I know you are just being a loltroll
But even a die hard Star Wars geek knows this + George Lucas couldn't write decent dialogue if his life depended on it. The plot is paper thin and really stupid and Luke is an annoying cunt BUT to a 7 year old boy it was the most fantastic thing ever.

I held a certain amount of nostalgic love for the original films but I didn't own a replica lightsaber or go to conventions or own every incarnation of the film ever churned out by Lucas film but because of that amazing day in 1977 when I was 7 I loved them.

With the new batch of films Lucas' faults were magnified 1000 fold and when I have re-watched the originals with my daughter they looked almost as bad as the new batch...the cunt

And like a dog returning to in's own vomit it'll be queuing to see what JJ Whatshisface will make of episode 7*

*too much fucking lens flare probobly

I think the original trilogy holds up pretty well (George's revisions notwithstanding),
probably because other directors are involved for 2 thirds of it.

Also, Ewoks defeating a legion of the Emperor's finest troops, is awesome.

the emperor's finest troops can't shoot for shit
that's why the empire barely lasts twenty years ... it's fucking rubbish

Don't get me wrong I still like them
but the new films have made me see the flaws that I didn't see before.

Mind you Luke in the 1st one was an insufferable whiny cunt most of the way through... even when I was a kid...I wanted to be Han

The Ewoks!?...now you're being silly ;)

he was a whiny little cunt in all three
just like his dad was a whiny little cunt in all the prequels

i surmise that lucas was a whiny little cunt as a kid and the entire franchise is therapy for all the bullying he received as a whiny little cunt kid

the whiny little cunt

han represents the school bully who he desperately wanted to befriend
yoda is probably some friendly geography teacher who touched him up

My Tivo box managed to record this after an episode of Todd and the Book of Pure Evil the other week
You're not far off

Years back I played a Star Wars drinking game with a few friends
One of the rules picked out of the hat was that I had to "Drink every time Luke whines". I was wasted before Empire even began.

Anyone not enjoying the scenes on Endor
has approached the film with entirely the wrong mindset. Even Phantom Menace is almost enjoyable if you look at it through the eyes of a child (except it's really fucking boring, as are the other prequels).

Yes indeed I mean
Any film that's going to be about space taxes and senate meetings that's still targeted at children (mainly) needs to seriously look at itself in the mirror (metaphorically and physically) and admit it's got the basics wrong.

Say what you like about Captain Lensflare.
I think he's doing an immensely enjoyable job with the Star Trek canon.

I read that he's shooting Ep 7 on film instead of digital
One of the reasons being that (apparently) you can't do lensflare with digital cameras.
