Jeez why didn't you say so in the first place? Had I known you were one of thousands of failed film makers out of film school.....it explains everything.

Judging from your other posts in these forums, it seems that your juvenile mind can't comprehend the fact that STAR WARS is not a great film. About the only noteworthy thing about it is John Dykstra's motion control special effects and very good model making. It is a good children's movie. I took my 6 and 10 year old boys to see it when it first came out and they enjoyed it and went straight out and bought several miniature dolls to play with in their sand box. The 10 year old is now a lawyer in Boston, the 6 year old is now a major in the Air Force and flies C-130s in Afghanistan and my daughter is a Vet. I've taught college courses in television production and media for the last 25 years and tried to equip young minds for the professional media. I don't think you want to discuss cinema with me. So why don't you go get your OB1 Kenoby doll and maybe your Darth Vader doll and go to your sandbox and play. If that doesn't work then try sitting on your haunches contemplating your navel like a good little monkey.

You know what they say...Those who can't, teach.
"I don't think you want to discuss cinema with me."
If all ya got is dumb ass insults you would be right. Show me a little substance and we can talk "cinema." So far all I see is pretentious posturing.
Failed/wannabe film makers who turn into pompous armchair critics with nothing other than the ability to regurgitate the same crap they were fed in some college class on "cinema" and piss all over other peoples' successes in the film business are a dime a dozen.
Your mischaracterizations of Star Wars, your failure to discriminate between your personal tastes and objective measures of cinematic excellence, your broad brush strokes used to paint the evils of "Hollywood" all in tandem with your failure to offer anything in the way of a critique of substance on Star Wars demonstrates all the earmarks of a pompous twit standing on a soapbox in his birthday suit, fully exposed.

Guess I struck a nerve
teach. Teaching requires dedication and sacrifice; two things that obviously are foreign to your sensibilities.
