[QUOTE="Wolfspider, post: 146077, member: 300"] Like I said, I need to learn to keep my trap shut. Seriously, I never said that I disliked Star Wars. On the contrary, I LOVE Star Wars. I've still got all the action figures from when I was a kid. I own all the movies. I've got the role-playing game and every suppliment for it. I even had a subscription to Star Wars gamer before it went belly up. I absolutely LOVE Star Wars. The original trilogy is a fun and exciting set of movies, although I do think that Episode I was a let-down. But that doesn't stop me from watching it almost every week with my six-year old daughter, who absolutely loves the movie (but hates Jar Jar with a passion). I saw the article this morning and read it completely, enjoying the points that the author made and generally agreeing with them. Knowing that some people on the board read Salon.com, I scanned the topics on the front page to make sure the article hadn't already been mentioned, and then I started a thread of my own. I had no intention of bashing Star Wars myself, since I think so highly of Star Wars myself. The world would be a much less glorious place to be without Star Wars. Where have I said in this thread that Star Wars sucks? In fact, where in ANY thread here at ENWorld have I said that Star Wars sucks? I still plan on boycotting the first week of AotC, but mainly so I can get a good feel of the movie from reviews and from comments here. Plus, the more that I think about it the more I realize that it was really unpleasant being in a packed movie theatre a few years back when i saw Episode I.... [/QUOTE]
