This is a link post As some nerds are having hissy fits over the new Star Wars film not being blah snooze blah
Always a good reminder that they are lucky it is still about considering the original cut of Star Wars was complete fucking horse shit. Yes, editing can save films, but they worked a sodding miracle with this...

This is a normal post Although you are probably being a sarcastic prick
I'd recommend this book, it is a very good read on the craft of editing.

Book looks very interesting. Where were you when I was Christmas shopping? My old man would like it too.

This is a normal post i guess this explains why the prequels were so shit
be interesting to see if those prequels could be saved with a lot of editing. I know people have tried, but would be hard without adding a lot of bits

This is a normal post Apparently Han Solo dies or something
And people are all pissy because it's not 'canon', although canon to them is some 20 year old neckbeard's basement-written fan fiction and completely unofficial. I fucking love Star Wars, but get the fuck over it. It's just a film.

This is a normal post I liked it as a kid just like any other fun film
It was only in my teens I realised some people are a bit mental about it.

Being pissy about the prequels was mostly fair though

This is a normal post Totally agree about the prequels.
And about the completely unnecessary CGI makeover the original Trilogy received. But the hatred for the new movie seems to be a little overblown.

Where does Caravan of Courage, the Ewok film fit in their world view? Now that was a treat.
