through this entire ordeal is that the critics/reviewers do not care for Lucas/SW for many reasons. They don't understand the hoopla, the hype, the entertainment/escapism/fantasy element, etc. And they don't get "it", if you know the "it" I'm talking about. Every SW movie, except for Episode IV, goes the same way -- *Lucas movie goes into production, lots of hype, first reviews are "wow", then we get the same load of crap negative reviews on all the forums, the movie makes zillions, etc. Enough already! I think Micheal Coate summed it up the best -- enjoy 2 1/2 hours of entertainment, why don't you!By the way, the next SW movie will see a repeat of the above *.
ps. Glad your kid liked TBS. I've seen the movie twice and it is an emotion machine -- well written, acted and filmed (sincerely, no BS).
Follow Ups:
There is a cadre of reviewers who bash Lucas just for sake of bashing Lucas. Speaking as someone who admires his early work (I went to the theater to see the original 7 times in 77, the summer after I graduated from high school) I feel that his creative vision would be best served if he farmed out those areas in which he is weakest, to allow him to concentrate on the overall canvas. The Empire Strikes Back certainly wasn't harmed by having Lawrence Kasdan and Leigh Brackett help with the script, and Irwin Kirshner direct!
