Title: "I feel a great disturbance in the Force...", by Jon

It is as if 23 years of my life cried out and were suddenly silenced.

I'm not sure if I can ever watch Star Wars (of any kind) ever again.


Wait... you mean Jon's been alive for more than 23 years? Colour me shocked. I thought most people older than 23 had a better grip on reality, let alone trivial things like, you know, grammar. And taste.

Boo hoo hoo. Jon doesn't like RotS? I'm sure George Lucas isn't going to be able to sleep tonight. He's probably a quivering wreck because of the Mean Nasty People who say Bad Things about his work. Actually, no. Because George Lucas has some common sense.

By all means, Jon, leave Star Wars behind. It's not going to devolve into porn. The protagonist is not going to turn into a sex-driven moron. Besides, Star Wars is a fandom where fans can actually have their say and DEBATE things without being insulted or vaguely threatened by the creator. No, Jon, this isn't the fandom you're looking for; move along, move along.

(Sorry. I adore Star Wars, faults and all, and I'm as willing to bitch about it as I am to gush. Whiny brats like Jon, however, irritate me. Unless, of course, he was trying to be secretly witty and he actually liked the movie. I'm not holding my breath.)

ETA: All-praise to the beautifully subtle [livejournal.com profile] freyalorelei for pointing out that I was missing words. In a post where I was insulting someone else's grammar, no less. Bad me. (Hey, at least I admit to the error!)

See, thing is, George Lucas hears bad things about Star Wars all the time. Then he looks at his bank account, laughs (possibly in an evil overlord type way), and just gets on with things ignoring the nasty mean people. So far as he's concerned, he rocks - millions in the bank like that don't lie.

So, evidently, despite being Queen of the Universe, LKH's paycheque obviously isn't anywhere big enough to be able to truly ignore the little people. Instead, she has to cling onto the notion that she's better than everyone else by insulting them rather than having a nice bank account full of shiny coins to prove that she's fantastic.
