[QUOTE="Ankh-Morpork Guard, post: 2202872, member: 10079"] I'd be willing to bet that the majority falls into that group. I grew up on the originals. Sure, I'm too young to have seen them in the theaters when they were first released, but that doesn't change a thing. Sure, the Prequels aren't the same, but I still enjoy them and they're still fun movies. Anyone that doesn't know that Star Wars really is as simple as a 30s serial and calls themself a big fan is lieing through their teeth. Its nothing new at all. Lucas has been saying that for YEARS. Long, long before the prequels ever came out. But the thing is, the movie GREW into more than just a simple movie. Yes, it was a surprise to Lucas, but its definitely more than just a simple movie now. Not just in the underlying themes from the basic mythology, but from the way it completely changed filmaking. THAT is why Lucas is generally considered a Tolkien-like figure. Not because of this 'great world' he's created, but because of all he's done for the genre...and not only that, but for movies as a whole. But still, in the end, its all about the action. Anyone that denies that is an idiot, simply put. So really, Carl, I don't see what you're trying to say, other than that the whole extreme "Lucas killed my childhood" is stupid and annoying. We've known that for a long time. :) [/QUOTE]
