Cured

[filkertom]

I'd like to thank George Lucas.

George, you have completely cured me of a dread condition. I no longer feel compelled to give you money.

Revenge of the Sith comes out on DVD today. I couldn't give a shit. I am way more interested in the special edition of George Pal's War of the Worlds and Jake "The Snake" Roberts: Pick Your Poison than I ever will be in that sad, pathetic, overwrought special-effects fest you tried to pass off as epic space fantasy earlier this year.

I understand you want to (paraphrasing here) "get back to making small films again", or somesuch. Art films. Films that mean something, as if Star Wars -- sorry, Episode IV: A New Hope didn't mean something. I suppose I wish you well. But I don't think you'll be able to do it.

Because, if you had any in you, you've had twenty-eight fucking years to do so.

So, thanks, George. The money's a little tight, and you made it easier for me to Do The Right Thing.

OK, fair enough.
