Fine I'll take the teim to address his miscontruals.
1) there was nothing in anything that I said to imply anyone had mental instability. That was just blatant misrepresentation and an intentionally demeaning one.
2) his second response was off subject and irrelevant. If I didn't think I was right, I wouldn't believe what i believe. So naturally someone else will be wrong. I'm not grading or evaluating anyones ability to interpret a movie or to say anything about it. However, if I were, I would stand by what i said. complaints that Lucas is ruining his own dream are absolutely stupid (note, before I get any flak about using the word "stupid," Entropy, nor anyone here, has said stuff along this lines in this thread, nor can I point to a specific time when any of you have said it, so I am *not* calling anyone, or their ideas stupid). He's been very clear in recent interviews that he is realizing his own dream. What they MAY mean, if they're doing anything accurate, is saying that he's contradicting the VIEWER'S previous understanding of what was going on. The two ideas are very incongruous, and frankly, every complaint I've heard about the prequels ruining all of Star Wars sound an awful lot like fanboy whining. Thus the arguments i'm against are not well formulated or rational, and were they written in a film criticism paper would deserve a very poor grade on a paper.
So yes, I'm right. I do believe what I said, or I wouldn't have said it. And no, I'm not being unfair in my assessment. I may be wrong, but I have rational and textual reasons for what I'm saying.
Note, that NONE of this says that you're wrong about not liking them. There are plenty of reasons not to like them, but the complaint that they are completely out of synch with the feel and ideals of the original trilogy are bunk. complain about poor scripting, dialog, acting, sure. talk about that. Don't make up some weak fanboy betrayal mechanism into the equation. That's just weak.
