I remember hearing about this some time back. It just...comes off as pretty stupid to me. But that's just me.

After all, I think Return of the Jedi's the best of the three originals, so right there I'm already not a good enough Star Wars fan. Cool

I agree with the sentiment that the people who say Lucas xxxxed their childhoods are absurd. For one - if you don't like the prequels you can just ignore them. They, at the end of the day, have no impact on the OT if you don't let them.

I love The Godfather I and II... but I despise and loathe Godfather III. So I don't watch it. I don't happen to like TPM or ATOC all that much - so I don't watch them. I do enjoy ROTS and watch it about once a month. And as much as I hate Jar Jar (sorry JJ fans)... he can't bother me if I don't watch him.

I do think some people have some valid complaints about GL and the choices he's made. But the people that think he somehow wronged them or harmed them... very silly.

nicely put

and I also like ROTJ best as well

See I am glad I can finally come out and say this without getting flogged.

i love Return of the Jedi. I thought it was awesome. I even like the Ewoks.

Doubt i will see this, I still haven't even seen FanBoys.

Fanboys is a must see, go buy it now (I think it is $10 now)
you can always give it to someone else that is a SW fan

I liked the Ewoks as a kid too.
sorry, but you can't go wrong with ROTJ (IMHO)
you have Jabba, Slave Leia, Space battle, Endor battle, Lightsaber duel, and the climax to the original trilogy ...

I guess other than Boba Fett getting it, that's all I can disagree with right off.

hmm, maybe my kids need to get out the Ewok Village ...
