Fan Backlash

If you didn't notice i'm being sarcastic.

OMG I was LIVID when that pic was released!! 😠

I have been a big defender of HS since it started. For me watching the webcam, even on the crappy days, was a heck of a lot of fun. I love the early webdocs, the post notes, set diaries, Pabs updates, some of the KVs and MOST of the BTHs. So it has been worth the money for the most part. The only reason I am mad now is because GL is supposedly SOOOOO anti Hollywood. Yet he totally screws his loyal to a fault fan base and gives the trailer not only to Fox (which is ALMOST understandable seeing as how they ditribute it) but also to AOL members who haven't paid one figgin cent! Now THAT makes me furious! And yes it is his 'intellectual property' and he can burn the film reels in effigy if he likes, BUT dont give us all this crap about how great HS is for 3 years then expect us to be happy when we get screwed.

So then...you wouldn't have a clue about what I'm talking about. Hyper$pace sucks because they are charging for what WAS free for the first two films and the special editions. AND there have always been leaks outside of what was officially released. How LFL is handling this film is much more aggressive than how they handled it in the past.

So from someone who has been around SW Online for 9 Years, giving T'Bone an ultimatum like that is freakin' dumb.

Well, When TPM first came I went to starwars.com and stuff but didn't know anything about message boards or stuff getting leaked.

They certainly aren't lacking on the money side... jeez. Only the most successful scifi saga ever...

Hyperspace has been crap from the beginning....

Well...I should clarify...I do like some of the new content ideas...like the old bantha tracks...but I'd never pay that much EVERY YEAR.

As far as the episode III stuff...none of it is worth that much. But then to get double raped for fan club and hyperspace?

Sigh... I have been listening to the HS griping for years now. I understand why alot of people dont like HS. Great, Fine, Yada Yada Yada. So :
a) hush already, its old and annoying
b) stop leeching the pics that HS members post on boards like these, its hypocritical at best
c) find another franchise to belittle, I love SW so enough already

in their defense, they could say that its the rod that lifts Vader (in Mask) into position. That will be the first scene in ROTS that we see Vader as we know him in the OT.

Not that im taking their side....

Ok, thats great, really. But there are HUNDREDS of other posters out there who moan & groan about HS, never pay a dime for it but are all too happy to take the pics whenever they can, That's who I am talking about. If you pay for HS then by all means complain away, You paid your money for that right. Its the ones who dont pay anything for it & still complain that I have a problem with.
