Revalation from a dream: I don't care about these people anymore.

Star Wars is dead, long live Star Wars.

I dreamed I was angsting over whether I was going to see the new Star Wars movie or not. It was being built up to a big thing in the dream. Finally, when Sandstrom showed up, I burst out, "I don't care about these people anymore!", which is the most deadly phrase that the fans of anything can say.

Dream-Sandstrom grinned and said that he was going to watch the last movie -- he was going to use it and then get out of there. It wasn't the good stuff but he didn't care -- and this is the last one.

He cannot write a single thing.
He only cares about the bling.

I guess I care what happens to Obi-Wan Kenobi, but I know he turns out OK. So does R2. So does Darth Vader. (I care about Darth Vader, but not about whinypants.) So I already know what eventually happens to these people. I don't care what happens in Episode 3. Star Wars is dead.

Sad, but true that.

Episode Two was better than Episode One, so I'm hoping that Episode Three will be better than Episode Two.

Plus we get to see the whiny little bitch get his head kicked in. I reckon it'll close with him putting on the Darth Vader mask, but before that can happen Obiwan has to pummel him into the dirt.

On the downside, I've already heard that that is supposed to be the longest fight sequence in the history of cinema, which is making me think about how they drew out the pod race sequence until I wanted to slash my wrists.

Either way, I personally have no choice in the matter. I married 'Amy Fortuna', Star Wars slash writer of great renown. Also, I'll be going to Worldcon that year, and I don't think they'd let me in if I'd not seen it.

Episode Two was acceptable. If Episode Three does better than 'acceptable' I'll be happy. As with number two, I'm not going to go in with high expectations.

Boycotting is pretty pointless, because all the more rabid fans won't and it'll make a ton of money anyway. It could be 90 minutes of Jar-Jar Binks maturbating over VHS copies of the original (pre-Special Edition) films, and it would still make a ton of money.
