"I think the fans are going to love it."

In 1984 I would have sided with Lucas, but after the prequels ... I don't know. I guess I'll know on Dec. 18.

As we learned with The Empire Strikes Back.... the less that George is directly involved, the better the movie is. I'm just looking forward to the possibility of decent dialogue for once.

David Bleecher I don't get why everyone hates George so much. You act like every single word of dialogue was garbage. To hear people talk, the prequels are some of the worst movies in history. I'm honestly surprised some nut hasn't taken a shot at him yet.

Matthew Christiansen I don't hate George, I think that he had a spectacular vision but is a shitty writer. Just read the dialogue between Anakin and Padme. I've seen porn with better dialogue. He definitely has strengths, but decent dialogue is one of his greatest weaknesses. Disney recognized this and nixed his script.

Plus, George has famously stated that he wrote the prequels to be viewed "silently." That is, the movies were supposed to be watched sans the dialogue with only the character's actions telling the story. Personally, I think that's a BS answer that was designed by a PR department to explain the shoddy scripts.

I'll admit, George is a great story teller, but he fails miserably as a director and stumbles as a writer.

So, I asked Andrew Tamm, who filled my Stream with a hundred (sarcasm there) animated gifs and cat pictures to remove me from whatever Circle he has me in where he posts the animated gifs and cat pictures. It was either that or unfollow him and I didn't see any reason to unfollow him.

I'm shutting down Google+ for the night and quite possibly for the weekend. Why? This stupid #gifwars thing people are so proud of. This Adam Black guy said he doesn't like gifs and now everyone is mass trolling him. Having been mass trolled like this I can relate to him easily enough. Have an opinion and the collective might of Google+'s lower class denizens jump on a bandwagon. I just saw a post where someone wanted to jump on board and had to get clarification she was tagging the proper Adam Black. She wasn't even connected to him ! Nor was she a part of the original discussion. She just wanted to follow the herd. When I called her out of it she claimed, "one gif doesn't make a troll." Perhaps not, but she's contributing to a larger troll effort. One straw doesn't break the camel's back, but thousands will. So, tonight, Google+ disgusts me. It probably will tomorrow as well. And possibly Sunday. I gave up Google+ for two months this spring
