antique shop and they sold him.

Frink is so old you put him in a museum instead of an old folks home

Frink is so old, Jurassic Park brought back memories

Frink is so old he's got hieroglyphics on his Driver license

Frink is so old he knew Burger King while he was still a prince

All goofing aside;  Even though I do sometimes touch on it, you guys have no idea how much I hate the idea of the Prequels - as they were released.  The story, execution, casting, Lucas' revision of history, etc. I find it all vulgar.

A prequel story? - absolutely.  Prequel story Lucas released? - absolutely not.

The problem with the prequels - besides all the problems you listed - is that there can be no drama or tension when the outcome is already known to the audience. I mean, we know Obi-wan is not going to die in them right?

 

Oh yeah? Well what about historical movies then?

 

Take 'Apollo 13'. That movie is pretty suspenseful even though pretty much all of us know that the astronauts survived. However, it's in the execution that the movie is suspenseful.

When a movie is done well the can still be suspense, even though we know the outcome.
