So it's official. As NYC recovers from Sandy, Disney have bought Lucasfilm. Sequel trilogy to starwars to follow.
Woah. Let me take a breath. Ok, now let me get incredibly angry. Now let me calm down again. I'm not really that offended by this per se, i'm not sure when i last watched a LucasFilm erm film that i liked. It might have been Return of the Jedi. It definitely wasn't those bloody Ewok films (did they do those?). It DEFINITELYDEFINITELY wasn't that last Indiana Jones debacle (y'know, Indiana Jones and the Nuclear Fridge?).
I lived in the 80's when there was NO MORE STAR WARS. Return of the Jedi was it. Those characters were history, dude. There was a droids cartoon, and the ewok shit. But that doesnt count. For years i yearned for more, and there wasnt. Then i grew up, discovered booze, girls. Well more booze than girls. And then....a lifetime later, there was more Star Wars!!!! Yay!!!!
And it was shit.
It was the Phantom Menace. And god, it was....sooooooo bad. Liam Neeson made for a good Jedi but......
Well, i wont go into that one. The Prequels got a little better with the other two. But they were still shit!
Shit Shit Shit Shit.
Then there was a cartoon (The clone wars, not bad actually, but still based on the prequels), there has been talk of a live action show for years, dont know whats happening with that. Theres more Star Wars now than you can shake a hard, dry piece of Bantha poo at. And thats watered it down. There ya go, thats my two cents.
