If Disney told you to stop breathing would you do it, or would you think for yourself and say "no, I'll keep on breathing."

Says who? A bunch of suits? I don't let suits tell me what to enjoy and what not to. I adore those characters so to me they exist.

If Disney thinks they can tell me how to live my life, they can get stuffed. I apologize for saying this, but it seems to me like people here are acting like brainwashed drones that only think what Disney tells them to.


No one gives half a shit what you think. You're entitled to like what you want but yes, Disney does in fact decide what is canon or not in Star Wars.

Did you ignore the part where you're post began with "not really" as a response to my "we already had that"? Don't open with a contradictory sentence fragment and then b*tch that the rest was overlooked. Your presentation sucks.

This is getting sadder with each post you make.

I didn't like the acting in ROTS and couldnt take it serious enough to consider it dark and philosophical since the trilogy was filmed for little kids. Simple as that. So stop trying to start conflicts out of nothing with that childish attitude of yours.

Revenge of the Sith:


Was, or was it not, rated PG-13?

Only because of the ending(where Kenobi cuts Anakin's legs-arm and lets him burn).

It doesn't mature up the rest of the movie. By the way, Im not saying they should change the concept in the next movies. Just saying that this style of movies aren't for my taste.

Errr... Anakin murdering children, Windu getting his arm cut off, face melted and thrown out of a window... Dooku getting beheaded, Grievous' head literally immolating, pretty much Order 66 in its entirety.

There were a shit ton of dark scenes in this movie- and more darkly portrayed death then in any of the other films. If they had made the scenes anymore graphic, the movie would have been R.

No, each person decide what is canon to him/her. If you don't like something that happens in a series, you can chose to ignore it. That is because we, as humans, have a gift called free will. You need to start thinking for yourself.

Here's the thing: Once the new ones are made, we'll have... *both* versions!

The old ones won't go away, there just won't be new stuff made for them.


I'm a fan of many things that have multiple continuities.

Star Wars movies have always been for kids. I don't know any Star Wars lovers who wasn't a kid when they first saw the movies - whether that was OT or PT.

The comics and novels and whatnot can provide a progression of sophistication for a maturing fan to discover on his or her personal journey of fandom, but to make an adult movie - movies being the point of entry for most fans - would be a huge departure. I would guess Disney will aim for the same level Marvel has in their Avengers related movies.

Im perfectly happy if they don't make new Star Wars. However, since they are, am giving it a chance. Excited, but also cautious cause it may turn out to ruin things further. If lucas did ep 7-9, might be a different story. But, curious to see how it turns out without lucas. Disney will make a fortune, so the risk to there investment is low. Fans get what they get I guess...

Disneys stocks been growing for the past years. Was thinking of buying when they bought lucas film. If ep7 sucks I hope they take a hit. Although it probably won't with all the crap they can do with it. Merchandise, rides, etc. The true fans will get shot, but there's still the not knowing any better kids that will help disneys industry.

Also, no pressure on Abrams to make his dec 2015 date no matter what....

Well, with how many of the "True Fans" became whiny bitches about the PT, I'm not really concerned at all about what the True Fans think. The True Fans are also seem like the type that don't like Michael Bay Transformers films despite how well they do.

I for one hope the Sequel Trilogy performs very well and they deliver a good Star Wars experience. No matter what is produced, no matter how good, no matter how well it performs, there will still be a ridiculous number of "True Fans" that will whine about the ST. They enjoy being contrarians. They enjoy hating popular things. Every major niche geeky thing has these types.* It just so happens that Star Wars is the biggest of these niches.


*I've seen it in the following things:

Magic: The Gathering
Warhammer 40,000
Star Trek
Dune
LotR and Hobbit films
Comic Books
Popular Manga Series
Stuff in the Horror genre (film and books)



Just seems quite common. People love to complain and contradict. That's okay: I don't like everything, as well. But geeky types, like we are (I consider it a compliment) are pretty dang picky about some things and they should be allowed to be. That's what makes it fun to be a geek: arguing with your friends about the stuff you love. smile

The ST will hook a new generation of fans, and those who become 'true fans' will have plenty of EU stuff to satisfy their geek needs.
