However, with that said, I wish you can stick up for the PT more often, especially when hostile individuals here bash everything from Jar jar to the overly-shiny armor of the Clone troops. It is unfair to hear and read these comments, and something I feel like I'm the only person on this message board who likes the PT and, as a result, am the only one getting bashed around here.

I just wrote a mildly sarcastic comment here, folks. No need to bring out swear-words. I do not see myself as a "hater", in fact I have spent and continue to spend a tremendous amount of time meditating on the deeper themes of the Star Wars saga,<br /><br />After the first two movies, Lucas sadly started to write down to children too much, diluting even serious battles with overly cartoonish caracters like Ewoks and Gungans. Happily, by "Revenge of the Sith" he finally regained his form and eliminated the clownish antics, producing a movie that is in many ways better than "Return of the Jedi". See? I'm not even a prequel-hater. <br /><br />Small amounts of lighthearted "silliness" can be quite OK, as a form of comic relief. Even in dark and serious Empire we have the scene where they discover that the Falcon has landed inside the belly of an enormous space monster -- and the brief scene doesn't hurt the movie at all. In fact, it is a welcome diversion.<br /><br />Unfortunately, but the third movie the cartoonish elements started to intrude on the main story-line and eclipse it. That was not a good thing, and it carried over into Phantom Menace many years later. Yet Clones was already noticably improved, and Sith was in many ways excellent, when Lucas finally stopped shying away from the dark and serious implications of his own story. <br /><br />Actually I think I would appreciate a (brief!) scene in the new trilogy where a Gungan and an Ewok appears TOGETHER and some character makes a remark to the effect, "Great! The two most annoying species in the galaxy meet!" That would be a nice touch of self-irony.<br /><br />I am somewhat taken aback that certain people seem to react to (what I intended as) mild sarcasm as if it were horrible, hateful blasphemy. Well, I guess Star Wars really IS a religion to some people ...Helge Kåre Fauskangerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07917877061381887511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4104469133277555786.post-43195451780880875282014-04-16T18:08:29.649+01:002014-04-16T18:08:29.649+01:00Yeah I'm sick to death of the rumours about Ga...Yeah I'm sick to death of the rumours about Gary Oldman and Harrison Ford and Mark Hamill and Carrie Fisher and Judi Dench and John Noble and Sullivan Stapleton and Ben Kingsley and Hugo Weaving and Michael Fassbender and Sigourney Weaver.

As much as I don't understands so called "fans" who feel the need to trash certain aspects of the franchise, you're being a little harsh there Raw. As pointless as Cenindo's comment was, he never accused you of claiming that Jar Jar was going to be in EpVII. We should all take the time to read what someone's comment actually is before being personally offended by it. And even if we don't agree with another's comment, make a sensible argument as to why you don't agree and keep the debate/discussion going. Telling them to go f**k themselves kills the debate/discussion and simply invites others to lower themselves to that level. To use an example from another franchise, if Prof. X and Magneto can have a mutual respect for one another despite being on opposite ends of the spectrum ie. human/mutant relations, surely all of us as Star Wars fans can have a mutual respect for each other despite our personal views on the OT, PT and the EU.Heathen Fetthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18157161961792775105noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4104469133277555786.post-74144903561129744812014-04-16T04:54:35.605+01:002014-04-16T04:54:35.605+01:00^Worth a look, Viral.
