If you’re anything like me, then you wish George Lucas had never made a Star Wars film after Return of the Jedi. The bad scripts and sub-par acting are practically more than I can bear. As much as it pains me to ponder, I accept this harsh reality. The weaker of heart choose to live in denial regarding it–like this man, for example. Perhaps it’s for the best.
The Star Wars universe has experienced its fair share of developments in last ten years. What was once viewed as an untouchable storyline in the 1980s has evolved into a totally new kind of saga. Fans saw pristine acting and storylines driven by characters substituted with sappy love stories and special effects. Don’t get me wrong, the prequels had their moments, but I don’t think many would tell you they “wowed” them more than the original trilogy. So, yeah yeah, we’ve heard this before, you’re saying. Why all this talk about the prequels years after their release? Well, someone had to go and make the suggestion that Lucas Arts’ newest video game, The Force Unleashed, be made into a motion picture, and I just thought I’d be the first to say, hell no… unless they abide by my stipulations, of course.
