Does Anyone Need More Star Wars Movies?
Oh please, God, make it stop. Bought by Disney ensures even more dreck foisted on fans, then director's cuts with 30 more seconds of footage.
But Dan, some say, you have to see it in theatres for full effects. Me sa so sorry, why would I want to see Jar Jar Binx on a big screen.?
What next, Return of the Jar Jar?
Found at First Draft.

Geeks Without Humour
Gosh, who knew geeks had zero sese of humour. C'mon, let your geek flag fly. besides, every 1 of parody statements true.
["Star Wars" fans have not taken kindly to recent ridicule from Miami's WPLG Local 10 News. Instead, they've started a worldwide -- er, intergalactic -- campaign to demand a “formal public apology" from the station, whose Facebook has been flooded by angry comments.
The fandom accuses Local 10 of cyberbullying in the "very rude and insulting" captions of a since-removed online slideshow of a recent "Star Wars" convention in Orlando. A few examples of the jabs, according to screenshots saved on Facebook:
"A reproduction of their prom picture... no girls."
“Someone got lost looking for the AARP convention.”
"Dateless men for as far as they eye can see. "
"These were a group of guys that spent the entire weekend jumping into other people's pictures. It was MUCH lamer than it sounds."
"Here's a shocker... it's dudes taking pics of the fake Princess Leias. Like they've never seen a woman before. Well, hmmm..."]

God Hates Jedi: Star Wars convention VI kicks off in Orlando
Star Wars mania still goes on, like a bad 70's mullet hair cut? Geez, 2 OK movies and 4 crappy ones--each getting worse and worse, so bad that "Jar Jar Binks" has become a synonym for writers and directors who equate making tons of Money with making a quality product.
My ever ironic goddess, has this "franchise" gone on longer than the centuries of the Olympics or the seeming recent NBC eternity of coverage of synchronized swimming and rhythmic dance? Quit kidding me, Lucas finds another 13 seconds of cutting room footage and issues a new director's cut every 10 years,soon to hit theatres in 3D and still banks major ducats?

{Cynical synapses overload: "families brought together" and "ever evolving," we'll have another Lucas cartoon piece of crap called "Clone Contrtemps."
Get a freakin' life, people}
Lissen up, Sudsy sez start happy hour!
