You know, I read the headline to this article and my geeky soul positively shrieked in joy, even as I knew that with Darth Lucas’ thumb in this pie, he’s going to be pulling a lump of shit instead of a plum out through the crust.
It’s just an automatic reaction; I’m powerless against it. Even though he’s managed to turn the Star Wars legacy into nothing more than a corporate cash cow with no soul to speak of, even though he’s a talent-free, money-grubbing, pretentious, arrogant hack with stupid fucking hair, I am still so deeply in love with the original trilogy, I still believe in that story so much, that I can’t help but get excited. Hell, I even still watch the prequels. I’m a passionately, incurably devoted Star Wars geek.
Note that I did NOT say “deluded.”
I suppose it’s the eternally optimistic romantic in me that’s hoping against all the odds that this actually turns out to be something awesome. It won’t, but a geek can dream, can’t she?
I hate you, George Lucas. I hate you. With gobs of flaming hate sauce.
