This is an interesting read, and really, I think most of what he says makes sense. 

I'm not a rabid Star Wars fan, but enough that I can identify with a good bit of what he says. Particularly the edits that Lucas made and the CGI crap he did.  Of course the obligatory Ewok hate is there.

He also goes after the books for making a convoluted contradictory mess, and I agree with that assessment.  I have a pile of them that I had read during my yoot sitting in the back of my closet that I need to get rid of, I hardly remember them, which is a damning sign they were crap. 

He also goes after the animated series, which are all horrendous, and we all know it.  I couldn't even stomach watching the famed Holiday Special. 


But I will say he is 100% wrong on the KOTOR series(Knights of the Old Republic), it rules, end of story, HK47 in particular, rules. Of course, I also liked Jade Empire, which has a similar style to KOTOR, so maybe he is right.


I will say for the record, I have yet to watch II and III of the prequels.  I couldn't stomach it after having Jar Jar Binks inflicted on me.  Burn in hell Lucas!
