Yeah....... Lucas went crazy about 30 years ago. The evidence is the Christmas Special. But he couldn't have sold it to anyone better. It's obvious he trusts the Walt Disney Corporation with his work, perhaps even more than himself. These conversations have been comparing the originals to the prequels. I hope that medichlorians, Jar-Jar, and all the embarrassing stuff Lucas screwed up isn't mentioned. If that happens, all will be fine.

Unless they completely decimate the canon, there's no reason to be upset. In fact, it means they might be going even farther into the future.

FALSE.

Even Lucas detests that atrocity. He once said that if he could personally hunt down and burn every single copy of that horrific piece of shit, he would.

You mean they didn't actually hit people with the lightsabers during filming? For shame. Here's a secret, slow down any movie sufficiently and you'll start finding mistakes and fake outs. Sort of like when you get really close to the screen, you can see the pixels. The scene where Anakin and Obi-Wan go at each other does look really funny in GIF form. The idea was that they starting predicting each others attacks so well that they had to keep changing their path of attack. Then they both said fuck it and went with a Force attack.

That "Force attack" might have been the most unintentionally hilarious thing to come out of a Star Wars movie for me.

Pretty much this. Dismantling it makes the whole thing look ridiculous, but I didn't even notice the goofy bits when it was all going in sequence.

The screw ups in the new trilogy, soon to be the old-new trilogy, never bothered me overmuch. Mostly because I remembered the stupid stuff from the old trilogy. Lightsabers being swung like flyswatters. C-3P0. Ewoks. Storm Trooper Aim. I must have been the only kid who saw Han Solo and Boba Fett and was unimpressed. Solo struck me as a jerk, albeit a fun one. And I never got the Boba Fett love. He shows up, stands around menacingly, and then flies into a toothed anus. I think he had must have had a hell of a toy.

It shot a missile from its back. That was like the pinnacle of toy technology.

Not to mention every fanfiction WHOOPS I MEAN EXPANDED UNIVERSE fiction featuring Boba Fett basically turned him into the Chuck Norris of Star Wars.

I have never had an opinion about the movies, I kind of liked the prequels, so I am expectant and optimistic of what they'll do.

Fun fact: He was coughing because his lungs got crushed by Mace Windu

That's probably what he was alluding to.
