[QUOTE="BiggusGeekus, post: 1674295, member: 1014"] Cheering Gungans do not bother me. Photoshopping whuzzhizname, the pretty-boy who played Anikin, into RotJ bothers me. I'd comment further on these changes but there's simply too much hate in my soul. George Lucas drinks the blood of puppies. I think that covers it. Moving on.... The first Willow sequel book was just stupid. They changed Willow's name, changed his character ([i]"What can change the nature of a man?"[/i] A really crummy writer, that's who!), blew up all the major cities in the original movie setting, killed off Madmartigan by around paragraph three, introduced a new warrior guy and explored his character only to kill him off in the end, introduce a new race of tall furry river guys for no real reason, and in general they ignored the movie and essentially created a new setting from scratch. I don't know why they even bothered to stamp the word "sequel" on the cover. It wasn't a sequel. It was a fantasy novel that ripped a couple of very minor characters from the Willow movie, the tiny little comic relief guys and the princess who is now a teenager. That's it! That's all that book is! Oh, and the whole story could have been circumvented in roughly fifteen minutes except that the renamed-Willow didn't feel like telling people who he was. He just sits back and let things go to crud. Really. I'm not making that up. There was more character consistency and motivation in the [i]Dungeons & Dragons movie[/i] than this piece of drek. Bah! Lucas! Festering crapweasel! [/QUOTE]
