[OT] More George Lucas bashing.

No one can deny that Star Wars was one of the most inspirational films of the last 100 years. It blew everyone away and established the term block buster. I believe for many that Star Wars holds a special spot in their hearts that will never fade. Par none, I have seen Star Wars more times than I have seen any other movie ever made. I would still go to a Theater and watch it again if it were re-re-re-re-re-released.

Star Wars is a real undenyable WORLD ICON, one of the greatest films of all time, and should be viewed as the 10th Wonder of the world.

That said, WTF went wrong with Episodes I, II, and III?

Maybe I'm hopelessly old-time, but I'd word it "WTF went wrong with Episodes V, VI, I, II, and III?".

The original was everything you said. For years I'd have called it the best movie ever made (as I got older I granted that title to "Casablanca", but SW would still be #2). All the charm of the original was shredded in the first sequel, though.
