Re: Han shot first
Jesus, Trey.....can I have your babies?
The answer is no. No, I can't, I'm a dude. Stupid question.
Re: Han shot first
I don't like to let go. George raped our childhoods and I want him to pay for it. I know that he never will but doesn't mean I can't want it.
As for Simon Pegg, I don't even know who that is. (Shows how much I know)
George made a movie about a rebelion that took down a tyranny (Somewhat like George Washington), not a kid joining a terrorist group and overthrowing a government (Somewhat like Adolf Hitler.)
Act of Valor was made almost souly, by Navy Seals. The only hollywood influence on it was for the soundtrack.
As for James Cameron, he remade Pocahontas with giant smurfs. But that movie portrays my point pretty well. We used to get movies like Patriot, movies that portray American values. Not we get things like Avatar, where the government, or businesses are corrupt and the (For lack of a better term) "barbarians" are the good guys.
Re: Han shot first
Simon Pegg is a Brit who starred in Shawn of the Dead and Hot Fuzz. Recently, he was the artist dude in Paul (his character's name escapes me at the moment.)
As I understand it, much of Act of Valor was shot by a hollywood director during live seals training exercises. They then went back and shot a story around those exercises with some of the seals playing the characters in the story.
Avatar can be seen as a propaganda film for the Na'vi, which is an interesting way of looking at things. I wouldn't call it a Pocahontas remake with giant blue surfs. John Smith didn't turn into an indian in that movie.
As for George raping ones childhood, I'm tired of hearing this. Just grow up already. If you were around when those movies came out, you'd be in your thirties by now! So Lucas changed his little stories, so what? Move on with your life man!

Re: Han shot first
Yeah, I have zero sympathy for the Raped my Childhood crew. He made three movies I liked and three I didn't (five if you count THX-1138 and American Graffitti). Big deal. I gained far much more joy from the original Star Wars than the I ever gained grief from the Prequels. George Lucas owes us nothing. I don't have to spend anymore money supporting his vision, but I don't want reparations.
